To Make Your Laws

Next Tuesday voters throughout the state will select
men and women to go to Helena next January and work
over the laws already on our statute books or add new
ones to the conglomerate mass we already have.
Whom will you send from Sheridan county?
Naturally, it seems that the standard by which the
usefulness Of any legislative member from Sheridan
county should be measured would be his ability to serve
the farming interests.
Sheridan county is fortunate this year in having as
candidates for the state legislature two men who are not
only practical farmers, but men who by their own ex-
perience and long years of farm operation in this county,
have fully demonstrated their ability to cope with farm
problems, and through their community efforts and ex-
perience in public life have also shown they had a COM
plete understanding of the needs and problems of the
people of this section.
These men are F. C Peterson and R. c. Tyler, can
didates for state representatives on the Democratic
ticket.
Mr.. Peterson has already had one term in the legis-
lature where he proved his true worth as a represent
alive OF the common people. Honest, fearless, efficient, in
his own private life on a farm in the Westby country, he
carried those same qualities into the legislature, and
there it was soon learned that P. c. Peterson was one
man who could not be bought. He can proudly point to
a record throughout the sixty days he remained in Hell
ena untarnished the slightest faint of disloyalty or UNI
fahhfulness to the people who elected him. He always
worked for what he thought was right. He always voted
for every constructive, progressive measure which he
thought would be to the interests of the common peo-
pie. Then, when he was called upon to register his vote
ON measures which he thought were not for the good of
the common people, he had the courage to vote Nor
Some of the measures which made Petersen's term
in the legislature worthy of his reelection included the
new Non-Partisan election of judges, of which he was
the co-sponsor. He also sponsored a Mortgage Morator-
ium law which was only Withdrawn when a similar one
from the Senate was accepted by the House and enact.
ed. He backed a law which would enable real estate own
ers with delinquent taxes to pay the oldest taxes first if
unable to pay all. Another was his proposal for incur

The most expensive political am.
paign in the nations history comes TO
an end next Tuesday. More money will
nave been spent by both parties in the
National. Senatorial. Congressional,
state and local campaigns than ever
before.
That is not to imply that there is
anything improper in the spending of
money by political organizations fer
election purposes. 1t costs money to
pay the expenses of speakers, to pay
for advertising in newspapers and on
~blllboards, to buy time on the air, to
print booklets, circulars and badges by
the tens of millions, and to pay the
wages of employees.
All of these expenses 50 far as they
relate to national Offices, Presidential,
Senatorial or Congressional, are re.
quired to be reported to the proper Of
ficials in Washington in detail, anC
particularly pains are taken to scrut-
inize them with great care and fire.
quently to investigate them after
wards. Since the passage of the cor
rupt practices act. more than 20 years
ago, instances have been very rare Oh
improper or fraudulent use of money
in elections for such purposes as brib-
ing voters or concealing the expend-
iture Of campaign funds.
Practically all of the states require
reports of campaign expenditures made
on behalf of state, county and NUM-
cipal officers, so that it is increasingly
difficult fos any party, however well
organized and financed, to buy an ell

able invalids to be cared for in state institutions. Again,
he introduced a bill which would have given Montana
the Turrens land system for recording titles, which has
been so successful in Canada. This bill, approved by the
House, was killed in the Senate.
Peterson voted against the Gin Marriage law, as
well as the legalizing of gambling, and he also opposed
rigidly the compulsory consolidation of counties, which
would give small eastern counties less representation
than they now have, if any at all.
In r C. Tyler. voters of Sheridan county will find a
splendid running mate for P. c. Petersen. Mr.. Tyler is a
practical farmer. He has lived in the county ever since
il was formed. and served as one of its first commission
ers. He has not only demonstrated, by building up a
splendid farm home near Homestead that he is a prac-
teal farmer, but has, through service to his own COM
munity and the county as a whole, proven his value as
one who understands his ~neighbors' problems. Chosen as
the first president of the wheat allotment organization in
the county, he has been returned to that office every
year in recognition of the fine public service he gave to
the wheatgrowers of Sheridan county.
The election of P. c. Petersen and R G. Tyler to the
legislature cannot help but reflect credit to Sheridan
county, and the Herald is confident they will be given
splendid majorities with the rest of the Democratic ticket
next Tuesday.

ection. There is nothing shocking,
therefore. in the fact hat this years
political campaigns, taken altogether,
will u to around SIS, 0 10000.
The Money Spent
OF this amount the Republican Ma
tional Committee is expected to report
the expenditure of SS.336, 900, which is
the largest amount ever spent by any
party in a presidential campaign, ex-
cept in 1928. when the Republican Ma
tional Committee spent S9,433,000 and
the Democratic National Committe,
expenditures will run around $1,000
900. The Senatorial and Congressional
Committees of toe two major parties
are expected to spend about S500,00O
each.
Senatorial and Congressional can
didates' personal expenditures vii
run to about 81. 0O0, 900 The minor par
ties, Union, Socialist. Communist, Pro-
hibition. Farmer-Labor, etc, will prob
ably spend among them about So 5000
900. State, county and local campaigns
will account for another S8,00O,000.

crease in the number of voters whom
every candidate and committee is try

ton of more than a million to the reg

of enacting a law permitting the poll

many Of the larger cities OF the Middle
West. the total vote is normally COM
pletely tabulated and recorded within
an hour after the close of the polls.
But with the extension of voting time
in New York and the probability that
il will be necessary to resort TO paper
ballots to supplement the work OF the
voting machines, the way is paved tor
a long delay in the reports from this
and other vital centers of election night
interest.
The Straw Vote Polls
In no previous campaign has there
been such an extensive use of the me-
thod OF trying to forecast the election
by means of polls or straw votes.
One enterprising newspaper, the
Cleveland News, conducted what 1t
calls a poll to end all polls" That
newspaper discovered that no less
than 1907 separate polls were being
made, nationally or by states and To-
c~alities.
Combining the results of these polls,
the Cleveland News comes to the con-
clusion that, if these straws actually
do show which way the wind blows,
Mr. Landon will get 307 electoral votes
against Mr.. Roosevelt's 220. Analyses
of the major polls by others do not
bear out this conclusion. Indeed, as the
election day approaches, it still re-
mains anybody's guess as to whether
the President will be selected or Mr..
Landon will go to the White House.
All of the polls and straw votes
have been under more vigorous fire
than ever before. Polls which show a
decided trend toward Republican vic
tory have been attackd by the Demo-
Gratis and vice versa.
Much of the criticism of some of the
more important polls has been based
upon the allegation that they do not
necessarily represent the views Of ac-
tuel voters. Those critics have main
tanned hat the only way to get an ac-
curate forecast is to poll all of the reg
istered voters of the state or nation.
