The Lobby.

That grand old man, Hofatio Sey.
mour, eloquently emv has4es the point
We have been striving to impress upon
our readers, that a simple tfansferal Of
the government officers from dishonest
to honest men, will not bring the coun.
try the relief IL needs. What IL wanted
is a change Of methods. as well as Of
men. Mr Seymour says Of the Repub-
Leans: "Their tendency has been to
centralize its power ~ the general CAPT
tai and to swell the bulk OF legislation
transacted there until II has not only
gone beyond their control, but beyond
the comprehension Of sny body hut the
life members Of the lobby. That -
the important fact. Republicans may
be a. pure, personally, as Cessar's wife /;
yet so long as their ideas are what they
are. 30 long as the laws they enact are
system OF legislation and admiBistTa.
tion TO which by the past Of their party
they are committed is what it is, the re-
suits must necessarily be official demor.
alization and the destruction OF the
peoples rights. Republican methods at
tract and sustain the lobby. which, as
Mr.. Seymour significantly puts il, is q

cally the controller Of that government

vile frauds that stain the Republican

and Whisky Ring. and Babcock and
Belknap steals originated in the lobby.
But for the lobby they could not have
been carried through and because there
was lobby they would have been con.
summated, no matter how honest, per
sonslly. the Congressman and other
officials IL used had been when elected.
The only way TO get rid Of corrupt laws
and corruption in office IL to get rid Of
the lobby. The only way 10 get rid OF
the lobby IL to return to the simple and
constr utional principles and practices
OF the Democracy.
IL is q matter Of history shat while
the Congress was Democratic there was
no lobby. Democratic methods destroy.
ed it. Since the Copgressis Republican
again, the lobby is back. IL anything. In
