WED. APR. -, 1910,
THE GOOD CITIZEN, HIS BUSINESS
AND CIVIC OBLIGATIONS.

The following article was writ
ten by Mr.. C.. S. Harris and read
by him before the Citizens Meet
ing last Sunday afternoon. A
motion was made and carried
that it be published in the News:
There M a y b e diversity of
opinion as to the characteristics
of a good citizen-the qualities
necessary to make him, but to
my mind, he is a man rigidly
honest, strictly truthful, obedient
to the laws-one whose living
conforms to an active conscience
and measures up to the ideals of
a useful, honorable life.
| do not know, nor can l
imagine any place in business,
or in political life, but such a
man should fill. An honest man
in business is indispensable and
so much so that few succeed who
do not enjoy the confidence of
the public, even though endowed
with extraordinary ability.
The right thinking man, the
one who has due regard for the
welfare of others, who applies
the Golden Rule in his business,
is the one that the great bulk OF
people delight to see prosper, in
other words, the obligations Of
a good citizen in the business
world are so important, so neces.
sary to the welfare of his owr
interests and the good of others
that no one would attempt to dis.
credit him. AS civilization has
advanced and Christian virtues
extended, the trend of public liv.
ing has likewise kept pace anG
The Adair County news., 1910-04-13

Der represents very small per-
cent of our population. Through
out the entire country the ten
dency toward better political
living seems to be pressing its
Importance on the good citizens
and the stronger this sentiment
because the more exacting de-
mands will be made as to the
personality Of party nominees.
Instead of blindly following the
prejudices of political parties, in
defending men of questionable
standing and fitness, the trend
of thought and action of the best
people discredits such a course.
The Importance Of right thinking
and right living is pressing to
the front. The evidence of the
common brotherhood of men
that we all owe our best efforts
to the principles that maintain
justice and foster love and good
will is fast and thoroughly gain
ing ground. To briefey state
it the good citizens Of our coun-
try are increasing and taking a
keener interest in the welfare of
others, in the honor and stand
ing of their respective communi-
ties and in their duty to the
Great Giver of good. In all of
the avenues of business and in
every proposition the moral up
lift, within the last few decades,
has been most noticeable. The
merchant, not many years ago,
was regarded, by a large number
of people, an instrument in the
business world merely to extract
the earnings of others, but to-
day he is viewed in a different
light and held in high esteem as
an important factor in the well
fare of the country. So it is in
all other lines of business and
employment. The lawyer, the
physician a nd all tn e pro-
fessions have not only enlisted
men Of talent, but of high
ideals of life and who believe in
giving the world something as
well as taking from it. The young
man should remember when he
enters business that he is not
merely acting or living for HIM
self; that he must give as well
as receive, that he must produce
as well as collect. The allure
ments of business, the attractions
of political prestige and power
should never reduce the relations
between the good citizen and his
duty to himself, his country and
his God.
I!
The Adair County news., 1910-04-13

points more and more toward the
Golden Rule, appreciated by all
and endorsed by the upright in
every avenue of business. The
more is known the higher esti-
mate is placed on good conduct;
the broader the knowledge of
mans relation to man, the more
thoroughly upright living, good
citizenship is endorsed and gen.
timely appreciated as applied to
the varied realms O f business
life. No man has any moral
right to take an undue advantage
of his fellow man. Our laws are
supposed to be founded on the
principles that established and
maintain justice, that encourage
right living and discourage evil.
Within the last few years more
evidence of the worth of good
citizenship and more disapproval
of the undesirable and bad has
been evidence, than for many
years proceeding. Not only is
this true in the ordinary affairs
of business, but profoundly so
in the political life of the country.
The political obligations of a good
citizen is as important and as far
reaching toward justice as is his
private, personal pledges that
can not be forfeited without dis
honor. True manhood revolts
against dishonorable methods in
business and the Investigations
and prosecutions by our national
officials and the officials of diff
ferent States and cities to main
tain justice and punish those who
betray public trust, is wide spread
and meeting the approval of a
large majarity OF the people. The
duty of a good citizen politically,
is not to merely see his party
emblem when he votes, not to
endorse and defend any means
and measures that may be deem
ed essential to party success, but
to stand against fraud and for
such men as, will, in his judg-
ment, give the best to the public.
There are some who believe that
success necessarily depends on
unholy schemes, who will stoor
to the depth of any disreptable
method to get a n advantage
whether in business or political
affairs, but fortunately the mum.

THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

The ticket nominated last Sat.
urday by the Democratic county
convention is all that any who
has been keeping up with affairs
could have expected.
The nomination of Sheriff,
Register of Deeds, Clerk, and
Treasurer without opposition was
remarkable. We will not say
which, but it means one of the
two things. Either they fill the
position SO well that nobody cared
to tackle the job, or they are
such good politicians that other
candidates thought it useless.

people were not satisfied about it
before say very little about it
