too MUCH GENERALIZATION.

Mr.. Ford Is right. There is too much
Capitalization In state and county az
fairs.
There ls constant complaint over the
county court system. In the Older
counties It is degeneratiDg into a kind
OF irresponsible centralized despotism.
The people are sorely in need Of the
township system of New England.
Then they would elect their own
township clerk, assessor, road super.
visor and township trustees and vast
amount Of business that 10 now done
only at the county seat would be far
better done and more cheaply. There
should be more power kept back among
the masses Of the people.
The office Of district attorney should
also be abolished and county attorneys
elected, with compensation fixed by the
county commissioners and no fees.
Now we have both district and county
attorneys and both get fees.
