- ■

Tbs reported condition of the Treasury to-day Is a confirmation of tbs position taken by the Democracy la tfae political campaigns of 1807 and ML It was ol aim-

ed by tbs representatives of the Demo-

cratic i

I party, In tbs political campaigns of those years, that with rigid economy and retrenchment in the management of our public affairs, the surplus revenues, with tbs substitution of grtsnbnsbs tor t tonal bank notes, would bo ample, If applied In the pevoieot of the public debt, or rather ita redemption at tha option of tbo Government, to wipe oat the debt, enormous so It was, In e few years. It Is oow seen, with even a very little economy and retrenchment, that the present administration, sines Its at slon to power, baa bean able to apply a fsw millions, not to tbs redemption of the bonds, but to the purchase of them as tha market rates, paying a largo pramlnm, Instead of redeeming tbem, ee it bad the right te do, at tbeir Due value. It la rumored that the Secretary of the Treasury hoe been offered a loan of three hundred millions, by German capitalists, at flvs par cant, interest. This tbs Secretary declines, because he has no authority to make the negotiation. Besides, It Is bis opinion that the Government will be able, In a abort time, so rapidly Is its credit strengthening, to borrow money at four and abalf per cent., or less, and thus take up the fi-ao bonds, or fnod tbo debt at th|t rale of Interest. It Is evident, even to the Radical floaoclera, that there mast be a change In the financial policy, far the present menage men t Is worblag serious injary to tbs prosperity of the country. Ac long as the present rates of Interest on the public debt Is continued, with exemption from taxation, the desirableness of the investment wilt attract the surplus capital of tbo country >o the detriment of all Industrial and commercial pursuits. The high price Ibat the Government is paying for the nae of money, or interest upon lOSna, is seriously felt throughout the West and Sentb, as It prevents the investment of sarploa capital In the enteprissa that weald be calculated to add to tbe prosperity and progress of those sections of tbo country. And this difflomltv, or dloSdvaotege, la not confined to the West and Booth. Tbe high Interest that tha Government Is psylag attracts tbe surplus capital of the Baft. , It la found difflonlt to tndaoe the Investment of capital In msonfactoring trading enterprises in Indianapolis and other Western eitlsa, With all the advailtagiS that it promisee, because tbe Government steps in sea competitor and outbids privet* enterprise by the superior considerations it offers. Of course tbe higher the Interest the greater the burden upon tbe tax paver, and consequently tbe more tempting tbe Investssent in bonds, because they are exempt from tbo dens to which other property Is sabieot If the bonds wars all bold by our own ottiasns, the affect of the administration policy would Indifferent j but as a large amount of tbs bonds areheld abroad, and

they are rapidly being bought by foreign- justify era, tbe drain upon the resources of the "optale

country is tbs more keenly felt, as (bo interest money Is taken away, J^L Tha people can now appreciate^ from the little that la dons toward diminishing the puMlc debt, conceding all that Mr. BotrrwaLt, claims, what might have bean accompllabed if Democratic policy bed i prevaOsd in the administration of tbe Government. If tbe litti* that he* been dona IS a cans* of exultation by the Redl4 eel press, bow great would be tha rejoicing of tha people now if, tborongh retrenchment end economy bad characterised the ooodoct of pnblie aftslre In every department of tbo pnMte service. If that policy bed been inaugnrsted at tbe close of the rebellion, bythie time the poblle burdens would hove been largely reduced, for enough baa been wasted in the past four years hy extravagance and corruption to equal at ■ least one-half tha present enormous indebtedness. ftnefi ere the fruits of Rsdl*
