Do Not Experiment

Under the convention system, as it
existed previous to the enactment of
the primary law, it was the practice of
republicans as well as members of other
parties to thresh out their differences
as they would pertain to choice of men
and adherence to principles in the con-
vention. Under that system the deci-
sion OF the convention was by all good
party men looked upon as the decision
OF the people and to the will of the con-
vention as expressed the good party
men would bow. 1t is true that the
convention had some advantages over
the primary in this that the fight there
was not so protracted, and consequently
seldom became so bitter. For this rea-
son, it has often been thought that the
convention system was more conducive
to party harmony than the primary
system, and that was one of the rea-
sons probably why the Reporter and
Farmer has in the past favored the
convention system.
Some years ago, however, the ques-
ton as to whether or not the primary
system was better system for decid-
ing differences of opinion within the
party was submitted to the people of
this state. The matter was thoroughly
discussed, pro and con, and after mature
deliberation the people of this state
decided that the primary system was
preferable. In accordance with this
decision of the people primary law
was enacted, and that is now the law
OF this state. The primary law take
the place in party management of the
caucus and convention. Under this law
the people have the right and an oppor-
tunity to make known their wishes and
their preferences as to men and mea-
sures, and we believe that when the
people have spoken their verdict should
be respected. Being believers in gov
eminent by the people and majority
rule, We cannot but take this position.
To contend otherwise would mean the
disruption and abolition of political par
ties, which, when after all has been
said, it must be conceded to be true
that the government of this country.
while It is government by the people,
is yet a government by the people
through the fundamentally of parties. |
This the wisdom and experience of the
ages. both in this and other countries
under a similar form Of government.
has been found to be the most benefi-
cial.
In our experience we have found that
Reporter and farmer. [volume] (Webster, Day County, Dakota [S.D.]) 188?-1946, 1910-10-27

can prove it by you, Mr.. Laboringman.
When were wages ever so high? Did
yob not get from $3.50 to SO. so per day
all the fall? Every eastern newspaper
you pick up tells of some labor organ
ization which has asked and received
an increase in wages. Our democratic
brothers will tell you that is due to
organization. Yes, but when the labor
organizations Of Cleveland's time
became dissatisfied and asked for an
an increase, they did not get it, but
they did get reductions, and being dis
satisfied they formed Coxey army and
marched to Washington to lay their
grievances before the government and
were told when they got there "to keep
off the grass. Another coincidence the
democrats will say. Now President
Taft was not the same kind of player
as his predecessor. The president made
nothing public until he had it well in
hand and was ready to move. Roose-
Welt on the contrary started something
publicly and took it for granted that
his popularity with the people would
make it winner, and in most cases it
did. The new tariff law had to be
passed. No tariff law could be passed
which would be absolutely satisfactory.
The radicals in the republican party
and the democrats at once took the
president to task for it and blamed him
for all its shortcomings. His admins
tration was criticized until his prede.
cessor went before the people and
explained it. The greatest progressive
in the United States, Theodore Roose-
welt, endorses the the Taft administra-
ton. The president is the leading con-
sentative, so both factions should be
satisfied and go to the polls and vote
for a continuance of the present pros
perity which has been continuous
performance with the country ever
since the Cleveland administration.
The democrats are this year making
an active campaign. They are always
active when there is discord in the
republican party, for they know that it
is through discord that lies their only
hope. In this state they have nomin-
ated full state ticket, but are only
putting up a fight for three nominees
the congressman and governor. Why?
The reason is plain to fellow who has
ever studied politics. Should the peo-
pie so far forget the present prosper
Gus times in this state as to send Soule
and Kelley to Washington, they would
be members of congress for two years
to offer every embarrassment to the
administration measures introduced
with the hopes of making the republi-
can party so unpopular by 1912 as to
secure the election of a democratic
president in that year. If you would
uphold the prosperity of the country
rather than take a chance on untried
democracy the republican congressman
will get your votes. Why do they
desire the governor in preference to all
other state officers? Why don't you
know that the governor is the great
appointive power Of this state? He
would have hundreds of offices to fill
and at the end of two years would have
vast army of democrats backing him
or some other good democrat for the
United States senate. Our democratic
brethren go farther. They enter each
county and are making fight for some
two or three candidates in each and

Mr.. Taylor states that he considers
the fence q splendid investment, since
it easily pays for itself In three years.
He further states that it 10 often difh-
cult and sometimes impossible TO get

this reason the money value OF the
fence can hardly be estimated.
