D. ". Davis, the Peoples Choice For State Senator.
DAVIS CHOSEN.
Receives Good support From Every
Part of the County.

d. w. Davis is undoubtedly the
winner in the contest for nominatioE
for state senator of Oneida county
against T. D. Jones, of Malad and
J. N. Larsen, of Preston. Mr.
Davis has at this time 793 votes
more than Mr.. Jones and with 10
precincts to hear from, all of which
will not cast over 500 votes and
should Jones get all of these he
could not over come the lead by
Mr.. Davis. Mr.. Larson was not in
He race at any time, Davis carrying
Preston, the home of Mr.. Larson,
by a vote of 500 to 81 for LARSON
The legislative ticket can not
yet be named as the vote is very
close between Hanson, of Rockland,
and Casio, of Weston. Henderson,
OF Clifton, and Johnson, of Preston,
have the nomination by good votes
but the third man will not be known
until all precincts are heard from.
Andrew May, for commissioner,
of this district, is an easy winner
over John Robinson and j. N. Ar
bon, he receiving a majority vote
in nearly every precinct
David Davis, for sheriff, has
d safe lead over T. j. Evans, and
ii is not expected that this lead
can be over come,
Evans and Thomas, for probate
judge, have close race, and the
race between Smith and Ray, for
attorney, is another one
which is close with the odds in fav-
or of Smith.

Big Majority For ID. w. Davis Here

American Falls stood by their
candidate tor senator in fine shape,
giving Mr. Davis Ala votes out of a
total vote of 461. Mr.. Larsen the
Preston candidate, received only 8
and T. D. Jones 10. .
Itain nearly the full day kept a
great many from the polls and the
vote fell about two hundred short
Of the registration. Only a few of
the out Of town voters could get to
the polls and this fact took from
Mr.. Davis many more votes, but he
and the friends of county division
We're well pleased with the large
majority given him.
Hanson, of Rockland, received the
greatest number of votes cast for
any candidate for that office, and
went out of here with 221 votes.
Andrew May, for commissioner
of this district, received 1872 as
against 1873 for John S. Robinson. ss
Sheriff Davis has a nice majority
over T. J. Evans, receiving 257 to
95 for Evans
The II ce for prosecuting attorney
was the closest on the ticket in this
precinct. Ray receiving 147 and
Smith 145.

farmers to market their grain. It
would be easy to point out many
men in the valley who planted
large fields OF wheat expecting a
way to market other than by team,
and who would not have done so
mad the prospects for a road been
so assuring. The men themselves
who signed these contracts, were
as sure and had given out such in
formation. They had everything
In readiness for actual construction
upon reeciept of telegram from
New York that the contract had
been ratified by the board. The
surprise was even greater to them
than to those of us here. They yet
feel confident that the board will
take favorable action. but it will
now be rather late to assist much
IN handling this years crop.
Possibly one hundred kilograms
nave been sent to New York in ad-
dltlonal proof of the conditions as
represented by Mr.. Evans in his
conference with Mr.. Lovett, and if
1t is only proof he wishes htere is
an abundance of it.
Mr.. Evans is a little doubtful as
to the road being built this fall,
but has no doubts for next year.
others, among them the high Of
flclals of the road, yet believe it
possible to arrange the difficulty in
time to construct this fall, as all
things are in readiness and only
a few days would be necessary to
get operations actually started after
the word would be received that
the board had ratified the contract.
Everyone in this section will feel
greatly the disappointment for so
much depended upon this promise
being ulfilled. Many farmers in
the valley must market heir crop
as soon as it is threshed, to meet
obligations made under the impress
sion that all was right with the
road, and there is not enough men
and teams in the valley to haul |
this big harvest to American Falls !
before next March.

In looking over the vast coudtry

see the first crop of hay in the
stack and never before has there
been such an abundance, both due
TO an increased yield per acre on th
older fields and from an Increased

great stacks are up and the secont

season has been good for the grow

American Falls will probably be
the greatest wheat market in the

and the shipments made from here
this year will easily double thos,

A PATRIOTIC DUTY

Next Tuesday a general election
will be held to select the executive.
and legislative officers of the state
and nation. 1t is the duty of every
good citizen to participate in the Sc
lection of these officers The priv
ilege of voting carries with it the
responsibility of exercising that priv
ilege. This is a government by the
people and the nation has a right to
expect and demand that each one of
its citizens will prevent the govern
ing power from falling into the hands
the polls and expressing a prefer
ance as between the candidates and
the policies which they represent In
this state the right of suffrage has
been conferred upon the women.
Many of them may not desire to vote
but it is their duty to do it.
All who go to the polls should be
sure to vote either for or against the
constitutional amendments which
will be printed at the head of the
ballot. In this county they should
also be very careful to express their
choice on the adoption or rejection of
the system of township organiza-
ton. Two years ago the township
organization plan was endorsed by a
vote of six to one, but failed to carry
because so many failed to vote on the
question that it did not receive a ma
iority of all the votes cast at the
election.
Voters should also remember to
express their choice for two county
commissioners, as these officials are
nominated by districts, but elected
by the vote of the whole county.
The following explanations, pre-
pared by a prominent Seattle attor-
ney. may prove helpful to those who
do not clearly understand how to
mark the ballot so as to express their
wishes, but The Herald would sug-
gest that the safest way is to place
cross in the square after the name
of every candidate for whom one de-
sires to vote
IF the voter desires to vote a
straight party ticket, all he has to do
is to place a cross in the circle oc-
curing at the head of the ticket.
This means that his vote shall be
counted for every office within the
column in whose circle he places the
cross. For instance, if he places II
in the circle under the words Repub-
lican Ticket, as above, it will count
in favor of every candidate running
on said ticket
Assuming that voter has placed
his cross in the circle under the head
ing Socialist Ticket" If he goes out
side of the socialist ticket to mark
cross in the square following the
name of any other candidate for rep
resentative in congress and makes no
other mark, his vote will be counted
only for the person after whose name
the cross appears For instance IL
he goes over into the republican col
umn and marks a cross in the square
following the name of j. Il. Frost,
though he can vote for two repre-
