Are Election Officials DISHONESTY

A contest doomed on the horizon this week as
Henry 0. Raaen, the present incumbent In the office
of county superintendent of schools, questioned the OIL

made by the county commissioners, had been declared
the successful candidate to that office.
MIR. Raaen. in a letter addressed to the board OF
county commissioners, said he had discovered a great
deal of underhanded propaganda" that people were
unable to figure out that returns were true and cor
rect" He cited particularly the Plentywood, Reserve,
DaEmar, and Medicine Lake precincts. and asked that
a recount be made for superintendent In these pre-
cincts.

if the votes have been accurately
counted and tabulated these same
officials are entitled to full vindica-
ton. -
Mr.. Raaen's letter deals only In
generahties. He writes of under
handed propaganda" of a great
many people" being unable to fig
ure out how it all happened, he calls
attention to "rumors" of irregularit
les, and then rather childlessly con
cludes with the ~hackneyed phrase
where there is 70 much smoke,
there Is possibility of some fire."
Not one specific instance OF any
irregularity o. careless counting OF
ballots is cited. Not one persons
name Is mentioned who is respons-
ible either for the reports OF under
handed propaganda or "rumors" of
carelessness. MI. Raaen just con-
eludes there must be some fire"
and he proceeds to build 1t under a
group of election officials who I'M
doubtedly stand ready to defend
their actions or the manner in
which they endeavored to perform
their duties.
PROFESSIONALLY there was plenty
of "u~nderhanded propaganda" going
on before election. But Mr.. Raaen
should find solace in the fact that
all the propaganda by no means was
directed against him. His own OPP
ponent was a victim of his full
share. AS d~espicable as 1t is. there
will always be those low enough to
drag the good name of a mar or his
family through the mire OF political
rot in order to accomplish their pur-
pose. And there are still enough
people who will listen to such filth
to sometimes effect the outcome OF
an election.
