RESPONSIBILITY FOR OFFICIAL zHIEvERY.

Monsieur Jourdin, an amusing person in
one of Moliere's plays, expressed much
surprise on learning that ne had been
talking prose for more than forty years
without knowing it. Professor Jevons
adds to this reference that ninety.nine
people out of hundred might be equally
surprised on hearing that they had long
been converting propositions, syllogizing,
falling into paralogisms, framing hypoth-
eses and making classifcations with
genera and species and if asked whether
they were logicians, they would undoubt-
eddy answer "no." If the Democracy of
California, when, by majority ruling in
the Legislature, and en- ployed in the ex-
pulsion Of Republican ofice.holders,
to give place for hungry Democrats, had
been asked seriously whether, in all its
twisting and turning and framing of spe.
cial statutes for the purpose, it was en-
gagged in work Of reform, in an uneartb.
ing of official POPULATION, in discovery of
systematic robbery, and in an expose of
corruption, would not have dared, speak
ing honestly, to have laid such claim.
It is, probably, now as much surprised at
the result of a change of administration
as was Moliere's character over his discov.
cry. Like Jevons' ninety mine, it has had
no idea that it has been profound and
searching. The Democrats are entitled to
no greater credit in this matter than Re-
publicans. What they are doing, it is
their duty to do, not as Democrats, but as
sworn officials. While it is true that the
new broom, which has disturbed the dis
honest, is the immediate cause of the pres
emit discovery of official dishonesty at San
Francisco, it is to be remembered that the
disclosure must have come about in just the
same way had there been no change of ad-
ministration.
Gray's confession would have been made
Just as readily to Controller Kenfeld as
TO Controller Dunn. Besides, It appears
that the plowshare of investigation is
turning up Democratic as well as Republi.
can defaulters in the political world. The
truth is that these disclosures arein the order
of events, and the accident of time merely
turns them to the apparent advantage of the
Democrats. Republicans who respect the
principles of their party in no wise seek
to excuse the defaulters in the party ranks !;
they wish each and every one of them ex-
posed and punished to the uttermost. They
realize that the party is strong which can
discipline its own or call for its guilty to
be scariied. At the same time it is well
for them to guard against the sophistry Of
their political opponents, who are claiming
that the present effects are the result of
Democratic action; the direct conse-
quence of Democratic all-seeing and
penetration, and it was for such rea-
sons, and those alone, that "legislating
out of Office from the first was INDUCED
in. This will do for campaign purposes,
and may catch a few gudgeons, but the
thoughtful and observant will find no rea-
son for the desertion of one party because

tory teaches US that the Republican party
has always been as ready to punish official
offenders in its ranks as if in those of the
opposing clan. Nor are we unwilling to
give the Democracy credit for not infre-
quently manifesting an equally just dispo-
sition. What we do claim is, therefore,
that individual dishonesty in Office is not
necessarily chargeable TO a party of prin-
ciples, but that the party is to be justly
held responsible for administrative mis-.
conduct, the result of its policy, the ap.
plicstion of its principles, and nothing else.
