Expensive Politics

=: Most Americans who have run for
Office, whether the office be large OF small
know that it is an expensive entertain-
ment. But they are apt to think thai
doing the same thing in England is COM
paratiyely cheap, though i il not. Meet
ings must be held, agencies employed,
bills printed, placards posted, voters TAX
en- to the polls, there, as here, and for all
those political needs candidates are
obliged of course, to pay handsomely.
The adoption of the ballot in that coun-
thy has increased the number Of polling
places, polling clerks and the like, and
likewise the outlay Of the candidate.
Sharp rivalry raises the cost Of such
items far beyond what they would be if
provided for from 9 common fund. Oc-
Icaslonally expenses are partially betrayed
by party orgnnizati ions, though they gen.
orally form too serious charge for any
except rich men to bear. Those ola can
dldatec ontesting county usually amount
to several thousands of pounds,
and the laws against bribery and
corruption are almost always audacious-
I II violated and with absolute IMMUNITY.
Alta late election IN North Durham, four
candidates spent $40, 600; IN Southeast
Lancashire four candidates spent $780,

average cost Of 8 candidate SO = county

The Rufianism OF Old Dublin.

Tradition tells how Fighting Fitz-
gerald, an exquisite and duelist of the
last century, dealt with. the ''bucks," a
plague then infesting the streets of Dub
lin, and, indeed, the streets CT every
town in Ireland. These sucks" were
half-bred young fellows of some means
and high animal spirits, whose sole oc-
cupation consisted in making town-ife
intolerable to quiet people. Parliament
was more than once compelled to frame
penal enactments with the view Of re-
straining their peculiar rufianism: but,
as there was no properly constituted po-
lice to enforce them, these statutes were
of small effect.
Among the tricks Of the Dublin buck
was this: One of them would take his
stand in the middle of crossing on a
dirty day, and, drawing his sword,
thrust everybody who wanted to pass
into the mud. It was common thing
to see half a dozen or more of these I'M
pleasant sentries lining leading thor
oughfare all ready to afford each other
support. Nor were they content with
merely obstructing the passage. They
knocked off hats, ripped up garments
and pricked the limbs of the wearers
with the points of their weapons, and
broke ribald jests on them the while
to the vast amusement of the ragamuf-
fms who used to collect in the vicinity.
If any one turned on one of these bull
lies the rest would rush up and form a
circle round him; then, Selling him by
the collar and the arms, they would
prick him about the legs until they con-
sidered him punished sufficiently.
= Fitzgerald proposed to some of his
brother exquisites and .fire-eaters that
they should clear the streets of these
pests. It was just the sort of proposal
to suit such daring spirits, and an ASSOC
citation was immediately formed to carry
it out Like their leader, they were
consunlmate swordsmen, and dandies of
the first water-the dandy being in all
essentials the antipodes of the buck-a
distinction which people who write about
the Ireland of the past are very apt to
forget. "a -. ...,e -. .,.,,, :, O..
~ The association set to work most
heartily, and in this way: Whenever q
fine afternoon followed q showery
morning they would sally forth in knots
Of four or five, each being followed by
lusty valet carrying an oak sapling.
On reaching the haunts of the bucks
the servaL is kept the rabble off while
the e1quisites did the work they had I'M
dertaken. For . couple of months few
days passed without three or four
ARRAYS between the bucks and handles,
in which the former invariably came Of
second best. Ere long the mainstay OF
the bucks, the mob, turned against them
too. This meant that defeat was sure
to be followed by hooting and pelting
with mud and stones. Then the pleas
ant pastime of blocking the thorough
fares in broad daylight was abandoned.
