YOUNG MEN IN POLITICS.
From the New York Evening News. I,

From the New York Evening News Ind
Dirty politics" is a phrase in very COM
mon use nowadays. But why is il com.
mon, and why is IT appropriate? Simply
because many people treat the science and
art of government as they treat no other
science. art. profession or vocation. II
men refused to become lawyers because
some barristers practice barratry, tho
PROFESSION would ultimately be nothing
but an association of corruptionis,s II
men of business capabilities refused To
go into the dry goods or the grocery trade
because some dishonest men engaged in
the same lines the whole trade would. I'm
time be in the hands of dishonest men
only. II men of means refused to become
manufacturers because scoundrcls opcr-
atcd large mills all such industries would
he controlled by fraudulent methods.
Yet tens OF thousands of citizens not
only capable of entering politics, but
whose unqualified duty it is to do so, hold
aloof because they claim that the science
Of government has fallen into unworthy
hands. Why don't they come forward and
take il out of such hands? They have
every opportunity that the right of law
and the law OF right can give them The
reason seems to be suggested by the fact
that the graduating classes OF most CO.
educational schools are composed of nine
girls to one boy. The other boys are
probably at work, seeking wealth. The
men who decry politics as dirty" etc,
are the men who are so absorbed In them
selves, in their business interests and in
their hot haste to accumulate money. that
they wilfully neglect politics and leave Il
to others. Morally. such men are just az
reprehensible as the politicians whom they
decry; because the one enters politics for
what he can make out Of it, and the other
neslects II In order to make more out of
his private business.
