It is this species of corruption that is becoming a stench in the nostrils of all those whose patriotism is more than pocket deep.
It is in the people themselves, and in the fundamental principles upon which society is built, and those which the people allow government to be administered upon.
Every thinking person knows that no such persons or principles are in authority now, and that they have not been these many years.
It is well enough to cry peace when war rages, but the crying will not bring it.
