His comparisons are, it is true, all drawn between the years 18and 1877,—covering the four years of the rebellion, during and in consequence of which public as well as private expenditures of all kinds were of course largely increased; but, making due allowance for everything properly chargable to this cause, and there still remain many and ample reasons for dissatisfaction and discon- tent. He shows, for example, that with 4,753 state militia men in camp in 1559, the military expenses ol the state were $44.1), whereas in 1877 they amounted to #1 74, with only 3,18) mien, or adecrease in effective force of 33 per cent. and an increase in the cost of maintain- ing it of 142 per cent. The expenses of the judiciary have grown from #107.780 in 1899 to $516,515 in 1877, or an inerease of 194 per cent. ; While during the same period the cost of main- ~aining the executive department proper, that is the governor and execu'ive council, has more than doubled. General Butler also cites aS an instance of the abuses perpetrated by “commissions,” which have of late become so common in state and city governments, that of one sppointed by the Governor to dispose of some lauds belonging to a tribe of Indians located in that state, in which the expenses of sale, etc., amounted to $17,207.0—afterward reduced to $15,655.0,—whlie the property soid Produced all told only $7,05: As a matter of course, there can be only one Yesult frum this sort of thing,—a large increase in the state debt,with a corresponding growth in the burden of annual taxes. General But- Jer shows that, exclusive of the war debt pro- per. which foots up nearly $11,000,(00, the pub- lic debt of the state has swollen from $7,00),000 the Ist of January, 13s, to $22,353,00) in being an inereuse of 219 per cent., while the population of the state has only inereased in the same y-riod a little more than 31 per cent. In view of these startling figures, it would not be surprising if the people of Massachu- setts were ready for a change in the manage- ment of state affairs, quite aside from all ques- tions affecting national politics. Whether they are ready to trust to the hands of Gene- ral Butler the work of reform and puriiica- tion, remains to be seen; but if any one sup- poses that that gentleman is not a formidable candidate, such person will be very likely to find him or herself very much surprised when the returns of the November election come in. It must not be forgotten that there are a great many men in both political parties who are tired of the way in which public affairs are managed, no matter who is in power, and who are beginning to think that matters some- times get so bad that there is nothing to be lost by a change, even in crossing a stream. <_< __ THIS 18 OUR PUBLISHED PRICE LIST.
