At IK mretiot of the Oreaoa Pre

Oetoox Hut iatrudacej the luitoaiaf
rcaolalioo:
"Reaolred, Tht the Iwrfoa Pre Af
aortatioa heartily indorse aad approve
of the etrirt harrvantw of the direct
primary law, believing that all laat
aJopted by the people or their repreeea
tative are eolillrd to a tall and fair
trial."
The rote oa the adopt1 t '
lotion iu anacimca, so we take it for
granted that the pre of Oregon ia folly
committed to the principle of the direct
primary la, and that in member will
do ererythicg ia their power to fee that
it ia carried oat la letter and ia spirit.
We bejere there ia ao leer of the reentU
