GIVE VS THE BEST MEN.
The people of 'Bradford are now
making p,repaiations to select men
for whom they can. in Novem
ber. The bustafgg✓ is rather impor
tant - The Republica* majority in
this county isi large,' but is not large
enough to warrant ras*experiments.
A strong public sentiment in favor
of putting forward the best men is a
marked- feature of these times.. About
one of the worst things that can
happen_ to a party is that fatal sense
of ,lecurity manifest 4here its leaders
hare a habit of saying—" a nomina
tion is equivalent to an election."
Tlik ought never to be true any
-where, and the day is net-far off wlieit
it will not be true anywhere. It is true
in but very few, localities even now,
as the_ inroads upon party control
abundantly testify; It is. never wise'
to he too certain of: anything where
there are, many peoille to be consult-.
ed, but in politictjferc is an element
of uncertainty exceeding that in any
other business of life. •
Political wisdom .is not abundant
ny where. To be wise in politics is
to put one's own ambitions out.of
calculation and to consider the out
look as if the fortunes of the observer
were not to be affected at ail. Men
ocenpying such a stand-point can
fairy gauge the average sentiment
of a peopre and be prepared to sym- -
pathize and act with them. And
unless _leaders live very closely to
the people, and enter into their NV isheii
and aspirations, they are certain,
soon or late, to_find themselves drawn
up in .some sort of• opposktion to the
forces upon which . the -politi6aLfor
tunes of every aspirant to place de
pend. The disposition manifested.
to resist the "fixing up thing " is
the unknown_quantity in our polities.:
This. disposition does not manifest
itself. first in national matters. It
begins in - townships, spreads-to large]
towns and cities,. and at last : sweeps'
over the country carrying everything
before it. That is the way the - great
uprising of the A mericanpeople took
place nearly thirty years ago. For
years it was seen only ialocal matters.
First one election distriet,_ then
another, and another, cast Off the
yoke of the old regime: Then fol
lowed counties, and great cities, and
States. And in 1 the,entire north
was Wrested from the hands of lead
ers Who had " fixed up thing§",pretty
mach' as_ they pleased - for thirty
years. =
• The Republicans of Bradford can,
If they will, study the history of the
great uprising of the people in 1.54,
and later, with profit. They have a
large majority of the Voters with
them in sentiment. and. t!s we believe.
in purpose. But there was never yet
a political majority big enough to
carry double in the matter of fools. ,
A few fools are quite necessary to
form a background for wise men. In
fact, fools are not to be- despised,
because all our iiidgments are made
Up relatively,,in'politikk as in every
thing else. No man is wholly wise.
A man is wise only as compared with
some other man who is more or less
unwise beyond
_the average. Now
the exhortation is not to kill all the
foolish people, but to keep them iti
tlleir places by marching them to- '
ward therear- - a - tX the wiser people
toward - Ile:Gut. That is the way
partyi - tts:keep - a - growing. Keep the
unwise in the background or let them
struggle out of the line: if that suits
them better. They can be spared
from the, lead. - • -
The "Republicans of this .county
have to select eight
to
and
deserving persons to bp voted for
next November to fill all the import
,
ant county offices. A great deal de
pends upon some of- these officers.
They are to enforce' the mandates of
the courts, record -their proceedings,
collect and disburie the tax levy and
render a strict account to the people
of their stewardship. As this is a
Republican. county its officials should
be Republicans to the extent permit
ted by law. .And in order that the
party may grow and - prevail these
officers should be of the very best
class of Republicans., Bradford coun
ty has almost invariably elected good
men for local positions since the
Republicans have controlled it. This
year it.should do better than ever if
that be possible. We have faith that
the party means to maintain its good
name in this respect; and that is the
desire of all good Republicans.
WE aglie with one of our exchanges
that '.the question of uniformity in the
matter of marriage and divorce' in .this
country is one demanding early and earn
est attention. In some of the States the
divorce mill has - beenme an institution
and is doing its work with • amazing ra
pidity. As a result of this the sanctity
of the marriage relation is scoffed at in
many places, and society is gangrened by
a lax and loNy grade of morals. Dr.
WOOLSEY, ex-President of Yale College,
and aclose student of social science,::4s
serfs that the number of divorces in the
United States isinuch greater in proportion
to the number - of marriages than in'other
Countries. In England and Wales, with
a pOpulation of 24,000,000, there were 800
divorces granted in 1878, while in Massa
chusetts, with a population of but 1,738,-
000, there were as Many, as 6 divorces
'granted The same year. ; In C, necticut,_
478 divorcesl•4ere granted in‘.lB7B. 4n
Ireland dixorces are almost unknown; and
... , .
Spain and Italy do not grant. divorces.
Belgium - has a provision for divorce in
certain cases and Switzerland the law
makes distinctions as to different religious
faiths; The need for uniformity in this;
matter is apparent and doubtleL3 Con
gress will be called upon at an early day,
to give the., subject attention. -'

the Czar's, he has no friends ; does not

party in th 4 State is splendid, a • fact
which showk how intensely the peOple
feel on the issued of, the pending canvass.
