There is probably no other Commodity that the aven ige man is more illing give to his neighbors and more unwilling to receive than advice. The reason for this may be easily seen.

The II ami says Aspirants for State ollices are making their wants known. Would that we had a law foi bidding agitation for public ollice until within six mouths of election day.

That would be time enough for the public to size up the candidate and vice versa. Six months out of two years could not be regarded as an excessive open season for candidates for.State and congressional and county offices.
