How the Public
Interest Loses Gu

hhtCiCoA LOoCo Oh
There is a great deal of
encouragement manifested
from time to time because
measures for the public ad-
vantage or carrying right
and justice to the commun-
ity fall down when opposed
to private advantage. People
wonder why the public in
terests are 20 severely neg
lected while every cheap
skate that feeds on the COM
munity gets his private graft
done or protected to the dis
advantage OF people gener-
ally. Yet, when you reflect
for a moment, the reason is
plain. There is no money in
working for the good of the
community, while your graft
er tucks away into his breech-
es pocket the fruit Of his sue
cessful getaway. Every
body's business is nobody 5
business, and while the we'll
intentloned in the commun-
lty are ready enough TO com
mend your reformer or pub
lic-spirited worker, it Is in
the cheap coin of commenda-
tion only that they will pay
and this will not pass at the
grocer's or the coal dealers.
The average person praises
public-sp pirit very highly and
wonders that more of it is not
shown, until you touch him
IN the pocket book, when his
loud believing praises sink
TO an inconsplcuous murmur
as he steps back to let his
neighbor be nearest to the
subscription list. Oh, yes;
the public interest loses out
while the private interest
gets there. One is a money
losing business, while the
other pats money in a mans
purse.

A Model Constitution

(W. j. Bryan in the Commoner)
The Oklahoma constitu-
ion is in print and The Com
moner ventures the opinion
that it is the best state con
stitution in the United States
1t will be discussed in detail
later, but this tribute il Of
fered now. 1t Is a peoples
constitution, and the corn
field lawyers who wrote it
to use the phrase coined
by the New York Tribune
have reason to be proud of
their work. 1t ought to be
ratified by a unanimous vote
and the Democratic party
whose representatives framed
it deserves a splendid victory
as an endorsement. 1t is a
model constitution-the best
in the nation.
