HISTORY OF MERCER COUNTY.
CHAPTER XXVIII.
THIRTY YEARS OF TOWNSHIP OFFICIALS-VALUE OF SUCH A RECORD-CHIARAC- TER OF THE MEN CHOSEN-LIST OF FIRST JUSTICES-TOWNSHIP OFFICERS IN 1804-THE PIONEERS WHO ANNUALLY FILLED THE OFFICES IN EACH TOWN- SHIP FROM 1806 TO 1831 INCLUSIVE.
G REAT interest often attaches to the inquiry, Who were the men that occupied the humbler positions in the early history of the various town- ships of the county? Townships are the lowest units of organization in the general economy of our government. They are to the rural regions what borough corporations are to the aggregations of population. In these gov- ernments of the people, it is possible for every elector to become acquainted with the necessary qualifications of those whom he assists in putting into position. The responsibility of the position he shares, because he has the opportunity of knowing in advance what may be expected of the candidates to be chosen.
As a rule the most competent men are chosen for township offices. An examination of the accompanying lists will indicate that the men chosen were leaders in their respective townships, and frequently chosen to fill both county and State positions. This was strictly in harmony with the maxim, that he who has been faithful over a few shall be appointed to rule over many.
It may be proper to remark that the townships are mentioned in the order in which they existed. For an account of the order of formation refer- ence is made to other chapters of this work bearing upon that question.
