VOTE SWAPPING BECOMES A
SCANDAL

The accepted practice of swapping
votes in state legislatures has reach
ed pass where it is akin to national
scandal. The public interest is sac
rificed on the altar of county cupid
ity, though as fact the home folks |
in the long run pay dearly for their
supposed favored legislation. You
vote for my bill and I'll vote for
yours" is the battle cry. 1.-The pro-
visions of my bill will not affect your
territory, and nobody cares any
how" The custom, OF course, is the
outgrowth Of the Washington pork
barrel scramble where favored noses
are so brazenly thrust into the ma
tional money trough. There 1t Is
bad enough, but when the practice
IS brought more nearly home the eff
feet is demoralizing. Unprincipled
legislators are enabled to entrench
themselves in office so firmly that
1t soon becomes next to impossible
to uproot them. They always make
good" for the home folks, and that
is as far as the vision goes. The
rest, to quote the melancholy Dane,
J is silence. The practice lowers the
: moral fibre of the people and legisla-
lures become simply distributing
: centres of graft and special favors
state budgets are swollen beyond all
necessity, genuine expenditures dc
n not count, nothing counts, indeed
r but moves that will keep the tawdry
politician in his legislative job.
