Politics Very Costly. Renovo News, (Dem.) One of the worst evils with which Clinton county has had to contend with for some years past is the too llagrant use of money, or; in other words boodle in politics. There was a time when good and honest men in Clinton had no hesitancy in coming forward for office, but that is all changed today. Politics has become sort of a business affair, and the man who to-day consents to run for office must submit to being held up on the highways and byways, and if he refuses he well knows what awaits him. Yet the very people who are guilty of this outrage are generally to be found in the front ranks shouting for the good of the party to which they swear allegiance. They goto conven tions, nominate a ticket and then tell you what an excellent ticket it is, but they never say a word about the boodle part of it and the role they played in this game of the highwayman. The time has come when aspirants for office in both parties are beginning to realize that the boodle end must be eliminated, The payment of legiti mate expenses is not objected to, but the placing of voters on the auction block and knocking them down to the highest bidders is an outrage oil honest politics and injustice to an honest and deserving man who would otherwise seek a nomination. It has boen said that a determined effort would be made during the next campaign to eliminate it, but this we are afraid can only bo accomplished by the candidates entering an agreement and keeping it. There is no reason why any man anywhere in the State should be compelled to spend at least a year's salary to be elected to office. Yet such is and has been frequently the ca«e. This condition of affairs exists in this county, and the men principally re sponsible fur it were the leaders of sev eral years ago. These men at that time set the p ice, and to undo it now will no doubt prove a mighty hard task, because the heelers havo been educated to it and they expect it and generally get all they want. Notwithstanding all this the system t¥in be and ought to bei mproved upon, providing the proper course is pursued by the candidates who seek office. Honest men mid hout*it newspaper* will undoubtedly join in the movement to give the county honest and better politii*. Hoys clothiug at N. Heger'n.

Where Bread was Expensive. Philip Harman, who lives in Wayne town-ship, Armstrong county, near Dayton while in Punxsutawney the other day told how he had once paid S3CO for a few buns and thought he was doing well. lie was in Belle Island Prison during the Civil War and hav ing a note for §125 payable in gold with six per cent interest at the Indiana Bank, he exchanged it for $-10 in Con federate money and a note for the bal ance. A dollar in gold was then worth about $2.25 in greenbacks, and he never realized anything on the note, lie gave what was equivalent to S3OO in United States currency for S4O in Confederate currency, worth at that time perhaps i one dollar in gold. For the Confederate ! money he received a few buns, and to a man in Belle Island Prison at that | time a bunn was cheap at SIOO.

Secretary to the President, to the head ' of the new Department of Commerce i and Labor, when created, is generally conceded. Many men in the Presi dent's position would be too selfish to suffer the loss of Mr. Cortelyon's ser vice as secretary, even to secure to him a promotion that he well merits. Many people have forgotten that the Monroe Doctrine was first outlined by Great Britain. The United States can better take care of itself than can Can ada, and than England can care for Canada. While the Monroe Doctrine stands, Canada, with her immense boundaries difficult to garrison and protect, is safe from European aggres sion.
