WHY THEY FIND FAULT.

Those who find fault with the direct primary law
because of the lack of interest heard to
plain OF the old convention system because OF the lack
of interest Under the old SYSTEM it would have aston
lshed the natives had 5000 in the state participated
In the selection OF delegates to county convention to
ticket but when than 10000 voters of the state
vote at primary naming the state candidates direct there
is great howl of ''lack Of interest"
We all remember when it matter for state
comment when as many as 1000 participated in Repub
can primary in Ada county under the old SYSTEM that
result achieved than in the lifetime of
the average voter. Now however, in the recent election
there three times many Republicans participated
In the primary In this county and is called failure!
The average under the old SYSTEM was perhaps or
10 to precinct The average in the recent election
perhaps lOO to the precinct yet assured the old plan
success while the plan is a failure!
We all regret that voters did not participate in
the recent primaries, but it the result is far
representative of the desires of the people than
attained under the old system.
Those who complain of the small vote at the recent pr
mary election should not fail to consider that this very
smaness expression of the voters of the state It
unmistakabe expression of their dispeasure and
lack of confidence in the old parties The truth of the
matter is that the voters have been caoled and kicked
from pillar to post by false promises and meaningless
phrases and senseess administration that they have
grown disguised and they simply lying by awaiting
the time when their blood shall have reached the boiling
point when upheaval will result. Whether it shall

delayed none OF us yet 1t is belief that it
coming and that when the counted next
November there will be shown entire revolution in this
state. But whether it them later, it
will, and the general apathy plainly evident is
opportunity to strike most effectively when the stroke
delivered.

Mr.. Condrey begged for a dance, the

She was a frivolous little person

II is scarcely possible to overestimate
the value of the right kind of laughter
in leavening life.
The ability to see the amusing side
of things takes the sting out OF annoy
ances as nothing else can.
Again, a sense of humor supplies
an unequaled oil for the machinery of
married life. THE worst quarrel we

was broken up by a laugh. You

we're pretty obstinate. Well, once we

made it up"

and the girls managed to find places

Dolls of apples such foolish idea

Tell her she can have them back after
you have played with them, and she

Now wash your apples clean and rub

Fasten the heads into the bodies by

Choose which side of the apple is tc
