He said candidates ought never to
use personal solicitation. The
strongest objection he had to one
candidate for L. s. Senator was that
he had left tie place to which he
had been elected bv a former Leg
islature, to super:nt nd the So
licitation for his denomination. Not
that he should be SO much blamed
so long as public sentiment isas it is,
but his duty was to remain at Wash
ington. He cared not SO much for
law on the subject, but he desired
to have the public mind reformed.
Speaking Of officials who in q few
years on moderate salaries accumu-
late fortunes, he said they ought to
be despised and avoided: yet if one
comes back rich when he ought to
be poor, nels as much respected as Il
he had been honest. The everlast-
ing soliciting" button-holing for
Office should be considered
crime. His objection to the
bill was that it did not reach
the whole matter: he would vote
for the strongest anti-bribery bill
brought in; ne would hope that it
would aid mento see the degradation
of the common solicitation for Of
fees, from the highest to the lowest

ry is borne out by the way the girls
operate with counterfeit notes which
come under their hand in the Treas

who has had twelve years experience
in the work, says they are worth ten
times as much as the men for such
business. "A man always has a reas-
on for a counterfeit, says the Gen
eral; "forty, may be, but be wrong
half the time. A woman never has

which no citizen has right to withhold
his condemnation. It must be rebuked
the instant it is perpetrated. The evil
must be crushed in its infancy, while its
bones are yet in the gristle, and before
it becomes formidable as precedent.
Let me say in conclusion that the
proceedings Of this meeting, so far as
the great proportion Of those who take

party purpose or object. Far from us

George William curtis, editor of

ject, says:
"a very great wrong, as it seems to
US, has been committed in New Orleans,

we are only 50 because we believe the

Bribery.

The introduction of a bill bv
Senator Cox, in the State Senate,
in relation to bribery and corruption
in elections has created Considera-
bic debate. The speakers brought
out nearly every variety Of bribery
and corruption that it is possible for
the human heart to invent or cor
rupt politicians to practice. Many
of the remarks not only pointed at
the crimes but also directly at some
of the prominent office holders at
whose doors the charges of corrup-
ton have been recently laid. Some
members threw part of the blame
right where it belongs, that is upon a
depraved public sentiment that per-
mits such corrupt state of things.
AS long as the public wink at bribery
and corruption and honor the suc-
cessful taker Of bribes in the shape
of money or office or the success
full politician who obtains his place
by bribery, just SO long will corrup-
ton exist. While the people are
ready to sell their votes for the
fawning attentions Of slick, oily,
button-holing politicians, to part
with their franchises for a treat, O,
promise, just so long will the part
les and the country be run by rings
and cliques, wire pullers and cau
Gus managers. When the people
find out that they must think fo1
themselves in this country of boastec
freedom or else submit to be slaves
then there will be hope that thei1
liberties will be safe.
