To morrow Is the governmental new year's day, bo fixed by act o con Kress passed August 26, 1842, when the fiscal year began to be reckoned from July 1. . At half past four o'clock this afternoon Uncle Sam's V- bookkeepers win close the accounts for the fiscal year, 1908, and open new ledgers for the fiscal year, 1909. Balances will not be actually struck, however, for weekB.

Five years later the current expenses of the ov ernment, exclusive ..ot-ha Interest on the publio debt, aggregated" M5B.0OO. To meet the expense of the government for the fiscal year, 1908. congress ap propriated upwards of $882,000,000. It was estimated at the beginning of the year that the receipts from all sources would totaL something more than $844, 000.000. - - . These calculations provided for a sur plus of $42,000,000 In the revenue for. the current fiscal year, but it remains to be aeen whether or not the books will dlBclobtf such a happy state of affairs. Heginnlng with the financial stringency that developed early last fall, there was a decline in the customs and internal revenue receipts which - continued throughout the remainder of the fiscal year. A. considerable deficit la now ap parent. " - ' - , ( SednoUoa of Revenue.' "A. fact in connection with the close ,. ( the current fiscal ybar that will probably give comfort to the prohlbl ttrvnisti in that one of the largest Items In the reduction of the revenues of the ' frovernment la In receipts from the ta on distilled spirit!. The extent of the falling off from this source cannot be accurately tatei prior to the appear ance of the official report, but from data now made public it. ia evident that the receipts from distilled spirits will ehow a loss of approximately $20,000, 000 aa compared with the fiscal year 190T., This will very mucn more man overcome the -gain made by distilled tnlritu In the tire-rious fiscal Tear, when . the receipts showed) an increase of up-4 wards or iiz.uiw.ouu, or a consumption of more than 11,000.000 gallons in ex cess of the withdrawals during the fis cal year 1908.' one feature. However, of the current year's collections from distilled spirits, calculated to be more cr less disquieting to tn ironiDiuon 1st, Is, despite this evident reduction In the consumption of ardent spirits, the figures now available Indicate an In crease ot 2,500 retail dealers in intoxi cating liouors. ' The falling off In the receipts from distilled spirits is due to three causes. the depression in business following the monetary stringency which began last fall, the use of grain alcohol, free of tax. In the arts and Industries, and the passage of prohibitory laws. The loss to the revenue, however, by reason of the local option laws Is not as great as popularly supposed. Careful analysis of governmental statistics plainly indicates -' that while the consumption of distilled spirits, taking the country as a whole. is increasing, the per capita consumption is steadily decreasing Tne natural in crease In. the population and the conse quent opening up of new territory where : itie saioon is permuted, is at present outstripping tne advance or tne temper : ance wave.- . ., -. .- - Substantial Increases. On the other hand, the official report firomises to show a substantial increase n the receipts from taxes on fermented liquors, under' which heading beer Is largely predominant. This increase, ac cording to the figures now public, should A Woman's Bacls Eas many aches and pains caused bi weaknesses and falling, or other displace ment, of the pelvic organs.

