There is another Anglicized American

ENGLISH PHARISAISM.

The American people have had an ex-
emplification of British insolence and
pharisaism within the past week from
Lord Salisbury, the English Tory prem
Ter, and William T. Stead, the editor of
the London Review of Reviews, which
shows the amazing effrontery of Eng
lishmen in meddling in American at
fairs instead of Winding their own bus
mess.
Lord Salisbury, in violent attack on
the London county council, which is the
creation of his own ministry, took &C.
casion to comment on the recent mu-
njcipal campaign in Greater New York,
and told his hearers that they must
take warning from Gotham, where
good citizens have fallen out and left
Tammany in full control of vast sys-
TEN of centralized administration. He
favored the curtailment of the powers
OF the London county council. lest 1t
may breed corruption like the Tammany
organization. The speech was delivered
In the presence OF Tory politicians and
was received with rapturous delight.
The burly prime minister spoke for
ninety minutes, and all because the
council was taxing land values In Lon
don where Salisbury has considerable
landed property and which he does not
want to be taxed. Like the wealthy
men Of America, the British aristocracy
do not care to support their own gov
eminent.
w. T. Stead will issue book dealing
with Greater New York entitled "Satan's
Invisible World Displayed; or, Despair
Ing Democracy" In which he holds up
the American metropolis to the execra-
ton Of mankind as a sink Of iniquity
and cesspool of political corruption
and dishonesty. 1t is intended to be a
companion piece to "Ir Christ Came to
Chicago" book wherein this egotisti-
cal Johnny Bull writes up the filthy
ahodes of vice and dissipation in the city
on Lake Michigan.
There is no doubt of the existence Of
vice and political corruption IN the two
great American cities, but it is like the
devil quoting scripture to have an Eng
lishman lecture us on honesty and NOR
ality, when London, Liverpool and other
English cities need reformation in that
direction. Nobody but an Englishman
has the penchant for issuing such OBJ
scene publications as Stead's book. He
was at one time arrested and imprisoned
for publishing obscenity in the Pail Mall
Gazette, now owned by VIM. Waldorf
Aston. He writes for filthy lucre" and
he knows that his salacious revelations
will be read with avidity by the lewd
arstocracy Of England, who are motor
ious for their lubricity.
Steads sketches Of American cities
should be boycotted in this country,
where he expects an enormous sale for
them. The newsmen who handle his
poisonous literature should be made to
understand that they cannot do 50 with
impunity. Such stuff is not fit for de-
cent people to read. Let Cockneys per-
use and pay for it, but as for Americans,
they should eschew the communicating
trash with indignation.

theft in Chicago He stole, almost bod :
lily, sermon from Sturgeon, and deiy-
cred 1t from his pulpit. The Chicago
Times printed both sermons side by
side and proved the theft beyond u,,es-
ton of peradventure. What was Lor-
timers excuse? He said he had read
the Sturgeon sermon and absorbed It bv
a process which he called unconscious
mental cerebration." Oddly enough Pet
ers gave the same explanation of his
offering and purloining. But no fine
names can change the nature of the
offence. 1t is theft pure and simple. It
Is also an act Of dishonesty and inn
position on the part of the men who
are commissioned to impress upon the
peoples minds the solemn import of the
injunction: Thou shalt not steal"
