President Roosevelt's call upon the
country to exercise all its moral force
to ferret out and convict all dishonest
officials in the government service, has
received practically no responce. 1t
fell like wet blanket. However, it is
most praiseworthy, if he means it. 1t
is very difficult to believe that he does
not mean it. If he accomplished his
purpose, it would be reputation
enough, and evidently he wants to dis
tinguish himself, and have his name in
scribed on the pages of history and his
bust reared in the Hall of Fame as a
fearless man. However, it seems to
me that he is trying to drive railroad
spike with tack hammers, or taffy
sticks. Knox as Attorney General
and Payne as Postmaster General, are
not the kind of implements to use for
his purpose. He needs, and he should
Immediately proceed to get, good sub
stantial sledges, like William Jennings
Bryan and Tom l.. Johnson. The APP
pointment of Mr.. Bryan as Attorney
General would receive the hearty APP
proval of all patriotic Americans, and
would prove such evidence of good
faith that no one could dispute.

There is something wrong with the
moral force in the United States; Ell
Their it is weak or misapplied and mis-
directed. For instance, tremendous
amount of moral energy is now being
expended toward lifting Reed Smoot
out of the United States Senate, and
none whatever toward convicting the
men who have been robbing the United
States in the Postal Department. Very
likely, wives of postal thieves have
signed the petition to lift Mr.. Smoot.
In civil life, we find that Johnny Nor
gan and Charlie Schwab have been
guilty of obtaining millions of money
by lying and cheating, and the leaders
of our moral force call it shrewd bus
mess transactions, and they connive at
and condone the same. General Miles
exposed the embalmed beef contracts,
and he is relegated to private life with
out "kiss my elbow or thank YOU"
and General Egan, who was head-over-
heels i'm the contracts, is considered a
martyr to the cause of his country.
There is something rotten with our
moral force.

ED. COURIER:

ED. COURIER:
Former Commander Hobson OF the
Navy has prepared bill for suomis-
sion to Congress for the expenditure
of nearly three billion dollars during
the next Is years to make the United
states navy the most powerful on
earth-rather, on water. By the time
all these war vessels are at work burn
ing coal, the price will go up SO high
that our manufacturers will not be able
to compete with foreigners, and the
big war vessels will find no American
interests to protect. England is sui
fering already from that very cause.
The big navy milestone dangling TO
Uncle Sans neck is chatting the old
man already, and he will hardly stand
much more weight.
OF a dozen postal grafters accused,
it is said they were all appointed to
office during President Cleveland's adj
ministration, except one, who was ap-
pointed by President Roosevelt. 1t is
said that the system of organized COR
ruption began in 1893 1t is rather dis
couraging to the average American to
be informed that it took ten years to
discover a regularly organized and sys-
tematically carried-out system of steal
ing. However, it is a condition and
not a theory that we are facing now,
and, if the administration can land the
thieves behind prison bars within the
next ten years, the American people
may not lose all hope for the future of
the Republic. Postmaster General
Payne did not discover that the govern
ment had been robbed of over a mil
lion dollars by its postal employees. 1t
was a soreheaded discharged employee
who gave it away, and then Mr.. Payne
cody informed the country that it
was all 'shot air. 1t is therefore plain
that Payne would rather have conceal
Payne is practical politician, and re-
ceived his appointment on the ground
that at least one practical politician
should be in the Presidents cabinet,
and as a practical politician he does
not believe that any good can come to
the party by exposing the frauds He
remembers the old Democratic war cry
of Turn the rascals out and let us see
the books" However, it is exceeding
ly unfortunate for us poor Democrats
that after turning the rascals out,
Grover, the Fat, should have put new
set in. It's just our luck.

ROCK ISLAND BOYS FIG URE
IN CLASS RUSH AT ARMOUR

Roy Jens and Fred BlenkinsopP, two
Rock Island boys, are told of in to-
days Chicago papers as having led a
class rush at Armour institute yester-
day. 1t is said the freshman class
had been subjected to indignities at
the hands of the sOphs and decided to
have revenge. The battle took place
yesterday and the sophs, with Roy
Jens at the head, for time had the
advantage. Then Fred Blenkinsopp
formed the freshmen and from that
time the fight was nearly equal, and
the upper class men who had viewed
the scrimmage declared the bout a
draw. There were no broken bones,
but many received bruises and had
their clothing torn.
