WATER ON DEMON
STRAT|ON FARMS
Dietrich Farm will be Watered
Saturday, Big Help for Farm
ers from Eastern States

Water was turned onto the Richfeld
experimental farm last Saturday in the
presence of some 90 people, mostly
farmers, and next Saturday is the day
set for turning the vitalizing current
onto the Dietrich experimental farm
located just south of the rail road
tracks. The occasion should be
witnessed by all the farmers who can
possibly attend. 1t will be lesson in
irrigation methods to many who are
not familiar with any kind of farming
except in natural rainfall countries
OF course John U. Mcpherson, the
agricultural expert Of the Idaho Irri-
cation company, viii be there as well as
the other officials of the company who
can attend. These experimental farms
are Of great value not only to the
farmers but also to the entire com
munity. Tney show what can be done.
The various tracts of the Idaho Irri-
cation Company are well provided
with practical demonstration farms.
On the Dietrich tract is the expert
mental farm mentioned above The
Richfeld tract has a similar expert
mental farm for the benefit of those on
that tract. On the South Gooding
tract is the magnificent State and
Government station where experiments
are being carried on on a big scale. To
fill in the gap on the North Shoshone
and North Gooding tracts, Mr.. Nc
Pherson has made arrangements with
H. T. Carter on the North Shoshone

ing tracts to lay off ten acres on each
place which viii be cultivated and ir-
rigated under the direction of Mr.. Nc
Pherson and will be used for meeting
place for the farmers on the respec-
tive tracts.
The Idaho Irrigation Company is doing
all within reason to make it plain
sailing for the settlers who come to an
irrigated country the first time and be-
gin farming under the new conditions.

MORE ABOUT THE IDAHO
DIRECT PRIMARY LAW

The direct primary law viii no doubt
be the subject of considerable discus
sion during the next few morths.
Especially will it be subject for ex-
ploitation in the public prints, as a
matter of general information if for
no other reason. At the present time
there seems to be only one question in
sight that bears promise of complica-
tions, and that is with respect to the
first and second choice voting.
The law contains a form of ballot
bearing instructions to the voter
which say it part: Vote for both
first and second choice if there are
more than twice as many candidates
as there are positions " mother words.
if there are more than two candidates
for any Office, then the voter is in
structed to "vote for first and second
choice.
The question arises. If a voter should
vote only for his first choice. would
ballot be rejected?
The instruction to vote for both first
and second choice was apparently in
corporated in order to harmonize with
another section of the law. which
reads:
Section 81. The person receiving
majority of the first choice votes at
primary as the candidate of a party
for an Office shall be the candidate OF
that party for such Office. and his name
as such candidate shall be placed on
the official ballot at the following
election; provided, that if no candidate
shall receive a majority of the first
choice votes, then in that event a can
vass shall be made of the seclnd
choice votes received by the candidates
FOR said office. and said second choice
votes shall be added to the first choice
votes received by each candidate for
such office, and the candidate receiv-
ing the highest number of first and
second choice votes shall be the nomi-
nee for such office of the party nomi-
mating him.
Under this section the following sit
uation might be presented on the basis
of -, 600 votes cast:

sHosHoNE, LINCOLN COUNTY. IDAHO. FRIDAY MAY I3 1910

John Doe l1.OO5 4,5O0
Richard Roe 1856 1000
William Coe 800 10, 500
In such a case Doe receives ma
jority of all the first choice votes cast.
But let it be presumed that five of
those voting for him failed to indicate
a second choice. and their votes were
thrown out. We would have this:
lst Choice End Choice
Candidates. Counted, as Counted.
John Doe 1000 1850
Richard Roe 1886 1000
William Coe 800 10, 495
The throwing out of the five votes
would deprive Doe of the majority of
all the votes cast, l,00l being re-
quired, and would result in a second
choice canvas. This would result as
follows:
Candidate Vote.
John Doe Is, 500
Richard Roe u, 895
William Coe Is, ,595
Under the law Coe would become
the candidate, although he was the
real, or first choice. of only 5lO0 out of
2, 900 people voting. Doe received
II. COS first choice votes, but ia led of
majority of all by virtue of five
votes being thrown out because indi-
eating no second choice Being the
strongest first choice. he would nat
urally be the weakest second choice,
whereas the weakest first choice man
might be the strongest second choice:
and in the second choice canvass the
law nominates the man receiving the
highest number of first and second
choice votes" By throwing out those
five votes. unmistakably expressing a
preference for Doe for the position, the
real choice of the party is defeated.
The situation gives cause for all the
more concern in the light Of the pos
sibility of hundreds OF first choice
votes being thrown out.
If it should be held that ballots not
Indicating both a first and second
choice should not be counted, it might
become impossible for any man to Sc
cure a majority of all the first choice
votes.
Unfair as that would be, the courts
would likely not consider the question
from the candidate point of view
They would be more apt to look to the
protection of the voter.
In all such cases the intent of the
voter has been the guiding factor. If
a voter marked his ballot for John Doe
and failed to indicate a recond choice,
surely his vote on that particular Office
should not be lost to MIN.
There is no interest here of attacking
the first and second choice principle
Every voter should be given the privi-
lege of indicating a second choice
after he has expressed his preference
for the nomination; but he should not
be compelled to vote for a second
choice, and if he shall fall to DO so he
should not be deprived of his vote for
the man of his choice. Such condi-
ton, it seems, would vitiate the funda-
mental doctrine OF the direct primary.
which is to furnish an untrammeled
opportunity to the people to nominate
their choice.
In any event. it seems the question
should be decided in advance, if pos
sible, to the end that the voter under
stand exactly where he is at. If fail
ure to indicate a second choice is TO
deprive him OF his vote and. possibly, /
defeat the real choice Of the party, /
advance information would so empha-
size that fact on his mind as to min
inize the chances of such an outcome. +
