As the date of our election is not far
remote, we presume few words upon
this most important question will not
be out of place. Recent revelation of
Wholesale bribery, boodlingandperiury
in several large cities of our country,
and i'll Mt least one Legislature have
served to call public attention sharply
to great and growing public evil and
to accentuate the fact that i'll the exer-
else of his elective franchise the Ameri-
can voter is frequently more influenced
by partisan feeling and prejudice than
by solicitnde for the public welfare.
The revelations have also given the
whole country several more very clear
and indubitable proofs Of the fact that
long continued domination of few
men IN the partisan government OF
cities and states is not IN the interest
of good government anywhere, nor
calculated to promote public interests
by insuring efficiency and integrity of
public officials. Indeed, whenever and
wherever coterie of self GpPfatIongH
political dictator are found who AFRO
gantly assumes the prerogatiye of
shaping the party policy and naming
the party nominees tho public Offices
inevitably became nero merchantnble
commodities in their hands, and con
ditions are Just about right to breed
all crimes and official oilenses. En-
periences seems really to have very
strong tendency to produce opposite
results. When the majority il 80 large
az to make the nomination practically
equivalent to election, the fierce fight
for the honors and emolument of public
office is confined to the primary or
convention and the most unscrupulous
of the aspirants usually become the
nominee eff his party. 1t il quite pro-
bable that herein may be found the
real germ Of official rascality, bribery,
boodling and dereication of duty on
the part of the offending official, having
extended many freely, and perhaps
incurred other obligations in obtaining
his office, seeks to reimburse himself
by bartering with Legislative Hobbies
and corporations for the betrayal of
his trust. But whether this is m ne
curate diagnosis Of the case or not, it
il, at all events, reasonably certain
that more attention to the moral fitness
and integrity of candidates for Office
on the part Of the voters, and less to
ultrapartisan basis andprejudice, would
at once put premium on official in
tegrity and fidelity, and general and
strict adherence to that kind Of policy
on the part Of the voters would quick
ly lift the standard of official conduct
to much higher level and soon work
radical reformation III all the elective
officers. ABE.

The profit of gold mine depends,
not on the amount of rock crushed nm
der the stamps but upon the amount of
gold which can be extracted from the
rock. In similar way the value of
the food which is eaten does not depend
on the quantity which is taken into the
stomach but upon the amount of nour-
ishment extracted from it by the organs
ofnntrition and digestion. When these
organs are diseased they fail to extract
the nourishment in sufficient quantities
to supply the needs Of the several or
gans Of the body, and these organs
cannot work without nourishment.
The result is heart "trouble," liver
trouble, and many another ailment.
