That depends largely on the patrloti«in ol the Individual citizen*. If the good of the State and her people shall be the. con trolling purpose the now way will be better than the old pathif?

The right to vole Is a privilege that every free man should appreciate and a trust that every good man should discharge a* he values his personal honor. In puUing the ballot in the hands of her eons thv State makes each an officer In service, gives her good name and pros- perlty, her present and her future Into their keeping, and the voter who will fully throws his Influence for personal end*, to get gain for himself, to reward a friend or punish an enemy, Is just as erialnal In the ejra of conscience as the office bolder who gore wrong or the trested employee who proves unworthy.

Why then should they not be tolerant of each oth er’s views and opinions?

Ho Tnx Pxoi’Lic offers this counsel that individual judg ment of the light of issues and the choice of candidates, within the party lines, is the best and safest guide of ac tion*. In that way and no other can the political education of the people go on to higher grades. For if men so far dis trust themselves as to surrender their convictions and consent to be governed in their actions by others no whit more patriotic or better calculated to lead than themselves, tliey dwaxi their man hood and bind themselves with leading airings that will in time harden into fet ters impossible to be broken. The highest order o/ courage is that which influences one to have faith in himself and to obey the conviction* of his conscience and the teachings of his judgment. All the heroes of airtime were cast in that mould and he that ru-* Jeth himself is greater than he that tak- eth a city. A good beginning towards better days will be made when the In dividual recognises his responsibility as a factor in the political problems of his time apd demonstrates that he is kept in no raan’a breeches pocket. And no permanent and continuous progress in that direction can be made until that principle and policy broaden into gen •ral acceptance. Hev&lutkm* never*go backward.
