pired when ho said that , so fur us could bo
asceitnlni'd. there tind not been a single raw
of defalcation or ombe//.lenient discovered up
to that ( line Iu his administration , The
strongest claim that can bo iiuulo by Iho re
publican parly for the administration Is that
in conducting the business ol the country ll
lin.s lii'cn without fault or HcvU. Whatever
complaints there nny be , cither by paity
Irloiul or opponent , must bo directed ngalnst
komo other feature.
The end of uvu years Units the country at

clally revealed. The army Is on n better
footing than over , if tbo reci.i-ds are to bo
trusted. A new navy is pdntr rapidlv for

reuled , so far ns the attornov-geiiorid could

Interests of agriculture , In all their

If the treasury department had accom
plished nothing more , the unusual and heroic
manner In which H came to the rescue oftho
business Interests of the country In the re
cent llnancml crisis and rescued them from
\vhnt threatened to bo general bankruptcy , It
xvould huvo made u record ofvhlch nny
party might bo proud. The action of the
late Secretary Windotn , under the direction
of President Harrison , In visiting the money
centers of the country nud consulting the
iinnioitlato needs of the government nun the
careful attention civen to 'the fluctuation ot
the supply and donmiid of the circulating
medium , elicited nt the time the admiration
of every ono directly Interested in the situa
tion and has engrafted Into tlio business Instl
tmions a gratitude which will last as long as
the history of this administration.
As soon nslt bei-an to appear , lust summer ,
that tliero was n growing contraction of tlio
circulating medium by virtue of the filialro
oftho treat London bankers , Iho treasury de
partment began to study the impending
danger In the United States , When It was ,
seen In tbo early part of last July that tbo
accumulation in the treasury must bo gotten
into the business channels of the conn try , n
plan yas decided upon wherebv linmcdiato
relief could be afforded. On July IT tbo first
step -was taken by the treasury department
to relieve the situation by the issuance of a
circular proposing to buy on .luly 1 last
lo ids ns might bo offered at prices to be de-
urmineil uiwu on that d.ite. About $ inUUO.-

There has boon a practical test madoof the
possibilities of our urmy skeleton. The re
cent Indiiin war has brought out some of its
nunlilles. The army U small , it Is conducted
economically , built has the organization , the
discipline and the power of augmentation
necessary to invest the American citizen
with confidence. It , has impressed the red
man with its fighting qualities , and proven that
it is something inoro than ornamental. The
advancement in arms , means of transporta
tion , and powers for concentration at any
given point remote from the center ot per-
inaiicnt distribution have Lceu demonstrated
to tnc satisfaction of the pooplo.
A constant improvement has been In prepress -

There Is probably no other department
which roaches so uuiiy persons directly as
the Interior , under which arc the pension ,
general l.md and CMISUS ofllces , geological
survey , and other important bureaus. Tlio
worlt accoinpllslied by thopaiulon ollk'o has
fur exceeded during the past two years that
inder liny former administration. There
ins been pratically a coinpleto reorganization
n almost every branch of tboofllce , method

ire now received direct from claimants and
icUnuwledgeil promptly. There Irw bao n
a consolidation of divisions , and work has
lieen slinplilicd , n thorough reorganization
having been affected In ttio medical division ,
wh ere by examinations mq more prompt and
satisfactory to I ho claimants.
Tlio power of reopening rejected claims ,
which wns exercised iniliscriinatcly by heads
of divisions and examiners , has been ulacod
exclusively under tlio commissioner and Ids
deputies. The board of review , which was
composed of about forty persons for the reexamination -
examination of cases , passed upon by tlio
board of review , has boon abolished , and the
force bus been distributed among other divi
sions. An appointment division bus been
created. The old system of leaving to the
discretion of Ilio clerks the drawing of cases
to bo considered by examiner.- * , bus been
replaced by the "completed tiles1' system ,
under which tlio rl.iimnnt has a rUhUipou
the prop T certlllcatloii that his claim is com
plete to have It immediately placed where It
will coifio up in Us order for adjudication.
Claims upon tlio "completed Hies" are taken
up promptly for action and if found complete
are immediately allowed. Required proot Is
Immediately called for , so that the claimant
may supply the deficiency without delay.
The soldier who is entitled to a pension and
promptly furnishes the required evidence to
establish his claim has his c.iso disposed of
without delay , and is not subjected tothc
routine and delay uliieh fornyrly iirovnlled.
Tills system has bad the efl'eet of enabling
many thousand claimants whoio claims liive
been pending for from tivo to twenty years
to brlngihcirclaltm to the intention of tlie
bureau for adjudication and allowance.
Great has been tho. decrease of worlr pend

On June 15 Inst there were pending In the
special examination division 10,7'J. ' " > eases ,
with ± 1" ! special examiners in the lleld ; now
there aw only -1,1) ) and 1.V.1 . examiners. This ,
number will bo furthordimlnlslied and the
force in tbo lleld still further reduced under

requiring that all claims now pending in the
Held shall bo returned to the olllce for consid

This is the largest amount of work ever per

since Itsorgani/iitlon. The total amount dis
bursed on account of pensions , etc. , during
the last liscal year , was JIt5-l ( ) ! , StU ( ( ! . Over

