OFFICIAL COUNT.

The following is the official count OF
the canvasing board on the recent pri-
mary election. 1t shows that the Non.
partisan ticket ran two hundred votes
behind the Loyal Republican ticket, a
marvellous falling off from two years ago
when it is considered that large per
centage of the Democrats in this county
registered as Republicand and voted
that ticket. The following is the official
figures: !.

thsy were Republicans or Democrats
Ibpt as no such parties now exist in this
state, and as they are not even eligible
5to be Nonpartisans, they spend their
time wondering where they are at.
Always the local county candidate has
rather crooked political path to follow
il he is to win, but now there is no
path and they just 90 il blind and trust
TO luck. But most Of them would pre-
fer!sto work with q real party rather
than to depend on the votes that must
gbe obtained for success from three
several No, parties. In times gone by,
the bulk Of the political fighting was
done by the local party organization,
kept alive by these local candidates,
whose mouths are now SO closely closed,
because they have no party issues to
talk for or about.

AT the last primary election every body
voted in the oldfashioned way, by hav.
ing . printed party ticket Of his own,
from which he marked his legal ballot
while in the booth. It would have
saved considerable trouble to him, as
well as in the final canvas if these
voters had just handed their private
ticket to the judges and had them place
II in the ballot-box. The Pioneer Ex.
press from the very beginning called at
tention to this possibility, in it's opposi-
ton to the primary law, and now it is a
regular custom. There is nothing wrong
about it in itself; in fact it is necessary
for intelligent voting, for but very few
people can remember the names of the
strangers for whom they wish to vote
because of partisan views. But all we
now have left of the primary law is the
Australian ballot which is equally
clumsy and farcical. And even on it
anybody can vote for anybody for any
Office without reference to names printed
thereon. So what is the use of the
whole system? But it will be long
time before any legislator will dare to
introduce bill to abolish the system,
though nobody has good word to say
for it-now. It was invented and pro-
claimed lair as the cure-all for political
diseases, particularly for boss. ridden
parties, and in North Dakota has re-
suited in placing a one-man party in
control. Therefore 1t will not be released
at this session Of the legislature.

were retailed at the same price. 4
In later years the invention ,of the

All the above history leads up to the
real acme OF this discussion; to wit, why
knit now? Oh. yes, we know that there
is war ON hand. and we know that
soldiers must wear socks and sweaters
and helmets and bands, ETC., but that
does not answer the question, why knit?
or rather why Is hand knitting needed

AS we, "a mere maj, !" see it we think
that the factory article either is or NAV
be, made superior TO tbe homemade
product. The quality Of the goods de-
ponds almost entirely on the quality Of

INTERESTING TALK
ON SOUTHWESTERN INDIANS.

our Egypt-land of Indians was
the subject of NeWman's travel talk
at the oliver Friday showing inter
esting glimpses of the habitat OF the
southwestern Indians.
Newman in 1917 went far off the
beaten track and saw the Indian as
only his brother sees him Travel
ing for two weeks on horseback,
Newman reached Rainbow bridge
one of the worlds greatest natural
wonders In splendid group Of
up-to-date motion pictures and rare
color views, he depicted experiences
with the Taos. Navajos. Hopis. Zunis
and Blackfeet tribe is both thrill
ing and cOlOrfUl. Few white men
have known the privilege of being
created warriors of this picturesque
tribe which has placed upon New
man the responsibility of convey
ing their European war sentiments
10 the white man. In a series Of
exclusive close range motion pic
lures he showed the home of the
cliff jewellers, ceremonial cave of
the Delight makers, primitive life
among educated Indians, trades and
occupation Of the Zunis. survivors
of many wars, an Indian camp in
the Canyon de Chiefly, Navajo
blanket weavers. life among the
Hops, pottery making, customs Of
the Blackfeet and many scenes that
the average tourist never finds.
Newman obtained correct tradition
through the confidence of Indians
of high degree. usually a difficult
task, and his descriptions of man
ners and customs Of creed and rites
were from actual observation. The
glimpses of pueblo life in this fas-
chatting traveltalk showed what
America was like before Columbus
