Adults, 50c, Children, 25c One Ticket Admits You to Everything The Direct Primary Nominating League of Orogon has sent out the following circular letter to every newspaper In the state and to many of the Individual voters. It clearly sets forth the objects of the primary law that Is to bo voted upon In June and should bo studied carefully by those Interested In the maintenance of good government through the peo ple. The circular Is as follews: We ask your vote for the direct primary nominating election law, No. 302 on the official ballot, for the fol lowing reasens: It makes the people's votes tho only power to nominate candidates for public office, and so destroys the party boss system. This Is one of the greatest powers in our government, perhaps greater than tho right to elect tho officers from among tho candidates after the nomi nation. Tho men who really govern are those In the. great parties who can make or break candidates for nomi nation. So long as those bosses can nominate their friends for office tho government will be good for the bosses no matter who is elected. When tho people nominate tho can didates as well a.s eloct the officers, tho government will be good for tho people, no matter who is elected. Men have died for tho right to cast tho ballot, and surely the right to make the ballot is not loss valuable or sacred than tho right to voto It No man would think of having del egates, or conventions do his voting at tho general election, and It Is quite as important that ho do his own vot ing at tho nominating election. In tho last two years bills have been introduced In 22 legislatures for primary nominating elections. Tills bill is submitted for the approval or rejection of tho people becauso it cannot bo defeated at tho ballot box by political tricks and trades If you enact this law you will choose your party candidates at a nominating election, and no combina tion of bosses will bo ablo to nnmo tho candidates for your party, much less can they make a slate for both parties. This bill Is endorsed by many Re publican county conventions and by tho Democratic stato convention. By a political trick of tho managors tho question was not allowed to come bo foro tho Republican state convention. It l not a partisan measure in any sonse of the word. Senator Mitchell. Governor Chamberlain and othor broad-mlndod statosmou and poli ticians who are strong in an open con tost bofore tho people favor thl3 bill And with them are nearly all the men who trust tho peopio and believe thoy aro fit and able for soir-govornmont. Tho mon who foar tho 'people, and all llttlu politicians who must have a nomination given to them if thoy ovor got one, and nil tho boodlors and bosso3 who mako money out of poli tics are against tho bill. It Is not oxponsive, for it will cost nbout 35 conts ovory twojroars for each voter, or $35,000 for the stato. But tho power to mako nominations must bo worth more than it costs, for tho politicians do nol complain of tho oxponso. It Is not moro oumbrous or compli cated than tho Australian ballot law, and it is drawn on the snmo princi ples. Nominations will bo mado by tho highest number of votes jiut as tho constitution requires in all elec tions. Tho boat government Is possible only by having tho beet mon of all parties for candidates, and the peopio can trust no ono but thonisolvos to choose such candidates. Nominations cannot bo bought nor stolon from tho people aa they havo boon from convontlons. When tho peopio nominate, overy candidate for nomination .must staufl alono on his own merits, and months bofore tho nominating election his friends will bo proclaiming his char. actor, record, ability and fitness for mo place. But thoy will novor boast of his paymonts to tho "primary fund." nor of the places ho has found In his office for tho friends of tho "managing committee" at tho ex pense of tho taxpayers. And ho who has not two friends per 100 members of his party who want to sign a pe tition to put his nnmo on tho parly nominating ballot, Is a very poor stick to ask tho peopio to trust him with an office. The Bill Provldeo that on petition of two per cent of tho party vote tho county clerk will print tho candidate's name on party nominating ballot. If ho receives tho highest number of his party votes at the nominating election he has hl3 party's nomination and his name will be printed on tho official ballot as its candidate. None but registered mem bers of the party can sign his peti tion. None but mombers of a party can voto at the nominating election, but this does not apply to tho general election In June for public officers. This enables members of a party to mako its nominations without inter ference by othor parties or mercenary voters. Every political party is given the right to tho solo nnd exclusive use of all of its party name. This will prevent candidates for spite as well as fusion. Political parties casting 25 per cent or more ot tho total vote must nomi nate all their candidates under this law. It does not apply to city elec tions in towns of les-, than 2000 pop. illation. Independent candidates and political parties casting less than 25 per cent of the total vote must continue to nominate as thoy do now under the Australian ballot Inw, which Is Sea 2791 B. & C. Cddes. Candidates for nomination for tho legislative assembly may pledge the people in their petition that they will or will not, vote for the people's cliblee for Unite 1 States Senator, regardless of their personal preference. Tho bill provides for nominations for that office. Senator Mitchell and many others bolleve this will prevent the nomina tion of any candidate for tho legisla ture who doos not pledge himself to voto for the people's choice, and thin resi'lt practically In the direct elec tion of our senators in congress. Tho legislature will simply ratify tho peo pie's choice In much tho same way that tho president is elected. Tho Judges and clerks of the gen eral election act also at the primary nominating election. N All the pos ceedings for each party so far as pos sible aro tho same as at tho general election. Each party has Its separate ballot, but tho nominating election Is at the same time and placo for all parties subjoct to tho bill. The voto is by secret ballot, which gives every man an equal opportunity before tho peopio of his party. It does not destroy political parties but provides for their government by tholr leglstered members Just as a city Ij governed by its registered voters. This law does not mako any change in the Australian ballot or the meth od of voting at regular general elec tions. It provides for opening the registration books from Septembor 20th to October 20th before each presidential election. Public oillcers will moro faithfully servo tho people becauso their politi cal life will depend always upon tho people and no ono olse. If you enact this law you placo tho governing power moro directly In tho hands of tlip peopio, nnd therefore carry it a step nearer to tho Araorl- eadacli Can be Cured with Dr. Miles' Anti Pain Pills.
