primary law, under which questions
that are wholly non-partisan may ana
often will foist upon 1t nominees
who are in no wise in sympathy win
the principles it represents. Neither
will it favor for any considerable
time a law that make a bare plurality
final in nominations. A politlcal
party has the undoubted right TO re-
quire it's nominees to be the choice OF
at least a majority Of its electors.
Any law which deprives a political
party from making this essential re-
uuirement, will ultimately work a
dissolution of the party. If from any
cause the majority Of a party are pre-
vented from exercising control 1t
ceases thereupon to be representative
In character.
That the primary system herein
favored is not. the ideal may be frank.
ly admitted. That existing conditions
are not ideal, ought TO be conceded
This system lies just midway be-
tween a plurality system and the
present caucus law. 1t approximate
the ideal AZ nearly as present condl
tions will permit. 1t is the evolution
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1906-12-21
THE PRIMARY LAW.

In as much as there appears to be a
settled conviction that q primary
election law Of some kind will be en-
acted by the coming legislature, IN
terest mainly centers upon the ques-
tion: What kind Of a primary law
will 1t be2 The platform demands
the enactment ''of IA comprehensive
and practical primary election law
Two questions are therefore left Tor
legislative determination. Compre-
hension and practicability. If the
law Is made applicable to II nomina-
tion OF all state and county officers,
this would seem to be sufficiently
comprehensive for present needs; SO
that upon this pha2e OF the law II
may be assumed there will be very
little difficulty in securing sufficient
ananimity CT legislative opinion.
The second proposition will doubt
less encounter greater diversity and
persistence OF opinion, as there al
ready exists u considerable number
who favor a law making the persons
receiving u plurality of the votes cast
at the primaries, the party nominees;
while others insist that only those re-
ceiving a majority of all of the votes
so cast should be declared the party's
nominees. That sound arguments
may be made in favor of each PROPOSE
ton may be admitted.
In considering the question how
ever, it will be we'll to keep in mind
that our platform demands the enact
ment OF a practical primary law. This
certainly means a law adapted TO con-
ditions as they new exist, as alaw lack
ing such adaptability would be inn
practicable. AT the present time the
administration Of the affairs OF this
state is maintained and carried into
operative effect by means of party or
%ganizations. 1t is a government by
parties. This condition, it may be
safely assumed, will continue for
many years to come. 1t therefore
follows, that a practical primary law
must be in harmony with, and adapt
ed TO this condition. / am fully con-
WINGED that any primary election Law
must retain the convention feature,
or fail TO win popularity sufficient t.
perpetrate It's existence. / believe
the convention to be an essential L
party organization, and without
which, its maintenance becomes im
possible.
Parties stand. or ought TO stand
for the maintenance and promotion
of certain cardinal principles This
difference OF opinion en- public qnes
tions or policies, produces parties
and constitutes what are termed ths
tissues Of the day
One party is distinguished from an
other. by reasOu az the difference o

caucus law seems to be about as good
as any that could be named.
The election conducted by two
judges and two clerks under the Aus.
tralian ballot system. No election
eering permitted within one hundred
feet Of the polls. Where the voter is
from any cause unable TO read n
mark his ballot, such voter should be
allowed to select the person he de-
sires to assist him. Judges OF cleo
tion are human.
Only candidates receiving a ma
jority OF all ballots cast by his
party to be nominated, all others
to be nominated by delegates
! chosen by ballot at such primary in
proportion to the fixed ratio, in con-
vention assembled thereafter on d day
fixed by law. Poll books to be proper
ly verified and election returns made
to the party central committee, who
should constitute the ~convassing
board. a majority thereof being sutfic-
lent to make such canvass. An alb
stract Of the canvass to be furnished

vention for its use. Proper provis-
ions for a contest whereby the can
wasting board could be compelled to
verify the returns by a recount of the
ballots prior to the day fixed for the
convention. Delegates to vote viva voce
and upon a call of the roll for the
nomination of all candidates. Two
ballots to be taken before any candi-
date can be dropped after which the
one receiving the lowest vote at the
primary to be dropped. No election
eering by delegates permitted after a
candidate has been dropped. Those
whose candidate has been dropped to
cast their votes for the candidate OF
candidates still before the convention
as they deem most in accord with the
choice of their constituents. This
process to be continued until some
candidate receives a majority OF all
votes of the convention. Candidates
should not be permitted in the con.
yention until nominations have been
completed. No person should be per-
mitted to electioneer among the dele.
gates after the convention has as
sembled. Hiring teams for the ostens'
ible purpose of getting the voters tc
the polls should be prohibited by ar
adequate penalty unless the voter is
unable to get to the polls by reason
of actual sickness or other infirmity
let him remain at home if he does
not choose to come. Primary systems
similar to the M outlined above arr
not an untried experiment in the
nomination Of county officers but
: have been in constant use in some o,
: the states by both republicans ant
democrats for the past forty years M
: have been abundantly satisfactory
f If enacted into law in this state
have every confidence to believe thu
law would become in the near future
as popular as the Australian ballo'
: system now is. On the other hand
4 am firmly convinced that under pres
emit conditions a plurality law will b,
unpopular from start % finish. N,

Christmas Joys.

