HAVE ALL HEARINGS IN THE
OPEN.

We cordially indorse the position
Of Representative Harrison that all
investigations into the conduct Of
public officials or Of the various de-
partments Of the government be in
the open.
No honest man fears a public in
vestlFation Of any charge that may
be affecting either hA public or his
private character.
No honest board Of men IS AFRAID
to have every line Of testimony taken
before a committee Of inquiry printed
In every newspaper in the land.
No honest legislator wants TO be
an apol6ast for star chamber meth
ods
The widest publicity Is the surctt
guarantee Of official rectltude and
faithful service. Secrecy breeds sus-
picIon, leads to espionage and
doubt Secrecy is the refuge Of the
criminal and the worst elements who
prey on society
Let us for once play the cards face
up on the table Let all the inyesti-
cations be in the open and on the
