TEEILLIrERNTE VOTER.

There are l,S7L2I7 illiterate votes in
the United States, which means that there
are that number who cannot read or write.
II is a face known to every Observant
reader of this paper, however that the illit-
crate voter is not the only ignorant voter,
and that there are many who can read Glib
ly and write ike Copperplate, who have as
little understanding as possible Of how to
cast their ballots so as to COnduce to the
best interests Of the country.
No test, perhaps would designate the ig-
nOrant voter so frequently and miss him so
iufrequently as the test of the ability to
read and write, but the number OF those
who have no adequate conception Of the
principles of the party with which they vote,
or of the policies of government they help
by their ballots to decide, isinfnitely great
er than the number Of those who have
never acquired the ability to read the Ian,
guage or express themselves in the chirO
graphic art.
These are the ones whose arguments are
brass bands, and caps, and capes, and
torches, and kazoos, aud feathers, and bet
ting, and buster and brag.
These are those who catch up campaign
cries without having the slightest apprecia
ton Of their real significance, snd 60 shout
ing them about the streets, convinced that
thereby they sre saving their country.
These are those who drink in everything
told them from their own side and know
as they ever, BY instinct, that it is true as a
general proposition that all the other side
say is false.
The woods are iull OF them and the fool
killer would have 10 live to be older than
Methusaleh to get through with them all,
though he laid about him ever so briskly,
nliteracy and ignorance are not necessa-
rily synonymous terms.
