should know In his prelimInary

words the author declares thata Urge majority of the writers who

tho last two or threo decades have written

about our conditionHtato and municipal havo been afraid t

sUIte their honest convictionsamong them tho author admitswritten learnedly politely and knowinglj

but adds that they have been content tpaddle around startling truths as thoug

they were floating In a sea of harmlesselegant literature with their facts specialsandpapered wheeled so asto give offence to common offendersthe specially favored criminal closerwhoso backs deserve a lash fashioned oof the rawest possible hide If In thhistory of a nation the author prococjto My there over was a time when honand patriotic lovers of their countryto speak out and write out that timearrived In ourawhere the whole systeis rotten to tho core

While tho author suggests no practicalremedy for tho dreadful state of affahhe describes ho nevertheless declaresevery citizen who cares for decent

ought to Investigate and ascertalfor himself tho locaUon and nature of thweak places in our political structure whlohave given birth to tho disgraceful degradetion which Gen Hawkins Insists beset uiAt the threshold ofsuch an Investigationthe author declares there will beencountereat least four selfevident malignant force

4 Wholesale fraudulent naturalizationThe author In forceful words review

the expenditures for public buildings tinethe days of the civil war incidentally

the cost of our warships and aiflounces that the common result has bee

largest possible expenditure forsmallest possible return The divorcelaws are wrong the statutes relating tocollection of debts rates of interest transftrs of real estate trusts crimes are alaccording to the earnest militant authoraskew who also insists that our Judiciaryis too enormouAl Expensive The ad-

ministration of criminal law Is more defectlve Irregular and unreliable thanof the civil in the estimation of Hawkina who next proceeds to point outviciousvoliimlnoalty of the laws whichall oftour Legislatures grind out each winterConcerning the suffrage franchise QerHawkins of the opinion thatpurchasing of votes Is the common crimeof country and the lever the practicepolitician relies upon to hoist himselfpower The story of the Credit MobllieI-s recalled to the minds of the present generaitlftn and the author Is certain that i