U'liat Mas Itccn Dune In the Interest
Of I lll'IIU'l'H.
Itccogiilzlng the great IniDortanco of the
lopnrttnunt of agriculture ns an Instrument
for tbo promotion of thu interests of farmers ,
Secretary Husk Immediately after assuming
control of that new executive branch of the
government perfected an organisation which
: ias brought its operations directly iu contact
with the common ) people.
Sclenco Is ever applied to agriculture
through the system now In operation. le-
[ uirtinciit bulletins are issued for the cs-
[ iccial benefit of farmers , and contain a fore
cast of the diseases of animals , plnguei nnd
insects which menace the products , ground
and atmospherical conditions are predicted
iu such a way ns to give the rural Inhabit
ants every advantage ,
Tlio funds appropriated for statistical purposes -
poses were largely diverted under thuCluve-
, und ad ministration to pay salaries to supcr
lluotis clerks in response lo the clamor for
[ introniigu ; but thuvnronow restored to le
gitimate uses and the ( Ucilities for collecting
statistics and protecting tlio farmer against
the aggressive aetiim of speculators , wlio ,
lint for the reliable information supplied to
him by the depart inanf , might have easily de
pressed the prices of grain ,
A saving to Hie grower of 1 cent per bushel
on tlie grain crops of hist year represents the
vast sum of | | ,000XK , ( ) , The efforts of the
speculators In other directions liavo boon
forestalled ami defeated , saving enormous
sums to tlio farmers , which would
otherwise have gone to swell
the ill-gotten gains of the o who
combine to plunder tlio producer.
Special statistical investigations have been
ordered and nro now being carried on in
reference to the resources and possibilities of
irrigation by means 01 * tirtcsiun systems , will
be before congress. Kxperiments have been
undertaken as to tbo possible development of
the forage production of the HOO.OIKJ.UOO acres
of non-irrigable lands. Tbo seeds of native
varieties of grasses now- crowing wild in this
region liavo been carefully collected , anil in
connection with experiment stations in tlio
arid regions , practical tests nro now buing
conducted therewith. The efforts of tlio
chemical division toward the establishment
of a native sugar industry , which means a
distribution to American farmers of $100,1)00- )
000 now paid to foreigners , hnvo been
strengthened and extended. TIio area
for the profitable raising of sorghum for
sugar lias been clearly defined , and
tlio searching supervision of thh department
ot thu various sorghum enterprises has
finally placed this industry on a practical
basis , with inuuti encouragement as to its
future success. Important tests of the canu
sugar yield are being mado. The beet sugar
Industry has been practically revived under
tlio present administration , and this on a
basis and surrounded by siic.h safeguards , as
Jar as the scientific supervision of tliis divis
ion is concerned , as can alone bo depended
upon to secure tangible results.
This administration found pleuro-pnoumo-
nia existing in American cattle in Maryland ,
Pennsylvania , Now Jersey mid eiv Yorlc ,
menacing the entire cattle interest , ombrac-
ingi,000WK ; ) head , valued tit nearly a billion
dollars. Today finds tbo disease practically
eradicated in all these states.
Thu loss to our foreign cattle trade
through restrictions imposed by ( i'cat '
IJritidn based on the existence of plcnro-
puenmonU in the United States amounts
to over $10 per head , the aggregate loss for
ISfe'J ' being fii.y.W.OOO. With the co-operation
of thu state department measures have been
takea to leap the benefit of the vigorous pol
icy of the eradication of disease at home bv
securing the removal of those restrictions.
The first stop In tills direction is lo convince
tlio British nutlioritles that pleuro-pneumonia
has been effectively eradicated from Ameri
can soil. The wltilrawnl of tlio obnoxious
restrictions must follow , involving an iu-
crcaso iunur aggregate cattle valuation of
S5 0UilK101 ( or the llritish government will
bo compelled lo admit that tbo existence of
the disease is not ttio real i-auso of maintain-
ingthuni , an admission wlilob will justify Iho
consideration of rutalltory measured.
The suggestion of the secretary In regard
to meat Inspection with a view to securing
thoabolition o ( restrictions imposed upon by
1runco and ( icrmany upon our hog products
has been incorporated in the meat Inspection
bill recently passed by congress and the exe
cution of Its provisions cannot fail to result
in 11 like alternative , namely , thu withdrawal
of restrictions or such admissions as to their
true cause as will invite rotalitorv measures.
A vigorous policy in relation to Texas
fever , and the imposition on railroad and
transportation companies of strict rcL'ula-
tions regarding tbo cattle traffic , has greatly
reduced the losses to northern cattle from
this cause , to the great satisfaction of cattle
uroworsthrougbouttlio country. Tlio vurk
In the direction ofi tlio reduction of Texas
fever saves million * , of dollars annually to
ttio export trade. Restrictions on tlio move
ment of cattle from state to state , prior to
tbo enforcement of general regu
lations issued by the secretary
of agriculture caused the country not less
than * IOUOOOiHnnmmlly , ) , audit is generally
agreed by those who nro interested in the
business and have every means of judging ,
that thu Immunity of our stockyards from
Texas infection , umter regulations uf the
bureau , Is worth 80,000,000 to thocatilo in
dustry.
The powers of the bureau of animal Indus
try have been so ealnred us to cnablo the
secretary not only to cover more completely
tlio pathological Buld , but to undertake
valuable work In the commercial Held. The
llrst outcome In this direction wiillio Ilio es
tablishment in the bureau of iidairy division ,
arrangements forwldch have been already
mado.
The oMnblHimcnt of n disease experiment
station with every facility for udoijiiatt
laboratory and practical investigation Into
animal discuses lias been decided upon , mid
tlie work actually undertaken ,
Tlio scope and sphere of I ho forestrv divis
ion has been great- ) ; enlarged , and this work
for the first tlmo placed uron u footing of
practical utility to our Immense forest inter
ests.
