stated as 146, ,256; and concerning the
total of the Venal vote the Professor
observed:
Since the proportion between the city and
country population included is, as nearly
as may be, that Of che whole state, it fol-
lows that we have here basis for an esti-
mate of the aggregate Of Venality in the
entire state. If this be so, there are 1884
purchasesble voters in Connecticut.
Twenty-six thousand three hundred
and ninety-four purchsseable votes
out of a total of 746,258! This is GER
tainly a startling revelation - star
tling not only in the magnitude Of the
evil, but in the detail and the reha-
bility of The information. Is it not
time for patriotic Americans to lay
ASIDE their party prejudices long
enough to give a thought to the
dangers that threaten their liberties
and the very existence of the repub-
lie? Is there any good reason to sup
pose that the facts are materially
different in other states than in Con-
necticut? Is there not, IN fact, every
Indication that the evil extends to
every state? We have but to con-
slider the millions of money used by
the two great political parties in every
campaign, which could by no posi-
bility be required for legitimate ex-
penses, in order to be assured of thus
fact. Let us then pause and reflect
whittier we are drifting.
Having now glanced at the magni-
tude of the venal vote as revealed by
Prof. McOook's Investigations, it is
no less important that we study the
character Of it and the chief infu-
ences by which it is controlled; be-
cause it is to these elements that We
must look for an indication of public
policy with reference to the impend-
ing danger. The tables published
exhibit two classifcatlons, one based
upon nationality and the other upon
habit. It will suffice to state of the
first classification that the percentage
of venal voters of foreign extraction
Is very largely in excess Of that of
American stock We shall not here
take the space to state the varied pro-
portion of the several nationalities
as shown in the tables. The second
classification, that based upon habit,
it is necessary to notice more in de-
tail. In the first table, relating to
rural town, but rs per cent. of the
total vensl vote is classed as temper
ate, while 75.5 is classed as intemper-
ate, and every drunkard in the town
without exception was VenRl. These
last were of American and Irish ex-
traction.
In the second table 12.2 per cent.
of the total venal vote is classed as
temperate; 69.4 per cent. as intem-
perate, and, as in the former table,
every drunkard is found to be venal.
In the third table 3.4 per cent. of
the total vensl vote is classed as tenn
perate, 433 as total sbstainers, 429
as Incorporate, while III of the total

changes of party policy are necessary,
first, in order to achieve lasting sue
cess politically, and, second, in order
that such success, when attained, may
be of material benefit to the masses
of the people. We do not expect a
uniform acceptance Of our opinions
Of the necessity of the changes we
shall indicate unless we are able to
satisfy the judgment of the people
upon the subject. 1t is to this end
that we invite attention to the facts
we have to submit. "It is a condi-
too and not theory that con-
fronts u.s."
AS indicated in the first article un-
der thus title, we propose this week to
consider the subject Of venality in the
politics of the present day, and Incl
dentally the influences by which the
vensl vote is mostly controlled. Un-
fortunately reliable statistical infor-
nation upon the subject Is not as
abundant or as complete as could be
desired, but such as we have is of 80
alarming a character that it should
Immediately arrest the attention of
every patriotic American, irrespective
Of past or present party afiliatlon. If
American liberty and American insti-
tutlons are to be preserved, there is
no time to be lost ere the better ele-
ments of society, without regard to
party, unite their efforts for that pa
triotic purpose. While we recognize
the necessity Of party organizations,
and while we believe the fundsmen-
tai doctrines o. the Peoples party
must continue as the basis of the
organization which is destined to con-
troll the affairs of government in the
near future, we likewise believe that
patriotism should be superior to
party, and that no consideration
should continue to bind men to any
organization that shall refuse to ac-
cept such principles as are absolutely
essential to purity in politics, and the
ultimate suppression ofthe influences
that are known to be controlling the
venal elements which are rapidly un-
dermining the very foundations of
American liberty. Ignorance and
partisan prejudices have too long con-
trolled us all in politics; and it is be-
cause of the fact that we have blindly
voted for party, regardless of its pol
icy, and too frequently in utter igno-
rance of the tendency of that policy,
that we find ourselves where we are
to-day. 1t is time for us to cease this
folly. It is time for us to cease to be
partisans and learn to be true Ameri-
cans.
The oaly systematic and accurate
investigation Of the extent of venal
voting of which we have any present
knowledge, is that of Prof. J. j. Nc
Cook, whose conclusions upon the sub
iect are published IN the Forum Of
September, 1892. The Forum copy

TWO WOMEN
One Was in a Box and One Was on the
Stage.
From the New York World.

From the New York World.
A few nights since two women occupying
vastly different spheres of life met and even
smiled at each other at a performance of the
"Black Crook" One of the woman belongs
to what is commonly known in this city as
the smart set. She wore very we'll fitting
dinner dress and white kid gloves and
black opera bonnet. She came to the
theater late and sat in a stage box with
Sc Seral friends who belonged TO the same
station in life as herself.
The other woman made her appearance
In the third act. She was a very small part
OF the AMMONIA march, and she wore
brown tights and q steel breAstplate. Sne
also carried q sword as she was a lieu ensnt,
nat Is II AmaZ0ns have lieutenants For
some time she marched AID counter
marched with the other girls, and vas only
conspicuous from the fact thai she with
several others shared the honor of carrying
a sword instead of spear.
But there came time whsn she had TO
march quite alone to the very ed Ee of the
stage and stand for several minutes within
per aps yard Of the woman in the box
10 The audience at large the girl was still a
part or the glitUerlng stage picture, but to
the people in the box the girl in the brown
tights and the armor was most conspicuous.
1t is quite pro able the woman in the box
had never been SO close to a fake Amazon
or woman In tights before in her life.
She could .have reached out her hand
and touched the Amazon. and the idea
struck the woman In the box as humorous.
so humorous that she smiled and attracted
the attention OF her friends by pointing
with her fan at the figure placed so prom
nently by the stage manager before them.
And then the men and the women in the
box studied all the details of the girls CO.'S
tune and figure
The woman in the brown tights became
painfully conscious Of the attention she at
tracted, and even through her makeup 10
could be seen that she was blnsniug vio-
Iently. In a moment more the ewes of the
two women met. The woman in the box
main aimed her gaze OF amused curiosity,
and the woman on the stage, In her embar-
rassment, smiled console 0 tIously back at
the woman In tne box.
Then it was the latter's turn to blush.
She cast one indignant glance at the Anna
ION and then at the man who set next her,
She also hid her anger at the indignity
which she imagined had been put upon her
by holding her fan before her face. The
Amazon continued to stand In her position,
looking stolidly ahead.
The look of rebuke from the woman Of
the world had hal its effect, and the ewes Of
the Amazon were some what moist when she
at last turned upon her heel and walked
away from the stage box. When the play
was over the woman in the box aud her
friends went to supper in an uptown restau-
rant, where the audacious smile OF the
Amazon was forgotten over warm things
to eat and cold things to drink. It is posi-
Die that the Amazon also had something to
eat In sixth avenue oyster house, and ID
Is equally possible that she did not, but
went home and cried herself to sleep.
