IN 4 PREOlcAMENT

There Is a present deficit in the
United States Treasury of $4,000, Geo,
and still mounting, The ground plan
for this defency was outlined bv the
Underwood bill, which called for the
Sl00. 00O, 600 "war tax" But this $50,
coo, GEO promises to be s0eNed to
@l21, 00o. 0o9 by the end oi the present
fiscal year, June 50. The smoJhericg
of the ship purchasing bill has elimuat-
ed the threatened danger OF an extra
session of Congress, but how about the
deficit in revenues that is pihng up?
Unless a miracle happens, 1t looks very
much like an extra session would have
to be convened to provide for another
revenue measure, or the Treasury will
be put to the alternative Of bond issue,
Some of the reasons for this def
cheney are found IN the ineffective
emergency revenue tax, which is not
coming up to expectations as pro-
ducer; the income tax falling below
estimates and the Inordinate increase
in the expenses of government unCer
Democratic management. The total
deficiency on June 80 is figured out
from the latest Treasury statement,
which shows that on the years business
up to date the excess of ordinary dis
bursements over receipts is S82. $50, 60S.
This does not include payments on ac-
count of the Panama Canal. Taking
these items into consideration, the
Treasury statement issued under the
direction of Secretary McAdoo indicates
that the present deficit totals SOL, 1885,
660. But this does not tell the whole
story. The Postoffice Department is
just about $40, 600, 0O0 shy on the year.
business, thus bringing the deficit up to
grand total of more than S12l 600, 600.
Isn't it strange, with these facts
staring him in the face, the President
should have insisted on spending S40,-
900, 600 in shipping speculation, in
which the government stood to be
looser? Can anyone see into the eco
nomic mind of the administration and
discover any excuse for the protligate
waste that has been going on, and is
still going on? From a business point
of view it is condemned from every
angle. And this is the administration
that professed to know all about busi-
ness, and affected to tell business men
they were not conducting their enter
prises correctly. AS a competent critic
has observed: Washington has afforded
many examples of how not to deal with
government finances, but perhaps none
ever surpassed the present Congress,
which took Office on a promise of
economy, and has increased expenses
while running up deficit.

DEMOCRATIC FUR WILL FLY

The Belair Times remarks that: This

politics. Blair Lee has announced his
candidacy for Governor and Emerson
Harrington, who is supposed to be the
candidate Senator Smith and his friends
want has also entered the ring and the
result will definitely settle the question
as to whether Senator Smith or Senator
Lee will be the real leader of Maryland
Democracy. 1t will be a bruising fight
and no matter which side wins, the
Republicans will have a fine chance to
again carry the State. Governor
Goldsborough has given a splendid ad-
ministration of the affairs of the State,
and this record will be a big asset to
whoever is the Republican standard
bearer. Mayor Preston is expected to
be renomlnated for mayor of Baltimore.
His friends claim that he is stronger
this year than he was four years ago.
This is denied by the Republicans
although the News and the American
are both supporting him this year while
they opposed him four years ago. The
ruling of the Court of Appeals declar-
ing James McEvoy ineligible because

Oakland owes debt to the Civic Club
1t can never pay. The ladies compos-
ing this club are ever ready to take
hold of anything for the betterment of
this city. Their good work is seen
everywhere. At the cemetery, in the
cleaning up of the town, at the county
fair, the water fountain, raising money
tor this and for that good purpose,
and just last Tuesday through their
efforts the sum of $38 90 was raised to
extend the public school term of Oak
land to nine months. The extension of
the school term means much to the
school children of the city. A city the
size of Oakland should have not less
than nine months school term. To
those persons who subscribed to this
fund, to the Civic Club. to the school
board and its efficient secretary Oak
land is grateful. This advance step is
to our credit Now, that we have a
heightened school term, it should never
again be reduced to seven or eight
months.
