Watching With interest every

Charles Scott. one of its prominent
citizens. Of his candidacy for the
Governor>hip. Some Of the decla-
rations Of his platform are vorthy
Of reproduction. no less for their
terseness Of expression than for
their sounduess Of principle He
says;
ITO begin with. I want it dis
tinctly understood that / am no

to no man and to no set Of men.
Il also want it understood that
am running on my own merits,
whatever they may be, and not on
the deme1ts, real or imaginary. Of
any of my numerous and honorable
competitors.
These are strong, dignifed and
manly utterances in themselves, but
the fact that candidate for such
an exalted position feels called on
to make them is an indication that
in his State, as in this Of ours, there
Is well-grounded opinion among
the voters that influential persons,
coteries and factions. rather than
the majority of voters. select its
officers. and that elections are car
ried by combinations, promises and
many other ways that are dark
and tricks that are vain.
If the declarations of Mr.. Scott
are truthfulIy and sincerely made, |

nas our most earnest wishes for his |
success. We would rejoice to see
he rule established Of electing Gov
