GOVERNMENT

- - .
In the drst place you should
ask yourself, what is Govern
ment? Government is the agent
which society uses to secure JUS
ticc and progress. Good Govern
ment is Il protection, and Il nation
cannot progress without lt-.Poor
Government is detrimental aud q
nation cannot prosper with it.
Government is made by the
people, Of the people, aud for the
peoples benefit. Government is
based on the citizens For the
citizens elect the officers, and the
solhcers make the Government
Then the citizen should DO care
ful who he votes for, they should
try to elect officers who would
look aztec the interest of the poo
pie. Just think what the officers
of our state Government is doing
to-day selling THAR votes, brihing
and boodling, and dong any.
thing for money. This should
stop, we want our Government
to be protection and not 4 dan.
