GOOD CITIZENS WAKING UP.

The bribery business is on the wane
In many places citizens no longer wink
knowingly as a member of the legisla-
ture or city councilman who has sud
denly acquired wealth passes along the
street. Instead, they seem bent on solv-
ing the question of Where did he get
it?" Some damaging testimony has
been adduced in the legislative inquiry
now going on in New York, and if Gov
ernor Hughes has his way, no guilty
man viii escape unless the statute of
limitations should happen to bar prose-
cution.
The most recent and startling bribery
sensation has turned. up in Pittsburg.
One Klein, a former councilman, hav-
ing been convicted Of receiving a bride
and sentenced to six months in Jail, has
made confession. Sixty or more coun-
cilmen and former councilmen are i'm
plicated. They are not winking at
crime in the Smoky City these days.
The grand jury is in session, the dis
trict attorney is busy and detectives
are keeping close watch of the accused.
Before the end of the present week
some, if not all, of the sixty will be
under Indictment, with prison walls
staring them in the face
There are graft prosecutions at Co
lumbus, Ohio, and also in Chicago, as
well as in some of the smaller cities.
The advice to get money, honestly if
you can, but get money" is no longer
safe to follow. Footpads and sneak
thieves are not the only fellows headed
for the penitentiary in this year of our
Lord. Ben Franklin declared honesty
to be the best policy. There is a strong
suspicion that he was right, even
though he may have viewed the matter
merely in the light of policy.
Bribery is no longer fashionable and
certainly it isn't safe.

AS TO cowARDIcE.

The insurgents in the House of Repre-
sentatives who voted with the Demo-
Gratis TO enlarge the rules committee and
make the speaker ineligible for place
on the new committee to be selected,
and then voted to retain Mr.. Cannon in
abe chair. have taken unlbrage because
the latter called them "cowardly men,
bers of Congress in a speech last Sat
urday night. What else are they? It
certainly was not the part of brave men
TO betray their party and their cOnstitu-
snts and work hand in glove with their
.political enemies. But having been cow
ardly enough to stab their party in the
back, all the yellow in their weak and
tasciIlating natures came to the sur
face when they turned tail and at
srmpted to get back into the fold.
Speaker Cannon spurns their advances,
and the members of the Republican
party in good standing are in no mood
to oondone their offense and extend the
alive branch of peace.
1t was due to these same insurgents
that the false issue of "Cannonism"
was raised. Having carried it to the
parting of the ways, they lacked the
Courage to take the last ste.. Speaker
Cannon called them towards. Is there
a regular Republican or straight Demo-
rsat who does not agree with him?
Benedict Arnold, after the close of the
Revolutionary war, when asked for a
3etter of introduction TO a citizen of the
Omitted States, exclaimed: ALAS was
born in America; raised in America and
cEed there to the prime of my life but
1 can call no man in America my
friend" 1t is also related that when a
lepember of the British House of Com
mons rose to make a speech. he observed
sa-uold in the gallery. Iointing his
Ginger at him, the member said: ''Mr.
Speaker, I Will not talk while that man
"a in the house" In addition TO being
hated by his countrymen whom he at
tempted to betray, Arnold was despised
by those who would have profited by
his treaohery. So it is with the cow
ardly insurgents. Objects of the wrath
and scorn of the Republicans, they are
treated with contempt and derided by
the Democrats.
That Speaker Cannon should call them
towards is perfectly natural. The
speaker has always been foremost in
the political fight and never turned his
back upon the enemy. He has never
exulted over a PROSTATE foe when vic
torious, or cried for mercy when de-
feated. He has the reputation of being
an upright and manly foe-one who
never hit below the belt. The Demo-
Gratis have always admired these quail
ties, and among themselves speak af-
fectionately of him as ''Uncle joe
The insurgents are towards in every
sense of the word, and they know it,
Only little while and they will be re-
turned to the shades of private life,
unwept and unsung, to tester in the
1nfamy of their misdaeds.

FOSTER MAY BE MISTAKEN.

