Thieves in High Places.

The people will begin to wonder after
a while whether there are not almost as
many thieves as honest men in the pub
lie Offices The number of such officials
who are being shown to be dishonest is
astonishingly large. Every few days the
newspapers contain an account of the dis
appearance of a state treasurer or some
other public official with public funds
And yet the percentage of these officials
who are punished for their crimes is re-
markedly small.
An investigating committee of the New
Jersey legislature is now exposing the
crookedness of some of the officials of
that state. The evidence shows that
two of them have been putting large sums
of the states money into their pockets
by charging the state about twice the mar
ket price for articles they purchased for
different departments of the state gov
eminent. For instance, it is found they
collected from the state over $4,000 for
articles of furniture which could have
been purchased for $1,000. This is only
one of the many crooked items that have
been discovered.
Will these wrong-doers be prosecuted?
The people demand they shall be- but
it is not at all improbable that they will
never be mOlested. They have infuen-
tial friends who will protect them if it
is possible to do so.
There should be no leniency shown pub
lie officials who use their positions to
plumber the people. To show them mercy
is to encourage dishonesty among public
servants. These two officials of New
Jersey stood so high in the public esti-
nation that they were able to rob the
public without exciting supicion. 1t ought
to be made apparent that they do not
stand too high to be reached by the law
which they have violated.

A striking example OF republican lead
ers blowing hot and blowing cold with
the same breath is offered by the New
York Tribune anent the outbreak in Cuba.
Through a long leading editorial which
leans palpably to the side OF the revo-
luuonists. the Tribune blames the Ameri-
can administration for the failure Of Gu
ban revolutions. II is plainly the de-
sire Of the Tribune. in this editorial
leader. that the revolutionists should re-
ceive the moral If not the physical support
Of the United States government. New
ertheless. on the same page and in the
same issue Of the paper the Tribune says
the revolution is being run for the pur-
pose Of transferring a lot Of money "out
of the hands Of Cuban sympathizers and
into the pockets Of a few ambitious ad-
venturers and demagogues with whom
the desire for profit was greater than
the impulse of patriotism" Presumably
the Tribune would like to have this gov
eminent support these adventures and
demagogues' in Cuba, as il had demanded
support for adventures and demagogues
in Hawaii.
