THE WORST VICE OF TINE AGE.
1t seems to be the growing vice Of
the age, In this country ct least, to
Islander public officers. II not by open
and direct charges OF corruption. it Is
done BY inuendo. the worst Of all Sian.
der. The press Is chiefly responsible
for It. Good men. especially those un-
accustomed to loose and ill.deined
criticisms. do not are to become the
subjects Of slsnderous reports, or the
victims ofau INSCRIPTIONS persecution.
Good men hesitate, and often refuse to
place themselves In an attitude that
win render possible the islanders Of the
inscriptions. The time Is coming,
unless . change takes place, whom it
will be utterly impossible to induce the
best class Of citizens to accept any
of3cial position. Thousands Of Offices
are now filled by men unfit for any
public position. because good and
competent mon decline to become q
target for slandsrers to shoot at. To
seek official position In an honest
and manly way. either for the
money that's In 1t, or the honor it be.

srsl rule, TO fall . victim to the vile and
slanderous assaults OF personal and
partisan enemies. There 10 nothing
that human ingenuity can invent that
will not BE- charged against an official
who may b in the way Of others.
Such practices have become most dis
graceful 70 American civilization, and
