VFFI CE- SEEKING.
Atlanta Phonograph.)
Office-seeking has at this dny be
come sucb a common occurrence that
no one is struck with surprise by see
ing it displayed by persons in tbe
highest, walks ol life, and in pursuit
of the Highest office. So far has it
gone that the public have come
to th conclusion Hist no man ought
to have an office who does not want
it enough to work for it. ludoed,
the stories of the past, that in former
times the office sought the man, and
not the man the office, are looked
upon as entitled to the same credit
as the mythical tales of Jupiter and
Juno and the other gods and god
desses of the pagan world. These
reflections are induced by the re
markable spectacle which is now pre
sented to the American people of the
heme of the president-elect, Mentor,
becoming a very Mecca of the repub
lican party—only that,unlike tbatMo
hamedan pilgrims, they come not
bearing,but asking a gift. It would
be bad enough if this atato of afl'aii-s
was con fined to one party or to one
class of offices, but it is general, and
is as prevaleot in tbe State as in tbe
United States What
we shall say must be taken as appli
cable to all. A president or governor
is to be chosen, and 16 I certain gen
tlemen announce themselves candi
dates. There is no question of fitness
befsre their eyes; the question with
them is the office and how to get
it.
The people acquiesce in the idea
that no man must have the office who
don’t ask for it,and they may deplore
the unfitness ol the candidates for
the duties of the coveted place, but
only in extreme cases do the people
recognize the right to set all of these
self-seekers aside and select the man
who can best execute the office. Then
in offices to be filled by appointment,,
they, too, are fought, aud on grounds
of personal favor, poverty, etc., until
fitness is well nigh not considered an
element in the selection ol the officer.
The reason behind all this is one
which merits attention, because it
shows that the office is sought in a
spirit which is fatal to the public
good. The reason is that an officer
now wishes the office for the sole
purpose of bis own advantage. The
idea that he takes it lor the good he
can do the public never enters his
head, except as bearing upon his
fame and in future popularity We
do not mean tosay that a man should
not cobsu.£ the effect of- iiis deeds on
his fame and popularity; but, with
the public good ever before him, he
should be prepared to sacrifice him
self for the general weal. Officials
ef the modern school cannot do this
—it is not in the list of possibilities,
and the public does not require it.
The office is a possession of the in
cumbent, and not trust estate for the
good of the public. Unless a change
takes place in- puPtHti sentiment the
offices of the country, as a rule, will
be filled bv men who are presuming
andforward, without the ability to un
derstand or discharge the business
of the office, to the exclusion of
those who, while eminently qualified,
yet are deterred by the knowledge
of the responsibility and hesitate to
come forward and say. “I am the
man for the place.” Let the office
seek the man, and it will find one
adapted to it, and not have to reach
the capacity of the ignorant office
seeker.

