B1y~ The Herald OF yesterday thinks that it is all
right for voter to trade off his vote designed to be
given for the candidate Of his party and the representa-
tive of his principles and transfer such vote to the OPP
ponent of all these order to obtain oquival Mt
vote for personal friend for other office. We need
hardly comment upon such proposition. 1t is only ne
cessary to state it to show any one who looks at it fairly
that it is buying vote for personal friend, the con
sideration given being The sacrifice Of political principle
on the part OF the party buying We think it is
only necessary for neghbors of the Herad and all
Others, to look at the thing fairly and they will agree

ernor we spoke of such public men, Democrats,
who would assuredy be held in that capacity, to rigid
account by the Democratic citizens of the county. We
speak in political sense. Everybody knows that a
party does not admire those who sacrifice it promote
personal objects he He'0M of the lth thought this
