JUvtng the larmst circulation o( any pa per in Columbia Courtly. )V. P. KEADY AND JAlES WITHY COM LIE. Mr. W. 1 Keady, extretii .Jy practical lilician and manipulator of conveii .lions, incidentally recent of the Cor ,vallii Agricultural CullcRe, demands ,tlie resignation ol Dr. James Withy .coiubc, director of that institution, because lr. Witliycouiu has announced himself as a candidate for the office ol 'Governor. Keady, at the recent meet inj of the regents, introduced a resold tion demanding Dr. Withycombe's reeijt nstion, and this resolution .was support ed by two Democrats and one Ilepubli ,can, Uie Republicau being a federal office holder named Daly. It wa opposed by Regent! Ackerman, Dunbar, Alwell, Apperson, Irvine, Ystes and Leady. Jio wonder inch Republicans as Keady oppose Dr. Withyconibe. Mr. Keady has stated that he prefers to see Chaniherlain elected raUier Ilia a Dr. Raines Wilhycombo. Keady .Claris that Witnycouibe is .working Jo secure Ute nomination for oeraor, and in so doing is neglecting .his official dnlies; .bat it will require more than Mr. Ready's word to make those acquainted with Dr. N'Hhycoinbe beleive this. As director of tbe Agricaltaral College be has for many years visited gatherings ol farmers and lectured to yicm upou sub jects connected wift sgricnlture, and "this it was his duty to do. The.fa.riuers ,of Oregon never bad a better or more 'intelligent friend than Dr, James Witlijcombe. Now who are Keady and Daly, the only Republicans who asked ,Jor WUnyconib's resignation? Keady is a professional political worker and .legislative lobbyist, and it was rumored that he was jiberajly ,Pi4 for bis work in connection witi the State printers womiualion in tbe last Republican con tention. It is certain that his nephew, notwithstanding he was ctterly incom petent, secured a position in the state Printing Office, and that his brother had .charge of the printing office of the State Agricultural College, of wbkb Kady is f n-gent. Daly is United States Sut- .or General, and secured his job by Awing for Senator fpltgn. All ,these men are opposed to the direct prim-rr system. Tbey believe the parties .should be ruled by uose the tore th y have no use for a man who annoynces himself a year in advance and thus gives the public ample opportunity to discuss his merits and demerits Their attack upon Dr. Withycotntw will not injure liiui in tbe least.

IT IS LOADED, Senator Fulton's proposition to hoid a .State contention for Uie purpose of makiqg recommendations as to who Vhall be 1 1, e Candida ten (or State nomi .uations bafyre the direct primaries is said to be finding furor, as we hare no doubt u is among the politicians, though some of them have sense enough to see thaU sucli a move will go far oward (ecuring the de teat of the Repub Jican ticket iu llie general election next June. One distinuti'lied politician says: '"The difficulty with tbe direct primary system is that it gires Tom, Dick and Harry a chance to nominate men on less than the majority of the party vote." The Lord deliver the Republican party from its fool fnei-ds. Tom, Dick aud iarrr did ' not get the party in the crape it is now in. Tbey did not .nominate an nnpopular man for Govern .oj. They did not baild up either of Uie old machines until .the mass of the people were practically debarred from faring any say whatever in Uie nomi nation of the candidates for whom tbey wrere expected Jo vole. All this wa done by the kid gloved gentry who are now afraid that unless tie people are properly steered, governed snd controll ed they mar do something ash. It is feared that candidates may 1 .nominated by a plurality vote. Did it t?er occur to these gentlemen that can didates are very often elected by a plurality vote, and no .one sc.eins to have the hardidood to Sigjrest that this system should be changed. Vi are simply going to conduct the sominating primaries on the tame lines that the flections hare heretofore been condnct ed and Lbe I.ess interference there is from the bosses lie better t will be for the party. - Tom, Dick and lf.arrj so contemptu ously referred to, srtjjefrijmon, every day people, who toil with their hands, ur with their brains. They are the tar jntrt, the business men, the mechanics, f it laborers, They see the "rejt" leaders of the Republican party arrayed in hostile ramps, and preferring to cot ac i others throats rather than to sur render the reins of power, and they say with Mercul'fy "A plague u b, i yonr houses." Tliey hare abunt con cluded to gire the bosses a rest, i and they will pay no atlentioo whsterer to anv adrisprw.cjnyeutioii that msr be JiaU-hed up.

Five hundred and forty badges had been printed, bearing the inscription "Colombia County, Oregon Au Un developed Empire." These were all distributed arid some of our people were obliged to go withont. Of course some of these badges were given sway to non residents, but we think it safe tt sar that at least x) residents of-the county were present, and they came from eTery sectivn of the coonty. Tie exercises took place at the Oreg.in Cnilding, the program being as follows. Address of Welcome ..... Hon. Jefferson Myers Response Judge T. A. Mudride Vocal solo, "AH for You".' ...... J .
