Washington. D. C. April IT. Re ports from California indicate that the democracy of that state Is arous ed to oppose the efforts of Win. Ran dolph Hearst to make himself the dictator of the democratic party by means of putting a grateful repre sentative in the white house. It de velops that the representations that Woodrow Wilson has been eliminated In California were the result of a Hearst intrigue and are absolutely untrue. The Wilson workers declare that DIRECT LEGISLATION BY O. P. Sha! we beat I Bourne ? Bourne's speech in advocacy of Oregon Sys tem has had a greater circulation than any other speech ever delivered In the U. S. senate More than 2. 700,000 copies were mailed on re quest alone. To my mind all the things which Bourne has done and is trying to do shrink into Insignificance compared to the work he has done and will con tinue to do for direct legislation. The fight he maIe in 1906, two years be fore Ben Selling reluctantly stood for Statement No. 1, made it possible for us today to vote for U. S. senators, and has forced legislative candidate: to agree to carry out our wishes in that matter. Selling claims to have led the fight for Statement No. I in Multnomah two years after the ejection of Bourne on that issue. In an open letter to Selling, Kelleher says: "You refer to the fact that you led the fight for Statement No. 1 in Multnomah county four years ago. This is in spite of the fact that I was the first candidate to file for state senator and in spite of the fact the friends of Bourne, by means of peti tions had to urge you to get into the race." Under date of April 9, 1906, in an open letter tr the republicans of Ore gon, U'Ren says.

The campaign in behalf of the nomination of Governor Woodrow Wilson for the presidency is receiv ing strong support from all sections of the country. William Jennings Bryan is delivering a number of speeches this week for Governor Wil scn on the Ohio and today word was received at Woodrow Wilson head o.uarters from Nebraska that R. Metcalf, the editor of The Commoner has taken the stump in that state in behalf of the candidacy of the New Jersey executive. Everywhere progressives are lining up for Governor Wilson who la op posed in all of the states .by the re actionaries and ''the allies." Roland Oliver is the progressive republican candidate for the legisla ture. He subscribed to Statement No. One. (Paid advertisement.) Ai RECALL NEEDED TEFL. for the sole purpose of enforcing the Statement No. 1 agreement of the law. They told him at the time It would cost from $10,000 to $15,000 and they did not believe he was well enough known to be elected. That through his efforts they thought the law would be enforced even though he should not be elected Senator and they believe he was big enough man to sacrifice himself for a principle. The campaign has cost more than $15,000 for postage, printine nt clerk hire alone. No other candidate or V. S. senate has so much as raised his voice or written a line in favor of requiring would-be members of the legislature to sign Statement No. 1. I say these things concerning Mr. Bourne because I know they are true and because he has been and is being more persistently and industriously lied about and vilified by the enemies of Statement No. 1 than any other man in Oregon politics today. I have never heard any man who knows Mr. Bourne question his honesty, his truthfulness or his ability." The same is true today. AJ1 gov ernments, in all ages, are and have been administered for the benefit of the governors. We need the national initiative, referendum and recall, and the re-election of Bourne will be of greater he'p in this matter than that of any other candidate. Yours respectfully, O. D. TEEL.

After the great Roosevelt victory in Illinois, in which the people really had an op portunity to express themselves, no reasonable person can doubt that the ultimate end is the nomination of Colonel Roosevelt for President, So completely was Taft defeated In Illinois that he received but two dele gates to Roosevelt's 56 the single district that Mr. Taft carried being Senator Lorimer's. A thorough Roosevelt .victory In Oregon is thus presaged by all. Taft Rout Is Complete. Senator Fred W. Mulkey, of Port land:, Oregon, Roosevelt committee man, has received the following tele gram from Joseph M. Dixon, of Wash ington, D. C., the Roosevelt campaign manager: 'Four hundred and sixty-eight dele gates to the Republican National Con vention have been elected up to and including today. Of these, 142 are for Colonel Roosevelt, 44 for Mr. Taft. 4 for Senator Cummins, 36 for Senator La Follette. 94 uninstructed, Including S4 from New York State, and contests are pending in cases of the remaining US. "The Taft rout has begun. "Following the great Roosevelt vic tory in Illinois, comes the report of the Roosevelt victory in Maine. The action of the Maine Republican state and district conventions In pledging, by a vote of two to one, their entire delegation of 12 delegates to the Chi cago convention for Roosevelt shows conclusively that the New England Republicans are keeping step with Ill inois and the other Republican States of the Mississippi Valley in the Roose velt column. New England for T. R. "Tho Taft managers have beeu loud ly proclaiming that New England was solid for Taft. "The result In Maine makes their claim ridiculous. "In Vermont, Roosevelt takes one half of the instructed delegates and the state convention by mutual agree ment selects two Roosevelt and two Taft delegates and sends all of them to Chicago uninstructed. Final returns show that Roosevelt carried Illinois by ibotit 150,000 majority. "It was a landslide which swept verythiug before It, except one dis rict, the Fifth, which is Lorimer's.

The districts of ex-Speaker Cannon and McKinley, the manager of :ho Taft propaganda, endorsed -Roosevelt overwhelmingly, McKinley losing his own precinct by a two to one vote after having personally devoted some lime lo it. The entire country should not overlook the significance of Roose velt's carrying the ninth congressional district of Illinois by a vote of over two to one. in which live two of Taft s cabinet, officers, McVeagh of the Treas ury; Fisher ot tho Interior; ex-becre-tary of War Dickinson.

If Theodore Roosevelt is the man the people ofOregon want for Presi dent, they have a right to know what he has done. While Roosevelt was President, did he make a good or bad record? No one will question that ever nn executive left the White House who was so thoroughly the idol of the "just people" as Theodore Roosevelt. ' What Roosevelt Did. The Interests feared and hated him. That was because he had curbed them. They fear and hate him now. But what did Roosevelt DO? Here are some of the things he DID: 1. Panama Canal begun and vigor ously pushed, despite continual oppo sition of transcontinental railroads. 2. Dolliver-Hepburn Railroad Act forced through a flercely hostile Con gress, thus giving the Interstate Com merce Commission power to prescribe and enforce railroad rates. 3. National Irrigation Act passed and work on a tremendous scale Im mediately commenced. 4. The Door of China opened and kept open to American commerce. 5. Russo-Japanese War settled by Portsmouth treaty. 6. Alaska Boundary Dispute with Canada settled without loss of terri tory. 7. Avoiding pitfalls caused by irri tation by reason of Japanese Immigra tion and amicably arranging for re striction. 5. Organization or movement to conserve our natural resources, which, If sensibly carried on, means the up building forever of the West. 9. Withdrawal of power sites on public land from entry. Thus was the great. "Water Power Trust" checked. (Sites since restoredt to en try by Taft.) . Improvement of' water ways for transportation. 10. Proper compensation to those injured and to families of those killed on railroads operating interstate Em ployers' Liability Act 11. Safety Appliance Act to require railroads to equip cars with safety ap pliances designed to protect employes from injury. 12. Settlement of great Pennsyl vania coal strike. On Saturday the people and worklitgmcr. of Pennsyl vania showed the'r appreciation. 13. Regulation of railroad em ployes' hours of labor. 14. Department of Commerce and Labor established. 15.
