WASHINGTON LETTER

WASHINGTON, d. G., June %, 1881.
Secretary Window has stopped
the investigation in his department.,
abolished the office which was being
inquired into, sent one of the impli-
Gated persons to Europe on an Of
fetal mission and pocketed the report
of the investigating committee. I
submit that, after evidence was made
public which would have driven sew
eral treasury officials out of any pri-
vate business house, this course of
the secretary is indefensible. If the
published evidence was true, it was
not fair to make one of the guilty
officials scape goat for all. And if
it was true, the report should be made
public as q vindication of all. This is
as matter of justice between the al
legged culprits The rights of the
public are equally clear, and are OF
much greater importance. The sec
rotary should publish tho report be-
cause it is not his, but the public S.
It is now understood there will be no
more treasury investigation.
The other investigation-the in
terminable star route muddle-put on
a new face yesterday. The author
ties will not put the papers before
the Grand Jury until September.
Whether this means that the alleged
offenders are TO be condoned, after
the manner of the treasury robbers,
mentioned above, or that there is not
such mine Of fraud as was prophe-
sled, none but the attorney general
and postmaster general know. In
either event, the shutting down OF
active investigation in the only two
departments in which Investigations
have been commenced, is sufficient
and will cause comment everywhere.

Col W. W. Dudley, of Indiana,

great Library OF Universal Knowledge
il announced to be completed ready tor

Cham bers Enclyclopedia, whose distin :
guished merit is universally known, is
the lsborious product of the ripest Brit.

a work of foreign production it has been
naturally deficient in its adaptati on to

Nothing In II.

The San Antonio Express denies
having CLOSED over the star route
frauds. Well, We don't know what
that paper may choose to call it, but
we have seen in its columns numer-
GUS elaborate pleas in mitigation Of
the crimes Of Brady & Co. So long
ago as last year, when the whole
North was awake to their iniquities,
the Express, in common with several
other Texas papers, lauded the tex
pediting" enterprise Of Brady, and
and claimed credit for Texas con-
gressmen that they had lent it their
countenance and cooperation. Know
ing Brady. Tyner & Co., as We have
for twenty.years past in the politics
of Indiana, as representatives Of q
base trading class, we felt sure all the
time they must come to grief in this
matter, and cover with shame their
defenders and apologists.
But the Express and few others
claim that in consequence of their
exposure the government is running
to an economical extreme and cutting
off needed mail facilities. We don't
believe a word Of it The investiga-
ton Of BradyIs case is in progress,
and his stsalings enable him to en-
ploy 9 corps Of the ablesi counsel in
order TO q desperate defence and
this clamor about the GRIPPING Of
the postal service is merely q part Of
his tactics 10 divert attention from
his crimes and excite sympathy. 1t
is e,osedingly thin. indeed The
truth is under Bradys system. the
men who did the real work Of carry
ing the mails got only moderate pay /;

Political Blunders.

Tho founders OF our government,
with all their wisdom and patriotism,
made, as is now obvious, some grave
and lamentable mistakes A repub-
lie in America was ON untried ex-
pertinent and they, not very unnat
urally, distrusted the capacity Of tho
people for self government and were
biased and misled by . natural
prejudice in favor Of the institutions
Of Great Britain.
One Of the mistakes which resulted
was the substitution Of the cumbrous
and absurd electoral system Of voting
for president instead Of making that
official election by direct popular vote
We have seen repeated evil and dan
gerous consequences growing out Of
this mistake, which eliminated in
the fraud against the rights Of the
people Of 1915, by the counting in Of
the man whom every intelligent man
in the nation today knows was not
elected to the Office Of President Of
the United States.
Another kindred mistake was the
making OF United States Senators
elective by the State Legislatures,
instead Of by the people direct. Evil
and only evil and that continually
has been the result. The position Of
Senator in the great majority Of cases
has since the foundation of our gov
eminent been matter Of shameless
intrigue or open bargain aud sale.
Andlet aman once attain the position,
however unworthy, it is almost i'm
possible to GUST him--such is the cor
rupt influence which it enables him to
WELD. OF this we have had frequent
examples all over the country. Hence
such men as the late Senator Morton
Of Indiana, and Conkling and Blaine,
Of to-day, and many others North
and South became o sort Of satraps
disclaiming all responsibility to the
people, and claiming little less than
absolute authority. The senators
from Texas, for instance, manifest
precious little regard for the wishes or
interest Of the people yet suchis their
political and pecuniary power, WELD
by virtue Of their position, that it
would be almost impossible to dis
place them.
The political doctors have for
some time been laying their heads
together to devise some plan to abate
the defects Of our presidential cleo
toral system and great deal is be-
ing said concerning the corruption
and disregard Of the peoples will of
United States Senators. The simple
and effsctual remedy is to make the
President and Senators elective by
direct popular vote. Then there
would be no further trouble with re-
gard to the point referred to. Let
there be q new waking up, in action, to
the fact that the people are capable
of self-government, and all will be
well.
