people are beginning to doubt it

people are beginning to doubt it
but it is subject to grave abuse.
When hundreds of voters step into
the primary of the opposing par
ty and vote against its strongest
candidate so that their own can
didate will have weaker man
to oppose in the finals, that is
certainly not fair play nor in the
interest of representative govern
ment. When untruths and mislead-
ing statements are vigorously cir
culated against a candidate par
ticularly at the last moment, that
is certainly rotten politics, no mat
ter who does it. >.
These were the reasons why the
sticker candidacy was provided
for, and there can be no fair OBJ
lection to it's use.
If voters feel that the facts as
presented show that they were
mislead in the primary. they have
perfect right to change then
votes, for they are certainly en-.
titled to any representative they
want. If they feel on election day
that their first choice was right
they will stick to that choice anc
nobody will be hurt.
Mr.. Moulton's friends feel thai
the late primary did not reflect
the free choice Of the majority Of
republican voters in Benton coun-
ty and know no valid reason why
he should be bound by it. They
feel that when the record of the
work he has done and is capable
of doing for our county, is placed
before the voters in a fair. square
and honorable manner, a large
majority will conclude that he is
the best representative we coulc
possibly have, and will say SC
with their votes. They have a per-
feet right to do so if they so de.
sire.

To The Editor:

IL i uC cultOl
I understand some people are
cbjecting to Mr.. Moulton's stick
er campaign for representative on
the grounds that it is poor sports
manship. They say "He was beat
en- in the primary, now he ought
to stay out"
IL it were some sort Of game
he was playing, that would be a
fair objection. 1t isn't. Choosing
a man to represent us in the leg
islature at Olympia is a serious
business. The way we go about
it. by party primaries for NOM
nations and general election to
choose between the nominees lis
a set of rules intended to secure
a fair choice and to select the
man who is satisfactory to tue
largest number of the voters.
These rules do not always work
perfectly, so we change them from
time to time-there is nothing
sacred about them. Our present
direct primary may be better than
the old convention system-many

LETTERS OF THE PEOPLE

Dear Editor.

Dear Editor:
In your last issue Of the Courier
Reporter there appeared letter
of adverse criticism on this years
management of the Kennewick
fair. This writer who apparently
was ashamed to sign his name,
seems to have unloaded his bur-
dened mind on the spur of the
moment without giving any SER
ious thought to the matter, and
it is to be hoped will in saner ret
respective moments awaken to the
narrow mindedness of his criti-
cism. It is really absurd to assume
that he voices the sentiments OF
the Farmer class. as the growers
of our little community are far
too intelligent to wish to share IN
the viewpoint, at least on the fair
management.
He seems to give the impression
that he was one of the fair board
in that he states that all the meet
ings of this body were of spirit
of commercialism,. Everything
was commercialized." If he were
member of this body did he not
have equal opportunity to offer
his suggestions, or to criticise, II
he so wished?
Our farmer writer seems to be
a little sour on the carnival fea-
ture, possibly through his encoun-
ter with the various games OF
chance, or mayhap the bright
lights and the noise of the mid
way were a little too much for
his gentle modesty. At any rate
he deplores the loss of the thous-
ands of dollars which the carnival
company took ca out of the COM
munity. Let's see, the carnival
consisted of troupe of 60 people,
arriving here Sunday of the fair
week. Will our friend writer now
kindly figure for us the hotel, and
the eating house expense of this
troupe for the solid week spent
in Kennewick? Also if he had been
observant he would have noticed
that the same troupe during their
stay very literally patronized our
local stores. Owing to the chilly
evenings during the fair their at
fractions in turn were not very
well patronized by the public, and
as a consequence barely met their
expenses after deducting percen-
tages paid to the fair association.
He suggests a fair with local
entertainments and games and
games and sports of a clean ma
ture. A very good suggestion, but,
could it be carried out except
in thought? To judge by the sup
port accorded this years fair COM
mittee by the growers in general
of the community having in their
midst any amount of fruits and
product which would reflect much
credit on themselves if only dis
played, and leaving out the car
nival feature, as well as the COM
mercial booths which our writer
has objected to, it is not difficult
to form a very good idea of how
it usually would pan out-we sure
ly would not need any special fair
grounds then to make room for
the event.
This years fair in spite of the
many handicaps thru lack of pro-
per support did create a material
surplus available for future fairs
if they are to be continued, and
the management who so generous
ly donated a lot of time and hard
work without a penny's worth of
remuneration, deserve commenda-
tion rather than adverse criticism.
