Government Fiscal Year closes
Last Friday With Balance
Of $78,727,810 in Cash.
Washington, July 2.—The
government closed its fiscal
year Friday with total receipts
of $838,402,969 and total dis
ursements of $759,666,159, an
excess of $78,737,810 compar
ed with a deficit of $59,336,
580 for the year ending June
30 last. Both the income tax
and the internal revenue re
ceipts in 1916 showed up far
above the estimates made by
Secretary McAdoo and swell
ed the balance. Income tax
receipts amounted to $124,
867,430, compared with $79,
828,675 last, year, an increase
of about $15,000,000 over
the amount expected by of
ficials even as late as a week
ago. Of the total $56,909,941
came from corporations and
$67,957,488 from individuals
The balance in the general
fund at the close of the year
was $263,879,590, including
amounts to the credit of dis
bursing officers. The actual
balance was $174,965,231,
the largest balacne in the
general fund since 1908.
In a statement analyzing
the figures Secretary McAdoo
said larger internal revenue
receipts for the year have
been due in a great measure
to the unprecedented prosper
ity of the country and the
vigorous enforcement of the
internal revenue laws.’

10,000 TAKE PART IN
PATRIOTIC PARADE
Greatest Crowd in History of
Little Rock Witness Parade
of Citizens and Militia.
Little Rock, July 4.—More
than 50,000 people, many
hailing from the four corners
of the state, witnessed Little
Rock’s greatest preparedness
parade this afternoon .
The parade which was
doubtless the greatest pageant
ever witnessed in Arkansas,
was more than one hour in
passing the reviewing stand on
Capital Avenue and Scott
Street. It consisted of 12 di
visions, each preceeded by a
brass band and one aide to
Grand Marhsall W. G. Hut
ton.
Conservative estimatesplace
the number of marchers, men
women and children, at 10,
000, including 22 companies
of the Arkansas National
Guard now in camp at Fort
Logan H. Roots. The Soldiers
were accorded rousing recep
tions all along the line of
march.
Among those occupying
seats in the reviewing stand
were: Gen. Luke E. Wright
of Memphis, the guest of the
day; Gov. Geo.W. Hays.Ad.jt.
Gen. Lloyd England of the Na
tional Guard, Capt. A. B.
Sloan U. S. A., mustering of
ficer of the Arkansas National
Guard; and several newspa
per men r
Patriotism and Prepared
ness have been the slogans
of Little Rock this week. Not
in the memory of the present
generation has there been such
a popular demonstration as
that which has stirred the
people of the capital city to
day. The presence of two reg
iments of state troops, fully
equipped for service on the
Mexican border, and the im
minence of open warfare with
the Carranza government has
emphasied the spirit of pa
triotism until it has permeated
practically the whole commun
ity Even the Pacifists, many
of them carry flags. There
are no anti—Mexican demon
strations,—it is all pro-Amer
ican. Americanism,the Amer-J
icanism of Wilson that refuses
to go to war so long as peace
may be continued with honor
is actuating the people of
Arkansas today.
No one can forsee what a
day may bring forth. Ominous
rumblings from the border and
from the diplomatic exchang
es keep the public in a state of
feverish suspense, and there is
a feeling among the military
men that actual war cannot be
averted. The Arkansas boys
are anxious to get to the front.
Men who have been rejected
because they were under
weight or had some slight de
fect have broken down and
cried. The moral of the
troops could not have been
better. They are a picked
body of men who require only
the seasoning of a border
campaign to make them the
equal of any. They are ready
to repeat the glourious record
of their fathers who taught
the Mexicans a severe lesson
in the’ 40’s. Should a call for
[volunteers be made later it is
expected that the response
would be much more general
than it has been for militia
service.
The preparedness parade
today has been a revelation.
No such a demonstration was
ever witnessed in Little Rock.
No vehicles were permitted in
line. Everybody walked.
State, county, and city officials
men, women and boys, khaki
clad troopers and men from
the desk and the counters, all
joined the great line of march
ers from the state capitol to
the city park, where the exer
cises were held. Gen. Luke E.
Wright of Memphis was the
speaker of the day, and being
:a military man of wide exper
ience, he fired the patriotism
of his hearers to whiter heat.
No such crowds have thronged
the city park since the day
several years ago when Roose
velt, the High Priest of Pre
paredness, delivered an ad
dress to a sea of people on the
|lawn South of the old Arsenal,
iThe military spirit is not dead.
Anil those who have witness
ed this week’s demonstration
are convinced that it is not
_1_■'_~
Jingoism. The people are in
earnest, and Americanism was
never stronger. Little Rock
has set a rapid pace for the
rest of the state, that has been
most patriotically met by the
boys from towns and hamlets
throughout the commonwealth.
The Spirit of 1770 is revived
in the Spirit of 1916.
