The forthcoming monthly state* ment of the government receipts and ex- 11 pendltures will bear out the coroildsnt as- b eertlon of the friends of the bill that as * soon as the largo quantity of advance t? importations that were rushed Into the ,v country in anticipation of Increased u duties were consumed, the Dlngley law P would vindicate itself as a revenue producer. 11 It Is stated officially that the Increase from customs this month have so far ^ exceeded that of November that a sur- lr r!u? will be left for the month. A?i?le T from the receipts on account of the Pad- A flc railroad matter the total receipt* for Q the month would have exceeded the ex- h pendltures, and It Is now assured that, *( with the exception of January, when P large Interest payments are due, the re- n rnnlnlng months of the fiscal year will each produce a surplus. g) This Is very gratifying to the friends (J of the Dlngley measure, and is a eufll- ^ clent vindication of the Judgment of the cJ farmers, who have not been disturbed by the criticisms of the freo traders who n were so confident that It would prove a tj failure. A great many rash things that R have been 6ald by these critics will d now have to be recalled. Aside from Its w revenue producing features the Dlngley bill Is affording ample protection to many branches of Industry and the benefits are being daily felt throughout the s country. a The outlook for the coming year is c bright, with promise for the efficiency of v the new fiscal policy of the government, C and the Republican position will be sus- 1 stained. In the meantime the calamity- J. Ites and the free traders will be left v without a peg to stand upon. The dawn g of the new calendar year, ho full of hope t? and encouragement, Is but the forecast tl of what la to follow, and by the end of the fiscal year, on the 30th of June next, every prediction concerning the Dlngley n bill is likely to be fulfilled. In Chairman Dingley's speech before " the bouse, summing up the debate, be- 1 fore the bill was passed, he said that he ll was. confident that by the beginning of v January the new law would prove Its udcquacy as ft revenue measure, and the r treasury statement for the present 6 month will show how nearly right he f was. The deficit will fte a thing ot me past, and the croakers will retire from j the Held In pretty much the same condl- 0 tlon that they have found themselves In t on previous occasions when their predlc- t tlona concerning Republican tariff legli- h la tlon have failed. v l.tllfr u litiitfactor. * While young Letter, of Chicago, may c not have intended to establish for him- c self a reputation as a philanthropist, the direct effect of his wheat dealings has been such that the country has reason to t congratulate Itself that he made the o Plunge ho did. lie has enabled the t farmern to still further prosper by rals- C 1ng the price of wheat to a figure that Is c Justified by the conditions. The Phlla- \ delphla Inquirer truthfully declares that n exccpt for Lclter'e courage, and his de- J termination to get a fair price for wheat, u the foreigners would have been laying In > their supply of American wheat at prices which would not pay the cost of tho crop.

All Hiellttlo tattler* wrlght prof'-aslonal *>)< ntlators In New c York, Hoston and JSaltlmore have been j letting for yarn that wheat wouldn't , stay up when It wont up. They were always on tho b"ar oldo of tho market, and ?' th'Ir ?'.irnhlnf'i Influence has done a ( good deal to I<e^p the price fif whoat at ^ the low levol, where the foreign purchaser always wants It.

As an evidence of the proverbial wick iness of Chicago a journal of that cits Ives some startling statistics which i athered on a Sunday. The paper statei fiat in a small district of the westeri metropolis, only one mile long and a hal lile wide, on the Safoath evening li esrton, there were gathered in theatre* ),000 persons, 30,000 in saloons, 3,000 ii ouses of ill fame, and 500 in wine par irs and opium dens, making 64,000 per )ns in all, while In the same district ai le same time but 1,2U persona were ti ttendance upon religious services. O liess 219 were in an Episcopal church )8 in a Catholic church, 207 at Salvatior rmy service, 46 In an Adventlst mission ) In a Free Methodist mission and 41 mattered about in other missions. This la a remarkable showing, aa dernnstrating the wickedness of the wicked it city. When the erratic Mr. Stead, or Jngland, wrote his book, "If Chris ame to Chicago," the people of that cltj rented the imputations he cast upon iti loral character and denounced him as t beller. Perhaps he did overdo the thins nd exaggerated the naughtiness of tin jwn by the lake, but the truth is bac nough. The journal that went to the troublf f compiling the above figures seems tc ave made a pretty thorough canvass nd until some other newspaper contralets the reBuit of the inquiry with conlnclng figures the outside public will h( >rced to believe that there Is a big mis[onary Held in Chicago ripe for the hares t.

Two holidays In luccesslon had boon too much for him. llltlo golden head appeared, Just topdug the ledge. "Well?" snapped tho clerk. lie had just opened his window in the jostottlce yesterday morning, and elghl lours of the hardest kind of work were n sight. The little girl, who had beer Irst in tho line, hesitated a moment, ['hen she plucked up courage. "i'lease, mister," she began, "I wanl l stamp for this to send it to my little >rother." In her hands she held up a package lone up In brown paper and roughly led with a bit of coarse twine. It waa ilmest falling apart in her tiny hands, She held It out to the clerk, who took t with the same grrtce that he had been aklng thousands of packages during he holidays. He looked ut the address to see vhether it was foreign or domestic, Phen he looked back at the child, Phero was a queer look in his eye that lad not been there before.

It read: ; jvuut-i i ; : Heaven. : For a moment the clerk hesitated, rhe little one took It for a refusal to ac c*j?t the parcel because she had not paid nough for tho postage. Quickly the Iny bands fumbled nt n little purse vhere two more pennies were In keepng. These were on the window lodge In i moment with the other two. "There's two more pennies, sir," said he little one. "Please tako It now. 1 laven't any more pennies." "Why, my child," said the clerk, whe lad babies of lila own at home.
