OPPOSES CAUCUS
Says Direct Primary Law Is
With Us and Good or Bad
Must Be Adhered to
"We have been repeated to make
public tome of the argument a lor and
agalnat the holding of a caucus. An I!o
nanta haa not been heard from no print
the following from that city:
In replying to your circular letter ol
the 10 ult. asking my opinion a to the
adviaihllity of calling a caucut of repub
lican voter to diacuia the political sit
uation and recommend a ticket to be
preeented to the voter at the coming
primary election, will lay that I believe
that aoch action would be iltadvited and
any ticket inch caucua would pot out
would be looked upon a arbitral)- and
in direct contravention ol the primary
law.
"Wo will not dlacusa the direct pri
mary law, however good or bad It may
be we have it with na ai we mnat ad
here lo it.
"Aatothadeaire ol the aspirant to
office to know jutt bow they "stand"
without any unnecessary expense, I
believe that it one doe not care to in
cur the expense incident to such a cam
paign he should keep out of it. A man
who submits hi naino to the considera
tion ol hi parly through tho direct pri
mary should in all conscience support
the choico of that party. At a caucua
or convention there always arlaea from
th defeated candidate the cry of "un
falrnesa and hnstlsm" which ill the di
rect primary is supposed to cure. To
avoid accusation ol unfairness and to
launch our ticket on the Held without
handicap should be tha aim ol all good
republicans, and believing that a ticket
chosen by such a caucus would bo ser
iously handicapped I am for the direct
primary law whll It la with us.
Yours vry truly,
CHA8. PATTEE."

IteglnninK Monday, Jane 1, and con
tinuing tint ill r-atnrday evening, Jane A,
the Portland Hose Featlval will I the
feature of the northwest. The first one
was held bit year and waa tuch nn un
equaled tucceta that the people of Port
land decide! lo make it a permanent
feature, and with that end in view In
corporated a company, who object It
wasio collect funds and promote the Fes
tival. That it meet the hearty rapport
of the business men ol Portland ia evi
denced by the enormoa amount that
has been subscribed and the vigorona
manner in which they are posblog it.
It will be advertised from the Pacific to
tlio Atlantic and tho railroad will give
special rate. It will rival in Importance
the Madri Ora ol New Orleans, the
Wiled Prophet ol Ht. LouU and th
Flower Carnival ol Lo Angel and will
undoubtedly attract a vat namber
ol people Irom all over th eooatry.
That it would be an opportune tlaao for
KUmath to he presented la certalav ad
that it ought to be rpreatd with a
float of some kind is th opinio) already
been expressed by anambrof it citi
zens. The Chamber ol Commerce did a
tplendid piece of work at Sacraaaesito.
Would it not be polbl tor It to do the
same at Portland? The expee of plac
ing a float in tbe parade would not be
very great. One of tbe meet noted
builder of float in th United Stat
hat been employed to detlgn and bUd
the float for the Featlval aad It would be
an eaty matter to employ hla to pre
pare the float lor Klamath. Th oooaty
no doubt will hav a large dtlagatloa la
Portland at th time of th Festival aad
they could make thir preeewc felt ia a
manner that would do much good for
Klamath.
Thl is a matter which the Herald U
lieve the Chamber of Coaamere sbsvld
take in hand at one aad asak prepara
tions lor proper reprntiitlon. It of
fers splendid opportunity for an lav
menense amount of advertising at a
minimum cost.
