Graft.
Thia peculiarly modern word has been
invented to describe a peculiarly modern
disease which threatens the ruin of the
world by eating the very heart out of
civilization, says, truthfully, American
Farmer. It is found more or less
everywhere, but has attacked our own
Country ami Russia with especial viru
lence. Usually it is applied to official
corruption but it by no means stops
here. It permeates every branch ot bust
uess, ruling the merchant as well as the
manufacturer, the contractor as well as i
the promoter, the lawyer, the preacher
and the captain of induatry. A very
comprehensive term in the word graft,
embodying as it does greed, peculation,
bribeay, unlawful gain of all kind, the
root of the evil being love of money. It
was graft more Chau all things else that
defeated Russia. This vice corrupted
liwr administration, sapped her resour,
cew, demoralised her army and navy,
and exposed the whole empire as a mass
of festering sores. In this country it is
not quite so bad, but bad enough. It
was graft that caused those postal scan-
dais last winter. It was graft that brought
about the impeachment of a Unite«!
Stales ju«lge. Graft is at the bottom of
the beef trust scandal, the Standard Oil
robberies, the rebate rascalities and the
criminal features of the big labor strikes.
The labor leader frequently thrive by
graft and the business firms they op|x»se
indulge in the same game. Farmers suf-
fer most from this insidious enemy of
honesty and thrift, and they, of all'
classes of our people, should unite for
its extermi nation, The swindling town
ship trustees who pay school supply men
unlawful prices for all sorts of goods
are grafters from way back, ami as this
is a country office, farmers have to foot
the bills. The graft micro pe of this
species is at woik more or less iri all the
states, but has been especially active in
Indiana of late. Scores of trustees are
under suspicion or investigation for
wasting the township funds and accept
ing bribes from school supply men. The
latter are frequently no better that “green
goods’* dealers, lightning-rod ami hay
fork peddlers and similar scoundrels
who prey on farmers.
The saddest feature a taut the infam
ous business is its invation of the judi-
ical bench. Recently it w’as ascertained
in Indiana that a number of the Circuit
Court Judges, when called as specials to
try cases on change of venue, had not
hesitated to commit perjury in order to
make live or ten dollars extra. The
State allows them $ » a day while actu.
ally engaged, and in several instances
they swore to three days, when they had
only worked on one. The state auditor
was compelled to disallow hundreds of
dollars of t liese fraudulent bills, hut the
dishonest judges go on holding their offi
ces an«l drawing their salaries. These
are only a few samples, but if all the
wblespreading operations of graft were
made known it would take many vol
umes to describe its poi*oiiouH transac
tions. It is not battleships or more
soldiers Hint we need, hut an uprising
against graft ill all its forms. This
country is in no danger from a foreign
foe, but it is in the most deadly danger
from the intrenched demon of graft.
Japan has shown us—alas, that we had
to go to pagan country to find out—
that a nation may accomplish the great
est things both in war and peace with
entire freedom from graft. There is no
graft in the Japanese army or navy.
Every «iollar appropriated for the sol
diers goes right to the spot intended. No
officer has been getting rich by peculat
ing in the supplies. Not a breath of
scandal has twun heard ataut the mighty
host while engaged in the most terrible

this should gain victory after victory I

Another Dash for the Pole.
Lieutenant Commander Robert E.
Peary started for the far North on July
4, in the steamer Roosevelt, which has
been built expressly for Arctic explo
ration from plans suggested by Perry
from his experience in former trips to
the Northern regions. Peary's aim is
to establish his headquarters at as high
a latitude as he can reach with his
ship, and then, seizing the most fa
vorable time, which will probably be
May or June next, make a dash for
the pole with his dog sledges. This
time he will attempt to get a base far
ther north than he had in previous ex-
peditions, and thus be in a tatter posi
tion to reach the goal.
In the 300 years of Arctic explora
tion, in which such navigators as Hud
son Cook, Sir John Franklin, Parry,
Kane, Nares, l>e Long, Nansen and
Abruzzi have figured, discoveries have
been made which have enabled geog
raphers to map the globe to latitude 86
degrees north, or four degrees from
the pole. Abruzzi, an Italian, who at
tained the farthest point north reached
by any explorer to the present day,
went to within 237 statute miles ot
the pole in 1900. In Antarctic explo
ration the obstructions are far greater
than they are in Arctic voyaging, fewer
persons have participated in it, and
the popular interest in it is much
