THE TREASURY KEEPING EVEN
So far during the present fiscal
year the revenue keeps a little ahead
of the expenditures. At the end of
the first quarter a surplus of about
$2,000,000 is shown. Receipts for
the quarter have increased $17,000,
000 over the same period last year,
and expenditures have fallen off $45,
000,000. Customs are yielding from
$600,000 to $1,000,000 a day, and
internal revenue averages 81,000,000
a day. Both show an aggregate
gain for the month of $5,000,000
over September of last year. The
war department is spending an aver
age of $12,500,000 a month, and the
navv department $5,000,000. Last
month's statement of gold in the
treasury was 8245.000.000. The
September figures are $254,000,000.
This is a remarkably favorable ex
hibit. The army has been increased
from 27,000 men to 100,000. A
war is under ptosecution 7000 miles
away that will require the services
and transportation of 50,000 or CO,-
000 men. The navy is growing
steadily in battle-ships of the first-
class and other costly vessels. And
yet the government is more than
paying expenses.
When the treaty was under dis
cussion several senators insisted that
it would plunge the country enor
mously in debt. Senator Hoar
urged this view. Senator Caffery
was especially explicit. He esti
mated that the cost of holding the
Philippines would be $221,350,000 a
year. That is more than the present
entire expenditure on the army and
navy, and we should not disband
either if the islands were surrendered.
Senator Caffery declared that "our
imperial budget for the year ending
June 30, 1900, even as stated by
Secretary Gage, is appalling enough.
But I am confident that he under
estimates the expenditures of that
year if tho imperial policy is to be
carried out." Well, the end of the
first quarter of that year is at hand,
and there is a surplus of $2,000,000.
Secretary Gage's estimate runs over, j
not under. A vast deal of foolish-'
ness was talked by senators who
fought the treaty. Their predictions
and figures are on n par witu tneir
patriotism.
In the Outlook the eminent Cale
donian lecturer nnd novelist, whose
pseudonym is Ian Maclarcn, writes
of "The Shadow on American Life,"
said shadow being "(he tendency to
give an undue place to the value
aud influence of wealth." Coming
from a gentleman who has visited
this country for the purpose of
adding to his wealth, ibe New York
Sun thinks this charge has much
wore of humor than we should have
iiupMted q in author.
The Denooratio way of ending a
war is to wait until the ncsft national
convention is called, nml then fight
it out in the committee on resolution?.
From the detailed report it does
not appear that Admiral Schley
missed an of the bouquets that were
intended for him during tho festivi
ties in New York.
