The following extract from an editorial in the Miami Herald June 11, is worthy of consideration: “Political bosses do nét Like Wiltiam S. Vare, whose nardiie’ with corruption on a grand seale sylvania, they sooner or later run the grain of public opinion and then money ner the glories of the past can save them.” It frequently happens that four or five men, greedy for power, bind themselves together and seleet cand for of- fices, whom they can control, arid seek to bring about their nomination and election. They asually have on their side most of the office-holders, the banks and @ newspaper or two. They perfect an organization or ring, and seek to make themselves the dictators or rulers in their respective coun- ties. Those who comprise the ring may be men of the highest character. unimpeachable integrity. and of the strictest morals; nevertheless, a ring in politics is an wu! condition, and woe betide it when the smali taxpayer and the plain people rise in their might. or rings cannot succeed when the people are aroused against them by an awakened public conscience. ees a; in.
