Thoughts For The Times
Citizens cannot afford to evade Their Duty. This is what the Hon. Kliliu Root says: —lt is not rightly a matter of choice whether a man shall trouble himself about affairs of Government in this community It is a matter of peremptory obligation.” Experience has shown that apathy in regard to municipal affairs does not pay. The wrong class of men are aef to slip into office, and experiments oi the most fantastic and expensive description are liable to be foisted on the unsuspecting miblic. Experience has also demonstrated that where every intelligent citizen is aroused to a full sense of his duty, and places in power the right mail, everyone benefits thereby, and thus progress becomes the order of the day.
