' '-ii?? . The
Natic
Congress Spends $jj,ii50,000,000.
' v?From out the maze of confusing
. lerms and conflicting charges, ii is
how possible lo give Hie correct licUres
showing the amount of public
money which the session of Congr-r
Just drawing to a close lias spent. It
Is $2,247,127,600. or in more intelligible
terms 2.247 million dolbun
This is the total lo dale of the money
which this session lias "nppropiiated"
plus that which it ha' nnthorlaert
to he expemleil. but the hill, for
which will not eoih'e in until after
the close of the next linen I year. The
total appropriations amount i<>
$1,710,482,722. To this figure in"-1
be added "anthorization" lor which
appropriations arc not m;i<!? but for
which Congress has obligated itself
to make appropriations, ol
643,07. The total "appropriation14"
of the last Kepubiiean ('origre. (two
sessions! amounted to
000. The appropriations of this
Congress (two sessionsi will total
at least $3,400.ooO.immi. Th?- increase
in the appropriations Iu< i" i?"
paredness is oou.ihjo, which
leaves an increase <if jou.nno.OlM
of actual nppropirations ov<i last
session to l?e aecoiinii'd Dm ? nlir?ly
by what Senator Smoot has termed
"unccnml'Mt extravagance combined
with inoflieiem y unsurpassed." Tin*
Democratic platform contains two
pertinent statements. One reads
"We denounce.' the profligate
waste of n:ono.v wrung front lln* pco%
pie by opprcs:dve taxation through
(he lavish aj'pt njn i itions <?l Kepuh
Jican Congresses, wliicli hav? itept
taxes hi"h and reduced the purclia
inp power of the people's toil. \V"
demand a return to that simplieitv
and economy which bet;is a democratic
government and a reduction
in the number of useless oliiees. the
salaries of which drain the substance
ol* the people."
The other reads: "Our pled pes are
made to be ;<? pt While in ollim as
well as to be relief upon during lb"
campagn."
The Democratic managers have
been sending distress messages to
Washington, begging their leaders
in Congress to try to make some bettor
fiscal showing. The above figured
and quotations show the reason
why.
Hani to Please. When Mr.
Hilghcs was o\po; i nt I he gross alius.*
of civil service reform by the Wilson
administration, its shameless
spoils -mongering, etc., the Democrat
ie managers were severely criticized
him because ins speeches were
"destructive and not constructive."
Having disposed, for the time being.'
of one phase ot Democratic incompetence,
Mr. Hughes lias now been
discussing the tariff. In one address
in California, for instance, lie
?aid: "I do propose that we shall
have a constructive tariff policy
wrmil Will lUSH'I. mil I-I , mini
will liuilil up, not destroy; which
will count American achievement to
he honorable and nol something to
lie reduced; \vl\jch will set the
United Slitter ahead, worthy of competing
in this economic slniggb'
with any nation 011 earth." And
front the West comes the news that
.Mr. Hughes's tariff speeches are
"most enthusiastically received."!
And yet I lie Democratic managers
are not satisfied. They declared today
(hat Hughes wits "talking timeworn
tariff twaddle." Reports from
Maine indicate that Republics 1
votes are licing made there by tiediscussion
of the tariff and of a true'
Americanism which will make in
American prbud of iiis flag anywhere
In the world - even in Mexico. And
ihe Democratic managers insist that
Hie Republican speakers are making
"spread eagle" speeches. In be',
the disgust expressed at Democratic
headquarters is so pronounced that

Ilise in Sentiment.
The treaty had its rise in sentiment. |
Ever since the war between Paraguay!
and the Allies (Argentine. Brazil and
Uruguayi. the vanquished have had
in struggle against adverse circumstances.
The manhood of Paraguay
was literally wiped nut nf existence
before the Allies wore able to impose
l peace. The country was. in fact, fl-'
7ian< ially and completely ruined. Civil i
wars succeeded war; and, with very |
brief intervals, political commotions
: and military revolts have been main- ;
fained ever since. Though at peace .
for six years and well governed, the
situation in Paiaguav is still preear- j
ions to a decree, the paper currency j
having depreciated to an almost in- i
credible extent its purchasing power
is practically nil. Fluctuations are i
so frequent that speculation on the I
rate o fexchanee has hern a vrrit- j
able gamble, as it was in Argentina i
! before the monetary problem was
solved fifteen years ago when the paper
unit was given a definite gold basis. !
i It is hoped that the treaty will give1
1 -he Paraguayan dollar a certain degree
<>f stahilitv and ronseotientlv an enhanced
value. This is one of the material
advantages which local flnan

The manufactured articles exported
*o Paraguay from Argentina are:
I saddlery, candles, matchps, sugar, furI
niturc, shoes, etc. Paraguayan exJ
ports to Argentina are fruit, vege;
tables, yerha mate, (Paraguayan tea),

of which in 1015. abrogated $2,257,887
