TIE OFFICE SHOULD SEEK THE MAN

Nothing is more natural, nothing
more admirable, than the aspiration OF
good and capable men to lead men and
10 govern great states. But honorable
objects must he hon0raby sought. \
man with "a true political ambition,
with the instinct of leadership, advo-
Gates wise measures, and, by the power
which belongs to the instinct, impresse5
his views upon the minds Of Others.
He leads by natural aScendenGy, and
they naturally and gladly follow. So
Washington led. So Jay was leader.
But the modern system ola "still hunt"
of private, illicit influence upon those
whose votes elect to high place, ofmous-
ing intrigue, or bargain and barter and
corruption, is not only dishonorable, but
it is destructive of the essential princl-
pie or the government. The ajority
must rule. But only anhonest majority
can rule justly. To open headquarters
at a capital in order to procure votes,
not by personal preference founded up
on knowledge Of character and of q ca
reer, but by private solicitation and
representation and trade, and so to Sc
cure majority, is to cheat the people
and to caricature the popular principle.
A majority so obtained is not a moral
majority. 1t Is not only not binding, 1t
is to be repudiated as crime againstthe
people.
What was good enough for Jay and
Washington ought TO be good enough
for us. If they disdained to. proposed
themselves as the choice Of the people,
we may safely disdain it. The current
question now is, "Who is an applicant?'
1WhO wants it?n And the fittest man
is passed by because he has not askedifer
it. Washington and Jay did not ask.
But when the people selected them, the
people found officers quite as honorable
and efficient as those who do ask. The
man whose self-respect for the principle
of the government prevent his "con-
Quoting his own campaign TO be elect
ed or appointed to an. office Is thought
to he altogether too>"high and mighty
and too rsdiculously squeamish. "If
man won't help himself, who will help
him." is supposed to BE- a conclusive
question in the realm Of politios.-EDI-

to raise enough fish in one year for

Hgixed Farming.
IN. O. Times-D Democrat, Jan. 24.l

IN. O. Times Democrat, Jan. 24.l
The experiences of the past year have
served ae an eloquent illustration Of
thFff wisdom Of mixed farming in the
So 18th. Our planters staked their all
or cotton, and, in a majority of cases,
they lost. Especially ia this true as
regards the uplands-the very regions
which are particularly adapted to small
farming on the Western plan. In these
regions the, results have been disas-
trous. The drouth, which prevailed
throughout the summer, shrivefed the
crops, noECing Cotton into premature
ripeaing and consnmmating its fruitage
long before the growth had attained a
normal condition. In consequences,
there were vast fields filed with cotton
at&lks one or two feet high where they
should have been at least four, and
bearing half q dozen feeble bolls where
there should have been thirty or forty
healthy ones. The miserable crops
maturedIi in August. at q time when no
favorable change in the weather could
do them any good. These calamitous
features were not so perceptible in the
lew7lying bottom lands. which do not
suffer extremely from drouths, bat, 10
. greg-T or less degree, they were uni
versal.
The lesson has been severe but we
hope itsu1ay be Statutory. If it teaches
the farmers of the South. and especial
" in the nplands, to diversity their
crops-to plant corn. oats, potatoes and
hay as we'll as Gotten, and to devote
some attention to the raising of hogs
and cattle. 1t will have served a very
beneficial purpose. &c il the curse aud
drawback of our section /; this short
sighted frenzy for cotton-this stubborn
determination to stake everything upon
the hazard of n single crop. Il will
keep rs poor 90 long az we persist in
il, fOg, the success of one year is always
n~eutralized by the reverses of the next.
What We need 10 the adoption of the
Western model; the prosecution of di
veTsified farming ; the growing of ami
NAL and vegetable food the arrange
nnentof farming operations SO that the
failure Ia no n detail need reduce the
