Keep Hands Clean.

We are firmly opposed to the dogmas
that We should do evil that good may
come, or that the end sanctifles the
means. We have no right to expect
good to come from evil. Senator
Robertson states that he has heard
that many white voters intend to vote
Tor Moses, upon the principle that the
more corrupt the administration, the
sooner will it break down. He shows
the lack Of policy in such course and
she danger it would bring OF checking
the sentiment which is now rallying
Tor our rescue. The same objections
exist against supporting any other
candidate likely TO be brought forward.
We cannot see mnoh improvement in
any one over the others. We cannot
discriminate nicely the degrees of COR
1uption between them. It will be
wiser, therefore. to exercise no choice
at all. Our true line OF action is alto.
