14 THE 3IOBKING OREGONIAJST, 3IOXDAY, AUGUST 14, 1905. PARTY LEADERS IT HARMONY Republican Chiefs Differ as to Methods, but All Desire Unity. LEGION OF PEACE ENVOYS Factional Strife That Has Divided Hanks Must Be Eliminated, All Agree, or Result Next Year 3Iay Be Disastrous. How to cement together the factional clang of the Republican party In Oregon so as to put downGovernor Chamberlain, Democrat, and exalt a Republican to his place is a problem full of toll and trouble for leaders of the party. And becauee the chief? fear that the direct primary law will toar the factions etlll wider asunder by conferring on big counties, such as Multnomah and Marlon, dictatorial pow ers In the nominating primaries, thus driving jealous small counties to bolt in the election, and by exciting defeated primary candidates to the revenge knife, sharper, perhaps, than that which laid low the Republican candidate for Gov ernor, W. J. Furnish, three years ago, and lifted up George E. Chamberlain, Democrat, against a normal Republican plurality of 20,000 votes, the chiefs say one and all that the prospect is far from "looking good" to them. "Get together," they cry, as they look back and behold the fate of thenr" that were mowed down before Governor George Chamberlain three years ago, and Multnomah Prosecuting Attorney John Manning and Sheriff Tom Word last year, and Mayor Lane two months ago, and Circuit Judges Galloway. Hamilton and Bradshaw last year, all of the afore said being Democrats, while their Repub lican opponents have gone to helr politi cal graves. "Get together." That Is very easy to ay; In fact, it has been said many years by members of the Simon camp and of the Mitchell and now of the Fulton contingent. They all agree that the party will go to destruction if the dissensions that have torn it cannot be pacified. They all agree that some thing ought to be done to bring dis cordant elements into brotherly unity, but the only man who has thus far come forward with a plan for that ond is Sen ator Fulton, and though many Republi cans regard it as a practical solution, a large number of them say It is imprac ticable at this time, and will continue to be so until the direct primary system shall have proved its failure. Disagree on Plan for Harmony. Consequently, even on the plan of "get ting together." the Republican brethren are at variance and are fighting one an other's views as In time past they have fought one another's candidates. But party leaders ay they arc more hopeful of "getting together" now that the Mitchell faction has "got even" on the Simon faction and the Simon faction on the Mitchell than evor before in the recent history of things political. They have hopes that all the bolters will bo forgiven and received back as erring chil dren Into the bosom of the party. Still, they do not think that the men who have led any of the bolts can safely be put on the ticket just now lest the spirit of the new-born Cain deal death among the hosts again. First of the leaders for harmony is Senator Fulton, who has declared time and .again that he and his friends are ready to go their share of the Jdistance nnd more, to sprinkle salt on the tall of the dove of poace. T. T. Geer. ex-Governor and tall timber of Waldo's hills, though hitherto dwelling outside the Ful ton regions, said what came to the same thing, when in Portland last week. Quoth he, after again asseverating that he was no miscellaneous candidate: ' "Lot bygones be bygones." Many Advocates of Unity. Another of the peace envoys is Frank C. Baker, chairman of the State Central Committee, who demands neither indem nity nor cession of territory. Even W. J. Furnish, victim of bolters in the contest for Governor in 1902, Is willing to call off the dogs of war if the men who have been In the habit of bolting heretofore will keep hands off hereafter or until the new spirit of harmony shall have waxed strong. George S. Wright, of McMInn vllle. State Senator, while viewing the charms of the Fair this Summer, has said that all his prayers are for a lasting peace. Stephen A. Lowell, of Pendleton, whom the Furnish clement credits with responsibility for Furnlsh's defeat, wishes that the brethren henceforward shall love one another. J. W. Scrlber, of La Grande, says he would like to see the tomahawk burled forever. And many other big men of the party have expressed themselves in the same vein, on their visits to Port land, such as W. I. Vawter and J. M. Keone, of Medford; Henry Ankeny and S. H. Friendly, of Eugene; C. A. Johns, of Baker City; Malcolm A. Moody, of The Dalles: J. W. McCulloch. of Malheur County; E. W. Haines, State Senator for Washington County; State Representa tive J. N. Burgess, of Bake Oven, Wasco County: N. Whealdon, of The Dalles. State Senator for Wasco; John D. Daly. of Corvallls; Dr. James Wlthycombe, di rector of the Agricultural College experi ment station; E. V. Carter, of Ashland, buue senator lor Jackson, and many others. Governorship Is Coveted Place. The nominating primaries will be hold next April, for the election In the ensu ing June of an almost complete new set of state officers. Conventions for nomina tion of party candidates have been abol ished in Oregon, by enactment of the di rect primary law three years ago and henceforth party nominees are to bo chosen by popular vote of party mem bers. The Governorship is not the only ob ject of concern, though on account of Its now being held by a strong Democrat, Republican leaders are more