We had the pleasure ia-t we -kef
ing through tin* magnificent mi l euor
motts works no.v being employed to
build the Slate.Uaint il. It is a grand
«!nw to see what man can do when it
cotnes to building a house. It will be
remenbered tliaj, there is one million
of dollars at the bottom of this grand
building that is now being construct¬
ed ; and by tho tune it is finished there
will 1* another $100,000 added to it,
we think. The house has been started
since October 1384, and it will he t wo
years mul over now liefore it will he
completed. It is a curiosity to Hft6
them handle large stone that wul
weight 20,000 pounds-just a car load
—which are brought from Indiana in
the rough and arc sawed up hero on
the grounds like so many pieces <ri' tim¬
ber. This building will bo something
which the state, will he proud .if.
NOT A GOOD DEJECTION.
It is often urged against a candidate
who is seeking re-election to office
lie has had it long enough.
this is the only objection that can
urged. The duties of the position may
have been performed in a way to leave
no room for fault-finding* Tim de¬
meanor to those whose votes gave him
the place may have been
above censure. Every year may
strikingly prove his capacity and faith
fulness. But though it he proved
ho becomes a better officer the
lie holds the office, it is insisted
he should bo turned out simply b
ho has held it for a number of years.
If office were given purely as a
of favor this nation would lie altogcth
er correct. But ofilc.es should not be
given as a matter of personal favor.
The great consideration should he to
procure good service for the publ ic. If
it b» true that one is likely to become
a better servant by serving long, then
turning out up u Idiinv on the ground that
«Iihv tbw liTve hav. aerij 4«v-. n tong enoue-h enou^ii, is is alio- a
iHdgle.ii. tact that one
has discharged the .1 utics of Ins office
faithfully and effhiontly is a very
strong argument in favor of continu¬
ing him therein. The argument be
o,lines stronger with every term that
lie eijhtiiiUHH to act well. Tneru are
aom'! men who will do ils well in olliee
in th#beginning as thev ever do ; hut
the groat maj >rity become more elll -
cient year by year. It is not, in our es¬
timation a valid objection against
one’s re-election llist lm lias held
office for a length of time, and if
