\nThe Effect of Petitionary Politics

\nWe are glad to notice a ring of boldness and sincerity in all the writings of the
\nIndu Prakash <\/i>relating to the deportation
\nof Lajpat Rai. We hope this tone will be an enduring change for the better. Mr. Gokhale’s resort to the Anglo-Indian Press
\nin preference to the Indian, on which its observations are very pertinent, is an example of the very common, almost inevitable
\neffect of petitionary politics on patriotism. That a prominent leader of the Congress party should show such an unseasonable
\npartiality for the Anglo-Indian Press whose recent campaign of misrepresentation and vituperation has been unpardonable
\nin the eyes of every self-respecting Indian, is surprising at the first glance. But, in reality, it is the natural demoralising effect
\nof the association cum <\/i>opposition politics. The very basis of constitutional agitation is a reliance on the foreigner and a habit
\nof appealing to him, which is the reverse side of a distrust and certain contempt for their own people. That this feeling should
\nbe, however unconsciously, betrayed by a man of Mr. Gokhale’s position and character, is deplorable but inevitable. It is the
\nlogical outcome of that moderation and spirit of dependence which our contemporary has been so long preaching without
\nperceiving, apparently, where its own dogmas led.

\nWe expressed yesterday our doubt whether the report of Bipin Babu’s speech as sent in to us by a casual reporter and incautiously admitted into our columns, could possibly be correct. We
