S our DegradationI of but no bull
f up ton work entitled Our Political DegrQratton ProM by Brig
Ciea Rush C Hawkins The work to
compilation of short setting
certain fact which Oon Hawkinsevery thoughtful citizen of the
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
In the enormous power for evil whichin active operation as follows 1 Thi
immoral influence of the Roman CathollChurch reaching out In all directions a-
in tho ages past and corruptlypolitical power and untold property2 Manhoods suffrage upon which
honestly administered government caexist 3 Nearly practically unqualifiedunrestrained unrestricted immigration an
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
Cromwell or a French Revolution muspresent the only argument the spoliation
be made to comprehendforthe law the authOr
convinced that they are a national evilarid ho recouirta doings of theTweed dayiand proclaims that Judges are not suf-ficiently careful In administering the lawsThere Is an interesting chapter on politicalbosses and Brutality anAvarice Trlumphant wherein the con-duct of dishonest army contractors is toldRailroad wrecking la a favorite AmericanIndus y according to Oen Hawkinsalso is stealing standing timber frompublic lands There Is very much moreof tbo some character and then we cat
see tho kind and the apple cheekof Ingersoll as In a chapter whlol-Ci n has incorporated In his boolCol Ingersoll graciously takes issue with hliold friend on some the mare Importantmatters under discussion
Col Ingersoll closes with We have OUT
faults we have our virtues but ourcountrjthe beatIf any comment is to bo passed upon at
earnest and conscientious mind like GenHawkinss it would bo to the effect thaimoAt of the matters which he discusset
vehement grace oocurred long longago and that many of the participantolthe crimes against the Government werepunished furthermore that the politicalwriters of those days did not belong to theFeather Duster Brigade
U Gen Hawkins as a went to thetheatre be didnt see the blotches of painttha tawdry paraphernalia the dingy andrtiwnal of the performers andthe stage No he sat In front where thepicture of the stage and the playbeautiful to his tender and generous senti-ments Just so from the foundation of
or any Government the populaceaudience and tho politicians are the actorsThere are goodand bad acton and theyshould not be condemned aa a class anymore than should mlliUry men physicianslawyers newspaper men and business men
To the Vast American audience of 80000COO the actors whether they arecans or Democrat furnish a play whichadded to our other bleeelngs should makeu all devoutly thankful for bur citizenship
