The Farmer Vote

Last Monday the day before the Iowa Repub-
lcan primary for the nomination of candidate for
the United states senate and four members OF the
house of representatives, it predicted in the
dispatches that there would be light vote cast
because the farmers, taking advantage of the good
weather following inclement season, would prob
ably not take time to go to the polls. But the man
who made that prediction evidently thinking of
the apathetic farmer of the past who failed to
express his choice primary at the polls, but
conented himself with manifestng his citizenship by
the exercise Of his constitutional right to cuss OUT
the officers after they had been elected
The prediction failed. The vote at the Iowa
Republican primary extremely heavy one. In
all precincts except 24e there were cast nearly 2so-
600 votes leaving 35 900 (estimated) yet to be re-
turned making grand total Of S25,ooo Never be-
fore except once were nearly that many votes cast
for the Republican ticket in Iowa at general elec-
ton That exception was in 1920 when Hardings
majority was $4,000 But that year in Iowa as IN
every other state, Democrats in large numbers con-
tributed to the swelling of Republican majorities
Probably not less than $4,000 in Arizona voted Tor
Harding and Campbell.
In 1915 the Iowa Republican vote for Hughes
was 2So00o which we may believe was somewhat
below the normal since Wilson received 22looo
But the true Republican vote that year could not
have been as large as the vote cast Republican
primary on Iuesuay.
The fact is the farmer has been awakened. He
has taken an in elections which he manifests
in spite of the weather The has lost It's
remoteness to him. He understands now that the
government is an instrument for his well as
for that of capital labor which for have been
engaged in fight for the exclusive possession of it.
And the farmer has come to a realization OF his
power which is far greater than the influence OF
capital and the numbers of organized labor combined
The farmer can carry the country whenever he de-
cides to do the past he has done so, though
spasmodcally only when some wrong particularly
stirred him.
Heneeforward we think his action will not be
spas1nodic but steady and that his voice will be
heard at every election in the land The farmer now
has a definite program and it differs from other
programs that it not impinge the rights
of any other class The rights of the farmer do not
conflict with the proper rights of capital labor,
with those of the railroads other industry, but
only with demands Of capital labor and industry
for special privileges
The farmer vote which has frequently set things
right after they had gone wrong, believe will
be employed to keep them right to act stabilizer
rather than a rectifier
An earlier recent instance of the awakening of
the farmer appeared in the surprisingly heavy vote
in the Indiana Republican primary and little later
in the Pennsylvania primary.

Is This the Way.

Under the commission form of government, from
the very inception of it in Phoenix have failed
to grasp the spirit of it and have therefore never
received full measure Of benefit from it. We have
kept party politics out of the government but we
have let in something believe to be worse-group
politics, and the groups without the response
bility which used to attach to the old parties.
The present commission is worse in this re-
spect than any of its predecessors and it is
better We doubt whether any commission will ever
be any better unless there is general change in
the attitude of the public toward the conduct of
the city.
Two things sought by those who favor the
commission form of government-one is higher
moral tone resulting from the enforcement Of city
affairs from politics, and the other is greater
efficiency by the application of private business
methods to public affairs
We suppose that nowhere has the commission
form come up to expectations because expectation
took into account the human element with all
its weaknesses. Most of the machinery that goes
wrong does SO because of the faults of its human
attendant. The attendant either neglects it or
unwarrantably interferes with its operation.
1t by such interference by the first city
commission that experiment began to go wrong
When the commission sought and obtained an
amendment to the charter so that it could remove
city manager without cause" it changed the gov
ernment from a business institution to political
not party but something worse than a party ma
chine, and a machine it has since been con-
Quoted, of whose best recognized functions has
been the issuing of rewards for group support.
The latest instance have witnessed of the
exercise of that function the of George
kirkland an efficient employe of the city for nine
years, to make room for successor Against the
latter have nothing to say. We only point to
the fact that the removed officer had been efficient
nd he M for his al
had taken pains to testify to his efficiency and
character.
Is this the efficiency is rewarded in a pr-
vate business? Is this the way to promote efficen
cy? Is not the of Mr. Kirkland that
however useful he may be a public servant, the
uhirisig of time bringing another group into con-
troll. he too WI. have to go?

