rupt practices act in the several states

rupt practices act in the several states
would act as an incentive to all the
friends of candidates to be watchers at
the polls and detectives to discover DO
litical corruption.
Not content with furnishing the mon
ey to buy voters, the corporations that
have special interests depending upon
legislation also disburse enormous
sums to purchase city councils, legisla-
lures and even congress. The lobby
lists who barter for the votes Of the
representatives of the people are quite
as dangerous as the primal bribers Of
the voters and more difficult to con-
Wet and eradicate under the present
system, for their work is done with but
little chance of exposure, unless the
thieves fall out or some one turns
states evidence.
Voters should be impressed with the
fact that all these vast sums that are
spent on political debauchery have
been first taken from themselves under
the form Of legalized robbery. By pre-
venting this corruption they will at the
same time protect their own pocketa
In a short time the many would have
a fair share of what now goes to the
few and national honesty would re-
suit.

Harmless rs a Sucking Dove on tn
Subject of Tariff Reform.

Harmless us "A Sucking Dove on the
Subject of Tariff Reform.
The reported capture of President
Roosevelt by the stand patters has
been verified by himself, for he recon-
menGs no revision of the tari!f in his
message to congress. Perhaps the pres
ident felt compelled to he silent be-
cause of the promises made by the Of
fcials Of the Republican committee to
the life insurance magnateS and others
that if they would subscribe to the
campaign fund the tariff woul,. not be
meddled With. That the money from
the life insurance companies must have
tainted the White House atmosphere
and acted as a soporitic on the nation
al trust buster" is probable or tariff re-
form would have been urged, for the
tariff is the mother Of trusts, according
to a good Republican authority.
There is also other evidence that this
tainted campaign fund has had a dis
astrous effect on the presidents reform
ideas, for he makes but q feeble refer
ence to political corruption. But there,
again. the president found his hands
tied, for to denounce political corrup-
ton would be to accuse so many Of the
leaders Of the Republican party that it
would add to its present demoraliza-
ton.
The president when free to express
his real feelings is as bold as q lion
against corruption and grating. but
with the tanning process that Speaker
Cannon and the other stand pat lead
ers have been putting him through he
is as harmless rs a sucking dove on
the subjects that pinch their cornS. It
is to be hoped that the president has
not really surrendered to the stand pat
tiers and quailed before the exposure
Of the rottenness Of his party, but the
tainted atmosphere of the White House
has certainly not been cleared by the
recommendations in the message. The
president would find the whole country
behind him, except the special inter
ests protected, if he would send in to
congress Il ringing message for tariff
reform and recommend that n strenu-
u measure be passed to stem corrup-
ton. In this, as with other Democrat
ic reforms he may adopt, he would
have the hearty cooperation Of the
pomncrots

People Should Know,

In spite of the peremptozy orders of
President Roosevelt that his cabinet
must refuse to talk to newspaper men
about cabinet discussions the news
leaks out. This Republican plan of try
ing to keep secret from the people in
formation of their affairs will not and
should not be the way to run a repub-
lie in which every voter should have
an equal voice and the right to know
the facts. The only exception to the
rule should be the discussion of rela-
lions with foreign countries, and that
for obvious reasons should be kept
from publication.
