There seems to be a difference of
opinion among the citizens of Craftsbury
as to whether there is more than twenty
five voters in the town who will vote for
Greeley or not. Last week we stated
that it was the opinion of good reliable
citizen that there was not, and perhaps
the man was correct in his opinion
Although we understand there is seventy
/ five or eighty Democrats there, any per-
son need not have very remarkable
memory to see that Time often works
wonderful changes in the minds of men.
josh Billings says that "Polyticks is
queer" and who is the man that can
look out on the present political prospec-
tus and say that Josh is not right. We
suppose our friend thinks that it would
not be the strangest thing in the world
if fifty of these Democrats should refuse
to support Greeley, Notwithstanding
he is the Democratic candidate Anoth-
er tells us that he thinks there may be
forty Greeley men there, and another
says seventy-fve, and perhaps there are
others who would place the number as
high as hundred or a hundred and
fifty, yet it would hardly be mannerly
in any one to pronounce such a man a
fool for thinking thus and SO. 1t is an
old saying, worn and thread bare, that
''This is free country and who is
there that has got a soul or liver that
don't feel like shouting ''hallelujah' to
our forefathers that it is so. Then while
We live in free country, let each man
be FREE MAN:
Free as the eagle in the air
Free as the salmon in the river,
Free as the deer in the forest;
think, speak and vote according to the
dictates of his own best Judgment. and
let no man be so hasty as to say ''fool'
to another because he cannot agree with
him, in politics at least. We don't say
this and put it under the Craftsbur,
head because we imagine one party there
is going to turn sour and hate the other
not at all-but one thing suggests anoth
er, and it is human to err and life
long enemies are often made from a lit
tie political differences. There seems to b.
esome lively men out there on both sides
We would say to all hands: do your bes
for the cause you love the best, but b
neighborly all the while OF course yo'
will.
