There were 1919 vote polled at the April
ction, about two thirds Of the vote of the
county. The fact il suggestive. Why did
not the other third vote ? We should be glad
TO know that they have good excuse to rem
der. When will the voters the sovereigns of
the county, recognize the fact that they have
each one political duties to discharge, the
neglect of which is more than fault. But
the election is not important says one. Not
important! You do not know that, my friend,
You cannot estimate the importance of every
election, not excepting township election

ted upon. If you had gone 20 the polls, you
would have found out perhaps. The polls is
the post of duty at every election, AMI it is

There may have been period in our history
when measures not principles divided parties
mainly, when politics and elections to a great
extent were games played for the benefit Of

difference whether they voted or not, and per-
ha7s il was so. But now the case is widely

pie. affecting the very substance of society is
at stake. and every vote at every election tells
in some way OF degree upon the general re-

For the Courier.
Shall the Name Rule?

Mr.. EDIToR:-There appears to be great
reliance placed upon s'that strange spell-a
NAME,' in these political times, by men who
term themselves Democrats; and last election
day some of them sneered and scoffed at those
who happened not 10 have their party name
printed at the head of their tickets, and whv D.?
Because they desired to elevate those 10 office
sho were best calculated to fill such posts of
public trusts; and were DESTROYS of being gui-
ded in bestowing their sufrages by correct
p i"cples, and true men, instead of party name,
But those saine noble Democrats could, and
dad supper; men FIR Office, who | venture 10
assert, are not sober more than three days in
cash week! Are we to bestow our suffrages
u7on men, WHO, by vile intemperance, sink
themselves lower than the brutes. because
they enwrap themselves in our own political
garh? Every man mas the inalienable right to
vote for whom he pleases, but does that prove
that he may abuse that right? And when
men abuse their constitutional right, by aiding
that demon of vice which is now stalking
up and down the Demoine Valley, namely. In
temperance. like sable cloud Of blackress
a'hwart the Heavens. does it portray in them
correct principle, OF one iota of philanthropy,
or true integrity. or Christianity?
However, let them scof, and sheer, and
talk hootlngly of men being ashamed-as then
say,-cf name. Yea, let them TINS talk. bu,
let US hope that a Boswell may attend each
prominent one, so that the rising generations
may have the privilege Of reading the turbid
| and Shiny, and foaming speeches upsweIling
from shallow minds at the p esent day. 1t is
right yea. it is strictly honest integrity in men,
to be guided by true, lofty, md noble principles
| uncovered, so that the whole world may view
them. instead of being governed by those of a
dark and evil dye enveloped in good name
so as to be hid from the scrutinizing gaze of
the Truth-seaTcher. 1t is to be hoped, tina,
men hereafter will not be ruled by a name. in
| using the right of the elective franchise, but
| will peer through the veil of politics, and
choose the best, untrammeled by rabd party
spirit; then will we have sound, substantial
| legislators, and officers to enforce fhe laws
Thus were the men of Rome sctuated in the
days of her prime, and paImy ones, when she
prospered so amazingly well. Her bes. men
filled her Offices without the aid of party spr.
it, or prejudice, who enacted wise laws which
were strictly enforced. But when that demon
party spirit, arose, when the love Of power
corrupted the hearts of her leaders, then she
became weak, and tottered and when the
love of A NAME grew stronger. down she went
beset by civil foes within, AID warlike foe.
without, despite the patriotism of Brutus, ant
the stirring eloquence of Tully. May on, no.
BILE country be saved from such DOWNFALL
Let us not be ruled by A NAME.
