Mr. Jill fur’: As thn ehfilm f. i
county officers will soon bo tmvlo, id
would bo w oil lor the people to (’nsl
alioul in their ii+imlv ha ingu due i-o
--yard to tlre i'+Vtenst. 1 f tho enmity. Is
is to lie lVyi'etfurl l Unit tlitre is not
more iW-roony. It is always ilnti
gei-oivs- t'rr yd up excit 'incut upon
local i-saes, and especially is this true
when ibe strife is between members
of tlie same political faith. Our ob
ject is So remote all littonicss and
produce mi our midst a 1 ealing of the
troubled waters. Men ought in poli
tes to nse the Same disoatiiioii th-y
observe ift tlic ordinary transactions
of life, tjmt is to say, gel the best ar
ticle for the amount expended, ami
that toerwithout reference from whom
the pitrel hc is rnmle. In other wonh,
the pay bf a good officer does not ex-
ceed dutt *v a poor one, hence it fol j
lows did in order to nuke tl e best ;
trade tire' best officer should be chosen,
and no Weslion should bo asked
whether he lives in town or in the
country. The idea of locality entering
into the question is absurd. In nearly
all the offices to tie filled the duties of
tVc .chosen are merely mii.istciia], ;
bettce the gsont essential qualification
is to be found in the lmnsty of ihe
tfßcer. We&ic glad to know dial all
whose names are now prominent, pre
sent unexceptional charncteis in this
tree aid, ami the office \v:!i he well ill iel,
-doubtless, let tlic choice fall w here it
maw. ’There is, huxveVcl*, otic ill ice to
wifi A the people ought to look wit.li
wise discretion, xve refer io the ()r<!i
fiary’s office. There is not a Court in
lic State more important. Tlitoigh |
its acljutlifaiions tlie estates of the dead j
ami the lights ami interest of the j
widows ami ot phans are passed up mu j
A mote sacred charge could jot "’<ll j
be conceived of. One to fill that pogt
tion well should not only possess the j
qualification mentioned ill relation to i
the other cilices hut should be j
well versed tn the knowledge of the!
law. If a due regard to this impoit
ant fact was had, very much expen
sive and prolonged litigation might j
nnd wou'd be avoided. Want of a
knowledge, oi the law often tvsults in
pri or {lint can only be correct' and j.’.y
Mi appeal to the Superior Comf. Tins
is wrong because expensive, and all
moneys expended in litigation neces
sarily 1 crults in loss cither to the
heirs or thecteditors. To the creditor
'if the estate is insolvent; to the luir
if the estate is solvent -neither should
be, anti, in many cases, neither would
lose if the Judge was well informed
upon the law. 1 n short, we are of
the opinion that a mail to w hom is
ill 1 rusted the adminis j'ut'on of the
law ought to know the law, and no
man can know the law well who does
not make jt-a study. Row, we often
hear people my that they will ’ not
vote for a lawyer. This is wrong. If
we were going to hnyc a house built
we would get a carpenter i if a mill,
n machinist. It', to have a farm cul
tivated we would get ,afarmer. So if
seems to us 1 hat if good and sufficient
reasons justify what ?we have said
upon this line of thought, if follows
that if we were choosing an officer io
pass upon the legal rights of others
we would elect a lawyer.
No one would think of p)&cUig .on
the bench of the Superior Court n
man who had never rend and prac
ticed law. ]l the rule is a good one,
in regard to that Court, why does it
not hold good in regard to the Court
of Ordinary? The rights of widows
an 1 the interest of minors area.ssae.rcd
and should be as scrupulously pro
tected as the interest or any other
pcop'c. Can this be done hy placing
n man in the office who docs not. pos
sess a knowledge of the law. As
well might you expect to have a
beautiful homo built by a blacksmith
or a successful mill built by a man
who knows nothing of the laws of ma
.chincry. This is wrong my country
men. And let us in tins matter act
with that common sense and judgment,
used by us in reference to our individ
ual intcret.
This is written in the interest of no
particular candidate, but with the
nope of allaying those prejudices
which exist in the mind without cause
and contrary to reason. Let ns bury
the hatchet, so far as the past is in
volved, and look forward to the future,
having as our motto ‘•Reform." The
inauguration of Tilden is a change in
the right direction. Let us see to it.
that changes (when necessary) will
continue to-be made until the offices
from the highest to the lowest arc
tilled by men who have the interest of
the peop c at heart, and in a short
time our Government will b pro
pelled by tite use of a much smaller
amount of money raised by taxing
the already heavily oppressed people.
Very Respectfully,
I'OU.XTiSVMAX.
