THE TOWNSHIP ToTER.

Sad Is the commentary that it re- quires no more than township con- stables race to bring into activity the ever zea!ous Township Toter Probably every community is infested with this type. The call for an cleo. tion of any kind is his call to either curry favor through alleged political support, or seek remuneration for the blue sky and temperatured atmos- frsssere Ae has to peddle.
 The type is fast fading, but it is characteristic. The curb is his stamp ing ground. Himself an office seeker by profession. he sometimes through mishap gets into office, but he does not last long. The voter whose vote he pretends to shape and control soon gets next, and the ballot that he pretends 10 barter is pencil marked across his name.
 He then takes up permanent cuS5 stone position and occupies it until he Is burshed aside and forgotten.
 The Township Toter does not ever "deliver' es he pretends. Like oth- CTS, he has some influence. He brays much, ant for this noise becomes con spIcuous. But there is Il difference between being conspicuous and be. ing influential. Before election he tells what he will do. and after elec- tion boasts what he has done.
 But the people are not so gulliible as they are often proclaimed. Most citizens enter eledtion booths with very we'll defined ideas of their own. They view ticket appropriated They vote either to reflect personal friendships or to aid in the choosing Of the best men and most qualified men for public places. always choos- ing with view of securing public officers who will attend to the task assigned them. and not attempt to dominate all public affairs.
 As often as the people are libeled about being "delivered' or voted as some politician would have them. they usually manage to think for themselves. and to vote their own sentiment within the sanctity of the election booth.
