TREASURY deficit Tae Indianapolis News, a republican newspaper, says: “We nowhave the story of the treasure's operations for August, and it shows that the government continued to ; live beyond its inoome. The deficit for the month amounts to #6,324,212. Tnat for Jaly was over #17.030,060 so that the total shortage for the year so far is #23,750.941. Compar- 1 ing the figures for last month with ( th jse for August, 1903. it appears i

From this punt of view the disappearance of the deficit through an increase of revenue — the expenditures remaining the same—would not greatly help. What is needed is the practice of a rather severe economv, and a realization on the pirt of those charged with the administration of the government that there is a limit—if not to the wonderful ability of the American people to pay taxes— at least one beyond which the government shoud not go in imposing txaes and incurring obligations.” The democratic campaign in Adams county will end with a grand rally in this city on Saturday. November 5. Hon. J. A M Adair will open the ball at democratic headquarters'Friday evening. Mr Adair is one of the favorite sons, is a speak- 1 er wh 1 eloquently says something 1 and upon this occasion will mak-

an interesting political address. The work of this campiign should not rest alone with the speakers. Every democrat in the county has his part to do. and should do it. We all should work to the end th it ev ry dem loratlc voter is enthused and ready to deposit his billot for the supremacy of the democracy. IN SESSION I Presbytery Meets in This City R-v.

Holtbc-LFe Drug Co., THE AUGUST DEFICIT. — Commenting on the August treasury report the Indianapolis News finds much to be criticised and declares that it is time to retrench. In a leading editorial it says: "We now have the story of the treasury’s operations for August, and it shows ihat the government con- i Unues to live beyond its income. The 1 deficit for the month amounts to 1 <6.342.212. That for July was over lIT.iX'O.OOO. so that the total shortage for the year so far is $23,750,941.

The total receipts were $44,903,390. The | expenditures for the month were $51,242,603. We have lost about $5,000,000 in revenue and increased our expenditures oy something over $9,000,000. "There is. of course, nothing new to be said about this condition of affairs, for by this time the people are I tolerably familiar with it, and no I doubt appreciate its significance. Oir only purpose is to emphasize the fact | that this inadequacy of revenues to meet expenses has come to pass under the operation of the Dingley tariff.! which we hare been taught to believe was ’he perfection of human legislation.

The government is sp-;Lul:.2 too nr:cti of the penpie s money. We all want and are willing to pay for an efficient and adequate army and navy. But $24,000,000 in a sir.gle month for these objects seems to be coming it pretty strong. From this point of view the disappearance of the deficit through on increase of revenue—the expenditures remaining the same—would not greatly help.

Here is what he said In hfs book. “Ranch Life and Hunting Trail": "They are much better fellows and pleasanter companions than small farmers or agricultural laborers: nor are the mechanics and workmen of a great city to be mentioned in the same breath.” Congressman C B. Lands says in his Delphi Journal that there is no Issue between the iwo parties. That Is a concession that amounts practically to a gut render, for when it comes to a choice between the men representing the two parties, there is such a decided conviction in the public mind favoraUe to Judge Parker that it is reasoaal le to presume that his election will come with an overwhelming majority.—Plymouth Democrat. Demoerets will understand that the wild-eyed sfements in the Indiananolis News, the Chicago Chronicle and otter Republican papers, to the effect that there Is dissension in the Democratic party and dissatisfaction with the a !r.!-,trst!on of National Chasr M man Taggart are creattirea of the Imagination wholly. The party is united* aggressire and Is going to win. That is where the shoe pinches the Republican organs.
