THE PRIMARIES TUESDAY,
AND JUDGE PAUL


tana: the polls open at 1900 o'clock, noon, and close
at TOO o'clock in the evening
The time for voting is brief, behooves the voter
to get out early and do this little duty and have it
over with, as not to forget it.
If the Primaries are to be maintained Ameri-
institution they must be used-Otherwise they are
bound to be abolished in time.
The primaries afford every voter a chance to take
the ticket of the political party he is affiliated with,
and in the privacy of the booth, alone by himself put
his x before the persons whom he wants to be NOM
mated for the several offices his party ticket Iii
this country every citizen of voting age has vote
Whether he be rich poor wise foolish, prominent
unknown, he has vote less. The
choose the candidates and later elect the officers from
those nominated The sort of men elected and the
kind of government secured depends upon the Judgment
and intelligence of the voters
If the voter is too Indifferent to study political ques
tons and too lazy to go to the polls he has kick
coming if things not to suit him. So vote be-
fore you find fault 1t is the plain duty of every
citizen to vote-if he is a good citizen he will not
neglect this duty. Of the primaries party
elections, and you do not happen to belong par
ty who has the privilege of the primary SYSTEM may
be hard for you to the primaries, but then
it may be we'll to do the best with the parties
available
In this district every is interested in the
naOn and election of the Judge of the district court
The office of Judge is very important one and one
to every voter in the district and the county The
contest is the republican ticket. 1t is there that
Judge Paul is running for the republican nomination
So every voter who wants to Judge Paul renomin
ated and reelected must get out and vote the repub
ican ticket in order to see his wishes realized.
The Producers News has the same interest as every
voter in seeing the best possible on the bench in
this district We have to grind favors to ask
of any man on the BENCH but do want a man there
who has ability and the comprehension of the respon
sbility of this very important office, who has an in
cnation to give each and every one square deal at
all times.
The citizens of this district have such man in Judge
Paul. He has. held the office with dignity, and adj
minstered it with ability and fairness and efficiency
for the past four years. aested by the fact that
during this time only thirteen of the numerous
suits he has tried, has been appealed and in eleven
of these he has been sustained unanimously by
the Supreme Court of the State of Montana, in one
sustained partially, there being two defendants and
to sustained and to the other reversed only
because the case was not properly appealed, and in
one reversed.
This is remarkable record, and proves Pauls know
ledge of the law and his careful decisions The very
fewness of the appeals proves the satsfactoryness
the other decisions.
The personnel of the office of Judge is very seldom
changed, and when it is, it is usually for good and
sufficient Most people are satisfied in keep
ing satisfactory Judge in office long as he cares
to hold 1T, and not prone to experiment with men
of unknown character and ability.
Judge Paul has been tried and tested and has "made
good In office. He has judicial temperament and is
pleasant and approachabe. The office has not gone
to his head, thing which happens to many men in the
office.
The Producers News believes that it is well to Lei
well enough alone-and it believes the great majority
of the voters feel the way and that Judge Pau
will be nominated and reelected by huge majority
come Tuesday, July 17th
And tho of
pride enough to cast solid vote for Sheridan coun
ty man who has signally made good in the office
We all want to keep the judges chambers in Plenty
wood and Sheridan county.
Vi course just that thing is going to happen-it
gong TO be unanimous for Judge Pau-he will ge
them all without regard to party or faction
But don't forget to vote next Tuesday, # is reall
very important duty.
