THERE WILL BE NO DEFICIT THE PRESENT FISCAL YEAR, Money to It Is Editors Wilson Tariff Meet Expenses Raises Enough of Government Now In Order For Republican to Denounce Democratic Cheeseparing. “Unless something very unexpected happens, '’ writes Worthington C. Ford to Bradstreet's, ‘there will be no deficit in the national revenues in the year end- ing June 80, 1806." Mr. Ford is the first real statistician the treasury depart- ment has ever had. Hitherto that office was a sort of harbor of refuge for some faithful worker in the parties amid the lower ranks. Figures were grouped in bald reports in a perfunctory way, as if the felt that he must make some kind of a showing of work to justify his office to the public that paid him a salary, but that, since be had the office for work already done, as little labor as possible should be per formed by him. But Mr. Ford brings to his office the training and the instinct of the statistician, He goes to his work con amore, and he has established among all students of trade movements a repu- tation for accuracy that gives his state ment, quoted above, a credit independ ent of the reasons on which he and with which he follows and supports his assertion. The two chief sources of federal reve- nue are sugar duties and internal taxes, Two factors may affect the sugar reve- nue, a decrease in the domestic supply owing to the withdrawal of bounties, and an increase in price, resulting in a diminished consumption. Making allow ance for possible fluctuation, he expects an importation of at least 8,000,000,- 000,000 pounds, which, if the import price remains the same—below 2 cents —will produce a revenue of $21,000, 000. The cust ‘statistician’ bases ns, aside from sugar, show an increase. The first four months if the new flscal year show a customs revenue as large as was that of the same period in 1892, the total, omit- ting sugar, was $177,000,000, ‘With nfidence therefore, '’ he says, ‘I place the cust for 1500 at $100,000,000 Turning to the other source of income, the internal reven taxes, especially those on Mr Ford does not expect much in a from the advance of the tax on distilled spirits. Sufficient time has not when SOme © 8 revenue ‘ lapsed to enable a correct measurement of the effects of that increase to be made. The present fact is that the receipts are not what they were under the old tax. If legislation hostile to use of liquor does not more than usual, he ex pects an income of $85,000,000 that source, while the taxes from 1 interfere mented liquor and tobacco will but little. The revenue from these two with the $16,000,000 from in- cidentals, will bring the receipts up to $351,000,000, a sum that will be ample for the normal expenditures of the gov The ""normal’’ I 1 before the Fifty first began the experiment of decreasing rev- increasing the discourage its su urth, from attempt ernment expends expenditure, repetition. ndifferent to the blican editors who trained their voices in denuncia the ‘tariff for deficit only," in nstration that it will, with the 1 4 ~ le rd 1s cruelly u f those Reg other taxes, provide a sufficient revenue. There seems nothing left for them to do now but to denounce the cheeseparing policy that proposes to make this some thing less than ‘‘a billion dollar'’ coun- try, and to insist that the magnificent lo of expenditures inaugurated by the (ress presided over by Mr. Reed and by Mr shall be maintained in the *‘in- f r and m ; in its economies, rality latx r will be leficit of t year or 80 in the revenues of the the statement of treasury for the month of is omitted in nal or.

He was forced to resign his chairmanship in 1892 because his record and political methods were a bigger load than the Republican party could safely carry, and he is the same Quay now that he was then, as his management of the re- cent campaign in Pennsylvania proves, He stands in the popular estimation to day, even more clearly than before, os the type of tho unscrupulous wire puller and politician, and the Republican rty will commit itself to his methods f he becomes manager of its campaign ~Springfleld Republican. Why Hastings May Not Fight, Governor Hastings may not make a fight against Quay for a place on the Republican national delegation from Pennsylvania, for the reason, according to the Harrisburg correspondent of the.