The Messrs. PIiable

A strong effort is being made and there is being
enlisted in it the support of men who have peei
the most followers of former Governor Hunt
to induce him abandon his contest for the Demo
cratic gubernatorial nomination They have toid
him that a persistence in his program VIII mean
the defeat of the party next fall.
We think it strange that those men who nave
been so close to the former governor should mis-
understand him and his motive They must be
that entered the primary campaign with the
greatest reluctance He did not want to be governor
He did not expect his return to be drawn into
politics again. The governorshp could add nothing
to the public honors that had been heaped upon him
1t could mean only pecunary loss and vexaton OF
spirit.
Mr. Hunt found his return considerable
element of his party committed to revolutionary
changes of the constitution aiming at encroachments
upon popular rule for which he had stood Either
he must permit this encroachment to make headway
or else he must head the fight against It, We sup
pose the former governor counted, in this crusade
upon the support of the who joining
with the conservative element to persuade him to
abandon his campaign, for they had stood with him
in the constitutional convention in the battle for
popular government, which they ready to
sacrifice for party If they had only given
up the battle in the convention twelve years ago
these last dozen years would have been harmonious
period
We do not think Mr.. Hunt will yield. His worst
enemies have never accused him of being quitter.
II he had cause which might to him
even less holy could hardly suppose that he would
lie down.
We have not agreed with Mr.. Hunt in many
things. We do not agree with him in his present
fight preserve the integrity of the constitution
for we believe it should be changed. But do not
believe that his purpose declared at Tucson and

Braley Dolly Poem
INDISPENSABLE
BY BERToN BRALEY

The world is crowded with clever chaps
who. given some work to do-perhaps
Will finish the job in season:
But who will probably stall and shirk
Postpone, procrastinate, dodge the work
For any old sort of reason
But the Other kind-they precious few
Are the fellows who hop right to it,
The men who do what they say they'll do
At the time that they say they'll do it!
oh, the time we waste and the nerves we fray
With the folks who promise job today
And bring it in three days later!
There's nobody causes much of pain
AS the chap whose promise is wholly vain,
The chronic procrastinator!
How welcome then is the toiler who.
Having started task, gets through it.
The man who does what he says he'll do
At the time that he says he'll do it!
He may be plodding, he may be slow
But when he gets the job you know
He'll finish it--on the minute;
And because he's true to his word and task,
He'll get whatever he cares to ask
OF the world and the wealth that's in it.
Success will follow his efforts through,
He never will have to WOO it,
This man who does what he says he'll do
At the time that he says he'll do 1t

Farming

More wonderful and inspiring even than that of
the man well past sixty who took up farming
Glendale and made of it, is the story of
the printed yesterday by The Republican.
At the age of 70 she is the owner Of 4oacre ranch
from which she receives a sufficient income With
out experience she began practically without money
on an unmproved tract. She made her living year
by year, her property constantly growing in value
Some experience is advantageous in farming,
but industry and judgment are far more essential.
Within these seventeen years several farmers who
had good start at the time this woman began
her experiment, have gone to the wall Speculation
drove of them upon the rocks. There is of
some inevitable speculation in farming,
as there is in every adventure in life; there
chances to be taken, but adverse chances fewer
in the Salt River Valley and in any irrigated
try than in a country dependent upon rainfall. A
crop failure in this valley may almost invariably be
charged to the farmer and not to circumstances
beyond his control.
Markets used to be uncertain and even
they are not perfectly stable and reliable but the
farmer through the farm bureau and cooperation
is obtaining and more control of his products
so that adverse chances there lessened
We have lately learned lesson which will Diff
fuse prosperity more evenly throughout the valley
and that is that when farmer has put his money
the 'high card often than not it does not
Farming is vocation and not game. 1t is
something that must be worked and not played at.
And then, too, farming be carried success
fully only the farm and not in the offices and
street of towns.
The experiences of these two successful farmers
should be encouraging to all farmers, those who
now farming and those who contemplate farming.
The old and this old woman have exhausted
all the possibilities of success in this valley. They
did not pass away seventeen years ago. There
even better chances than there were then.