1t is stated by Representative Foster
of Vermont that his district doesn't
want any more Of Speaker Cannon. Mr..
Foster may be mistaken. 1t is more
likely his district doesn't want any
more Of Foster.
The Chicago Tribune tried to con-
vince the countr, that Illinois didn't
want any more Of Cannon; and here
comes the state Republican Editorial
convention and declares for Cannon
and for Taft and for Aldrich-and con-
tinuation of Republican rule in the ma
ton.
1t is all very we'll for the fellows who
believed themselves better fitted for the
office of speaker I enlist the services
of the general public in helping them
overthrow their successful rival. But
better reasons than any yet advanced
will have TO be given before the nation
is going to beat Cannon just to elevate
Foster. or Fowler. or any of the pets
of LaFollette, whoever or wherever
they may be.

JUST cE I'M FRANCE.

There is considerable complaint in
this country regarding the application
of both the civil and the criminal law
by the courts. 1t must be acknowledged
that there is just cause for complaint.
The Thaw trial might be cited as case
in point. President Taft has called at
tention to the cumbersome methods of
procedure now in vogue, and the Amer
lean Bar association has taken the mat
ter in hand. AS a result, IL is highly
probable the necessary reforms will be
instituted.
The United States is not the only
country which claims to be in the van
guard of civilization where rank In
justice is upheld in the courts. BY a
recent decision in France. the former
Anna Gould, who has been a countess
and princess and is now a duchess, is
condemned to pay the parents of her
divorced husband, Count Boni de Cas-
tellane, a lump sum of $4,000, and to
continue to pay an annuity of $4,000.
The suit was brought on the ground
that soon after Anna Gould's marriage
to the dapper little count, a contract
was made under which the count and
countess were to pay a rental of $500
for the forest of Beugenies. owned by
the Marquis and Marchioness de Cas-
tellane, the aforesaid parents. Notwith-
standing the fact that the count and
countess were divorced and that the
latter is now the wife of the Duke de
Talleyrand, better known as Prince
Helie de Sagan, the French court in
sists that she is legally bound to sup
port the parents of Count Boni. Such
a decision would hardly be rendered in
the United States. Indeed, il is doubt
full if the parents of an American who
had been divorced could be induced TO
bring suit against the former wife for
their bread and butter. Evidently the
nobility of France are without pride.
1t is all the same to such creatures as
Boni de Castellane whether they live
off the earnings of fallen women or
marry some fool American girl whose
father has struck "ile''
No sympathy will be wasted on the
duchess. She won't miss the $500 an
nuity. The decision of the French court
is a curiosity, nevertheless.

AN ALMOST FORGOTTEN HERO.

Januarius Aloysius MacGahan lived
but 81 years In that brief span of life
were crowded many stirring incidents,
some of which serve to illustrate the
possibilities of journalistic instinct and
enterprise. MacGahan was born on
farm near Lexington, Ohio, in 1874. He
died in Constantinople in 1878, having
contracted a fever while nursing a sick
friend. In his youth MacGahan tried
many eallings in the west and found
uted unsolicited matter TO the New York
papers, and when the Franco-Prussian
war broke out he went to the front as
a correspondent for the Herald That
reer in the journalistic field. Three
years later he was in Russia for the
purpose of accompanying an expedition
against Khiva. Permission being re-
fused. he organized an expedition of his
own, and after enduring frightful hard
ships on the deserts of central Asia, ar
rived in time to report the fall of Khiva
for his paper.
Shortly after this feat, the same year,
in fact, he reported the Virginius affair
In Cuba, when Captain Fry and his men,
who were captured while on their way
to Cuba to take part in the ten years
war, were stood up against a wall and
shot down like sheep by the Spaniards.
Next he reported one of the numerous
Carlist uprisings In Spain, was captured
and sentenced to be shot. He was saved
by the Intervention of the United States
minister. Then MacGahar entered a
new field Of adventures and Joined the
Pandora Arctic expedition. The next
year found him with the Turkish army
as the representative of the London
News. 1t was his description Of the
unspeakable atrocities perpetrated up
on the Bulgarians that brought on the
Russo-Turkish war and resulted in the
independence of Bulgaria. Then he died.
Some twenty-five years ago the body
of MacGahan was brought across the
ocean and inferred at Lexington, few
miles from the birthplace of the wan
derer. Now it is proposed by the New
York press that the state of Ohio shall
present to Statuary Hall a marble or
