A case that would amount to reason
for recall Of judges would almost always
be time Of political excitement.
The people as individuals are less
kudicious than the judiciary. The latter
are selected men, selected for this par
ticular work, because of certain qualifi-
cations. 1t is not to be expected that
all the people have these qualifications.
Let the judgas say what law is but let
the people say what the law ought to be.
1t is the law makers that need the re-
call most.
Some judges 60 wrong. Sure, because
they are human. But in this case the
exception but proves the rule that but
very few of them 60 wrong. Z
But the people sometimes 60 wrong
and we believe in the matter of inter-
preting their own laws they would 90
wrong far more often than the Judges.
But it judges must decide, not what is
law, but what the people want as law.
and be subject in their own persons to
the consequences of wrong guess, the
law as written will be farce. =

who IS, say, republican in April and
June may not vote democratic or split
ticket in November.
All these absurdities arise largely from
one thing, that the people who have
been pushing the primary business have
begun at the top instead of the bottom.
If the state is to recognize parties as q
component part of the government (for
which there is no warrant IN our consti-
tuition, the very frs, procedure should
be to make legal definition of party
and then define Its status to the govern
ment. Then it would also necessarily
have to pass laws confining the right of
suffrage to persons Who have affiliated
with the parties as defined by law and
we think that this would almostcertaln-
ly limit the number of parties to two, as
in England where the broad definition
is, that one of the parties is for the
government and the other against the
government.
But we repeat, it is absurd to ask q
voter to swear that he is q republican or
q democrat, when the state itself can't
tell him which he is, afoer hearing his
principles.
We are undoubtedly have been a
government by party, but after hun
dred years Of experience, now We want
government Of party: and that's q Tar
harder problem.

OFFICIAL VOTE.

The county boards have been canvas
sing during the last week and while the
official count by the state board has not
been made, yet the Grand Forks Times
has gathered the figures from all coun-
ties in the state except the county OF
Mckenzie where the board has been un.
able to meet owing to flood conditions.
Mckenzie county had about 1900 votes
in 1910 which were about equally divi-
ded between the parties. -
According to the Times figures, (Which
on the presidential vote includes Mo-
Kenzie) LaFollette received 34,12l,
Roosevelt 2a,217, Taft 1859, LaFollette's
lead is 9,9O4 s;
The LaFollette electors and delegates
are also elected by about the same msy
jorities, but both. sets Of electors and
delegates fall behind presidential totals
from 500 to 5000 votes. showing that
many voters only marked their ballots
for the presldential candidates. 4,
The democratic vote was insignificant
rs to totals but was made interesting b.
cause they also had q surplus Of candi-
dates for delegates which made the final
result in the case ot four or five Of them
very doubtful until, the whole vote il
counted. As it staads without McKen.

is Willis A. Joy Of Grand Forks with
5008, while Lish is next with 5Ol3, e. W.

WHAT Is A PARTY.

Again we have had Z trial Of the pri-
mary law, with dismal failure as to
fulallment Of its original purposes. The
only intelligent vote cast BY the electors
was that for president and. in many
cases the democrats voted the sepubli-
can ticket in order to carry the state for
LaFollette. In order to vote for elect
oss aud for delegates to the conventions
it was necessary for the voter to take .
previously printed list with him into the
polling booth.
While the Pioneer Express has always
doubted the efficiency even Of the design
Of tho primary Law, to cure political
evils. it seems to be the political tad Of
the present day and il it is to be. it
should be ut least fairly correct il meth
ods.
As this paper has long ago pointed ont
the primary law Is it is at present insti-
tuded fails in its purposes because in
order to make it feasible the whole
method, the whole system Of politics,
must be entirely changed.
AS it stands it is an attempt to change
methods without changing the basis
system. To some extent at least it is an
attempt to graft the English methods on
the American system and is about as
successful as il the attempt hed been
made to graft apples on an oak Or pine.
Just now the assessor viii be around

While such requirement Is q very doubt

arrant nonsense in itself, and the elector
might well retort. .All right but fEst

RECALL OF JUDGES.

We are not in favor OF the recall OF
judges; indeed we would go farther than
that and make the judiciary absolutely
independent of politics.
Now we are willing to grant right at
the beginning that there are some Judges
that should be recalled" and possibly
some of them sent to the penitentiary.
In the consideration of this subject
We are up against the limitations Of
humanity.
The prime duties OF the judiciary are
to interpret. the law as they Cad it. And
what do they dnd? In the states, and
often in the United States, they find .
mass Of statutes made by men who could
see only one side Of subject, and often
have neither the education or ability, to
write Ineligible English.
When the judges work over this mass
OF contradiction, full Of sins Of omission
and commission, and decide that the
law says SO and SO, then the people who
dislike such an Interpretation get up
and roar that the judges should be no.
crlled for such . decision, forgetting
that the judges did not make the law,
do not perhaps like the lsw, but have
only said what they think is law as it is
written.
The remedy proposed for this so-called
miscarriage Of justice, is let the people
decide for themselves, by voting to recall
the judges.
But the Judges are themselves ''peo.
pie" The original lawmakers who are
mostly responsible also are apeople."
Can the stream rise higher than its
sourcef
It seeMs according to this theory that
the whole .'people" can make better
decision Of Intricate points Of law than
the selected people. !"
s Now, it is q fact that in the long run,
after they have thought over subject,
the people generally come to pretty cor
rect conclusions Of what ought to be the
law.
Before the Civil war, Judge Taney
and majority Of the supreme court de-
clared according 70 the constitution that
. runaway slave had to be returned to
his master from q free state and that
the u. 8. officers had the right to call on
any man 70 assist il such return.
Judge Taney was right, but il recall
had been In fashion then, Judge Taney
would have been recalled by the North
ern people. because they would not obey
that law. But the 18th amendment q
the constitution changed the lawa after
four years 81 bloodshed.
Judge Taney Was right in what the
Law said, hnt the people were right il
saying what the Nv ought e be.
But On the othsr band no moro pee.

Some cows are naturally clean:

Some feeds are easily digested. Get
feed suitable to her and the purpose
for which she is worked. Find feed
that is adapted to her. The work of
a dairy COW is to convert that food
into milk. not to lay 1t upon her back
Have share for every COW; a ration
for every COW. She has got to be
kept well. A dairyman should be a
careful student. and watch the COW.
Watch the cattle. Never feed them
more than they eat up clean. Kale
and vetch are splendid things to keep
a COW In good condition. In this
country you don't have the cold
weather like prevails in the eastern
states. and the cows don't require SO
much. We haven't to contend against
cold weather. Corn Is heating. You
don't need corn. Feed more vetch

Quite an Exciting runaway
took place here in town last Fri

Basin was loading coal at Gates
Company's coal house when his
team started and running strad-
die of a hitching rack to which
two more teams and pony were
tied all of which broke loose and
went down the street, one team
falling at the town pump and
the rest ran into a telephone
pole. A few broken spokes and
singletrees was all the damage
that was done.
