DID YOU EVER STOP
TIC THINK
By Edison R. Waite

-
william Tudor Gardiner, Governor
of Maine, says:
That it is not only privilege but a
duty to make use of the ballot. Part
of the foundation scheme OF our
government is party government, and
the call to vote for a candidate Tor
public office should be needed by every
man and woman of voting age.
The success OF the enterprise tester
ed by our Constitution can be insured
only as the spirit of the Constitution
is reflected in the hearts and in the
actions of the individuals who are COM
ponent parts Of the government.
If one watches pair Of draft horses
he can readily tell if either animal is
laying back in the harness. The carry
ing on Of democracy is a similar
affair, multiplied many millions of
times. If one lays back in the harness
among so many millions it may not be
noticed, but who IS the one entitled to
such great consideration as to have
permission not to pull his share? The
man or woman who thinks he or she
has this right that comparatively few
could have, if the purposes expressed
in the preamble of the Constitution
were to be carried out.
Our representative government has
set up a system of checks and balances,
but a sufficient number of votes in
certain places over period OF time
could turn liberty into slavery, turn
justice into despotisin, turn common
welfare into common sorrow. The
common exercise of that power is
necessary for the orderly maintenance
of government. The power to vote is
the power 10 build or 10 destroy. To
have the right to vote and to refuse
to exercise it is to fall in duty.
No one can tell which cubic foot of
water flowing down river is the one
that turns the wheels of industry. 1t
is the whole stream flow that does the
work. No one can say the individuals
share in public affaiTs is small. no
5he great all things are great, to the
small all things are small
