As soon as the ""Democratic administration came . .Into power in 1913 tha Demo ctatic Congress began to increase v 'appropriations and jump taxes, ' Each succeeding year the Demo cratic Congress voted vastly more appropriations for the rapidly increasing routine expen xlitures of the Democratic ad ministration. . Even those increases were not .. sufficient to meet the mounting expenses under the Wilson regime - in times of peace. In the spring of 1916 the Democratic Congress appropriated more money for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1916 than ever before voted for thed " routine expenditures of the gov- , ernment. On the heels or these regular appropriation bills, which WERE THE GREATEST EVER KNOWN IN THE HISTORY OF THE GOVERN MENT UP TO THAT TIME IN TIMES OP peace, the Democratic House . Ways and Means Committee un r der the leadership of Representa tive Kitchin, of North Carolina, on July 5,- 1916, introduced a special revenue bill which called for $200,000,OQQ additional taxes. t . - rTmrAtfwt oKiYfxoJnirisr .

They cannqt be repudi ted. Nomatterhow profligate and unneceasary were the ex penditures, the people must pay the bills Incunred by the Demo cratic administration. 1 In this, history repeats itself. Democratic administions always incur debts but never pay them. It has been truthfuily stated that "economy after a Democratic ad ministration is not a theory; it is a necessity.'' K Republicans are always called on to devise ways arid means of reducing the debts which have been incurred by De mocratic administrations and of reducing the profligate expendi tures which have become a prac tice under1 Democratic regime. REPUBLICAN ADMINISTRATION PRACTICED ECONOMY AND10W ERED TAXES $800,000,000 FIRST YEAR The situation confronting the Republican administrationwhen it came into power Marchji, 1621, was no exception to this rule.' It found the people burdened with a debt of $24,000,000,000 and the routine operating expenses of the government higher than ever known in the history of the Unit ed States. This was necessarily accompanied by the most burden some taxes that the American people had ever experienced. The Republican administration set about to reduce " the taxes. The first step wss &, radical re duction in routine public expendi tureswbichwaa . acooaiplished by the inauguration of an eco nomy program both in the exe cutive departments of the gov ernment and in the appropriations authorized - by Congress, this economy enabled the Republican Congres8 .in its special session in the summer of 1921 to enact a revenue law which reduced pub lic taxes oyer $800,000,000. The outstanding features of "this new tax law were: ; . : ' . ' . " Repeal of all taxes on freight express and parcel post. Repeal of all taxes on passenger tickets. Repeal of all so-called "nui sance" taxes. Repeal of all so-called luxury or commodity taxes. Repeal of all the excess profits taxes. Reduction of the minimum sur tax rate from 65 to 50 per cent Repeal of taxes on insurance premiums and dues 1 to fraternal orders- wcw Repeal ef taxes on musicial in-' struments, sporting goods and household furniture. ; Increase of exemptions in the income tax applying to all heads of families with a salary or wage income of less than $5,000 a year. We must hre resolve that through oar effort expenses wilt be kept -' within income. ; There mast be utmosf eeouomy. There save been established those busi-. ness priaeiples aud , procedures which or capable of bringing farter economy during Jhe cur rent year, and I look to the Gov ernment' . executive for still closer scrutiny of their activities and attendant expenditures, Th'e business head of the Gov ernment does not and cannot contemplate or expect that the exendClnre this year t wilt ex ceed incorhe : "Oar country i one of the few in the wort J which is.now paying its way as it goes, and I must re gard with disfavor any tendency to interfere with this', condition or to indrease taxes."

Highlights 0! MoAey Saving By Republican During the first, year s all the departments of government were in exclusive control of the He publicans: The public debt was reduced J1.014,0$8,844. ' The public expenditures were reduced 1,?43,319,T89. This is the greatest reduction of public debt ahd public expendi tures any nation in the world has made since the armistice. The Republican Congress ap oronriated one third of a billion dollars less for ordinary expendi tures this year than were appro priated last year and over a bil lion dollars less than were appro priated two years ago. V ' : During, the; period ; (following tHe 1918 elections) the Republi cans had control of Congress while the Democrats still con trolled the executive departments theH' publican Congress reduced requests of Democratic execu tives for money in' the sum of $3,890,000,000, "Or more . than enough to run the government for the present fiscal year. : The Budget Bureau, the crea tion of which ' is the greatest piece of , constructive' business legislation of a generation, was created by an.act of this Repub lican Congress early after it con vened in epecial session April 1U 1C21. The Republican Cor.resaJ cr.: ;t;3 a d.r.i'ar budget law in t! 3 previous Ecr:!on only tD have it vetoed by President Wilson .- The fact that this Congress re duced .the estimates sent it by the Budget Bureau in the sum of $172,523,046, or more than seven per cent, proves it was not a spendthrift body. . The annual fixed charges as a result of he war are over $1, 675,000,000 more thantheywere prior to the war, which shows it is impossible ever to reduce pub lic expenditures to - a pre-war basis. . ADV. The Greatest Con fession Ever Made ... v . ...., In Marshall. There are many great confessions in this old world for -example,' its a great confession for a young fel low to make when he tells a young girl that, as far as he ,fs concerned she is. the only One in'all the world. Its a great confession when vboys jand girls tell ' their ' parents that they are pround ot tuern. its a great confession to own up to' a wrong and ask to- be forgiven. Yes, these and other like confessions are great no question about it at all. But none of them or all of them put together, can favorably- compare to the one that we shall take as our subject at the Baptist Church on Sunday morning... r ' , In considering this great theme we shall take a trip to the battle fields of France the bloody ones of the rr.st War. We "Shall also consider an incident that occurred at the close of the Franco Prus sian War of the Year J870. We shall also go to the barracks of the soldier boys here at home, but then, there is no use telling you all about now, is there, so we will wait and tell the rest on Sunday morn ing. Yoa are going to be there aren't you? Hdpd so. That is, if you have no other church home, or if there is no meeting in your own church. , Glad to see so many of you out last Sunday. And say, by Goorgc, I appreciate your kind words of appreciation. I sure do, and I thank you for thomv with all my heart. You konw they help a fellow a lot- especially when he is ' a stranger in a strange land, as I am. You know I have traveled all over this country of ours, and to me there is no East no North-no South no West just simply one great glorious land, bounded, as another has expressed it. on the East by the Rising Sun; on the North by the North Polo: on the South by Day of Judgement and on fhe West by all Creation, and with all my heart I give to her this toast: "Here's to Columbia, Free laws and a free church; from their blessings ' May plotters be left in the lurch. ' Give us pure candidates ' : And a pure ballot box And our Freedom shall stand As1 firm as the Rocks." ' F'Come'and see me Sunday morn ing. No service on Sunday night, as that is the time for the union meeting at the Methodist Church. . I wish you well and you do the same by me, and let us all try and do our best to be fair and squae and over and above board in every way, shape and form. So Long, Preacher EVANS.
