a Nationwide Lobby

In a recent article Ia the Boston
Transcript. ". l.. Stoddard shows
that the activity of the National AS
ISOLATION of Manufaoturers-or at
least of it's agents was nationWide.
Mr.. Stoddard refers to a press dis
patch In which Ferdinand Q. Sehwedt
man, formerly secretary of the 1850
citation, is thus quoted;
l admit all of the lMullhalD allie
cations save one. We paid the ex
penses Of orgar iaztion 10 many con
gresional districts IN the hope OF
eleotinR men who we're favorable 10
our principles. If that Is crime,
then we are guilty.
To this the Transcript writer
makes tie following reply:
Unfortunately IL is not a crime. 1t
ought to be. Whom is "A congressman
exepoted to represent, his district and
it's people end sentiments. or any out
eide Influence that may import mon
ey and organization to elect himY
It Seems to as that the answer is
a fair one. The National Association
Of Man ufaotuI ers, or any other Or
ganization, would have a perfect right
to give the people of any district IN a
public way the benefit of It's views rs
to the qualifications of it's representa-
tive. II it could show that his course
WAS antRgonistio to the business In
terests of the district, It would help
the people to a right decision. 1t
would be for them to consider The
case. and TO make up their minds
concerning It. All this Is proper
enough.
But It is decidedly not proper for
a national organization to pour mon
ey into a district to be used to elect
or defeat a candidate for congress.
Aud this Is what the National Asso.
citation of Manufacturers has done.
OF course. the practice is not new.
Years ago large sums of money we're
subscribed by great. protected in
dustry. and concentrated ia the dis
tTict of W. r. Morrison, of Illinois.
Mr.. Morrison's only oHense was his
opposition to protection, an opposi-
tlon embodied Ia a toriff bill bear
ing his name. He was defeated.
Such campaigning as this, and such
as Sohwedtman admits, results, when
successful, In taking the control OF
congressional nominations and cleo
lions out of the hands of the people.
What we have Is, not self-Rovernment,
but government by the SohwedtmRns.
the Kirbys and the Mulhalls.
gressmen 90 chosen do not repr
GLASS interests. and little committees
OF private associations operating Sc
oretly. Such Is the lobby that has
been at work Ia this country for
many years. 1t has not simply sought
to influence senators and representa-
tives at Washington. but has invaded
states aud districts for the purpose of
controlling the action of the people
It has also stirred up sentiment
against representatives at home, with
the idea of STRENGTHENING out.
those who have vUted wrong" or
who seemed likely to do so. 1t has
arrsRted Itself the right to call men
to account for their action, and to
reward or punish them. Such an in
fiuenoe as this seems to us to be very
daugerougs. 1t is dangerous because
It involves the overthrow of self gov
eminent.
