At this time that most needed
by our people is more moderation
and unselishness in our politics;
greater purity in legislation; less
partyism and more patriotism !;
greater devotion to duty than to
personal gains on the part of pub
lie men; less anxiety for a re-
nomination and a more earnest
conservation to present duty; a
fruitful desire to accomplish pub
lie good; high aims in official
life; a broader love of country
and of liberty that is not license;
honest purposes and the coura-
geous will through which they are
accomplished. A good govern
ment wisely administered is the
last, best gift to mankind.

This system of bounties to
trusts and syndicates, as embod-
led in the bill presented by those
notorious corruptionists, Mark
Hanna, of Ohio, and Tom Plat,
of New York, is proclaimed as
the paramount administration
measure - one that must go
through this congress whatever
else fails. It stipulates for &c.
600, 600 a year for thirty years.
It proposes to mortgage the future
Of the country to the extent of
s270, 100000. The beneficiaries
could easily afford a million to
elect Mckinley and Mark Hanna
is the leech to get it.
