Town Officers.

Next Tuesday Will be the only day
that the legal voters Except those who
NAV be elected to fill the oflices) in
our town meetings throughout the
county will have an opportunity to
exert any influence during the term OF
one year upon the question of almost
unbearable taxation. On that day the
right to think and vote is not confined
to any particular class. The man in
his striped frock has the same rights
at the ballot-box as if dressed in broad
cloth. In connection with these
valuable privileges the fact should not
be lost sight of that every voter has 4
duty to perform that he owes to him
self, his family and his fellow-towns-
men. When men are heard to COM
plaiu that certain town officers have,
in consequence of their ignorance or
dishonesty, subjected their town to I'M
necessary expenses, they should be
reminded that such a condition OF
things has been produced by their
own careless neglect. Why should
such men complain when they know
the cause and remedy, but do not use
all honorable means within their reach
at the bal!ot-box to correct such
wrongs? No county has better ma
teriaI. or more abundant, than ours to
fill the offices of trust in the several
towns with honor to themselves and to
the full satisfaction of their townsmen.
There is scarcely 4 school district IN
the county that does not contain men
well qualified to be entrusted with the
interest of their town. Under the
present arrangement of most towns,
the Taxpayers generally are not
cheated, for each officer of Importance
makes his record, Though some do II
very ingeniously) which all have the
right and ample privilege to inspect
and 1t is the duty of every voter to SC
do; and if, by such inspection, it Is
found that any official has pledged the
credit of his town to the extent OF
twenty dollars for what might have
been easily procured for ten, or has
pledged the credit of the town for
large sum without any consideration
ofyalue, one of two conclusions mus
be arrived at.
The several towns in our county
should treat their officials after trial, /
incompetent, the same as careful
prudent business man would treat aI
incompetent clerk. The enquiry o
Yoters at the baIlot-bOx should not b.
who will, if elected, furnish the larges
quantity of cigars to their friends, no
who will bring the greatest amount o
fat town patronage to certain parties
but the all-important question SHOULD
be, Who will act for the best interes
of their town impartially? The bust
ness and finances Of each town phoul'
be so conducted that it will be consid
cred a good place to live in.
No doubt many Of the town Office
are filed by good, honest, reliabl
men, who are above suspicion, an
the coat in this article will fit none c
that class, and it is not expected the
will attempt to put it on. Canno
these matters in the several towns b
so managed the coming year that n
one can reasonably complain that the
taxes are unnecessarily large?

Daggett's Want OF Reverence.

Samuel Osborn, the photographer
now in this city, recently received let
ter from a friend in Honolulu, in which
Minister Daggett's want of respect for
royalty is strongly pictured. Alta recep-
tiol some time ago in the Summer Pal
ace, Deggett was examining some OIL
portraits and pointing to the portrait OF
ayoung boy, he said to the Queen:
1"Who is that little duffer, your
majesty ?"
ssThat,n remarked the Queen, with a
tear g~listening in her eye, that is a pic
ture of our little son who died"
The only reply that Daggett made was
an unconscious,
"Oh, h-l!'
At the same reception Daggett asked
the Queen whether she ever drank
whiskey, to which she replied that she
occasionally slipped a bit Of it.
" Well, then" said u Minister,
send your royal demijohn around to the
legation aud Oh shall have a gallon o.
the best you eve Topped your roya-
lips over
that's the kind Of royalty they have
