A GOOD cIrtzrN.
sam Jones Enuncratcs tho GOOD Qualities
n n s NIulte-I-n

sam Jones EuuWrrAtcs Tho Good Qualities
iu n $ Nakc-Up.
II Is worth our while in these days Of
platforms and parties to consider what
are the essential elements of good
citizen.
The first essential is intelligence. Tho
boy who grows up to manhood un-
trained aud uutaught, ignorant of the
history of nations and peoples, who
could not define the difference be-
tween monarchy and republic, who
does not know the difference between
organic law and statute law, who is
a democrat or a republican or populist
or a greenbac.Ser, simply because his
father was, with a blind adherence TO
partyism and absolutely ignorant of
principles, can never be good citizen.
But the young man who walks up to
the ballot box for the first time thor
oughly posted on political economy and
governmental principles, intelligently
expressing his views in his ballot--he
starts out with one of the elements
of a good citizen.
Another element which lies at the
very basis of good citizenship is pa
triotism, love of country, devotion to
her institutions, loyalty TO her laws.
The highest patriotism in the world
Is the patriotism that helps protect
the innocent, that supports the weak,
that which helps the enforcement of
law, the punishment of criminals, and
allies himself with everything that
/ tends to good government, law and
order. | am sure it is not the highest
patriotism that lives disregardful of
all the best interests of our govern
ment and then when the declaration
of war is made to shoulder a gun and
go TO the front and be willing to die
for your country. He is n much better
citizen who Is willing to live for his
country. Best citizenship is not ex-
pressed in whooping for Old Glory
while political speeches are being made
or bursting firecrackers on the Fourth
of July.
The next element OF good citizenship
is good moral character. Let man
i've so that every deed and word of his
life but furnishes maxim for uni
versal application, SO that II every man
did and thought as he did the world
would be purer and better. Let u man
have personal honesty, commercial hon
esty, political honesty, and honesty fos-
tered by good conscience and a de-
termined heart and will, the honesty
which makes a mans word his bond
= Let him have not only the morality
which makes man honest, but the NOR
aiity which is made up of the effects
OF Christianity, which scorns profan.
ity, despises uncleanness and shuns evil
associations; the morality which Il
the result of purity Of character, thu
morality which is able to resist temp
tauon, to conquer the besetting sin,
of life. and which lifts you above tn,
shafts and sings of Aour enemies.
