IN OFFICE,

IN a country like this where the people
absolutely rule, it is Of tho FIRST imnor.
lance that all classes should be properly
educated for such positions as in after
LIE thay may be called upon to fll. The
poor boy who hbors from morning until
night upon the farm, rnay sometime in
The future if given an opportunity, rise 10
distinction in one sphere or another aud
exert an important influence over the
destlnies of the State or Nation. One
very necessary means of arousing a spirit
of emulation in tho young, is to encour>
age them by t~estowing honors upon those
who have shown themselves worthy Of
public trusts and qualified for public
duties. But if any n man or set of
men, are 30 hold Office all their lives 10
the exclusion Of others equally worthy,
what encouragement are we Offering the
' Wv
younger generation to fit themselves for
anything better in the future. Thew see
men OF learning and acknowledged
ability left absolutely in the shade, while
others who never had any qualification
except for intrigue have honors showered
upon them until they begin to look upon
1t as a vested right that they should hold
the Office, and no one has any business to
interfere. Aspiration on the part of any
one else is simply presumption. Take
the first Congressional District for in,
lance. Every Federal Office is managed
and controlled by a ling which was
formed years ago, and which clings to-
getSer with all the tenacity that a mutual
greed for the emolumerts of Office engen,
ders. Touch one of these e%mmaculate
brotherhood and you arouse the ire of the
whole family. Strike at the leader and
you get up a storm of indignation which
if it does not well nigh cverwhslm YOU.
will make your ears ring for a season at
least.
Now the question is: How long are
we to submit to this state of affairs? Is it
not time we had a change? We have vet
to learn if any of the parties who now
hold these offices have distinguished them
selves in any particular manner that they
should be entitled to hold them always.
And we now ask in all candor; are there
not Others equally as deserving, equally
as well qualified, equally as patriotic and
equally as much entitled TOT share of the
public patronage as those who have held
it SO long?
The next question is how are we to 70
about it? The answer is plain and sim.
pie: we must change the head, and this is
what We propose TODD, and we trust every
young man who has any aspirations
himself, and every old one who has a son
or relative whom he would see advance
in life, will take hold with us and let us
have a change. It cannot possibly be fo-
worse, and in all probability, it will be
for the better, let us try.

CANDIDATES FOR COUNTY
OFFICES.

An unusual number of candidates are
Offering themselves for the different coun>
ty Offices next fall. As a rule those wLo
have SO far announced themselves are
among the best citizens of the county and
most if not all of them deserve that their
claims should be carefully considered by
the voters Of the county. 1t is matter
that c%oncernssour immediate interests to

not only qualified to transact the business
pertaining to the Office correctly but who
are by nature and temperament adapted

nothing more annoying than the petty ty>

THURSDAY, MARCH 12 1874
Ever since Judge Gillenwator, IN,

NN"BV las
announced himself a candidate, although
no others had declared themselves through
thc public prints, the ".bread and but.el
lTisade" have been in a Juror of excite,
nient and alarm over the prospect tbaI
they might possibly lose the support Of
him to whom they lave sworn allegiance
through evil as we'll as good report
Without provocation they have attempted
ON all occasions 10 injure the fair
came of Judge %Gillenwaters, ard Ly the
most unfair means tried to iniure his
prospects for election. If they knew
how the people looked upon such matters,
they would probably be less hasty in ma.
king their wishes and designs known,
1t is plain to every thinking man that
their anxiety about the election of Mr..
Butler is based entirely on self interest
and that they are consequently incapable
of judging impartially between the two
asrirants, and every voter who takes pains
to reflect a moment will set their opinion
in the premises aside. Their testimony
will not be regarded as valid, either in
favor of the ono or against the other.
Suppose for instance that Judge Gillen-
waters occupied the anne position that
Butler does this class of men would be
just as anxious and enthusiastic over his
candidacy for reelection as they are now
over tho present incumbent. We don't
presume to find fault with them they
have for a number Of years deri we'd their
daily bread through the influence and
friendship Of Judge Butler, and it is but
human natarc to desire o continuance of
the same but their ability to become
judges ofthc qualifications and eligibility
Of the two candidates should be estima~
ted accordingly. In case a convention
should DO called to select a candidate
these men will be on the ground as dele
gates and will insist on taking an active
part in the proceedings. They are as a
rule placed in the most conspicuous places
and occupy the most important positions
where self-respcct ought to prevent them
from making themselves heard at all.
Delegates to a convention should 90 un-
tramelled, and prepared to act impar>
tally, but who would expect a fair rep
resentation Of the wishes of the people
with such men as Sel~f>constituted dele.
gates. The time has come when people
are getting tired of this sort of thing and
they will not support any man for office
because a few interested individuals have
put him forward.
1t would be in better taste for these
men TO be silent as regards either of the
candidates, and let men who have
ether interest aside from the emoluments
of office, perform the duty Of selecting
the candidates.

co COMMUNICATIONS.

MeSSrS. Editors.-It has been my
purpose in the series of articles furnished
for your paper, to awaken thought, long
dormant in The minds Of the people, upon
the various questions suggested therein,
and it is highly gratifying to me to know
the people of the county are beginning to
think for themselves and express 8 deter>
mination to act for themselves in the flu,
ture. These questions have both a civil
and q moral aspect and when ance we can
get each individual man to feel that he is
personally responsible for the results that
may flow from any given course of action,
then we have reached a point at which
good men may rejoice. We sometimes
forget that the whole is made up of parts
and that each individual man an integral
part Of the community and the entire &C.
tons of a great nation, is but the acts of
individuals. We suffer greatly from the
feeling that "what is everybody's bust,
ness is nobody's business" and we all act
upon it. Hence those interests that con-
Germ the public are neglected entirely or
put into the hands of incompetent, men.
This is our trouble and danger, and if we
are ever ruined, this is the rock upon
which we are to split. Suppose a man
comes to you for employment and asks to
have committed to him important inter>
ests. Interests that may seriously effect
your reputation and your fortune. will
you not enquire Thoroughly into his ft-
ness and qualification for the position he
seeks, or will you because he belongs to
your party place at his disposal your most
sacred interests. You know how you
would act in your private matters and
will YOU tride with the public interest.
If was a drunkare, a gambler. an adul-
terer or prOiane or guilty of any of the
crimes that degrade a man and outrage
public dccency, would you employ me in
your private business? 1 think not, and
yet it is often done at the expense of the
public as will yet appear from the arti>
cles of AYoTER.
