So it was arranged that Alice should
have the trip to California as her

graduation proved far more expensive

was the most popular girl in her class.
She received many favors and she hao

The elections of members of the Colonial
Council, to take the places of those who nave
retired, comes off, as will have been seen
from official notices, on the Dist inst, as lar
as concerns the members for the towns, and
on the 22nd inst. as far as concerns MEMBERS
for the country.
On the approach of elections at any time
there is generally a rise in The temperature
of our political atmosphere, the amount of
which may be measured by the number and
tone Of the letters on the subject which APP
pear in the local papers. At the last elections
the temperature III West End rose consider
ably, but on this occasion the weather in
that quarter, so far as we can Judge at pre-
sent, seems to be quite mild. OF course there
may be q change of wind there between now
and the elections, and IN that case there
would be 10 telling to what height the mer-
curry might go,
Here in Christiansted there has been a
moderate rise already, and we suppose that
it will increase as the days pass by.
Anticipating the receipt of further let
ters on the subject, we would beg to
take the liberty to say a few words to
those who purpose "to take up the pen
on behalf OF one or other of the candidates.
And first we would ask Why not sign
your own names to your letters ? Ii you
have a good cause, there can be no reason
to be ashamed / of it, and the signature would
look much better than a nom de plume, from
behind the shelter Of which You perhaps
mean to throw a few brick bats into the enc
my's quarters.
We would also respectfully suggest that
the subject matter should not be the merits
and dement's Of the several candidates so
much as the questions which you wish to see
brought forward and furthered. Our motto
in this case should be "Measures not Men,
and even in the discussion of measures we
need not introduce unnecessary warmth,
If the above two suggestions were follow
ed we might perhaps get a really useful lis
cussion, instead of a mere interchange of
irritating compliments.
While, however, we have recommended
above that the writer's of letters should sign
their own names, we do not mean to say that
we will necessarily refuse others. We can
easily understand that ii voter might wish to
make his views public and at the same time
might desire with good reason to secure for
himself, in doing so, q like secrecy to that
which is secured for him by law at the poll
ing place, and provided his letter in such
case was otherwise unobiectionable, we should
be glad to assist him but at the same time
it is q matter of course that we reserve our
right to supply the Printing Office with a
little ice, in case the temperature should be
found to be rising at an uncomfortable rate.
