Mrs. Bowser, you are no politician,
of course, but you may possibly under
stand that just at this moment the
politics of this country is corrupt be-
yond comparison"
81 think l understand that" she re-
piled.
Unless a change is made for the bet
ter we shall be disgraced before the
eyes of the world as a nation. What
we want is a wave of reform
And you are going to start the
wave?" she sarcastically queried.
Il am-that is, l probably am.
The gentlemen are coming here this
evening to talk about it. If, in their
judgment, | am the proper person, l
shall have the honor of setting the
wave in motion. l am for honest poll
tics and a pure administration"
81 thought it was some such non
sense" she slowly replied. "On three
or four occasions you have mixed in
politics and made a donkey of your
self, but it seems you haven't got
enough"
There you go! That's youi" he ex-
claimed in tones which jumped the
cat to the floor. IF l had a plan to
put a Bible into the hands of every
heather on earth, you'd oppose it. I
was an ass to say anything to you
about it."
Mr. Bowser, you have been voting
for 80 years Have you ever known
honest reform in politics.
"Of coures>I have"
Never! There is no such thing.
It's the same thing over and over
again each year. If anybody has made
you believe that you can bring about
any change for the better, they have
taken you for a fool. Why, when they
wanted you to run for alderman in
this ward on a reform ticket. they
wanted a fund Of $1,000 to buy up
votes and pay saloon bills!"
But this is different" he protested.
What is wanted is moral influence.
Let Is good men band together to
purify politics, and the movement will
spread from State to State in a week.

character. l am simply to lend my

conclusion that goodness didn't pay.
That's where he made a mistake
weighing a ton, as all the world knows.
History has told you his career. He
walked right into the house as a first
o and kicked over the churn and
upset the flour barrel and then de-
manded a quarter of his astonished
mother and went off on a spree. From
that day on he was a cuss on wheels.
He painted the old town red every
night in the week and got up next
Of a broken heart, and he sold her fat
irons and quilt frames to bet on a
chariot race. His father was found
dead with tears in his eyes, and young
Nero sold off the chickens and pigs and
the old homestead to back a gladiator.
There was no holding him down except
when the Roman ~eonstables sat on
him. He became a sort of holy terror
to the whole Roman empire, and when
he finally died there was such general
satisfaction that the factory whistles
footed and the wages of the hired girls
were advanced a dollar a month.
During his career Nero wan in
champagne, reveled in quail on toast
and wore the best toga in the empire.
He had money in every pocket, adj
mirers on every corner, AID high
rolled to beat the band. And yet what
did it all amount to? He died poor
and disgraced, and history hasn't got
through abusing him yet. He had
traded off an orange grove for a cab
bage patch. l say to you all, and I
say to that squint-eyed, lantern jawed
man in the third row in particular,
that whoever figures that badness is
a good investment is going to get left.
