THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
Politic.!], Plagiarism. ‘‘ln politics tho man who delivers the goods (Joes not always (perhaps in actual history not often) reap tho reward. Init the goods, if genuine, always in the end reach an address whore they are eagerly taken in. Political parties are small things really. Each machine holds hut a small, and not always a stable, fraction of tK'e whole people. Outside and apart from the party machines are the real political forces in the country. Political parties are powerful not in the nilmhers of their stable partisans, but in their power of appeal, and the capacity to read tho mind of the man or woman outside tho machine ;tnd to appraise the value of positive ideas. Party fortunes depend largely on successful plagiarism, and constructive ideas find hospitality and welcome.”—“Monthly Notes.”