anxious for it than for any other. It is the first office of the state, but there are others of high Importance, which Democrats wish for mightily, such as thons of Secre tary of State, State Treasurer, State Printer. State Superintendent of Public Instruction, one Justice of the Supreme Court, several Judges of the Circuit Court and two Representatives in Con gress, all offices now held by Republicans. Multnomah's political power is about one-fourth that of the entire state. Judged by this county's share of the state registered vote. This strong force exercised in the nominating primaries might monopolize so many nominations as to incite "cow" counties to bolt the Republican nominees. The "cow" coun ties are always more or less jealous of Multnomah s political and commercial prestige and Democrats would not miss any opportunity of stirring up a re volt among tnem. jvna Kepubllcans co so. far as to say that Democrats would invade the Republican primaries for the very purpose of nominating Republican . candidates for slaughter in the election. Just as numbers of them contributed to the rcnominatlon of Mayor Williams la Portland last May, who was nominated by 1000 plurality primary votes and de feated by 1200 plurality elecuoir-votcs. Cow Counties Want Representation. A flrlrn Vinf rcnnlil not dVC VCOW" counties representation or that would con tain nnminmc n!nRt whom Intense fac tional hatreds exist, would not be "safe." to insure nomination or a "saie uckci. Senator Fulton has advised a convention or eonfflrannft of Remibllcan leaders, to recommend candidates for primary nomi nations and to suggest party ipucics. "Hltli AT-tr nnnvnr lrnc Tmvp nut tin tickets. distributing the nominations over the state and balancing one section or tnc commonwealth with another. But now this can be done, if it is to be done at all, only by the party voters themselves, and the danger that it will not be done, TtfmiihHmna rimrd as lmnendlntT. The result they fear will be that counties like Multnomah and Marlon will got more nominations than other counties uunc thsv cVinuM have because the vote of big counties will be concentrated on one or more men while the vote of small counties will not avail against It. But defenders of the new system declare that the big counties will have so many candl- rates for a given nomination that its vote will be split up to correspond with Its voting strengtn; tnereny giving siaa.ii counties a fair chance. Convention Idea Xot Popular. It is not too much to say that most of the Republican leaders dislike the direct primary law, think it will fail and expect to discard it after it shall have worn Itself out. This does not mean, however, that they desire to have the primary law ignored, by the holding of a nominating or "recom mending" convention. They prefer the convention, but they see that it would not be popular at this time, bofore their expectation as to its failure shall have been realized. The demonstration of failure that they expect to see is the nomination of a poor ticket, the defeat of Republican nominees in elections and the upbuilding of Democratic pow er. Men holding high and low offices in the gift of the poople are of this mind and in private conversation they give It voice. The direct primary law is the focus of all attention in political circles, Re publican and Democratic, just now. It bears on every man's political fortunos. Introducing a new nominating system. it requires in turn a new system for control of nominations. A new politi cal regime is opening in Oregon; all persons see it. The retirement of Sen ator Mitchell from leadership leaves a place for somebody else. It is natural for Senator Fulton to look toward that chieftainship for himrelf and as might be expected, he in making his way to ward It. The appointment of R- S. Bean for district Judge to succeed the late C. B. Bellinger is taken by Sen ator Fulton's friends as a sign to the multitude that Senator Fulton Is to make distribution of Federal appoint ments horoaftcr, just as Senator Mitch ell has done hitherto. Bean was one of the first men recommended for ap pointment by Senator Fulton. And not only Federal appointments are to be at the disposal of Senator Fulton and his friends, but the Senator ship which John H. Mitchell will va cate after the end of his present term. Fifteen state Senators will be elected next June who will participate in the election of the next United States Sen ator in 1907 and in tho election of Sen ator Fulton's successor in 1909. It is obvious therefore that Senator Fulton's influence will be working' in the pri maries and the election next Spring. Can Senator Fulton Effect Cure? Now the question seems to be, can Sonator Fulton and his following mol lify the party and cure it of factional ism. It is to be remembered that Sen ator Fulton's political contingent has been identified with that of Senator Mitchell, which has been bitterly fought many years by an opposing: faction. The problem Is not an easy one for Sonator Fulton to solve and he knows it. Yet he has set himself to the task. It remains to be seen whether the ele ments which the Senator would pacify arc ready to enlist themselves under the banner that moans Fulton for re election to the United States Senate and Fulton for the head and front of the party in Oregon. In days gone by. the necosslty of party unity was ob vious to the factions just as now, only the one would not give up Its existence to yield Itself to the other.

