' The suggestion as represented in an Interview of Chas. E. Cochran, who returned from Portland yester day, relative to the assembly plan Is most reasonable and logical. A Ga thering of the representative Repub licans of the state to decide upon the platform and to suggest- notntua tions for state officers is common senBe. With such a system no state platform is promlugated, few men are sufficiently acquainted' with 'vot ers of Oregon to make an Intelligent campaign without Involving a, largo financial expenditure. '" For state nominations there . are few objec tions to be made until such time as . some political boss becomes domin ant,, the people, through the primary may blight his dictation, for the as sembly plan has to submit its rec ommendations to the people at the primaries. , All will ' admit that In a republl 1 can form of, government, two great " parties about evenly divided insures more,., equitable laws and policies jthan If one party has a majority that Is apparently Impregnable. This be ing true that parties are essential to the welfare of: our govenrment, without the assembly plan how can party organizations be perfected and perpetuated? No posslbllty of form ing a state platform, no posslbllty of concerted action. In what way can a voter align himself to assist In carrying out any specific policy. there being no assignment of policy? Every , man who aspires to office Is to write his own platform and pro ceed to make his campaign. Each and every man for governor ma have a different platform and will. A state assembly Is necessary, but for the present at least let its work cease after adopting a state plat form and recommendng candidates for state officers. County and district are small po litical divisions and few men aspire to office when the great majority of the voters within these districts dj not know or cannct become acquaint ed with. Following the state assembly, can tttdates coming .before the people, asking either the Republican or Dera ocratlc voters to support them upon the platform adopted by the leaders of their respective parties means something. Without an assembly, ev erythlng Is chaotic, each candidate has a platform which he thinks will carry him through or possibly will announce himself as a candidate sub ject to the wishes of the voters of the party' with .which he aligns hlm self. and In many cases he could not write a platform or policy that 75 per cent of the members of his party, would consent to.

It Is not the old convention system, however. The old conventions system's actions were final. The action taken by the assembly is not, It can simply rec ommend, and its recommendations are voted upon by the people. The assembly may recommend some man for governor, this does not mean that other candidates may not as pire for the nomination, the man rec ommended . by , the assembly 'is strengthened by such recommenda tion but if the voters think the as sembly nominations are boss dicta ted they can easily be turned down. The opposition to the assembly comes more from fear of what might hap pen' than from - what would be ex pected, to take place. , Let us stop at the state, however, and eliminate the assembly plan for counties and districts. If we do not the dominant party will find that it has once more fallen a victim to tne wishes of the minor ity party In this state and that when the votaare . counted many offices will be filled by Democrats in coun ties where the normal Republican majorityjs sufficiently large to carry the entire ticket through to victory.
