This is n great year for political
Koclal and moral upheaval. It han
been many a year since there has
been such tin upheuvul In politics.
The reform movement has taken poa
m'ksIoii of the country and tho old
order i;f things in political life are
about to be swept away.
The Cnlted States Senate haa set
a new standard of morals by tho
expulsion of a member charged with
having obtained his scat by m
or corruption. Following this unus
iial proceeding a charge was brought
I against the President of the United
I States of having used his Influence

may be wisely carried on till we
i-hall have a country noted for clean
