SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS

The Union says that Kansas refused to come
into the Union because the people were I'M
willing to take upon themselves the burden of
q State government, and that the yexed ques-
ton of slavery had little or nothing to do with
the decision. For this reason it expresses, in
much confidence, the conviction that bleeding
Kansas" can no longer be paraded on the po-
litical boards.
The Union, further, thinks that the age of
the Inteilfgeneer is an impediment in the way
OF finding the laws Of the Democratic party !;
and In another article it gives its views of the
influence Of the Ocean Telegraph
The Union, also, under the caption, " The
Tax on officials" promulgates the following ::
"f there Is person in the public service who
does not voluntarily contribute the amount, at
least, Of two dollars and half q year on each
thousand dollars of his salary support the cause
Of the Democracy, he should be dismissed at once
and his place filled by one who is patriotic and
liberal enough to double the contribution. We
believe the cause TO justify its support and those
who refuse to aid in that patriotic work should
DE the last to complain If they deprived Of the
special favoTs Of those in power We would
recommend system of espionage. no mean
Efforts TO hunt out the miserable scavenyers who
devote four or five hours of Incidence at their
ossks ana the balance Of their time to assaults
upon the Democracy; bit that forbearance which
Keeps them In otce moment after their treachery
Is known is sadly misplaced. IL is a notorious
TACT that more than half the patronage of this Gov
eminent is bestowed upon unworthy and untrust-
worthy men"
Views concerning official duty, and of the
character Of those on whom the patronage of
the Government is bestowed, even when in the
hands OF our own political friends. such as
these of the Union, are but corollaries of the
doctrine that public duties and trusts are lcgit-
Innate "spoils"-a doctrine to which we have
never subscribed, as all the Star, readers
know well. Our fellow-citzens who may re-
gard themselves as being assailed in the article
from which We quote above, need be under no
apprehension that the Democratic party of the
land will shoulder any such corolIaries of the
"spoils' doctrine for those who control its
councils rarely commit it to positions indefen-
sible before the people in the thorough scrutiny
incident to the popular canvass
