The utter foolishness of seeking an
holding political Office or appointive
slace Is well illustrated in the case of
Fish Commissioner John w. Titcomb.
The same ability and effort which he
has devoted to poorly paid official SER
vice II devoted to private business
would have placed him at his present
lge in an independent position with
other business of his own or an a.
sured place in some field of effort. IN
stead this he is at the mercy of a leg
slature which in part at least is no
in sympathy with the department OF
which he is the head. He is likely
% lose his place and have to start
over again in some other state. Yet
what is happening to him is likely to
happen to any man who accepts
place in the public service. We some
times congratulate young man on
getting an appointment at Montpelier
or Washington and are inclined to
think him lucky or specially favored.
In nine cases out of ten we should ex-
tend regret and sympathy. He may
hold the place with credit but too oft
en- it happens that when it is too late
to learn a trade or profession or TO
train himself in business he gets
thrown out and left high and dry to
lace a world in which he can find no
work for which he is fitted. A young
man who has ability and energy is al
most always unfortunate when elected
to office or appointed to political
position.
