LET US NOT CHANGE.

According to a custom
long ago established Sharp
county is entitled to the sue.
cessor to Hon. A. J. Witt,
OF Randolph county, in the
State senate. The Maynard
Enterprise fayors Sharp
county nominating the can
dldate and Randolph and
Lawrence counties endorsing
our nominee. The Record
does not favor this plan for
several reasons. We think
such a plan is unprecedented.
Since the formation of the
district it has been custom.
airy for but one county, &C
cordlng to rotation, to put
forth candidates, but, unless
we are badly mistaken, the
other two counties have al.
ways had a voice in naming
the nominee. We submit
that tits not in accordance
with justice and fairness for
one county to have full sway
in the matter of choosing a
member for the whole sena-
torial district. 1t is Sharp
county's turn now; the people
of this county are we'll &C.
qualnted with the candidates
and we claim that the people
OF Randolph and Lawrence
counties should see and hear
our material and judge for
themselves who is best fitted
to represent their interests
in the State senate. 1t &C.
ours to us that this is the
safest and " is e S t plan.
Then, should mistakes occur,
none can be laid at the door
OF one county alone. We
feel safe in saying that in
the futureSthe.. Democracy of
Sharp county will desire a
voice in the nomination as
we'll as in the election of a
State senator, so let's not es-
tablish a precedent that can
be productive of much evil
and from which much dissat.

They are men who go into public life
without the slightest conscience in this
regard They do not pretend to have any
other motive than that of making money.
They have not shame even tO veil It:
What do you suppose 1 am here for?'
they say. AS to the idea of virtue in pub
lie service, it would require a surgical
operation to get it into the heads of many
of them. Largely our public men have
adopted two codes of morals-one by
which they regulate their dealings be-
w cen man and man at home, and one by
which they regulate their dealings be-
tween man and man abroad. There are
many men whose word in political life
| would not take for moment, but whose
word in private life L would not for mo-
ment doubt. They hold that anything
is right in politics. That is the reason
why so many of our public men are
like the old mama that fell in the will
derness and that would not keep two
days if it was exposed. l do not deny
that there is bright side to our mod
ern city life. While it stands for all
that is corrupt and evil, it stands also
for all that is noble and good. Where
will you find life so rapid, so brilliant.
so full of inspiration and of vigor. as in
the great city. What Horace Greeley
once said of New York is true of every
great city, ANY man who wants to sue
coed must be willing to do two days
work in one" The cities control the
