The bystander shrieking denuncia-
ton of that which excites his fellows
little If any is usually suspected Sof
having something the matter with
him. That Is the sort of impression
given by Chairman Hull of the Ma
tional democratic Committee In his
wholecale denunciation of every
body connected witfNthe Republican
administration of affairs. At any
rate he overlooks one very i'm
portant fact, the Republican ad-
ministration at Washington has been
at work cleaning house since it put
it's hand to the work. This Is not
altogether surprising seeing that the
Democrats never cleaned house, or
kept a budget. The only rational
excuse for Hul's TRADE is the ex-
tremity he is in to cover up the
conditions which the Republicans
found at the national capital when
affairs were turned over to them.

Under editorial comment" an ex-
change has something to say re-
specting conditions in the Veterans
Bureau. Those conditions have
forced themselves on public notice
by reason of their stencil If for no
other reason. The writer of that
comment does not spare those con-
gressmen, who have made Of this
Bureau a clearing house for their
political debts. If the veteran has
common sense, he knows that the
representative or senator who makes
use of this Bureau for Official
patronage. even though the veteran
himself be the recipient of the favor,
is no friend of the veteran, is only
trying to trade the veterans inter-
est for his own personal advantage,
the meanest kind of graft.
