Increasing the army so largely and sending so many men to the faraway Philippines and maintaining them there for an undefinlte period has made It certain thst the ex pendllures of the government will be largely Increased during the coming two yeara, as the general expectation ts that all of the volunteers will serve the full term of enlistment. During the last fiscal year, the government expenditures wore $90,000,000 In excess of Its receipts This indicates that more money will have to be raised. There are only two wars of raising it. More bonds must be Issued, or new taxes must be Imposed. Neither Is likely to be popular, but It is a question of necessity, not popularity, Under the act of Congress providing authority for Issuing bonds to carry on the war with Spain, ouly halt of the $400,000,000 were Issued, snd none of the 100,000,000 in certificates of Indebted. ness bsve been Issued, but the fact that Treasury officials have been quietly In vestlgallng with a view to an extentlon of the stamp tax Indicates a desire to try to raise the money needed by new taxea rather . than , by ' more bonds, although Secretary Gage says that neither bonds nor additional taxes will be necessary, and cxpressesdoobts of his leeal rlirht to issue more bonds. If the necessity to do so should arise, un der the law authorizing their Issue lo pay the expenses of the war with Spain which officially ended with the signing of the treaty of peace. . 1 ; Hamilton "Clark, of Chauncey, Ga. says he suffered with Itching piles twenty years ln-foro trying DeWitt's Witch liazel Sulve, two boies of which com pletcly cured him.

The Post Office department has a very stringent rule prohibiting the presence In Wash logton for the purpose of trying to In fluence legislation of any postal employe, and under that rule the man who is now getting the fourth class postmasters Into the National League of Fourth Class Postmasters was discharged. The object of the league Is to get legislation from Congress raising the pay of fourth class postmasters, and they are now raising money to be nsed for that purpose by assessing themselves from 10 cents to $3 each, according to their pay. The Post Office Department can prevent postal employes coming to Washington to lobby before Congressional committees, but It cannot prevent their employing lobbyists and sending them, to Washing ton. w t$g5aiiiuiin.i muims Anways Croup Syrup is the best rente dy for whooping cough on the market.
