whether or not the Democrats of the
Eighth congressional district take
the same view as did Mr.. Helm. Do
they look at that question as did the

Langley and Powers-or do they look
at it as did Woodrow Wilson. And
if the latter, can they be blamed if

President Roosevelt strongly cham
pions Presidential Primaries as one
of the planks of the platform on
which he recently announced he
would be willing to stand as a can
didate for the presidency.
He is now an avowed candidate fer
the republican nomination but re-
fuses to allow his name to 60 on
the ballot in any state having a
Presidential Primary Law. If he
sincerely favored this system of
nominating candidates he would be
willing to allow his name to be plac.
ed on the ballots in these states and
abide by the result. He ignores
the primaries entirely and hopes to
stampede the delegates to hir- at
the National Convention. This fur
nishes a good example Of his po-

THE PRIMARY CONDEMNED

While tie primary retains some of
its friends there is no other law in
Iowa so generally condemned. It re.
presents the efforts Of no party or
faction to insure greater security in
elections, and does not enlist support
such as to indicate that the privileges
l. pretends to confer are appreciated.
In the presidential primary not one.
fourth the voters of Iowa attended
the polls, clearly indicating that more
than seventy-five per cent, were
either careless or did not believe the
primary results would have binding
effect. w. ... s..
Locally the law is an unjustifiahle
interference with party management.
The method of selecting precinct
delegates to the county convention
lacks the conclusiveness of character
conferred by caucus selection. The
voters of one party were all present
at their caucus at one time and inter-
change of opinions allowed a more
careful selection. That caucuses
were sometimes marked by disorder
is true, but such events were the ex-
ception. The disorder was created
in protest against the very thing that
is now entirely practicable in any
precinct-the packing Of delegations.
In local precincts where from
one hundred to two hundred men for
merly composed the average caucus,
not thirty votes were cast by either
party at the primary. If delegates
were selected at all their names were
hurriedly selected by from two to
perhaps half a dozen men after the
polls opened-the best that could be
done, but result not entitled to re-
spect among politicians.
These delegates so chosen will
compose the county conventions to
make nominations, to settle points in
dispute, to select delegates to the
state conventions and in fact outline
party policies. They know We are
willing to proclaim the truth that
they have no shadow CT moral Or po-
litical right to assume such RESPONSE
bility. Others having failed to at
tend the primaries nothing better
could be done. The county conven-
lions will lack the dignity pertaining
to mass meetings. The delegates
themselves will be in rebellion a.
gainst the law providing fer such
assemblage.
The two leading parties owe it to
their supporters to submit the ques-
ton of continuance Of abolition of the
primary. at their county convention, so
that all candidates for the general
assembly may be instructed by resolu
tions and by action of voters at the
polls. The people have the right
and should not be denied the privil-
eye to decide.
The money wasted reaches an enor-
nous total. Each primary costs Linn
county not less than $4,000, a sum
sufficient to pay the interest on
$62,50O in bonds that might be issued
for any proper purpose. Instead ct
such election follies, Linn county
might have respectable court house
or a considerable milage of good
roads. No delay should be tolerated
in repeating the law.-Cedar Rapids

FARM LANDS INCREASING IN
VALUE

The Department of Agriculture
made public on the 9Th, inst, bull
letin, which shows that farm land
values in the United States, taken
as a whole, have increased 25.7 per
cent in the last four years, and II.
per cent during the past year. There
Is no reason why this increase in
the value Of farm lands, noted by the
Federal Government during the past
four years, should not continue. Pop
mlation and demand for farm pro-
ducts are increasing, but there is no
increase in the acreage of good farm
Hand. New factories are increasing
the supply Of all kinds of manufactur
ed articles, but there is no factory
anywhere increasing the number Of
farms.