Peace on earth brings Christmas
Joy, and Christmas brings good cheer
and happiness to those who appreci-
ate the blessings Of prosperity and
plenty. Our people have been blessed
with abundant crops and prices are
high and the demand for farm pro-
ducts ever increasing. The great
christmas holiday Is at hand and our
people are amply prepared to enjoy It,
The demand upon the purse is cheer
fully granted because we love to see
the little one enjoy the annual visit
or Santa Claus, and nothing brings SO
much Joy to the home as the delight
ful pleasures Of youthful anticipation
and realization. Santa Claus to the
child Is the I'M event that is never
forgotten. Make Christmas for the
children as happy as you can, FOR
soon, almost too Q o 1t seems, they
pass from childhood to lei and
women to take up the burdens OF life.
Those OF middle life and Older can
look back and see through the sweet
visions Of memory the days when they
too hung their little stockings by the
fire place and awaited the coming of
dear old Santa Claus, and don't you
remember how anxiously you jumped
out Of bed In the morning to see
what that dear little stocking con-
tanned, how pleased you were with
what the dear old fellow brought you.
He wasn't 20 rich then as now, but
skates, candy and a drum did very
we'll, while q new suit, boots and nit
tens helped to make the boys feel
rich. Dolls and micro little
trinkets made the girls happy and
christmas joys ruled the household.
Childhood Is Just the same today as
fffty years ago, and the little ones are
just as anxious to hear from dear old
Santa now as then, and Santa Is
much richer nov than fifty years age
and has an endless variety Of good
things to select from.
The stores are crowded with beaut-
iful presents, high priced and low
and the "old fellows pocket book i
heavier now than It used TO be, hence
we trust his liberaliry will be in keep
ing with his ability to bring genuine
christmas Joy to every home.

ary steps which must be taken before
the ideal is possible. 1t deals with
the electorate as it now is, ana not as
it should be, or under wise legisla-
ton may eventually become. 1t as
sumes that selfishness still exists. ana
TO some extent influences a CONSIDER
able portion of the electorate. IL as
sumes also, that until civilization
shall have so advanced as to make
patriotism and civic righteousness all
potent with tine voter, the necessity
for party organization will continue.
That as long as the necessity for party
organization exists, the limitation
requisite for its preservation must
be imposed.

its platform declarations upon public
questions and policies
While the pledges made In a party
platform are not always fulfilled, and
occasionally a plank Is inserted Tor
the purpose of catching votes, still a
party's platform is, generally speak
ing, the embodiment of It's principles
upon public policies. Whatever the
law enacted II ii is practical, IL must
retain this essential feature. And
while IL Is true that a number OF
states have enacted plurality primary
laws, most OF them are comparatively
recent enactments, have not been
sufficiently tested by time TO estab-
lish their absolute p~racticabiiity, and
In some instances have already prov
ed unsatisfactory.
Election laws like revenue laws can
not be made perfectly satisfactory.
and as no revenue law has yet been
devised, whereby all persons can be
compelled to pay their Just proper
| ton of the taxes, SO no primary law
Is likely to be enacted that will in
all respects prevent dishonorable
methods in politics or make the
party's nominations a perfect reflec-
ton OF the will of it's electors. Such
perfection In a law involves the ideal,
and is attainable only under ideal
conditions.
1t should further be borne in mind
that civic evolution car only proceed,
by graduated steps, each of which
must precede the other or failure be-
comes inevitable. This is as certain
~ true OF all reformative measures as
of any other. If the principles in a
lie conscience reputation is almost
certain to follow, The wisdom Of the
measure will not suffice to save it.
What potency would an emancipa.
tion law have had at the time of the
execution of John Brown? Attention
to existing conditions are esSent,
ial to the success Of all reformative
legislation, as the elimination of the
vice or mischief is desirable.
If party organizations are maintain
ed it must be done by nominating
persons for the various state ant
county offices, who are liz sympathy
with the principles maintained by
their respective parties. There mus,
also be, some body or collection Of in
dividuals authorized to speak for the
party, j. e. formulate its platform Of
principles. 1t must possess the eIe
ments OF cohesion and organization il
order to carry into effect its platform
principles. Its nominees should b.
the choice Of at least a majority o
its adherents. otherwise the organiza
tion is moi representative in charact
er and must ultimately a to exist
Aside from these apparently necessar
limitations, the greatest freedom o
individual choice should be given il
