DEMOCRACY AND PURITY.

The London Spectator expresses the
belief that Democracy is 'the best form
of government as long as it is kept pure
When, however, it grows corrupt it is
the greatest curse that can fall upon a
nation"
This sentiment is expressed near the
close of an article upon the presidential
campaign which is based upon sundry
articles culled from the New York
Nation, and which draws sundry morals
from the alleged effect of the protective
tariff upon politics.
The Spectator plainly implies that
there is a vast amount of corruption in
our campaigns, and that the tariff is
accountable for il, and then it disin-
genuously links the alleged corruption
of our politics with the conduct of the
government, as indicated in the quota
tion we have made.
1t is perfectly well-known fact that
the government of the United States
has been continually almost absolutely
free from taint Of dishonesty since it
was established. Its officers have never
robbed it, there have been no scandals
of consequence connected with it: its
affairs have been administered with
credit and honesty almost entirely;
petty thieving even among the isolated
and ill-paid officials is of exceedingly
rare occurrence; there is, in fact, not the
slightest ground for the suggested ac-
cusation Of the Spectator, that this gov
ernment is corrupt.
Nor can il be admitted that our poll
tics are more corrupt than are Eng
lands. The recent general election in
that country developed and revealed
modes of political corruption and meth
DDS Of vote buying and vote driving and
vote suppressing that have never been
attempted here, and that no politicians
here have developed nerve enough to
attempt. The government that was
supplanted by Mr.. Gladstone did an
act that the most rabid partisan caucus
in this country would shrink from even
proposing when It maneuyered TO pro-
rogue parliament at date that brought
the English borough elections on days
when large proportion Of the work
ingmen could not vote.
IL is no argument 70 say you're an
other, 10 be sure. But when the Spec
tdior begins TO talk about the corrup-
ton of the American government the
temptation to invite its attention to
some patent and undenied facts in the
very recent history Of its own country,
and suggest " ii that 1t would Nv well

The citizens Of PROVIDENCE and their
forefathers have talked terminal facili-
ties for the past twenty years, and we
haven't any terminal facilities yet. We
can continue the same process for the
next twenty years and we shall prob
ably attain the same benificent re-
suits.
There are in the city at least four or
CARNATIONS, supposed to be composed of
active business men, whose main object
is to advance the interests of PRovI-
DENcE. To some one of these organiza-
tions, we now say, "here is your golden
opportunity" Here is a chance for you
to emerge from that state of innocuous
desuetude which consists mainly in ex-
hausting your energies over barquets
and speeches until the small hours of
the night. Whichever one of the clubs
will seize hold of the question and solve
it or discover definitely why it can't be
solved will make for itself an imperish-
able name.
The New York & New England as
the lessee of the PROVIDENCE g. Spring
field inherits the latter's Obligations. In
July the bonds TO the extent of $500, 900
became due. Their payment was pro.
vided for by new bonds which were said
to be all sold. But some hostile interest
in the road obtained temporary in
junction and Connecticut's State Treas
urer will not allow the bonds to be
issued. Hence bonds which the city Of
PROVIDENCE has endorsed are overdue
and unpaid.
Does the city of PROVIDENCE have any
charity towards the New York & New
England? By no means. IL straight
way orders notice issued to sell the
PROVIDENCE q Springfield under its
right as mortgagee. That is business.
But what of terminal facilities? E? The
city of PROVIDENCE entered into
an understanding with the Ter
minal company by which cer-
tain stations, tracks, ETC., were to
be built with "all possible celebrity"
The city has filled in the cove and done
its part. But for more than six months
the terminal work has rested quietly.
Vague promises were made or supposed
to have been made, but il would require
the powerful lens of the Lick observa-
tory telescope 10 discover any appreci-
able advance that has been made in the
terminals.
Has the city taken any steps toward
securing forfeit for the thousands of
dollars of loss that this needless delay is
causing our citizens? The records of
the City Council show none. Why not?
The PROVIDENCE and Springfield is
earning 6 per cent on its stock and the
city could lose nothing by waiting until
notice had been given TO the
New York and New England. The
city's guarantee is amply secured by
'elf-sustaining property. But who shall
secure the shippers of PROVIDENCE
against the damage that is daily done
20 the city's interests by the delay i'm
he terminal facilities?

In one Of his humorous sketches Of a
prospectus for newly organized COR
poration, Mr.. "Bill Nye" solicited sub
scriptions to the capital stock and prom
ised that if money was sent he would
return receipt "bye-andbye." Mr..
Adlai T.. Stevenson seems to have adopt
ed the same plan in regard to his letter
OF acceptance. Perhaps he will learn
later that the American people are not
inclined to joke with so important a
question. The Democratic nomination
for the vice presidency was rendered
Mr. Stevenson by the representatives of
the Democratic party. The committee
rendered him q nomination second to
but one other in the gift of that party.
But he was SO pressed by engagements
that he had not even time to officially
say, IL thank You and accept" Had
not time" is poor excuse to offer. 1t
is the daily experience of the busy busi-
ness man that the more he has to do the
more he can seem TO find time to do.
Mr.. Stevenson Is no exception to the
rule and he should have made time"

THE STORY AND THE MAGAZINE.

hND
There is a story by French author
, in one of the great American magazines
IN many respects the greatest American
magazine, that will be received with
regret by great many people who are
not particularly squeamish regarding
their literature.
The story tells of the amours of a
poverty-striclsen young author, who
loved two women, and of the friendship
OF the rivals after the young man had
cled of consumption. Both loves of
this precious young scribbler were
Illicit, and wholly objectionable. The
pathos of the story is artificial, and
manifestly employed as cloak to thin
ly disguise the erotic nature of the body
and blood of the story. There is no
heorism displayed by anybody, except
such heroism as there might be in one
OF the women who had always led an
immoral life, renouncing the penniless
adventurer and sending him back to the
girl he had led into vile life, while she
took up again the rich roue who had
been lavishing his money upon ner
The poet died, and the two women,
having become passe, clung together in
their old age in a somewhat pathetic
but altogether ordinary fashion.
The story is the story of the unlaw-
full amours of passionate youth--noth-
ing more nor less. There are passages
in 1T, notably one, that would condemn
any newspaper to exclusion from de-
cent homes, so plainly suggestive of a
vileness too vile for speech is it.
This story is written by one of the
most celebrated of the later school of
French novelists, whose name has been
justly considered guaranty of high
art, and at least moderate cleanliness
it is published by magazine that has
never been suspected of leaning toward
anything that trenches upon the most
puritanic standard of literary morality.
Perhaps 1t is not necessary to refer TO
this French smutch upon the fair page
of our American periodical literature,
but it suggests what is perhaps of more
moment than the story itself-the grow
ing tendency TO sacrifice balance and
real literary quality to the parade of
noted names, to that bane of magazines
called hmeliness," and to the adver-
tising spirit of the times. All these
points are important to the publishers,
but they often pretty near spoil the
This story that we speak of would
have found it's way into
the pages of Harpers Magazine had it
not had the name of Francois Cope at
tached to it, and it is sadly out of place
there.
