KNAvERY OF REPUBLICANS.
Legislative Corruption for Organized
Wealth.

Conservative men and conservative
newspapers hitherto affiliated with
the republican party are BEGINNING
to 1econize the corruption OF that or
ganization. Gov. Pingree has given
his views Oh the situation and has
been attacked tiercely by the subsi-
died press as republican renegade.
Now the United States Investor, one
of the most influential Of the tinan-
cial papers in this country, speaks
serious words of warming. In an
article discussing the % litical situa-
ton the Investor has the following to
say concerning the republican
party:
"Here we have knavery pure and
simple. In a word Legislative cor
rnption in the interests Of organized
wealth! Where is the person who will
venture to deny this? Was it MANY
years ago that one Of the leading bus
mess men of Boston the promoter of
large schemes for the public benefit
frankly admitted under investment
that he had spent large sums in OBJ
tanning necessary legislation from the
legislatures of Massachusetts, excus
ing himself with the plea that such a
course was abo!utely necessary"
,,fk
ance Of parts IN newspaper. 1t is
not even m argument made by the
editor OF the Investor. 1t is a state
ment of historical fact proved by the
records Of court Of law. But this is
not all the live itor says. 1t points
the moral in the following strong and
vivid words:
"Row much longer can the repub-
lie tolerate such a state Of affairs with
IMMUNITY? The concentration of
wealth in a few hands and it's employ
ment in influencing legislation are
phenomena which have been care
fully studied in the past. The his
tory Of the Roman empire affords an
interesting study in this direction.
Or perhaps the career of France prior
to the revolution would be nore
pleasing"
When 81 financial newspaper, nat
urally inclined to favor the party
pledged to serve the money power,
sees the danger which threatens this
country, is it lot time for the people
to assert their power? Indeed, the
time Is ripe, and the people are not
closing their eyes. In 1900 there will
be revolt against corruption and the
republican party will be swept out of
power.

who obtained passes. and eight men are
