WHY DEVERY WON.


Harper's Weekly.
There is cold comfort for the reformer I'm
the sweeping victory of William s. Devery
for the office of leader in the Ninth dis
trict. but there is an undoubted lesson in
his triumph which all reformers will do
well to take to heart. Reformers who
mean to accomplish something must come
out of the 5-o'clock-tea atmosphere by
which they delight to surround themselves
and physically put their shoulder to the
wheel Mr.. Devery's victory, as we all
know. is not the reward OF virtue, but an
actual tangible return for solid, hard
work. Not for moment has his vigilant
eye been taken from the task by which he
was confronted; his hand has not left the
tiller by which his craft has been guided
for a single instant, and his personality
which, after all, is one of the chief factors
Of mans success or defeat, has been ALL
pervasive throughout the campaign. IL in
not fair TO assume that the Endorsement
which Mr.. Devery has received from his
district is Endorsement OF 'sDeveryisrn {"
SO much as a certification from his neigh
DORIS mat as man he Is good enough to
represent them in the councils OF the party,
and he has achieved this distinction by go-
ing out into the highways himself. and. by
the compelling power of his way of HIS
manner. winning the regard OF the voters.
There is none OF the dilettante about Dew
cry. and as he has won out as the man
VINO works is bound TO do sooner or later:
ana while we must all in a measure regret
the triumph of one who, Justly or uniustly
In the eye OF the general public is the SYM
Dol OF deplorable things, II this victory
serves as corrective OF the Righteousness
Of the reformer IL will not be without good
results. There Is no record OF the precise
methods of Hercules In his task OF ancient

exorbitance of provision bills. IL is more
likely that he plunged into the mess and
did yeoman's service himself There Is A
deal Of suggestion i'm this fact for our re-
formers. in Office and out OF IL. and the re-
cent victory OF Mr.. Devery merely serves
TO emphasize the moral