This, taken In connection with the fact that the receipts from cigarettes, oleomar garine and adulterated butter also ahow a substantial Increase, attain emphasize the truth of the statement that nistory Is in the habit of repeating Itself. With the enrance of "tlalit monev." the clos ln down of mills, the reduction of for tunes, and a lull in the prosperity of the "spenders," the appetites that formerly red on nign-ciass orinus, zancy cigars and ''grade 1" creamery butter, turned to beer, cigarettes and oleomargarine. In times of great and general prosperity the trick is reversed, and the revenues plainly reflect It , A notable innovation, from a revenue standpoint, and one which to some ex tent may account for the Increased re ceipts tfrom the tax on fermented liquor, was Introduced during the fis cal year Just closing, almost entirety ai result of the activities of the Prohl bltlonlsta This Is a substance beoom ing officially and popularly known as "Temperance Beer." It is the offspring or tne aemana ana aesire ror a bever age to be sold In the prohibition local' itiea that will at one and the same time eacape the federal special tax or government license and avoid prose cution in the state courts for violating tne local option taws. ., ' - Temperance Beer. y "This '"temperance beer" masquerades under various names, such as "near-to- beer. and other suggestive titles. The scheme, has proved quite successful as a money-maker, and those citizens in the prohibition communities who con tinue to hanker-after "the cup that cheers" have been able In some meas ure to satisfy their appetites through the use of this product Some peculiar situations, from a fiscal standpoint, have resulted from the manufacture and sale of this so-called "temperance beer." . . - It has been held In certain prohibi tion localities that beverages containing lesa than t per cent of alcohol are non lntoxioatlng, and that they, therefore, can be sold without violating the local option laws; hence. In some places, per sons are paying the federal tax as wholesale dealers In malt liquors and handling lager beer with a slightly alcoholic content in the face of local laws passed for the nurpose of driving out all such supposedly evil substances. In other localities the courts have held practically that any beverage which subiecta the dealer to the federal soe- clal tax cannot be sold .under the local option laws Inflicting penalties for the sale of Intoxicating liquors. Here again the "temperance beer" folks have found relief. It has been held by the Internal revenue bureau that a fermented liouor containing less than one-half of one per cent or alcoiioi may ne sola tv a person not holding a special tax stamp as a wholesale or retail dealer la malt liquors. . ' - i Muy ioi snipment. Borne breweries.-' therefore, are rro-! ducing beverages through the regular processes of manufacturing fermented liquors upon which they pay the gov ernment tax or li cer barrel, after which, by1 methods of evaporation, the alcoholic content ie reduced to lesa than one-half of one per cent by volume,- and the liquor is tnen ready ror snipment to the 1 merchant In the prohibition town,, with all legal requirements ful filled, and yet with the most remark able physical resemblance to lager beer, in color, form and odor, and with the posslDie additional advantage mat tne consumer may do oompenea to increase the dose in order to reach the proper SPOl. :- One of the mysterious' Items of reve nue is the sum annually collected on snuff, which bears the same tax aa that levied on tobacco 6 cents per pound. It Is true that the recelDts for thla -fiscal year will show a slight decrease, but no more than a sympathetic reduc tion In keeping with the general decline in the revenues. It Is very likely that the official report, judging from data just made public, will show a produc tion of 25,000,000 pounds of snuff dur ing the 12 months ending today. Where this snuff goes, who uses it, and why, nobodv knows, unless It be the -large manufacturers In close1 touch with the trade. One would ,'buppose that with the passing of the snuff-box, now only a memory, and the advance of civiliza tion in those sections where diDDinx Is, or was. Indulged In, the production of snuff would rapidly diminish. On the contrary, it shows a healthy and vigorous growth. Ten years ago 13,000, 000 pounds were taxpaid; last year twice that amount was produced. Pos sibly a great deal of it Is exported, apparent Deficit Notwithstanding the apparent deficit In the receipts from the Internal reve nue taxes on tobacco and tobacco prod ucts, generally speaking, It Is evident that tne cigarette liablt Is still firmly intrenched so much bo that in the face of the fact that the consumption of clffara and smoking and chewing to bacco has decreased during the fiscal year just closing, the Income from cigarettes of all grades shows an in crease. During the fiscal year 1907, In round numbers, 6,200,000,000 cigarettes were taxpaiil in the United States. This was an increase of a trifle like 100,000, dOO over the year 1806, and taking the last monthly statement IsHued by the internal revenue bureau as a basis, the fiscal year 1903 will show the same steady Krowth. The spread or tne cigarette hah t is ; the more notable when it Is remem bered that stringent laws prohibiting the sale of cigarettes or cigarette ma-1 terials have been enacted in some states and active crusades made in many localities by organizations an tagonistic to the use of the need In this form, and also that thousands of ! swaggering- youths who formerly smoked the cigarette now rjarade the eampua with pipes projecting at the proper angle from tholr lips. These are only a few of the many varied things with which Uncle Bam s bookkeepers have to do. When the books close at half-past four this after noon it will mean a million accounts to be balanced, .hundreds of thousands of reports to be made, a thousand books to be Drlnted all In the everyday work of the government, and all unheeded by the vast majority of Americans.
