POPULAR PLAGIARISM.
An Ofense Which Is Very Often Commit
ted UnconSciouSlY.

An OHense Which Is Very Often Commit
ted Unconsciously.
a preacher of New York has been ac-
cused of plagiarizing from brother in
the pulpit two sentences which he in
troduced into one of his sermons recent
ly, and considerable fuss is being made
about the affair. This charge OF
plagiarism, says the Boston Traveller,
is being made very frequently against
writer's of late. There surely never has
been time when so many authors have
been accused of stealing from others of
their craft as to-day. We have no rea-
son to believe that they are less honest
than they used to be, and there surely
must be some reason for this curious
state of things. This reason may be
found in the fact that the world is rap
idly growing old; it has, by the way,
been growing old for a good many
years.
1t is only within few years since we
discovered that mother earth had, with
feminine unscrupulousness, deceived US
basely with regard to her age. Conse-
quently new ideas are scarce; our an
cestors CLEANED the field of originality,
and left us Il rich legacy of thought
''AANh wv 1iLNS bOOll CONSCIOUSLY anu
unconsciously appropriated as our own
BESIDES, the human mind as it advances
by the process of evolution, becoming
more penetrative and absorbing, scizes
upon IDEAS spontaneously, as it were,
and not at mental volition of the
thinker, and is frequently dcluded into
thinking that these ideas are self-gen-
Grated.
1t is familiar fact that one may I'M
consciously plagiarizc, not only the
thoughts that one hears expressed, but
the very words that give them exprcs-
sion. 1t is almost impossible to trace
the subtle workings of the mind of the
highly developed and sensitive indiyid-
ual, susceptible to the most delicate i'm
prcssions- There arc many minds so
highly cultured and so susceptible to
such Impressions that they are almost
clalrvoyant. Indeed, it is not at all i'm
probable that as we advance in civiliza-
tion clairvoyance will become one of
the higher faculties Of the educated
man. In the case Of the New York
minister, who has been accused of
plagiarism, it is probable that, though
he may have appropriated the words of
another, lie did SO unconsciousIy, and
ought, therefore, not be condemned or
censured for it.

In the Name OF Democracy,

Roswell p. Flower and brothcr-in-
law, have contributed $50, 900 to the
Democratic campaign fund in New
York. Tammany has raised Il half
million. -Cl0rion-Ledger
Whittier are we drifting? Over
half million dollars from two indi-
viduals and one secret political socie-
ty to meet the legitimate (!) campaign
expenses of the Democratic party III
an ordinary otf-year State campaign !.
Why so much money, if not for eX,
travagant and corrupt purposes, and
how valuable must be the stake that
is being played for by the ones seek
ing it
1t is high time the people of this
country were seeking to have II strict
account rendered of money spent i'll
political campaigns. The Presidency,
United States Senatorships, governor
ships and the lesser political Offices
are coming to be literally bartered
and sold to the individuals and par
ties that can put up the most "swag''
for campaign purposes, legitimate and
otherwise.
A few months ago, the leading Dem
ocratic paper of Mississippi spoke APP
provingly of Ex-Secretary Whitney
of New York, who is Il son-in-law of
one of the Standard Oil mOnopolists,
as the next Democratic nominee for
President. because, as it said, he
could give million dollars to the
Democratic campaign fund.
Spirits of Jefferson, Jackson and
other simple, honest and economical
fathers of the Democratic party, look
down on it, and see if you recognize
your degenerate offspring!
And it is for such trayesty on de-
mocracy and pure government as this
that the people of the South are ask
ed, in the name Of white supremacy
and tariff reform, but in reality to
keep in place and power the polite
ians and place hunters, to "stand
solid.n
Away with such transparent fraud
and hypocrisy. When money bags,
not patriotism and principle, are the
arbiters which decide between leaders
and parties. no wonder the people
mourn and cry out for relief from the
task masters, and yet cry in vain!

ANNOUNCEMENT,

Up to a few months ago, the LEAD
rE could make no special effort to add
to the number of It's subscribers. be
cause the size of its circulation had
long since grown as large as could he
conveniently handled on an old-laSh-
toned Washington hand press, and it
was question with us for good
while whether the prospect of a still
further increase of circulation would
Justify us in investing in new and
faster press. We finally decided to
make the venture. and purchased Il
new Improved Country Prouty. on
which we can print from seven to eight
hundred papers per hour. Thus far.
the result has fully vindicated the
wisdom of our decision. Though the
new press was bought at the dullcst
season of the year, when money was
scarccst, our subscription list has al
ready grown third larger and con-
/ tinucs to increase weekly.
As one of the prime objects of the
! LEAIER has always been to accom-
plish all the good it can, we have late
~ been contemplating another plan
for extending its circulation and thus
increasing its usefulness. This is to
reduce the subscription price, so as to
place the paper within the reach of
every person who cares to take and
read a good paper. Hence, from this
date, the LEADER will be sent to all
new subscribers. and all old subScrib-
ers who renew. for ONE DOLLAR \
YEAR. or SIN MONTHS FOR FIFTY CENTS.
/ This leaves us but small margin on
each subscription over and above the
actual cost of blank paper. press
work, mailing and postage, and hence
we must of necessity greatly increase
the size of our circulation and the
subscription price must be strictly
cash in advance. No paper of the
cost and value Of the LEADER can be
sent to subscribers for dollar, and
that on Il credit, as the LOSSES would
very soon cousumc all thc profits.
As to the future policy of the paper,
that can best be- Judged by the past.
Every worthy moral and political re
form movement will find in it a val
liant and fearless champion, and every
enemy of these, be they men or par
ties, an uncomprOmislng opponent.
To the Alliance and its principles, aud
to the cause of Prohibition, we expect
at all times to give unfaltering allie
glance.
In conclusion, we earnestly request
