PASSING RESOLUTIONS NOT ENOTUIL. o tha Editor of The Chicaan Tribune : Ciucaco, March 25.—In so cditorial o your paper of Friday, March 24, on tho subjeat of the Municipal Reform Clabof Chicago, you say : A platform wat adoptod in which politics are con. spicuusly abacat, bul whlch deals with questions of the gravest import to the people of this city, It means roform, and the men who sdoptod {t mean to excrcisn powerful influsuce upon munictps! affuirs in tho re- Auction of oxpenditures and taxation, in tho election of honest and roapoctable men to the control of tho City Guvorament, in the restoratlon of the ersdit of sheclty, and in (his enforcement of ecanomy and hon- esty and the supprossion of oxiravagance and corrup- tion, It is a biy Job that the Reform Club has under- taken, Dut no ous nood doubt that such a movemont in such hands will surely sucoesd. Evory honest sax-payor undoubtedly sympa- thizes with the principlos and objocta of tho Reform Club, but what plan is proposed ? You say * aplatform was adopted in which politics aro consplcuonsly absout.” Just procisoly what are we to understand to bo *politics™? 1t it ls simply somo nort of & programme to got offics your atatement is correct, but I had alwayssup- posed **politics” to be that wnich rolates to political righta and dutiog, and not a moie moramble for oftica, Whether we shail be taxed to death in o political quoation. Whether wo shall have good men in oflico is likowisa o politi- cal proposition. To my mind a declaration of principle js a8 much politics a5 the modo of eeleating, and the choico of, persona to il oftico. Xvery volar I8 a politician, Every man who declares a political principle i a volitician, and it seoms to mo to be au crror that politica is lim- ited morely to choico of men. It is quito tashiooabls, howeyor, to noer at and denounco politiisos. ' But of this no ons can complain if y the term politician {8 moant those who nesk oflico far the sake of plunder, or merely to sub- serye some porwonal aud solflsh ead. 1f, o the other hand, it {s proposed to includo in the term every man who takes an aotive part in somo political organization, and who strives in good falth to bring about good goverament, tha criticiam ia nn{unt aod hurtful.
