The Bquitable disclosures aué the numerous graft prosecutions ease him to believe that Increasing wealth is capping the morals of the public. He forgets the Inmumerable cecasions in the past when corruption 2 & grand ucale was brought to light and men said, a8 he says now, that the geod old days of honesty had gone If history ts to be relied upon, the good old days of houssty Mover existed except in Imagination. tn Jackson's day, the country was poorer and the revenues of government were much ematier than now, but the defaleations m the Now York custom house amd the stealing in the posteftice depart- mont were large, even when measured by the present standard of wealth and revenue And—worse yet—they did not excite the general popular indignation that smaller thefts do today Up-te-date “frenzied finance” is bad, But for many years before the war the “wildest bank” graft—the palming off on tae public of paper money that was afterwards repudiated—was carried on throughout the country on @ grand scale, Aad the public tamely sub mitted, President Bochanaa aad his associates who were maneuvering for the Kicums bills etopped at dothing. The patronage of the gov- ernment was used In an unblushing manner, Contrecta and direct Payment of money were used to influence votes In congress, one repre- Sentative, according to Historian Rhodes, being offered a whole town- ship. And the public was slow to see anything wrong. Today the country would be shakes by & crime of that sort ax by an earthquake. ‘Thirty years ago the whisky frauds by which thd govermment was cheated out of millions throogh the purchased complicity of revenue officers, were carried on almost openly. Though the pubtic applauded President Grant's saying, “Let no guilty man escape,” and 8 good mmny more did escape then would escape nowadays. In the thousands of years of recorded human life, human nature thas changed but little. It has changed a good deal lees in the last three-querters, half and quarter of a century Byen reverence for ancestry will not perasit wa, ta face of cold fact, to believe that our fathers and grandfathers were very muck better than we are. There has come one change, however. The public is lew tolerant of graft and grafters than it wed to be. It has a higher moral code aud will have a still higher one a half-century henee. FF Of course, this bs no argument for the condoning of offenses of today. Tt is onty a tip to politica! pessimists (hat there still is bepe for Pragrass worth fighting for. “The State of Jefferson” ‘The proposition that Arizona be admitted to statehood under the fame Jefferson, because it will be the last state to be cut owt of the Yast territery purchased wader the Jeferson administration, seems Peeuitarly fftting and will add great force of sentiment to Arizona's plea. As a memorial te the fur-seefng statewmanship of Jefferson it ‘would, however, be somewhat a misfit, It must be remembered that President Jefferson had instructed his commissioners to acquire only the city and island of New Orleans, and was more amazed and cha- grined than anyone else when Napoleon unloaded upon them, at what was deemed an enermeus price, all that vast, unpenetrated, unmapped wilderness, bounded on the south west ond7 by mythe dnd superstition and by immensity oceanward. It was fear of the wrath of the great Napoleon, not foresight, which made Jefferson accept the bargain. The best excuse he ever offered: was that the wilderness at the west would be useful as @ tefuge for the Indians, so wnweleome east of the Mississippi Jefferson never dreamed of the mighty empire of industry and @ommerce whieh has developed, magic lke, out of that pathiess un- known. Boat this is nothing against bis judgment. The phenomenal de- Selopment of the great west has been beyond all human forecasting. For the first time In the world, modern civilization has been seeded in a virgin soll, And the teoult is one of the wonders of the world. When Oblahoma and Indian Territory have been admitted as a state, as they soon will be, Arizena alone of all the great domain that has been transformed from a brooding wilderness into a smiling garden of the gods, will remain unadmitted. Arizona pleads for admission, and there is no reasen, except in Patty politics, for keeping her waiting. She has all the requirements im a fur greater degree than had many of the earlier states. ‘Whether as the state of Arizona or-as the state of Jefferson mat- fora little aside from sentiment. Eiffer sounds good. ‘The attempt to force Arizona to sacrifice her identity and join With New Mexico into ane state has no justification. Kach is entitled to saparate statehood, Maybe the coming congress cam forget politics long enough to do §uetice to the last division of the great Loulsiana purchase. SaaeanaEEEei @h-h-h!
