An exchange truthfully says a large class
of persons who infest this world are we'll term
ed croakers. How many there are of them?
They have always been abundant, l think,
from the time that Noah began TO preach till
the present, and they will remain in the world,
perhaps, till the coming of the long-anticipa-
ted general confagration which has been SO
often the subject of prophecy. They are birds
of evil omen, and have often placed obstruc-
tions in the way of the car of progress. By
croakers we mean those persons who are al
ways looking at the dark side of human life,
who can see the cloud but never the silver
lining, and who are always complaining, re-
pining, murmuring, prophecying evil, never
saying anything pleasant and agreeable, but,
on the contrary, all things that nobody wants
to hear. They are incapable of making any
improvement themselves, and they are ever
ready to hinder others from doing so. They
can shake their heads in a wonderfully know
ing way and cry out you never can-you
will do no ~good-you will lose your labor"
when they see a neighbor engage in a new en-
terprise, and can tell him a hundred and one
pitiful stories of failures, starvation and pre-
mature death and other calamities of a fear
full nature. They do nothing but retard the
progress of enterprise both private and pub

Il is COMING!
For the Democrat.
Elections.

Editor Eaton Democrdt-The suggestions
in the last issue of the DEMOCRAT were good,
in regard to "Spring Elections" and what
kind of men should fill offices who handle and
disburse public moneys, and should be OBJ
served in all towns and townships throughout
the county. 1t has been too often the case
chat township tickets are frequently made out
by cliques-half a dozen men meet in some
private house, or upon some store-box or some
office, or perhaps in some bar-room or saloon,
make out a ticket with names of their choice,
and on election day Cor before, perhaps,) the
voters take them, as it would be an absolute
necessity, because of party or Indifference.
We believe the time has come when people
should vote as citizens, not as partizans; for
principle, not policy; for men who manage
their private affairs well, not for those who
care not whether taxes be high or low, and
can't successfully manage their own affairs.
If such tickets be given TO the voters and there
are no blank tickets to be had, let every voter
go to the polls prepared with pencil and
of men who will manage our public funds ju-
diciously. The office of Assessor is an impor-
tant one, and the people should be careful who
they vote for to fill that office; likewise Trus-
tees of Townships; also, members of Coun-
ellis and members of the Boards of Education,
and as there is so much Importance attached
to these offices, probably, and we think the
people,, not the parties, should meet at their
voting places at some stated time (say Satur-
day, in the afternoon, goth or 9th of March, J
and then and there make out a Peoples Tick
e. of their choice, then on election day they
need not scratch and insert nor vote a ticket
that is made by a few designing men or clique,
