The trouble may be traced 10 more than

baiiotsl Heavens and earth Have we
already sunk so low, under the democrat.
ization OF Doodle politics, that one or
two inoorruptible men cannot be found
in each election district who would be
willing to serve in the capacity of cleo
ton officers? IL so, then indeed our
case In hopeless. But we do not believe
this. We know that there are yet men
left who would soorn TO deceive and mis-
lead the unwary and unlettered and who
would rather live sternally In the minority
than lend themselves to the perpetuation
of corruption and fraud.
And there is another consideration.
There are conscientious men who are get
ting their eyes opened as they have never
been opened before, to the villainous
misuse that has been made of their con-
tributions to campaign funds, and who
are not going TO shell out money here
after to be devoted to the debauchery of
the ballot. There may mot BE- many of
these but there are some, and, as cor
ruption grows more fragrant and notori-
Gus, there will be more who will draw
their purse-sirings tighter, and say to the
politicians: do you expect me to be-
come conscious accomplish in your
nefarious deedsP Do you not know that
in my own business I have maintained
my honor untarnished; that in my
church pass for devout Christian;
that in my household we gather daily
around the family altar and pray for de-
liverance from temptation and evil; that
In society my reputation stands ire.

traitor to God and man and come down

Now is your opportunity, gentlemen Of
the General Assembly. The measure OF
ballot reform that you have before you
may not be perfect; but it comes before
you with the endorsement OF two cspa-
BILE members of the bar who, after care
full examination, have declared that they
could not improve on it. The endorse.
ment of ten states is voucher for its
practicability. There are sincere leaders
of public opinion all over the State who
are saying that ballot reform must come
If elections are to be saved from degeu-
Grating into public auctions for Official
emoluments, from which the deserving
and qualified but moneyless aspirant will
be shut out and the fellow with the

comp himself thereafter at the cost of the
people whom he has purchased the power
