... THE DAILY ASTORIA, ASTOKIA, FRIDAY ' ilOJKJNlNG, JANUARY ,4 1895. GROWING DISPOSITION OF AMER ICANS TO LIVE ON THE GOVERNMENT. Profosaor Albert Bushnell Hart, In the J&nuory roruin. "The horseleecih hath two diught? crying, Give, Give." Americans app;ar to grow more disposed to llluatrnte the proverb by living 'in the governm jut Of course She whole system ot rotation in appointive and non-polUical offices Is th,ait the purity In powr has the rlglvt to pay for the private services of its followers out of Vm public tneiaury. A TeoPiit governor of the slate of New York put this piixetioe In its baldest form when he approved a corrupt pub lic contract so as to pay off his election expenfiaa. The ordinary sfate of mind ias to pensions is Blm'llarly low. A few nvuubs ago a, dM.lngulshed soldier, diplomat and pMtesman def?ndjd the awthin of a man who was drawing a paraxon far .total disability while an ac tive member of the United States sen aite. "The law," he sadd, "makes no dlsttocffilon; it docs not reoornize the possibility of micinital 1aBr toy a man physiuaily dilsalbled." "But," it was ob JedWd, "m'lghtt not the eanutor look a.t the maitlter slmiply a3 an honest man?' "You might as well say that I have no right to 'Che pension thait I draw," replied ifhe general. The discussion odased ait Wilis point; but the wonder remained 'tthat men of weaKh and sta. Hon and public spirit sfliould take, and encourage others to take, payment for ithelr own gallantry. There is no effect ive public SMUlimemt evwi against noto rious pension frauds. In what commu nity would a person be esteemed to give Information against a widow who mar ried agufln and still dnew her pension Yet any of us would notify the poilcs if he saw the same woman stMng rib bon at a counter.
