consider himself in particularly
comfortable position either. His poll
tics in the 1886 election will be di-
rectly affected by signs pointing to a
betterment in his prospects or to an
increase in the Federal levy on him.
The announcement late this week that
the administration is starting cam
paign to pare down the 1887 budget
is welcome reaction to the growing
protest against unreasonable expendi-
lures
But, while the Federal budget may
be reduced, it may be found neces-
sary to increase those of States and
municipalities on which the respon-
sibility for relief is about to be placed.
1t is not possible to disband at once
an army of 100000 or more unem-
ployed, even though percentage of
this number may be found self-sup-
porting when the dole is denied them.
If the financial aid compelled by cir
cumstances does not come from one
pocket. it will have to be drawn from
another.

NUDE DANCES.

MAZATLAND. Sinaloa, Mex,
Sept. IL N.SD.-Agreeing with
church leaders that an American
revue which is completing q tour
of Mexico presented indecent
Dances" John w. Sapp, American
impresario in Mexico City, told
priests here today the show was
not typical of musical productions
in the United States. Sapp
booked the revue into this coun-
try. He said:
"Nude dances have no place
in American productions. They
should never have been pre-
sented in Mexico. The cOmapny
was comprised largely of anna
teurs. Professionals would have
been more careful"
Following the showing of the
revue there. Gaudalajara Catho-
lies placed ban on all American
musical productions. And other
religious groups throughout the
country are considering similar
actions. The storm has centered
about Miss Sidney Dell, of Los
Angeles. whose fan and gardenia
dances drew many protests.