We sec from the daily Advertiser,
that it is feared many farmers in
Dougherty will not bo able to run
their farms this year on account ol
their inability to procure farm sup
plies. O, that word ‘supplies.’ It
means mainly bread and moat.
What paradox and travesty it Is on
farming, to hear men, who are mak
ing ii a business, talking about not
being able to run their farms on ac
count of being unable to buy the
very things which they are engaged
in making—or ought to be. It sur
passes the ken of ordinary moitals,
that men who own and cultivate ihe
rich and readily yielding soil of the
South, should forever be harping
about ‘supplies.’ Why, gentlemen,
you ought, by all rules that govern
trade, commerce,and common sense,
raise theso things yourselves. Nev
er will the farmers of this section
loosen the grasp of ttie money lend
er and tho merchant ou their hard
earned earnings, until they become
independent in so far as the great
staples and essentials are concerned.
There are a few things—and a few
things only—which the southern far*
mer is obifged to buy. God has
blessed this section with a product
ive soil, producing, perhaps, as great
a variety of man’s actual—as well as
liis artifical wants—as any portion
of the globe; and yet, strange and
incomprehensible as it mav seem,
year after year, farmers who have at
their very doors everything needful
for the production of their necessary
supplies, will seek tbe merchant and
ask credit- for the very things which
he ought to bo offering for sale him
self. When will the farmer learn
that it is his highest and best interest
to pursue this course S' It does look
like the hard experience of ihe past
would have taught him this useful
lesson long since.
We allude to thissnbject now,from
.the fact that the farmers are just now
pitching their crops for ’Bl. Let them
determine that they will so pitch
it as to make themselves virtually in
dependent. It they will, this year,
make their own supplies, suplement
ed with as large an area of cotton as
can be cultivated besides, they will
be the most independent set of men
in tbe country, Start out to make
your supplies and then add on as
much cotton as you please;but do not
neglect a provision crop; hoping to
make a big haul on cotton this fall.
Nothing could be more suicidal. We
know that farmers have a way of
shrugging the r shoulders and say
ing: What ‘does an editor know
about farming V One moment friend,
we know little or nothing about the
practical working of a farm: but we
do know that the farmer who year af
ter year, buys those things ou a ’"mg
credit and at high rates —and those
who bay generally buy on this basis
—we say that that (arme*- who. habitat-)
ally buys those things which he could,
and ought to make on his farm, will
always have his nose to the grind
stone and some merchant turning it
fast enough to make the sparks fly.
Just feel your nose, and see if it isn't
sore.
WHAT AN OLD 1 ARM Eli SAYS.
This- is the advice of an old man
who has tilled the soil for forty years:
I am an old man, of three score
years, during two scores of < which I
have been a tiller of the soil. l ean
not say that I am now, but I have been
rich. I have all I need, do not owe a
dollar, have given my children a good
education, and when I am called away
will leave them enough to keep the
wolf from the door. My experience
has taught me that—
1. One acre of land well cultivated
produces more than two which receives
only the same amount of labor that
should be usod on one.
Ooe cow, horse, sheep or hog
well fed is more profitable than two
kept on the amount to keep one welt.
3; One acre of clover or grass is
worth more than two of cotton where
no grass or clover is raised.
4; No farmer who buys oats, corn,
wheat, fodder and bay as a rule, for ten
years, can keep the sheriff away from
his door in the end.
&. The farmer who never reads the
papers and sneer at book farming and
improvements, always has a leaky roo’,
poor stock, broken down fences, and
complains of bad “seasons.”
6. The farmer who is above his busi
ness and entrusts it to another to man
age soon has no business to attend to.
7. The farmer whose habitual bever
age is cold water is healthier and wiser
than he who does not refuse to drink.

Owing to my short collections last

the cash system in the future. I would
like to be obliging, but I know from
painfubexperience that the the credit
system will not pay. I will very much
appreciate all patronage,but orders or
prescriptions must be accompanied
bv the cash, otherwise T cannot nor
will not filljthem. JThere is not a
market in the United States that sell
drugs on longer time than thirty

In conclusion, I do need money,

your hearts to come forward and set

Your patronage in future is solic

“Whilom,’’ a correspondent of the
Washington (Wilkes county) Gazette,
writes that paper an amusing account
of an exciting chdse after a man who
was arrested at the instance of a
young giil on a breach of promise to
marry, and who after promising to
make his promise good, wanted to fly
out of his contract. The young man
was held prisoner until court could
convene, when the marriage knot
was to be tied, and he was to have
been released. While in' charge of
an officer a man rode up to where
the officer and prisoner were who
got off his horse, very carelessly
throwing, the bridle down, and began
to talk with the bailiff about a civil
case he had before the court. The
prisoner seeing his opportunity
sprang into the saddle and rode off.
Then there was hot haste, ami the
officer was soon to horse, and now
began the “John Gilpin race; over
the hills and far away.” For three
miles the most exciting race
which ended in the prisoner succeed
ing in finally eluding the officer and
escaping.
