THE FIGHT ON BARKER

The Idaho Falls Register says that
the friends of George r. Barker,
secretary of state and candidate for
reelection, feel that fight being made
on him within the ranks OF his own
party is unjust and is being made
for personal political reasons, and
with the desire on the part OF those
interested to get even" There is
no question but that personal enmity
engendered by events of the past are
in a large measure behind such OPP
position as Mr.. Barker has. Careful
attention to the press leads the Elk
aminer to believe that the opposition,
while persistent in spots, is not very
widespread In discussing Mr.. Bar
ker as an officer the Register con-
tfnues:
mr.. Barker as a state official, in
his executive capacity has rendered
q service to the state that is worth
recognition. 1t was on his motion
that the interest on the state farm
loans in Idaho was reduced from
seven to six per cent. The matter of
the north and south highway in
Idaho--a highway which when con-
structed will bring into closer touch
and better understanding the far re-
moved sections of the state from
each other-is to be credited In a
very large measure to his efforts. as
he took the initiative In having the
state conviets work on that road,
serving a double purpose, building
the road and giving the state prison
ers an opportunity to work in the
open. These things of benefit have
been done and brought about through
his efforts, while the good results
to be derived have been talked about
by others who should have been
equally interested.
THE business of the Office of sec
rotary of state has been greatly in
creased during his administration
and the extra work has been accom-
pIished without any additional office
expense. The automobile license law
OF the state alone is many times
what it was few years ago, and
enough to keep one office busy.
There is no criticism of the adj
ministFation of the Office of the sec
rotary of state except on the part OF
those ambitious to succeed Mr.. Bar
ker, or by those whom he has found
it necessary In the conduct of his
business to oppose.
MFR. Barker as a state official has
made q good record and he and his
friends feel that in all fairness he
is entitled TO denomination and cleo
tion.'

When the voters of Bear Lake
county go to the polls next Tuesday
to express their choice of candidates
for the various offices, they should
not overlook the office of justice of
the supreme court. The three candi-
dates for this office appear on both
the republican and democratic bal
lots. and the names appear at the
top of the ballot, to right of the
column containing the names of can
didates for county Offices. Every one
should vote for two candidates for
supreme Judge. The names Of the
two receiving the highest number or
votes at the primary election viii be
placed on the official ballot at the
November election. at which election
the one receiving the highest number
OF votes will serve as Justice of the
supreme court for the ensuing six
years.
Two years ago less than 40 per
cent of the voters expressed a choice
for supreme court Justice. This was
largely due to the fact that the
names we're placed apart from the
regular tickets on the ballots. The
law requires that the names of the
judges be placed as they are on
our ballots. and the fact that so few
voted for supreme Judge two years
ago showed a deplorable lack of i'm
terest upon the part of the voters.
The Office of supreme court justice
Is too important to be passed BY so
lightly by the people, and the Exam
liner urges every voter In Bear Lake
county who exercises the right OF
suffrage next Tuesday to vote for
the nomination Of two supreme court
judges, and be sure that one of the
crosses Is placed after the name

AS stated last week, the Examiner
feels that the northern part OF the
state is entitled to one congressman
and we believe it is the duty of the
republicans of Bear Lake county to
support one Of the two northern can
didates at the primary election next
Tuesday. The denomination of Adj
dtson T. Smith ID conceded on all
sides. We have not q word to say
against Congressman McCracken, ex-
cept that he resides in Boise, and
should he be re-nominated the south
will have both congressman as well
as both senators! The two from the
north who are seeking the nomina-
tion on the republican ticket are e.
r. Elliott and Burton L. French, and
the latter is the Examiners choice.
There is no word of criticism against
those who feel that Congressman
McCracken is entitled to a second
term, but to those who feel, as we
do, that one congressman should
come from the north, we ask them
to give their support to Burton T.
French.
