THE SEK.VTORSI11F.
Politics In the Abstract.
Ah tlie time draws near
for the convening of the
Legislature the senatorial fight
becomes more interesting: to
the1 contestants. The candidates
are rnumereus: , first, of course
comes .1. H. Mitchell: then come
Judge Boise, AY. Lair Hill, W. D.
Hare, Geo. H. "Williams, and two
or three others who hope to figure
as a dark horse. Mitchell seems to
have his forces in the best training;
yet it is claimed by main' that if
his opponents concentrate they can
make if extremely tropical for him.
- Butt is pretty generally conceded
thatMitchell will be nominated in
caucus and put through on the
first ballot.
-'Tis interesting in the abstract
to note the course of "polities'
which to the average candidate is
confounded with place. In every
fight like the present the prospect
ive bowls of soup constitute the
prize for which all are striving.
The man that is out of it is the
best off. Years ago we ran for of
fice and, luckily got left, because
we told the people in our speeches
just what we believed to be the
truth instead of what they wanted
to hear. 'Tis like the measles or
whooping cough, or falling in love,
or getting vaccinated: it comes to
nearly every one semetime: lie
gets over it, and goes on all right.
But, seriously speaking, it is worthy
of note how much the getting and
holding of office has come to be a
profession. ' It is a trade by itself,
and one that requires skill, tact,
and a long apprenticeship in whicli
to win success. It lakes a high
order of talents of a certain kind,
and we know of nothing in our
civilization that more apth illus
trates the doctrine of natural se
lection than the perseverance with
which men continue to seek for of
fice and profitable emolument and
so arrange that ultimate triumph
may crown the result. As for be
lieving all that is said of a man in
prominent position none but the
depraved or utterly foolish do that.
A man that has no enemies doesn't
amount to a hill of beans. The
fact that he has no enemies shows
that he has no individuality; that
there is nothing positive to him;
that he never "stays with" what he
says. Of course we don't mean
that the possession of one's neigh
bors' ill will indicates any exit a
ordinary cleverness; but our mean
ing can be illustrated by the re
mark we once heard an old man in
Wisconsin make in reference to a
neighbor ot whom 'twas said "there
was no harm in him.,, "No," was
the rejoinder, "nor is there any
-good in' him, cither." As Frank
Pixley says in the last number of
his free-spoken paper: "The man
.who-has no enemies deserves no
friends. The man who has never
made a mistake, or done wrong,
. is the man who never had the cour
age to attempt to assert the right.
The man who has never slopped
over is like the empty bucket that
has no contents to spill, and the
man who can, truly say that he has
changed no opinion, and has been
ever consistent, makes the broad
.. admission that he is an idiot who
has had no opinions to change. It
is better to be right to-day tHan
consistent with 3Testerda3'. The
broad-minded man of brains who
has the courage to thinkisl neces
sarily progressive. He keeps pace
with 4 events. CHc keeps abreast
with the time. He changes with
conditions. c He rises to the level
of his surroundings, lie has the
couragejto 'breast 'the popular
wave'and to stem the popular cur
rent. "When the Augean stables
'"were cleansed-of their accumulated
filth by the labor of neicules, tiie
dung of oxen floated with the cur-
ijrent of the stream. It is the amp
ly bottles and the rotten apples
that, drifting with the.tide, proudly
exclaim: 'See how we swim.5"