There was a noticeable decrease In Sun day travel oh the river yosterday, and various causes are ascribed for this con dition of things. Some of the boatown ers insist that the drowning incident of last week, in which a launch ran down a row boat and two young persons lost their lives, together with the newspaper notoriety attached thereto, put the kibosh on the business, while others claim that the decline In traffic is the net result of so many pleasure-loving people being out of town for the Summer, At all events the boathouses are not making the money they did earlier in the season, one of the most prominent ownors stating yester day that his receipts for the day would foot up less than $100, as against from 530) to $330 earlier In the season. "The boating business has gone to the bow-wows all right," he gloomily re marked, "unless people get over their scare about the river being so dangerous. It is a great deal safer than carllnes, because only last night the trolley wire on a "U" car broke and blocked the whole system nearly an hour, while if anybody had come In contact with the live wire that was sizzing around on the ground. It would have put him out of commission In a hurry. The public does not seem to realize this view of the sit uation, and this sort of thing has oc curred at frequent Intervals lately. I have been around the waterfront in dif ferent parte of the country all my life, and have yet to see the first launch tip over; ' "Councilman Rushlight is merely play ing to the galleries when he seeks to secure the passage of an ordinance mak ing provision with reference to the char acter of lifc-prcservcrs to' be carried on river craft, because, if he knows any thing at all about law, he ought to real ize that neither the city or state gov ernment has any Jurisdiction whatsoever over navigable streams. That comes clearly within the purview of the Federal authorities, and any action by the muni cipality Is unconstitutional. The measure is unjust, also, because It makes dis criminations between private launches and those carrying1 passengers for hire. It is to our Interests to safeguard the public as much as possible, and the real danger, if any, comes from the owners of private launches who ha-e noth ing to lose by any public calamity, while we all know that it is a blow that strikes at the most vital part of our Industry. "Still, we would not object to the pro posed ordinance If it did not Impose con ditions so onerous that it. would be im possible to comply with them, as, for In stance, it provides that we shall carry the same kind of life-preservers as those required by the government of the United States, which were adopted for rough sea-going purposes, and are not necessary on the quiet waters of the river. Be sides, they are not only very expensive. but fully double the size necessary. andJ IKKU Up IUU IlJUVfl IUVIU Ill tv.v. liut, boats of more than IE tons burden are required to carry at least two life buoys besides the life-preservers, and the whole thing is an absurdity. The Idea of our being compelled to carry one of those big life-preservers for each passenger! Why. there would not be any room for anything else, and Rushlight is talking through his hat when he Introduces any such measure. There might be some sense to the Idea, without .considering its un constitutional features, if he would pro vide for one government life-preserver for even' two passengers, or something along those lines, but otherwise the whole thing is preposterous." SOME SPEEDY RIVER BOATS Various Types of AVater Craft May Try Conclusions. Considerable interest attaches to the question as to whether the Spencer or the Telephone or Telegraph are the speed iest of the river steamors, and it Is prob able a lot of money will change hands when either one of the latter two vessels hook up with the Spencer for a race. The Telegraph goes to Astoria next Tues day after the Elks, and It is reported that she intends to try for the record on each trip, going and coming. The Telephone is moored across the river, just below the Morrison-street bridge, and her beautiful linos have attracted a great deal of at tention recently. The Telegraph Is still on the ways, but expects to bo In read iness for her run down the river some time today. The Portland shipyard Is putting her in shape to ply between As toria and the Cascade Locks. Much speculation is centered also in the relative speed of some of the fastjaunches on the river, it being claimed tnat tne Gale, a now boat Just out from New York, can show a clearr-palr of heels to the hitherto Invincible Defender. The Favorite boathouse, which owns the lat ter, are somewhat dubious on the propo sition, and to clothe the matter with even greater mystery, nobody along the water front seems to know much about the Gale, or to whom she belongs, except that she has an eastern record, and skims over the waters like a ghost. Pure food laws are rood. Burnett's Va nilla Is pure. Insltt npn having Burnett'. Is Portland to Become Great? PORTLAND, Aug. 13. (To the Editor.) A visitor in Portland tells me that Portland can never become really great until it gets cheaper fuel. He asks me why coal mined in Washington, with freight rate of $1.40 a ton, costs about CT a ton In this city? The coal should not cost more than 51 at the mine. Who gets the difference between $2.40 and the $7? Have our first families a rake-off on this? 1 agree with our visitor that if we are to have manufacturing to help make Portland great, there must be a revolu tlon in the fuel business. Our Chamber of Commerce Is supposed to be an ag gressive institution, and it Is, In certain lines. Why does it not take hold of this fuel question? Can it be that some of the leading members of the Chamber are In terested in the fuel trust or whatever form of a steal it is that is taking enor mous profits and in some way keeping down competition?
