Page Five THE MIDVALE JOURNAL -August 31 1928 THE COUNTY FAIR The harvest moon, yellow as a new cheese, rides high in the heavens. The sun sinks in shrouded majesty, lighting a canopy of clouds banked in the west. A haunting mist softens the lines of the high board fence, the grand stand and the judge's stand at the race track. The twin lights of hundreds of automobiles are gently blurred like stars beneath a filmy cloud. The evening breeze wafts the scent of new-cut corn across the country. All Is In readiness for the county fair. For weeks the children and their parents have been looking forward to the event. The women folk have been canning fruit and making pickles for the exhibit. The men have fed and groomed the colt, the calf and the shorthorn. In the households and In the fields and barns careful preparations have been made for the scheduled competitive events. Here, also, will be a great open forum for the discussion of the Issues which Interest the farmer folks. The astute campaignor for county office will be bustling about with the proverbial box of cigars under one arm, the other free to lift little Johnny Jones and his sister to his knee the while he praises them to their parents. properly done this means two votes and maybe more. The displays In the arglcultural hall are properly arranged, as well as the exhibits of new machinery and other mechanical devices. The county fair Is a great Institution. Long may It live.

ALL SHOULD PARTICIPATE Deplores Fact Only Half of Electorate Usually Goes to Polls-No Excuse for Absentees. (This Is the first of a series or statements on campaign issues by the chairman of the Democratic Na· tiona! Committee.) By John J. Raskob Nothing Is more Important to the future of America than that our citl~ens manifest their own Interest in its future by voting. We must de· .plore the tact that In the last pres!· dentlal election, or fifty-four million qualified voters, only about fifty per cent cast their votes. Thls year, it .Is anticipated that there will be flfty1eix million qualified V{)ters In the country, and I hope and urge that the great proportion of these will take advantage or the Voting Right. It Is a sad comment:y-y on our democ· racy that Germany, with only half of our population, saw 'two m!llion more Totes cast at its election for president than the United States In 1924. We are generally behind other coun1trles In the votiug record, although In foreign countries the voting fran' chlse has been a comparatively recent exercise of sovereignty by the citizens. It Is commendable that both parties this year are making earnest eadeavors to have enrolled a very large vote. It an administration 1s to function well and to decide wisely on Important Issues, It should be governed by public opinion. We eertalnly do not get the public opinIon of the United States when only ftfty per cent ot the qualified voters appear at the polls. The time to record either satisfaction or disapproval or officials Is on Election Day. Grumbling about our public servants on other days ot the year Is largely a waste ot time. M inorlty Government We do not want to see here a government of all the people by fifty per cent ol the people. We have been having a government by only a major!ty within the tl.fty per cent, which Is tar less than the actual majority or the qualified voters. This coming election will atrord the people an opportunity to register their views In no uncertain way on aome fundamental issues. Neither or the candidates, It elected, would reel primed lor acting as Chief Executive It only a portion of fifty per cent ot the voters Is responsible for his certificate or election. In 1924 Mr. Coolidge received fifteen million, seven hundred and twenty·llve thousand and sixteen Mr. Davis received eight Totes. million, three hundred and eighty·six thousand, six hundred and twenty· four votes. Mr. La Follette received tour million, eight hundred and thirty thousand and tour hundred and sev· enty-elght votes. And there were 1cattered one hundred and fifty-seven thousand votes. The total vote was only twenty-nine million, ninety-nine thousand, one hundred and thirty-one. There were qualified to vote In 1924 11fty.four million, one hundreli twenty·elght thousand, eight hundred and ninety-live. So that Mr. Cool· ldge, who was elected President, only received a little more than one-fourth or the qualified votes of the country .

Why not a little more recognition by the people of the city of the opportunities, and P\JJi:d instead of sending money away to develop other cities, keep it at home. J',{l ~ ~<. has led our legislative bodies Into taking action In order to develop a greater vote. The principal measures iu this Ilno have been the various laws made by the states for "absentee voting." Forty-live or the fortYeight states have made provisions so that absentees from these states may cast their ballots. For every one hundred votes cast for President In 1920, there were ninety-six who could vote but did not. 'fhis is no way to elect a President or the United States, who, under our Constitution, Is given more power than any one human being In the world. Rem em her, this campaign will be the most stirring in the history or A :. · ~r· i c an politics. There Is no American who does not want to take part in it. In many Instances heretofore the race has been very close. Under our Electoral College system ot selecting a president, one state may decide the result. In that state, a few votes either way may determine the entire election. One man's vote is as good as another man's vote. The quality known as Americanism is demonstrated to a mathematical certainty at the polls. Your vote Is val uable. Do not throw It away. rr a debtor owed you money, and you were away on the due date, you would make arrangements tor him to transmit your money to you wher· ever you might be. You can make a similar arrangement In regard to the vote. Absentee Voting Simple Voting under the absentee voting laws Is made simple and requires but little effort.
