REFORyTNG TIE CAUCUS SYSTEM.

The caucus has come to be stencil i'll the
nostrils of all Americans who desire that gov
eminent of the people should be synonymous
with good government. Once an instrument
welded for the promotion of the common pO
litical veal, it has degenerated little by little
into the most dangerous sort of a monopoly.
In the hands of such men as Samuel Adams and
John Hancock it was faithful servant of the
Colonies in their preliminary struggles for in
dependence. In the hands of professional
wire pullers and kindred leeches who are in
politics solely for what they can make out of 1T,
it is to be regarded as one of our great national
curses. Repeated attempts have been made
to purify the caucus, but all of them, for rea-
sons which We will not stop to point out, have
failed.
What then, is best to be done7 Is it the
part of wisdom to continue to labor for its re-
formation, or forthwith to abandon it alto.
gether2 1t has been temporarily abandoned,
as our readers are aware, on several notable
occasions in recent years, to the decided adj
vantage of the pubic. Professor Seelye was
elected to Congress in 1874 Independent
and in defiance of the system. His friends
would have none of the Congressional caucus,
and at a mass meeting at which it was rOundly
denounced they nominated him. To take
fTesher and more forcible instance, the caucus
was abandoned at Albany last spring, and
thus the return of the two statesmen who had
resigned their seats In the United States
Senate in an awful fit of premeditated sulks
was prevented and the voice of the people was
obeyed 1t Is not strange, in view of such
facts, that the proposition 70 supersede the
caucus has met with decided favor i'll many in
telhgent, patriotic quarters. 1t was but day
or two since that news came from Chicago that
the Democratic Executive Committee of that
city had determined to dispense with caucuses
this spring and to nominate local officers at
mass meeting Of Democratic voters. What
is the precise significance Of this important
change does not yet appear. Perhaps Chicago
Democratic caucuses are doomed for the future
from all accounts some of them have invited
destruction by their barefaced denial Of justice
and fair play. Perhaps the abandonment is
for this year only. However it may be, the
Democratic masses of Chicago will discover
that nominations can readily be made without
caucuses, and may form such an attachment
for the new political method as to decline to
return TO the old.
In our own State much has been written
