According te the last monthly state rnent of tlie state treasurer there was at that time, Oatebc.r 1, in the general fund $1,760,603.41. The balances in this fund have net been much less than that for seme time. Since December 1, ISS'J, they have run as fellows : December 1. 1882, $1,400,721.16 ; January 1, 1SSII, $1,333,402 -12 ; February 1, 1833, $1 73S, 331.25; March 1, 1883. $2,430,007.82; April 1, 18S3, $2,735,003.40; May 1, 1SS3, $2,074,200.02; June 1, 18S3,$2,G97,003 OS; July 1. 18S3, $1,0S0,2S0 11 ; August 1, 1883, $2,599,403.08. The monthly bal ances In the sinking fund during the Bametlme have been as follews: Decern bar 1, 1882, $2,017,073.01 ; January 1, 1883, $2,071,693 50; February, 1. ISS, $2,870.013.81 ; March 1, 1SS3, $2.050. 1'.s. 31 ; April 1, 1S33, $2 03S 001 31 ; May 1, 18S3, $2 702,823 77 ; June I, ls33, $2, 700,011.39; July 1, 1833, S2,7M,Otl.30 ; August 1, 18S3, $2,253,201.8!), Thus it nppsars that almost continually the state treasury management has had four million delhiM within its manipulation ; and this tee, despite the pl.ilu directions of the constitution and the 3tatute. The constitution of the commonwealth says :" The moneys. of the state, ever and abeve the necessary reserve, shall be U38d in the payment of the debt of the state, either directly or through the sinking fund, and (Iu mw, tin sinkiny fund shall never be innstaliii leaned upon the security f anijthhvi. except beni of the United States or f thi Mate And yet there are te-day ever two millions of the sinking fund meueys leaned out te the banks of the state upon no security whatever. The state treasurer and auditor gen eral refuse te iuterin even senators where these moneys are deposited, and it 13 absolutely certain thai no security is given for them nor any profit te the state earned by them. Further, the act of 1ST I provides that "whenever it shall appear en the llrst business day of January, April, July and October of each and every year, that the balance in the hands of the state treasurer, from sources of general reve nue, npartfrem the amounts payable te the sinking fund shall exceed $500,000 such sum in excess thereof shall be car ried te account of the sinking fuud. New, from the figures above given it is plain that aluce Dec. 1, 1SS2, there has never li sen ten tlun $X),000 and some times as much as $2,000,000, which should be carried te the sinking fund account, though It has never been se transferred for reasons which, whatever they were, are contrary te the law. All in all, about four million dollars sometimes as much a3 fiveutida half inllllm dollars which Unlaw directed te ba Invested in giverutusnt spcurities. be that the state is protected from risk and Its funds earn interest, have been cirrled ulenx as loins te the banks favored by the state treasurer. The Republicans propose te continue this system by electing Liviey ll-s is new cashier of the treasury and is largely re30Dn3lble for its management. He is te ba continued for the same purpose. Mr. Wolfe, who m vie the plucky single handed Qght ngalnst the treasury rim; of his party in ISsi, says that " Llvsey is simply the creature of Chris. M ig'e, and if elected, M.igee will virtually bs trea?. ureref the commonwealth." Fer that reason Mr. Wolfe thinks he ought te be beaten. In view of the stupendous figures we have quoted te show hew shamefully the state treasury is mismanaged, we in cline te think a majority of the people will imee with him. It seem3 that the adage " a prophet is net without honor save iu his own coun try," upplles te that distinguished Repub. lican representative of H iy state wisdom, Hen. Gee. Frlsble Hear. It Is an old and laudable custom at Republican headquar ters in that commonwealth that claims Jehn L Sulllvau as one of its foremost citizens, te allow visitors from the out lying districts te select speakers whom there is a general desire te hear In their localities. Among the two or three linn dred available stump orators, a large per centage have been given dates, out no one lias yet expressed an overweening desire te hear Senater Hear. This deci sien shows that Massachusetts Republi cans have mere than the ordinary amount of political acumen. And when the fame of their discreet conduct gets nbread, it will de much te elfset the growing belief that the Hay state has lest its Athenian culture te become the home of the ball te3ser and the prize fighter. Spain continues te be vociferous m her demands that Franc i ah ill make further apology te her for tlie Insult which King Alfonse received from the cemaillc of I'.iris. The Spaniards want an elllcial publication et the king's reply te President Grevy'a apology, which they may get. This whole affair has a rather childish and unreasonable nppearnuce. The unchecked impatience of a Parisian mob Is well known, aud the hut. temper of the Spaniards has ever been equally apparent, and although the young king did receive very unfavorable conduct while in Paris it would ba thought that Spain could muster enough sensu te be satisfied with the reparation that litis been made. Mayhap Spain would net be se perslstent in her demauds for satisfac tion if she did net sce Germany's tuenae. lug attitude towards thu French repub. lie. Tnu American hog has at length been considered worthy of an Investigation, like- tiny ether institution of this free land. The president has declded te ap point a commission te thoroughly scru tinize the curing of perk in this country, for several purposes ingeneral, uud of refuting the assertions of foreign gev. ernments in particular. Old Prince Hhmurck has for a geed while been dividing Ills attention between belllgcr ent states and alleged diseased hogs, and lias net hesitated te emphatically assert that nobody should cat American perk. The stem chanceller has been rather successful la his governmental intrigues, but It somehow leeks ns if he inlhi net find much glory in his position ns an enemy te the American pig. la Ohie and Iowa te day the result of the elections will largely determine the future of legislative prohibition as a p lltical m-H'tmiQiit in this country. In Maine the institution holds its own, des pite the prevalent popular opinion that It works no go )d m iral results : In Kan s.is the popular verdict en the subject was reversed the llrst year after prehl bltien had besn tried. If it succeeds In both states te- lay the anti-license move ment wdl sWcJien;vird . is it fails in b)th It will receive a fatal check . If it cirrit's Iowa and is lest in Ohie, as s'eius likely, It will be a drawn battle. A iouitK-re.Nnr.NTof the Pittsburg Di.Liieh , who has held an interview with the " appointment clerk " at Washington, discloses the fact that Den Cameren m.tke3 the Republican selections of federal appointments in eighteen of the congressional districts in this state, including I.inc.ister. This is tut fair treatment of Mr. Smith, and he should insist en applying a dose of civil service reform te the " appointment clerk."

These are timely words in tha present canvass in this state wuore tne q lestien el person ti illness is mero te be oiustderod thau thu diversity of pirty pnaeiples. If oaeh voter could b.uug lumsslf te beheve that the interests of th" state were as important a his own business interests, there would be less blind following of leaders and mere intel llgeut discrimination iu voting. Ne em. ployer would think of retaining in his service au empleye who persistently vie lated his plain instructions. Vet this is precisely what the present auditor general auil state treasurer are deiug when they hinder the enforcemaut of the Humes act. The election of Niles and Livsey will per petuate these methods, while the success of Taggart uud Powell means batter care el the state's -uoneys. The treasury ring must go.
