Politics is beginning to form
in the "shell** and "hatching"
candidates will soon be in order.
Already many of our exchang-
es are begining to contain polit-
ical announcements and several
of the p apers contain almost a
column of "I hereby" reading.
Things political are begining
to sizzle in Beaver, county also,
and there is going to be lively
times as the campaipn advances,
(one of the liveliest ever seen in
this part of the state) The tax-
payers do not like the way a few
officials, for whom they created
a snug bed, have been doing
and the result will likely be
that they will get a glorious
"turning down" this time.
We are on to a few facts that
will make mighty interesting
reading during the campaign
and don't forget but what we'll
spring it. That's why we are in
the newspaper business—to put
the people next. Informing the
taxpayers as to the acts of those
whom they elected to serve in a
public capacity without fear or
favor. We expect to voice our
sentiments in the coming con-
test and give our reasons for it.
Several leading citizens have
been mentioned for different
offices—what we want are men
who are capable of handling the
business end of the office, and
not put men in office because
they they have made good with
their neighbors or because some
misfortune has befallen them;
we should look upon such things
as in the past.
Let's begin to think over this
question. The time for chang-
ing county officers or putting the
old ones back is not far disant
What we want are men who
will have the interest of the
people at heart and not look
altogether to his own financial
gain. And—until we can get
men of this "stripe" the county
government will continue as
"rotten" as it has been in the
past.
Did it ever occur to you, that
it is not always the most popu-
lar man who will make the best
officer or is competent to fill
an
$3000 a year for a county judge
who works probably one twenti-
eth of his time, is to much—Be-
sides the extra $35 to $50 per
month he is allowed for clerk
hire. Then again, the very fel-
low that never had over a $10
fee from a client in his life;
as soon as the people put him in
office, he'll begin to roar and
howl that he could make twice
as much at his practice, and at
the same time—before he went
into office; the signal of distress
was flying from the business
part of his pants.
Really the county officials sal
eries are to high—BUT— what
will the cutting of the saleries
have to do with the part of
"GRAFT."
Religion and politics are vast-
ly different. A man may be
popular in religious circles and
yet, be wholly incapable of hand-
ling things politic.
