Mr. Baker answers an inquity from ono of tho committeemen on this point through the columns of.the Oro gonian aud specifically denies that such was the intention of the meet ing. In part Mr. Baker says : "No, sir; thero is no likelihood that any member of tho committee will even move for a convention. What we have in mind is to have a reunion of the committee and other leading Ropubicaus from all over the state with a view of a united Repub lican party in Oregon. Ill my letter file are many lottors urging thut stops be taken toward harmony aud em phasizing tho justice of it ; and iu cloforonce to thoir viows aud the ox pressed opinion of Republican papers iu the state I decided to request the comniitteo to meet here at the above date and to bring long representative Republicans aud when hero to discuss whatever may bo discussable. In short the reunion will be a peace com mission an open door to the Repub licans who favor party harmony. Tho direct primary law was euaocea by the people and tor tho people it is the oir-spriug of tbo people thorn solves; aud no attempt shall be made to nullify in any degree its lottor or spirit ; but, my dear sir, tho Repub lican party the party of Abraham Lincoln aud McKiuloy and Roosevelt the party of protection and progress still lives I And here in Oregon it the same zeal displnyod last Novem ber in gettiug voters to the polls is displayed next year by loaders aud oliioials of the Republican party, evory nominee of om party for state aud district office will bo elected by pluralities approaching the unprece dented vote cast for Roosevelt aud Fairbanks ou that auspicious occa sion."
