seams that this reform battle can never
DO won until we succeed in srousing the
conscience Of the people. We must con-
vince majority that our present system
ID wrong, unjust, inhumsn; that it
dwsrfs and cripples the higher and
nobler attributes Of the individual; that
in reality in curses both the supposed
beneficiary the rich, and the oppressed
producers; that it is opposed to the
eternal law Of justice and love.
At first thought it would seem that il
would only DO necessary to present to
the people the method by which they
are being robbed, and the remedy to
cure the evil. But our industrial and
commercial system is 30 complex, 80
many various interests Interviewing,
that 1t becomes an easy task for a mer.
Csnsry, subsidized press, and corrupt
political leaders to confuse and mislead
the masses OF the voters.
They know and feel that something is
wrong, but instead Of intelligent invssti-
CATION, they accept without thinking the
assertion Of others and vote accordingly.
One cause Of this, and consequently
one Of the greatest difficulties in the way
OF progress and reform, is the fact that
many Of the more intelligent aud better
class Of oitizsns are disQusted with the
general corruption Of politics, the meth
DDS and means used, and, therefore, do
not exert the influence that their CHARGE
ter and intelligence would naturally give
them.
This resultsin the ssnselssa and useless
Topping around Of the voters, from one
tool of monopoly to the other, jumping
from the frying pan into the fire, then
back again.
So it seems to me that the most i'm
portsnt step to be taken by the reform
forces, is to try and arouse the con-
science and sense Of duty In that portion
Of mankind that are yet Indifferent to
the evils and dangers that threaten.
I would suggest the unions for prRcti-
cal progress as outlined in the Arena.
They are non-partisan, educational in
their character, and one feature is TO
make special efforts to interest the
clergy to induce them to preach ser.
mons on some Of the evils Of the day.
With all the discoursging signs Of the
times, I still have a firm conviction in
the moral forces, the virtue and patriot
ism latent in the American people, il
they can only be aroused out of their
desthly lethRrgy.
To arouse them to the dangers threat
ening, and to q sense Of their duties Rs
citizens by every means within our
power, should be our constant aim. Our
press, our speakers, and our individual
efforts should constantly aim to show
up the moral wrong Of the present sys-
tenn. Show the corruption and degrade
ton that flows from it in every direction.
The rich who derives his riches by
robbing others, although he may not
violate any statute law, violates the
eternal law Of God, and will suffer the
consequences. The man who, by his
indifference permits these things shares
his guilt. On the other hand, every
person who becomes unable to support
himself falls ss an additional burden on
society, and generally sinks lower and

CAMPAIGN FRAUDS.

intended TO prevent corrupt practices
during campaigns and elections, is, as
construed by republican committee, q
great farce. One object Of the law was
TO Let the public know just whore the
campaign money used by committees
came from, and another was to tell where
it went, and in that way guard against
corrupt practices.
According to Mr.. Islands CongtruC-
tion Of the law the committee treasurer
can file q statement saying, "RsCaived
from Secretary Bristow Sl8,438 SO; paid
to Chairman Leland S18,43393," and
that is sufficient. Treasurer P. ]. Bone
brake Of the republican state committee
did little better than that, however.
He reported the above amount received
from J. L. Bristow, while his dlsburs9.
ments are itemizsd to show that the
money was paid to different persons,
though what it was to pay for does not
always appear, For example, the state
ment shows that Chairman Leland drew
$l,860. What he did with it, his silence
implies, is none Of the publiC's business.
How much more money Mr.. Leland
handled and did not report to the treas
ureP is another question the public need
not inquire about He may have used
thousands Of dollars in an unlawful way
and the public would ne'sr be the wiser
by reading the statement fled with the
Shawnee county clerk.
It was very generous Of Treasurer
BoRebrake to give some OK the ex-
pense items, Statesman George L.
Douglass, the father of the law which
neCsssitsted the filing Of this state

BEN Glover sold his birthright for s45

$500 FOR printing. This was for the
filthy circular IN which he attacked DR..
Pitcher. o. Fl. Coulter, Of the Western
Veteran, got 500 for influencing the
