BY ALUSPIRANTS Entire Country is Turning to Gaze on This State to See How She Will Go About Her Presidential Nomi nations by Direct Vote. Oregon, leading the way, Is becoming the inecca of presidential nomination seekers, the first of which, Governor Wilson of New Jersey, being already Just without the gates Tor the first time In history a state will hold a pri mary election next spring and the eyes of the political world Is turning to Or egon. Already tentative plana havo been laid for the presidential primaries, and It Is this primary election which will produce Hit1 unusual situation and give Oregon a campaign which will be watched by the politicians In every cor ner of the country.

In the presidential primaries the re publicans and democrats wilt bo given opportunity to express at Iho polls their preference for the nominations for pres ident nml vice president. This Is the first time that such an opportunity has been afforded in any state, nnd the peo ple voted themselves this privilege last November, when tho bill was Initiated and became a law. It Is part of the "Oregon system." At the same time the voters will select delegates to the national conventions of tho two lead ing parties, and these delegates are bound to carry out tho wUhes of the voters of their respective parties as ex pressed in the presidential primaries. Kvery prominent aspirant for tho nom inations In the national conventions will want the official Indorsement of tho peo ple of Oregon, Particularly will this be tlm case with William Howard Taft, for should another republican bo tho choice of the Oregon republican for president It would reflect on his administration anil In a measure injure his chances In the ocnventlon. This would bo true not so much on account of tho parly strength In tills state, which Is small compared wth tho majority of eastern ntntes, hut It would be construed an the sentiment regarding Taft nnd his ad ministration In tho west.
