DO NOT BE FOOLISH.
The Foolish Man Just Votes to Beat the
Other Fellow, Regardless of Right.

There are great many foolish
things done in politics, both State
and Local, but nothing quite as
foolish as a man voting to keep a
party in power, just because it will
make his Democratic neighbor feel
bad.
What makes his Democratic
neighbor feel bad2 The reckless
management of public affairs,
the multiplication of officers, the
increase of official salaries, and the
work of grating contractors and
officials.
Why does it make him feel bad. ?
Because these things add to the
burdens of government and to the
amount of taxes he must pay.
But they are not added to the
Democratic alone. The Republi-
cation, too, has to help shoulder it.
What would you think of the
man who after unlocking his
Democratice neighbours stable, SO
that his horse might be stolen,
would leave his own stable door
unlocked for the accommodation of
the same thief?

This proved to Mr.. Gemeunder
that they had never looked at his
books at all, otherwise they would
have seen that they were kept as
the experts insisted they should
be kept.
The truth is that the System
originated with Mr.. Gemeunder
years ago and it was only recently
that the State Auditors Office got
on to the system, and then they
forgot to tell the experts about
Gemeunder's books.
But the graft come along all
right. For the inspection Of the
Columbus City Hall offices the ex-
perts charged and collected $278.
These men would be lucky to get
positions as book-keepers at 500
a month.
But they don't care to be book
keepers at that price when they
can get from 500 to $50 a day as
inspectors. The people, however,
have TO pay the bills all the same.

THE BOSS SYSTEM.
1t Beats the Old Fashioned System Called
Craftsmanship"

There is wide difference be-
tween political units and political
eunuchs.
One counts for something; the
the other counts for nothing hich
it is supposed to stand for.
This is one of the splendid
achievements of the boss system of
politics. 1t beats the old fashion
ed and ahtiquated system called
statemansbip.
OF recent years a large number
of local and other boards have
been made, the appointments be-
ing delegated to some one in the
State House at Columbus.
AT first twas intended that all
members of the board should be-
long to one party. But it was
discovered that this would not
weaken the opposite party as niue.

LOCALIZED GRATING.
The Atrocities Are Just Being Realized by
the Citizens of the State.

The atrocities Of legalized graft
ing being carried on under the laws
passed or amended during the last
ten years, by the five Republican
legislatures which had two-thirds
or three-fourths majorities, are
just beginning to be realized.
The Bureau of Uniform Account
ing, which is conducting the polit-
ical campaign Of State Auditor
Guilbert, under the pretense of
compelling public officials to be
honest, is one of the most out
rageous grating machines ever set
in motion in the graft ravaged
Buckeye State.
One day recently two or three of
them descended on the city offices
of Columbus, the most of which
are held by Republicans--the Sec
retary of the Sinking Fund Com
mission and the Treasurer being
Democrats.
They pulled and hauled the
books and claimed to be examin-
ing them for portions of twn or
three days, and then reported that
all the money was accounted for

proof, by refusing to vote the
ticket forced on them by the
bosses.
There is another equally FOOLS h
thing in politics. That is for a
man to refuse to vote for his party
candidates, though they be men
of the highest character, because
he personally dislikes some. one
who may be prominent in his
own party.
This has had much to do in
electing State officers and Legisla-
lures who have put the State into
partisan manacles, and SO gerry
wandered it for the judiciary, that
it is impossible for the Democrats
to elect more than two Common
Pleas Judges out of seventy-six.

Colonel William Peters Hepburn Of
Iowa, one of the most renowned gladi-
ators that ever appeared in the house
of representatives, has won many vic
tories in that arena, but he met his
Waterloo about midnight March 2. He
is chairman Of the great committee ON
interstate foreign. commerce, which is
gradually gathering to itself nearly all
legislative power. From that commit
tee he reported bill to establish what
he called a leprosarium in plain
words, leper colony-in New Mexico
or Arizona. At least that was what it
practically amounted to.
At once there rose so wild q yell
AS all the flends from heaven that fell
Had pealed the banner cry OF hell
Dozens of members were on their
feet waving their arms In air, shaking
their fists and believing "Mr. Speak
er!" at the tops of their voices. Rhody
Of New Mexico and Wilson of Arizona
had on their war paint and poured hot
shot into Colonel Pete. That great hu-
manitarian, Joseph @. Sibley of Penn
sylvania, protested vigorously. Judge
Sims Of Tennessee made the rafters
ring with indignant rhetoric. John
Sharp Williams took up the gauntlet
for the territories. Colonel Hepburn,
driven to the wall. fought doggedly for
his bill. One of the most exciting
scenes Of the session ensued The plan
for a leprosarium was showed under
by a ten to one vote or by figures
somewhere Of that proportion. The

mastered all subjects pertaining to its
jurisdiction. He has long made a
fight OH Che armor plate trust, the very
existence of which has been repeatedly
and violently denied. He has ham,
mered on the proposition that the gov
ernment should build an armor plate
plant of Its own III order to escape the
extortions of the trust. Republicans
have voted 1t down time and time
again. March In q running fire de-
bate with Mr.. Foss, chairman of the
naval committee, over Vandiver's prop
osition to investigate and find out If
there is an armor plate trust Vandiver
forced Foss to practically admit that
there is a trust. While the Republic
ans voted down his proposition for an
investigation, the Republicans voting
solidly against his proposition and the
Democrats solidly in favor of 1t, Van
diver really got out Of Foss on cross
examination the information he was
after and came off with flying colors.
The existence Of the trust being ad-
mitted, there Is no valid or even plausi-
BILE reason why the administration
should not institute proceedings, both
civil and criminal, against the armor
plate trust. Vandiver made the way
plain and easy. In the entire brood of
trusts there is not n worse bloodsucker
than the armor plate trust, and it ought
