We understand that the Tory landlords of the East
and West Ridings have commenced a system of manufac-
turing blue voters, which, in the end, must prove to 'ue most
ruinous to the honest farmer. In letting farms of the value
of 3001. a year, they make it a condition that five persons
shall be joined with the real tenant in the lease, for the pur-
pose of securing a vote to each person. The farmers
should be on their guard against the designing men, who
propose such arrangements to them, and should remember
that, in case of the bankruptcy of the real tenant, those
who lend their names as joint tenants become involved in
his ruin.
