NEED OF CONCESSION Right to Assemble .it Claimed Democrats Laugh in Their Sleevet at Trouble Free For All 8yttem it Causing. Harmony, Ore., Sept. 15, 1910. Editor of The Enterprise: As there has been spread abroad a false Imprcpslon as to the attitude and Intentions of the Republican organ ization In Cla.-kamas County and as the self selected candidates of tha opposition are asserting that the As sembly Is attempting to do away with the direct primary and otherlaws con cerning elections, and take something from the people, it seems an opportune time to set the mutter straight by an official statement frorn the organiza tion. , There Is no attempt nor proposition to do away with or repeal any of the direct primary acts by the organized Republican Party. The only prep osition to do away with the direct primary law was a proposed law by W. S. L"Ren to do away with all elections except to elect a commis sion which was to appoint ail officials and practically take all power out of the hands of the people and place It in the hand of a few, but that attempt has been abandoned for the present. We only claim the right to assemble and dlfccuss and recommend men and measures, only the rights for which our forefathers fought and shed their blood to win from the British Crown, only the right guaranteed by the con stitution of the r. S.. only the right reserved and specifically mentioned in the direct primary law itself, which right these anti-assembly men wish to take away from the- people of this country. If we oppose one assembly that is legal and lawful let us oppose all assemblies. Let us have a one man rule. Let us have the man who can show the blggeNt barrel and hire the most strikers to nominate himself, be the man 10 take the nomination, which is what this self nominating rule means. The recommendations of a large body of representative- men ought to have some weight and bold the re spect of thoughtful men. then if the men they name are not suitable the people under the primary law have the, right and power to reject them at the polls, and the single individual who take It upon themselves to go out and tell the people how to vote, rail at and abuse the assembly, which only suggested, but did not suggest these patriotic self-seeking nominees, (who in some cases wanted the assembly endorsement for themselves) as suit able and true Republicans for the re spective places on the ticket at the primary election. There Is at this time a need of con cession on the part of all true Re publicans, as the free for all fight now In progress. In the rush for nomina tions Is fostered and urged on by the Democrats or other enemies of the Republican Party, who laugh In their sleeves at the trouble It Is causing and are urging the weakest men, who they know cannot possibly be nomi nated, to stay In the race, for the pur pose of causing as much dlsseuslon aa poslble, whereby Democrats can only be the gainer and hope to land some of the biggest offices In their own camp. I would suggest to each candidate nt this time the advisability of being conservative, as whoever is nominated at the primary election will probably need all the Republican votes he can get at the November election, as the populist Ic ride or ruin element say they will support none but their own candidates and will vote for no as sembly candidate which lands such men in the Democrat or popullstic ranks wnere they doubtless belong. I will say In closing, if you are a Republican voter stay by the recom mendation of your party if he Is a good man, if not, vote for someone else for the nomination, get together have an assembly and show that you appre ciate the rights handed down by our Revolutionary Forefathers. Have as semblies, religious, political or sec tarian and remember, that any man or set of men who would take away the right of public assembly and free discussion, is trying to take away the (Continued onpage4.)
