claring a law unconstitutional, except
upon a vote of two thirds of Its mem
bors. At tho present time by a 5 to
4 vote' this court overturned a law
passed by almost 400 congressmen,
90 senators and tho President of the
United StateB. By such a method this
Coutt has killed tho Child Labor
Law and tho law preventing gambling
on stock oxchanges.
We, as Americans, take pride in
tho idea that we beliovo. and prrte
l;e giving
square deal. Wo aro fairly truo
to this 'ideal excopt after wo havo
elected a man to offico. Think it
over and note the fact that you
havo helped elect ninny good men
to office, but only h few that you
did not go back on after having
elected them. We allow our wrath
such unlimited sway in these crit
icisms that many of our best men
refuse to enter politics. In fact,
tho man who offers to servo tho
people in these days should have
the hide of a rhinoccrous, nnji tho
feelings of a stuffed toad. Other
wise he will be hurt.
By allowing ourselves this fun
of pernicious criticism we discour
se the courageous man who is
honestly doing his duty, we mako
a crook f tho morally weak but
courageous man, and cover tho
deeds cf tho crooked man by our
smoke barrage of hearsay exaggera
tions, and lies based on ignorance
of conditions and of circumstances.
In coming to tho polls next Tues
day, let us be true to our Ameri
can ideal of fair play. If we know
a candidate is incompetent, because
of moral, intellectual, or mental
defects, discard him and persuade
others to do the same. If we know
nothing of him, it would bo fair
to say nothing about him. If wo
knowvhim well and of our own
knowledge, know of no questionable
inefficient or crooked acts, would
it not be exercising good sense on
our part to conclude that he is
the same man, as before he regist
ered at the primaries? If our closo
friends of their own knowledge
know nothing unfavorable concer-
ig him, we have additionl assurance
that. he is still worthy of our trust.
Then, if those who are boosting
an opposing candidate, or have a
petty personal grievance, or who
have criticism based on the whisp
erings of tho wind on a cloudy night
come to us with suspicions, heresays
and unconfirmed reports, is it
wise to give their chatter much
serious consideration?
We would dislike to spread evil
reports, more especially if untrue,
of any one, and most surely if
we had trusted that one as an
acquaintance or friend. There nev
er have been more difficult times
for the office holder. The. men
who handle our, finance hear the
constant cry of "Less Taxes". The
men who enforce tho law are meet
ing conditions when the lawbreak
ers use brains as well as bullets.
The history of Jessy James, and
narratives of Kentucky moonshiners
are duplicated in every newspaper
that publishes news. The fact that
a man has, worked for us faithfully
and effeciently for one year or for
ten years is not the reason that wo
should fire him. As long as he is
the best man we can hire for" the
job we shall retain him if we can.
With us this applies to public as
well as private business. Likewise,
in private or in public business, if
a man is not making good, it is
exercising good judgement to re
place him by a better man,
But in all this -as American cit
izens living in the best county in
the best state of the greatest na
tion that has yet existed, let us
give the other fellow a squar,e deal,
and sec that tho spirit of fair
play rather than the habit of fault
finding and knocking rule our act
