Why Clties Grow.

-Why is it that- some “cities and towns .

more nearly stationary?
Natural advantages may constitute
the reason in certain cases. Butvif
you study the history of a rapidly
growing city. you will and in the ma:
Jority of cases that years ago its
chances of development seemed no
better than other'places in its own
locality that apparently had about the

the growing place had certain quali-
ties of ambition or leadership or in-
sight that enabled it to make the best
of its opportunities and distance its ri-

Political Dishonesty.
While political reform is a slow pro-
cess. and it takes years to remove
abuses. yet on the whole politics seems
cleaner than it used to. Some people
of course claim that politicians uouoi- T
11 dabble more or less in graft. But'
the people who come closest in touch
with political lilo do not believe that.
The number of crooked omce hold-
ers ispfew. The great majority of
men who get elected to public posi-
tion seem to be well .meaning and
act as if they were trying to do the'
best they can according to theh- lights.
We have many examples of this right
here in Norwalk.
Tot the results attained by-populos'
government are for from satisfactory.
The peoples money is not beingmioh
on. but it is slipping out in innumer-
able little leaks. 'Th‘e' whole 'scheme
of politics is to blame. rather than any
um dishonesty. Many men who
would scorn to be parties to any form

are against public policy. . ,
They regard politics as a kind of
flame where one must win “by trades
and dickel'l. “You scratch nfy back.
and I'll scratch yours" is the homely
old phrase. These people will sup-
port inferior candidates in drdor- to
