Indeed, if desired, we are willing for the

A candidate for the office of lister in
st. Jobnsbury made an open appeal for
support on the ground that he, foreign.
born citizen, should be elected in recogni-
ton of the considerable element of that
classin st. Johnsbury. Ofcourse, strictly
speaking, this is no argument at all.
The best man for the office should have
it, regardless of birth. But we are in.
clined to believe that there is a modicum
OF sense in the plea. In not few of onr
communities, there is unreasonable jeal
ousy and prejudice against those of for
eign birth. to the extent that their mer
its as citizens and possible office-holders
are not given just consideration Ran
