To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Evidently the gentleman who spoke for the committee did not speak for the Secretary of the Treasury when he added that " bonds would be paid as bonds of the late war were paid, out of the usual and ordinary taxes. " Inquiry into these extraordinary expenditures which follow the close of hostilities leads to some interesting facts. Naturally we look to the War and Navy and pension budget to find an increase in expenditure, and not to the other departments of the Government, which pursue their ...even course undisturbed by war. We find, however, that for 1900 the decrease in the expenditures for the military establishment was $95, 000, 000, while the naval establishment showed a decrease of $8, 000, 000. The legitimate expenditures following the close of the war related to the Medical Depart- ment of the Army, telegraph and cable lines, transportation of troops, as well as the establisment of military posts, and increased pensions ; and these increased expenditures will not amount to more than $6, 000 000 including the estimates for additional pensions.
