A Common Duty.
On next Monday, the oth inst.,
the voters of this stato will
decide who are to be 5ur state
officers for the next four years, and
will also express their choice for
county officials. There is a certain
element in the ranks of American
voters that never quite determines
which way it will turn its vote till
the eve of election. The ballots
of these tnen count just as much
on -the day.-of election as their
more thoughtful fellow-citizens,
and sometimes constitute the un
known factor in the problem. It
is a duty that every man owes to
his country, whether he.be native
or naturalised, to vote on election-
day; it is his proudest privilege as
an American sovereign; a privilege
that should, not be abused.
Throughout the state there has
been for tho last month, the usual
amount of campaign charges and
political falsehood," to all of which
our readers will give very little
credence. Vc aro not in the
advice business, we hare neither
endorsed nor opposed any candi
date, but say this much; that no
man who is unfit for a public
trust should be elected; no man
whose interests and prosperity are
not identified with the community
or state should be elected; no man
with one idea in his head, no
man of narrow mind and bigoted
education should be elected, and
here is the point no man should
be voted for simply because he is
on this ticket or that ticket. We
beliove fully in .party ties; it U
necessary that thcre should be
two partiesf the one to watch the
other; this is a .government of
checks and balances, and one
great party looks sharply after the
other, and both do good work as
censors; but personal fitness, busi
ness qualification, integrityof char
acter, and a good honest record, is
what we shall jook at in, making up
our ticket on election dafho time
has gone by when men would vote
for a dog or a devil if lie were- on
their' party-ticket: now a-days men
do their own thinking in matters
of faith, politically as well as re
ligiously, and refuse to swallow
any dose that party managers con
coct for them. Party success is
subordinate to more material
consideration; of course it is very
important whether Brown or-JCiies
or Robinson shall go to Salem to
elect two United States Senators
whose -votes mav turn the scale
of national political supremacy
should the senate be close! v
divided. But it is of more im
.jiortanco to ' us here in Clatsop
county, in a business point of view,
to put men in office who aie faith
ful and honest and who wiil work
for the advancement of our nros-
penty as a community.
Throughout this lilit we have
not'admirred :V single line charg
ing individuals with am- real or
alleged misconduct, cither publicl
or' privately, for this reason, and
this only that . it is generally
more a matter of personal spite
tha"n"nlove for the public that in
spires such a Communication. We
have -no one to recommend for
office, but say in general that the
-posession of a vote makes it the
duty of a man to cast-his vote as
his own intelligence and good
sense'suggests.
In general,'.! citizen's disposi
tion of his vote is "exactly iti ac
cordance with-Ins value of it. If
he doesn't care for it if he con
siders it as being something that
this government gives him that is.
directly coa vertible into coin, or
indirectly convertible into in
fluencelie will use it that way;
if ho have a true conception of
tne grand prerogative ho enjoys.
of being equal in .political power
to any otiier individual in the
country, as far as his individual
yote.is'.conce.rned, he:will use it in
accordance with his direct concep
tion of its value.' Every man should
go to tho polls influencing his own
vote and cast it just exactly as ho
himself thinks best. Political
speeches and po'.iticaf editorials arc
very good, but they aro often toolnUflr Mtnraay,-nne 2d Ar 3d,
much like the speeches and plead-
inga of a lawyer who is engaged i
b,i . r , ,
y the payment of a fee to make
his side appear as good and the
other side as bad as it is possible !
, . mi . I
to represent. The present cam- j
paicn does not admit of much1
splurge. There is no great issue,)
and, taking men just as you meet j
them in the census returns, there ;
. . ' '
IS very little interest. The great-
est pressure on the part of candi
. -i. !
dates is of the internal sort. There
is nothing, to get excited over.
The "bloody shirt" is eliminated
from one side and thecry of "fraud''
from the other; in the state there
is no attempt at any issue; in the
county the question is simply one
of personal consideration, and from
present appearances, the ui.-it .r
sppni; rn Li .1 ;nrr nf "irn.n:-v'.i -
.. 0 .... ,
plcase." The clerks and judges of t
election will have their duties n !
little more onerous than usual by
the free exercise on the part of
tire voters of the privilege of j
"scratching," and, we believe, to
the sober sense and intelligent
discrimination of tho citizens the
result can safelv be left.
