Voting a Duty.

In Vermont and other states where
one or the other party has large
majority a sentiment prevails that it is
of little consequence whether one votes
or does not in the off years. Acting
upon this idea some citizens manage
to get interested in political matters
only once in four years, and at other
times practically neglect-their political
duties. This is a mischievous senti-
ment. 1t is bad custom which allows
a good citizen to excuse himself from
discharging public duty. The man
who desires good government should
make it duty to vote at every election
held where he is voter This is an
off year, and one hears people predict
ing light vote for no other reason
than it is an off year, and so little iu-
terest in political matters. There should
be quite as much personal interest in
the election in Vermont this year as
there was two years ago. Nay, more
so. The legislature will be called upon
to act upon more important questions
and measures. There are number of
reasons why it is important that the
Republican ticket should have a full
vote in Vermont this year, therefore let
us get out full vote and show to the
country at large that our organization is
vigorous and its ranks full that it is
full of courage, intact in numbers, and
strong and sincere in it's devotion to
party principles. Let us have an en-
phatic declaration at the polls to this
effect.
