TIE REPORT or THE INTERIOR.

I'm so large a country as our own the vast
interests presided over by the Department OF
the Interior present many attractive prob
lens to the student of national affairs. Seve-
raj of them are quite unlike, in all their essen
tial features, the questions presented to older
Governments, and in many respects they are
peculiar to our soil and our institutions.
In the very full extracts flom the
annual report of Secretary Delano,. pub
lished exclusively in TIE TRIBUNE OF
Wednesday, there were many facts suS-
gestive Of the progress OF the nation. The
vast area once left blank upon our maps. or
entitled "the Great American Desert" Is now
becoming accurately known through the labors
Of scientific exploring parties, and is found to
possess unexpected attractions for the settler.
The SecretaIy's report gives Oh the one hand
the broad results of the scientific work OF
Prof. Hayden and Major Powell, i'll surveying
and mapping these hitherto unknown regions,
and on the other informs us that pioneers,
pushing westward for settlement, have filed
entries under the Homestead act exceeding by
half million those of the previous year.
A great difference of opinion has been in
dcatcd in recent discussions as to whether
the country is losing its supply of forest trees.
There are those who believe that the annual
destruction of timber does not exceed its
growth, while others who have investigated
the subject think that we are cxhaustlng Our
forests with great rapdity. So far as the
timber lands of the Government arc con-
cerned, Secretary DelanO's opinion is very
definite. He thinks that at the present
rate of denudaion everything OF value on
these lands will be cleared off in few years.
AS sold hitherto by the Government, such
tracts have brought prices far below their
worth, and the Secretary suggests That they
should be examined by commission; their
| sales to be aftcrward SO restricted as to cover
the appraised value
| Among the minor suggestions of the report
is one to limit the period during which
bounty claims may be filed, and certainly
there seems to be reason for it in view of the
! fact that rot one per cent of the 100000 suS-
pended claims were considered of enough
value by Their owners to prosecute them last
year. The Secretary advocates the plan Of
| giving the Indian chance for civilization by
| enabling him to acquire property under the
| Homestead act. This is so obviously a wise
as well as a humane measure that 1t ought
not to be long delayed. An elaborate statistical
review of the position Of the Immigrant rail-
roads gives class of facts that will reward
careful study. On the whole, the report indi-
| Gates that the nation has made a gratifying
progress, which not even the hard times and
the depression of business have noticeably
checked.

THE SINEUS or warp

Our politics will be less corrupt when they
become less costly. 1t takes entirely too much
money to get an Office, even honestly. What
are called the legitimate expenses of a cam
paign have grown to proportions which are
not legitimate, and spread out i'll directions
| which arc not reputable. The candidate is
tapped on every side. There are calcium
lights and brass bands to be paid for clubs
to be uniformed and fed and whiSkied fire.
works, lanterns, banners, torches, and what
not to be bought; halls to be hired and
speakers to be feed workers to be supported
and salaried; and thousand and one
other items of expense. This lavish out
lay is, after all, to poor purpose There is
indeed food for satire in the spectacle of q
republican government being chosen amid the
believing Of mercenary Oratory, the lurd
glare of sliy-rockets and Roman candles, the
uncertain Pickering Of procession torches, the
blaze of the lime light, and the cheers Of
the great mwashed and unwashablc--a Chi
nese mode Of warfare whose symbols rep
resent nothing and whose gongs and drains
frighten scarcely any one. least of all the enemy
These displays are often as Intellectual as
they are wasteful. The intelligent high
bred citizen passes them by in contempt
To him they convey no assurance that the
people who make them are fitted to administer
the government, but merely evince their in
tense desire to get hold of it. And to the
rabble which chases after them, they have no
more significance than any other street show
But there are worse things than friyolity
and uselcssness to be charged against this
system. This expenditure Of money has
reached a point which many do not discern
Doubtless many a steady going citizen would
be astounded to learn that his Member of
Congress spent two, three, perhaps four times
q years prospective salary to gain the priyi-
lege of drawing it for twice that length of
time. A Member of the present Congress-
frankly asked by friend what his canvass
had cost him, as frankly replied-"I should
abe ashamed to tell you" Over in New
Jersey the Democratic gossip before cleo
ton was that the Republicans were likely to
lose the day through the dsaiiection of a
faction whose leader was run for Governor
some years ago, and bled. so said rumor, TO
an amount nearly double the present salary
of the President of tho United States, and
this when there was no hope of success. Not

seriousness that they paid $4,000. $4,000,
$4,000 or even more, for the chairs beneath
them, and perhaps without any outlay for pur-
poses Intentionally corrupt But in it's best
phase, this system breeds grave evils. 1t I'M
settles honest industry and firmly settles
dishonest one. 1t POUNDS and perpetuates
class of political subOrdInates who are gen.
orally idle and always vicious, race OF men
against whose very existence society IS arrayed
in self-defense. From the ranks OF this vOca-
ton, which has grown of late years to the Dig
nifty of profession, are recruited our aldermen
and our school trustees. our amateur and some
times our regular criminals. our "bosS"s" ana
our Congressman. Some graduate at WASH
ing,On, some in Belgium, and some on black
wells Island. Besides calling these men
into being, political largess brings other evils
in its train. Ii dcbauches the public con-
science, and slowly dulls that general sense
of honor which detects at once what is right
and what is not right. 1t wears away the
simplicity that ought to be a characteristic of
republicanism. Honestly distributed, it is in
principle and in practice opposed to the splilt
Of our institutions. Dishonorably given, no
American citizen need be told what horrors Of
corruption and hypocrisy it brings about, and
what shame and national repr0ach.
1t would be not little curious to see how
many votes man would get who should con
duet a campaign on something Of the eco
nomcal and straightforward plan of the
farmers in Iowa year ago. The sum OF
money they expended during the whole canvass
would have but collly furnished forth small
champagne supper in regions where cham
payne is power in politics. A contest car
ried on solely by means of postal cards and
stamps, some few kilograms hall hired for
a few nghts-and no whisky, pin-whccls or
nonsense-mght exercise good influence. II
it did not result in majority. 1t is now too
late for any candidate to make the novel
venture; but, meanwhile, voters can incorporate
this brief test in their political catechisms Tor
use in future campaigns:
Watch tho rival candidates with care, and
see if the one who is spending the most
money is not the one least worldly or success.
