Changes Of Twenty Years. ]

William Allen White makes some re-
marks about Kansas politics which.
should be encouraging to reformers.
Less than twenty years ago. he
says, the United States marshal of
Kansas lay drunk and half naked in
the secretary of state Is office, and the
whole statehouse and nearly all the
reporters in, town came to look at him
and laugh, Less than twenty years
ago Kansas politicians kept their mis-
tresses on the payroll. Less than TWEEN
ty years ago man lost no standing
in Kansas by being known as a rail
road man in the legislature. Less than
twenty years ago the legislature ad-
iourned drunk and disorderly and the
members carried off the desks, and the
writer tried in vain to get one of them.
Times have changed and we have
changed with them. The things that
seem all right to this generation will
seem like larceny to the next. The
world is growing better. and if you
don't get better with it the fault is
yours.' -.
This is pretty plain and pretty true
talk. There is not a newspaper man
in Minnesota but could duplicate the
sentiment expressed by Mr.. White from
his own experience. Drunkenness, las.
civiousness and dishonesty were more
common in public office twenty years
ago than today. Men who were leaders
then would be regarded as lepers now
There is better standard of conduct
! There is less liberation of the double
! standard of virtue, one for the public
man, the other for the private man
| The senator of great abilities whose
private life is rotten finds now thai
he must give up his evil ways or give
up his position. He cannot serve two
masters, the people and the flesh.
There has come in public life, it il
true, another dangerous character
namely, the snug, clean, perfumed ant
correct agent of the corporation, whose
nice private character is cloak fol
his operations against public morality
But he is being dealt with. He is un
masked, and it will not be long before
he is endorsed. The world is, as Mr.
White suggests. growing better, but tn
tide does not sweep on unremittently
We see eddies and back waters in ou
! own vicinities that make us think tn
whole sea has set the other way; bu
it is not so. The world is growing
better, and the only way to- be trul,
prosperous is to grow better with it.
