Attend the Polls.
Next Tuesday will be election day,
and it is important to your interests
that you take time and some little
pains to see thrt tho right men are
elected to fill tho county offices. The
Journal, of course, has its vlowa on
this Bubject, which it freely express
es elsewhere, but we would like,
right hero, to impress upon the
minds of all, tho fact that this elec
tion to couuty offices is the one that
people are mainly interested in. Tho
work that these men shall do or fail
to do concerns our local interests;
fixes the amount of our expenditures
for such things as roads, bridges,
hospitals; labor of different kinds
for the county; supplies necessary
to carry on the business of the va
rious offices, and the ten thousand
things of county housework, bo to
speak, that must be looked after and
guarded. As au intelligent citizen
you are in duty bound to uso your
own good judgment in ascertaining
who is worthy of your support, aud
voting accordingly. This responsi
bility is yours, and no one else can
shoulder it for you. It is your priv
ilege to help pay the bills, and you
should help elect those men that will
work most and work best for the
public good. Men honestly differ
in opinion in matters ofpublic pol
icy as to both men aud measures,
but because we cannot all sco alike
is no reason why each should not
strive to havo his opinion prevail.
Get to the polls early and vote;
induce all you can to do tho same.
If you can prevail upon all of them
to cast for tho republican nominees,
well aud good ; in any event, let
every man appreciate the privilege
of being a part of a government by
tho people, for the people.

The stock up that way went through
last winter in much better shape
than further south. Fremont Her
ald. The calm and prudent discussion
of the right to give to woman the
ballot is gaining ground in this
state rapidly. The feeling among
the women of tho state ia not con
fined to any political class, as intel
ligent ladies on the democratic side
are becoming strongly in favor of
woman's suffrage. They begin to
realize the meaning of a free gov
ernment, and the injustice they have
suffered by beiug deprived of any
participation in the suffrage neces
sary to keep it in honest operation.
Another mark of progress upon this
subject is manifest in the fact that in
many counties permanent organiza
tions have already been made, and
means adopted for disseminating
correct information among the citi
zens upon tho subject of woman
suffrage.

thousand fivo huudred cases wcro
