' Tie AsstcuUy AgiiiiL r: Since the meeting of the State Ceni tral Committee toeld v In I Portland this week, considerable ; politics has been talked In every precinct of the tate. First the assemble phi is furthermost In the limelight. How ever this much must be conceded by , all those who are in a measure op posed to the assembly' plan, that if tW assembly was organized and con, ducted with the highest motive to best' conserve the party and 'state; there could be no .objection to It. The tear of the assembly plan Is that it would Id a .measure: return to the old .time" corrupt convention wherein one ,or two bosses would vdictnte the politics of the state. The dlrec-V pri mary plan Is Intensely , popular with the masses for the reason that the boss has been ." eliminated but tbst thoughtful citizen realizes that un less there is some leadership, direc tion, a " plan for the assembling of the active men from all sections of the Btate. to discuss matters, promul gate party policy,' that .party organ!' cation wll! cease.' ' ; ; v .This ' applies to minority as well as to majority parties. In the ab , aence of some such plan of assembly; or stall it convention, if you Insist, the nominees ' who practically nomi nate themselves have as many dlfti; ent platforms as there are candl dates. '.'' '' , It Is more than probable that the ; assembly plan will meet "with little oppositioa in Union county as; far, as tate nominations or platform -. sug: gestlons are concerned, but owing to the fact that there Is little excuse for the holding of a county assem ' bly or convention, our conditions do not require It this year, another year conditions may be different. Every man who aspires to a nomi nation In, this county will he person ally known to the great majority of the voters and as the assembly can-1 dldates must go before the primaries for ratification, there is little excuse . for running the riak of a misunder- standing which might follow such aj convention. ,. - . . The next few weeks those aspiring for office will get themselves before the public. ( At present the names of Andrew C 'Smith,' of Portland; Dr. Wlthycombe. of Corvalhaj Mr. Dlm- mlck, of Oregon Clty ' Charles M.
