WAW:E A co : (Written\ Speclally For The Bulletin.) “You kannot devise a magic system of ‘government. which will work itself. In 'the last analysis gevernment is uan 'as the officials elected, and. the people eez tha kind of ‘government: they ds: rmm trom & recent addrbas by r of our neighboring state to |1 | New York has set me thinking. ~After I've been thinking awhile I want to talk, ‘What the spirit: moves me to, this morn- ing, has little to do With the peculiar problems of the farm. - Nevertheless, it has much to do with the future of farm- ers, as well as other people. I hove you, ‘won't think I'm too far off my trolley if 'I talk a little about politics. Not about political partigs. Heaven forbid! That way lie, if not madness at least unreason, prejudice, misjudg- ment, partisanship, mental obfuscation and moral astigmatism! " But about true. politics ‘which means the science and art of government. We're, not, all of us, breathlessly excited over the fate of “the party”—either or any “party, afe, all of us, vitally concerned over the fate of the government. - Pretty nearly all of us have a sneer In our tones if not In our actual words, when we refer to politicians. This is not our fault. It is due to the politicians | themselves. If they have made them- selves contemptible in the eyes of-their fellow-citizens the resulting contempt is as natural as a healthy nasal repulsion against the odor of the skunk. If you. turn away_from that horrible stench it is not your nose which is to be blamed, but the beast which produces the stink, If by his trickiness and his unfairness and his hypocrisy and his manifest self- seeking the-professional politician arous- les popular contempt, he js himself the rcause, The hatural reaction is a tribute to prevalent good sense rather than an indlcation of prejudice against him. Still, it 1s a Jittle regrettable that there should be such a wide-spread feeling. It is doubly regrettable because, In the hasty generalizations to' which the pub- lio is always prone, it leads to a confu- sion between true politics, f.e. the sclence and art of government, and party poil- tics, which is simply the scramble to get | your man in and keep the other’ fellow's | man out. The older I grow the more in- ' trom. the. nuu-m ot a true, patriot. | ~ From the time of its fompln m stability of this government of ours:has been.based on the conservative imdivid- ualism—if such a phrase Do .pru-!- ‘How ble—ot the- country-inhabitin ority. Present tendencies are towards a re- versal‘of that condition, and a transfer- rence of, ultimate \decision” to. the, city. vote, ‘We who still- live in the “rooral deestricks” must face that tendency and |:consider, what it means, not only to our, ‘country but to us. I profe prophetic abili the horrible government which bur- dens. such cities. as. New York and. Phil- adelphia and Chicago, and reflect that the country as a whole has thus far lescaped the worst of it because of the preponderance of a saner sounder.| politics in the rural communities—then I confess that the threatening preponder- ance of the city vote makes mie shiver, las Mulvaney said, | prehenshun. flows clear as a spring brook.to. its junc- tlon with 'the muddv Missourl, There its purity ends. Thenceforth to the ocean its flood is-yellow with slime and infested with snags. The larger volume of its turbid tributary governs its char- acter. the apprehension it excites may be un- called. for. Time will show. Meanwhile we of the have 2 stern duty imposed on us. It is, wheth- er in victory or defeat, to uphold the ban- nepar agrer snll more intelligently pa- thiotic politics. If the pessimists are right and the worst is to come, let us clear our skirts from all responsibility for the disaster. ‘We can do that much at least. But we can only do it by rec- ognizing and acting on the principle that partisanship is not true politics. Partis- anship is merely a means to an end— the end of good government. And “there is no magic system of government which will work itself.” “In the last analysis gov m ment is as good as the officials elected.” And in that same.last analysis the officials elected are just about as good as the majority which elects them. The stream mever rises higher than its ‘source. We who live near Nature's ‘tense becomes my disgust with “prac- tical politics,” falsely so-called. Also, the older I grow the deeper in my inter- est in true politics—in the wise and pru- dent and foreseeing conduct of the peo- ple's affairs, by the peopls and for the peopls, as Mr. Lincoln phrased it. | springs ought. to be the last men to for- get THE FARMER. Norwich District Ministers’ , Assocla-| tion of the. Methodist Episcopal church My - earliest participation in polities was in 1860 whenm, as a junior “Wide- Awake” with small ofl-skin cape and faming oil-fed torch, I followed my big brother in the parades which marked the campaign for Lincol’s - elec#fon. Of course I wasri't old enough to vote, but I was old enough- to absorb enthusiasm like a sponge. Since then much water has flowed-under many bridges. It has been my privilege to know something .of the dars ways of “practical politicians, and something of the ideals of those, who. sought to transmute their tricks into statesmanship. I can ‘“talk polities” then, with something more than a mere theoretical knowledge of it as it is, and with some- thing more than a mere visionary’s dream of what it should be. ‘We are all the time complaining about the faults and failures of our govern- ment, town, city, state or nation. Where- in, if we would only stop to think rea- sonably and sanely, we would" see" that we are just condemnming ourselves and our neighbors. For, as Gov. Miller blunt- 1y but incontrovertibly states the case, “the people get the kind of government they deserye.” Has New York city, to take one o\lt- standing example, a city government which is at, once \extravagant, inefficient, slighting public needs to foster party ad- vantage, pock-marked with jobbery and foul with venality? If so, it is for no other reason under heaven than because that is exactly the kind of government the people of New York city deserve: It is the kind they choose with their eyes open and their cholce unfettered. Have t00 many of the large cities of the country and some of Its states gov- ernments of a similar sort? It is, in every case, the direct fault of the, vot- ing majority. In these days of the se- cret ballot, no man is compelled to vote for a candidate unless he approves that candidate and what the candidate stands for. - And that leads me te remind you of ome fact which the last census has tnade unfortunately téo clear for doubt or de- nial. T mean the fact that, in many of the eastern and most populous states, the city population now out-numbers the rural. What does this mean, politically —again using that word in its larger and ‘worthier sense? Will you, fellow-farmers, permit me to quote, right here, from Alleyne Ire- land's searching dlagnosis of our soeial and political malady? Mr. Ireland writes: “The average voter in a large town brings into politics a mentality utterly different from that of the country vot- er. It is the mind of the property-less wage-earner; of the clerk, of the shop- assistant, of the day-laborer; of a man herded with other men and profoundly affected by the herd-instimet; of a man of weak individuality; of a man whose life ig passed in surroundings and in circunistances whera his free will is perpetually constrained by, the comtagion of an artificial environment,” etc., ete. Did you know that the censug of 1920 showed there were at that time in New York city only 1164834 mative-born whites and 294,629 foreign-born @vhites? Those borm® in Russia and the Balkan countries alone out-numbered by half a million those born in America. Now I am not atiempting to set forth that a native-born American is any bet- ter than a native-born something-else. .| He may be or he bay not be. That is a. matter of opinion. In my own judgment it is Dretty #mall business: to find fault With people because ‘they were foreign ‘born. * All of our ancestors were, foreign- bern, for that matter. We're all fmmi- graats or the offspring of immigrants. But it is just as true in the growth of humanity as in the growth of a f sat that “As the twig Is bent the tree's ed.” What Mr. Tr calls the mt-uw" of the cify voter Is quite as much shaped by heredity as by environ- The. ma-m us with a mind and convenes at Galés Ferry, June 5 and 6. ‘qne program follows: Monday afternoon, June 5 (daylight saving)—2.30, devo- tions, Rev.
