The republic of the United Stated is becoming the most recklessly spendthrift government on the earth. The war-tariff defenders are in great glee over the discovery that the extravagance of congress is likely to exhaust the current year’s surplus within $18,000,000. “There is no need for tax reduction,” they cry, “this congress has spent this year’s surplus;"' the next congress can spend next year’s surplus— away with the Mills bill.” Do th«-people know what this means? k I It means that the appropriations for the current year, made and esti mated, amount to the enormous sum of $428,000,000. It means that the politicians are willing and able to spend all the money that the people will pay in taxes—even to the extent of $100,000,000 a year in excess of the legitimate needs of the government. And it means that this purpose of expenditure is the seized policy In 1860, with a population of 31,- 000,000, the total expenses of the government, including interest, were $63,000,000, or $2 per capita. In 1887, ¿with 60,000,000 population, the threatened appropriations are $428,000,000, or $7 per capita. The population lias barely doubled. The expenses have increased almost sevenfold. — The “condition that confronts us” is national bankruptcy if this reck less extravagance be not stopped. Over-protection ereates a surplus. The surplus incites extravagance. Extravagance'will lead to ruin. If the voters do not wish to adopt ex travagance as the national policy let them decree again that the war taxes must be reduced.— New York Wort DISCONTINUING A PAPER. SUMPTION CONTAGIOUS.

He is hideous. His hands-and hairless face are incrust^d with scale-like blothes of reddish-brown. The face shows most distinctly the ravages of the horrible disease.

These scales slight ly change color frorf time to time. There is no known remedy for leprosy. It has for all time defied the efforts of physicians. But one important discovery has been made of late years, and that is that the disease is contagious, and is not hereditary, as generally supposed. The germ of the disease is known to exist, and animals have been in- i oculated, afterwards showing un- mistakabie signs of the'malady, Still no cute has been discovered,' or -everra rwiedy-toaltevffftazth"6"— leper’s suffering. Leprosy is a slow disease, and Johnson may live for even fifteen years. There ar^ two forms of the disease—viz., black leprosy and white leprosy. In the former the Beales are dark and in the latter perfectly white. Johnson is suffering from the former. The leprosy of the'ancient Jews con sisted of shiny smooth blotches on . which the hair turned white and silky, and the skin and muscular flesh lost their sensibility. It was incurable. It was not until about the year 900 A. D. that the black leprosy appeared. In time the toes and fingers drop off, and when the eating process reaches the vitals death ensues.— Chicago Herald. -V-* < <r HOW A LEPER LOOKS. J I
