THE BROVN-STONE VOTER.

The Administration organ III this city con-
tanned the other day suggestion almost too
sensible for the columns of any organ what
ever 1t warned the anti-Tammany people
that some of their nominations were OF char
acter which did not commend them to the
favor of the better class, and told them with
unusual candor that they could not win without
"the brown stone vote 1t is something new
for The Commercial AdrCrtiser, or for the poll
ticians it represents, to begin TO respect and to
court this kind of voter. The people who live
in brOwn-stone houses are not, for one thing
sufficiently numerous to make their vote as
important az that of the gravel trains and the
tenement houses but another consideration has
still more Influenced the working politicians
to neglect this vote and treat it with con
tempt. The well-to-do men of the city are
supposed, as a general thing to belong to one
or the other of the two opposing parties; to
have something like fixed political status;
to he unpurchasable as matter OF course
and not easily moved by the common APP
plances of electiOnecring. 1t is therefore
taken for granted that they will vote accord
ing to their partisan complexion, and the party
strikers regard it as time and money thrown
away to make any special effort to bring out
or to change this vote.
Now there are, at the present time, good
many OF this sort Of citizens who are not salts
fed with shutting their eyes and voting the
ticket which their ward strikers may have
made for them. They have been led to think
moro than usual about the state and ten
denotes of our politics, and they are beginning
to see there may be a conception of public
duty somewhat higher than that which has
hitherto led them TO vote the straight ticket
and to leave the selection of their candidates
to the workers" They would like very well
if they knew how, TO take some part them
selves in the choice of decent and honest
Legislators and judges and other public officers.
The usual prescription of the party papers to
men in this frame of mind is to go to the
primary meetings and assist in the nomina'
tons. We think no professional politician
ever gives, or hears given, this advice with
out guffawing in his sleeve. late number
of a Republican periodical has a pathetic
story of a good citizen who followed this
counsel He went to the ward meeting, was
warmly welcomed, and appointed on the nomi-
mating committee. But the game was too COM
petely "set up;n with celebrity that made
him dizzy. the committee retired, voted, end
returned, and Honestus found hinself re-
sponsible for the nomination OF a squahd rogue

nine out of every hundred respectable gentle

Greene-st. gin seller will beat them out OF
sight in these affairs. They can do nothing at
a primary meeting without an amount Of pre-
liminary work and organization which most
men are neither able nor willing to undertake.
What then is the well-meaning brown-stone
voter to dof If he wants TO make hilhse'i
feared and respected by the rascals who run
the politics of his ward, he has only two
courses open to him. He must in the one case
take Oft bis coat and go down among them
for weeks before the nominations are made,
and work as hard for the success OF good
ticket az these rOgues work for their own IN
terests. He must do as much for nothing but
sense of fulfilled duty as they do for thor
living, and he must do it better than they
Or (and this is for many men still hardcr), he
must make the trading politicians clearly I'M

presented honest aud decent men for his sui
frage 1t seems stale tiuism when put down
in black and white but it is nevertheless
almost impossible to convince the ordinary
honest partisan that his duty is to vote against
an unworthy or improper candidate, no matter
how he may have been nominated. Ii the
intelligent and respectable yoters OF this city
could once cause it to he known that they
would vote against every Objectionable can
didate without regard to his party name, the
reign of the thieves and ruifians i'll our poll
ties would be over. The most unprincipcd
party leaders, as a general rule, like to have
the ticket they nominate elected. If they ma
the gutter snipes are regularly beaten they
will stop nominating them. The honest clti-
zens and taxpayers have the power at tins
moment to effect a radical reform in our poll
ties without any labor or Organization-slmply
by voting against every disreputable person pro-
posed by their own party. But this requires
the rarest of civic virtues. the power OF pre-
ferring the public welfare to the qualification
of partisan prejudice.
