How to Stay in Office.

The Newberry Herald and News, in
discussing, some recent political con-
tests in this state, says:
"The people, however, do not al
ways elec, the men who do things. On
the contrary they are generally the
ones who are not elected. The way to
remain in Office is to do nothing ex-
cept what you have to do and draw
the salary and look wise"
The Newberry paper hits the nail
squarely on the head. All of US have
known cases in which man in ONCE
who served the people faithfully and
efficiently has been defeated without
cause when he came up for reelection
and we have known cases in which
the man who did nothing at all has
been kept in office indefinitely. This
Is common thing, as we say, but 1T
must be disheartening to those who
get Office and try to be conscientious
in the discharge Of their duties.-AR-
