Senator Abraham arrived from Port land by the 1 p. m. train. While In Portland he conducted a vigorous campaign from an automo bile, visiting most of the suburbs and opeaklng every ulght at prominent 1 down-town streets. Saturday night he spoke at Astoria, addressing both the lishermeu and an open-air street meeting. While lie Is nu anti-assembly candi date, Senator Abraham says he be lieves In primary organization. He says he thinks the ideas of the assem bly are right but that It went about matters In the wrong way. He Is supporting a proposed amendment to the Direct Primary law. I his amendment is based on the Hughes plan. I5y Its provisions j at the primaries, the people will elect committees, which are large j and representative, and the members 1 of w hich go on the ballot by petition. At some time before the ensuing primary, these committees meet und ! "designate" candidates for each , otlic. Candidates so "designated" go on the ballot without the neces-1 sity of circulating petitions. Other j candidates are not however pre- i vented from circulating petitions and so going ou the ballot. At the primary the people are then able to consolidate on the candidate they 1 support and may afterwards elect i him at the gederal election. ' "Hy this plan," suld Senator Abra- j ham, "you have government by the people through the party. I believe the people should rule but I am a ! firm liellever In the necessity of party , organization. Without the Hughes plan we cannot have this organlza-1 Hon, yet by directly appointing i their representatives, the people are) In control the whole time." j man lines and W, C.

Clarke (or State Printer If State Printer Punlway has made a saving to the taxpayers of the state of $4,IHH) In three years why does he not show It by tacts and figures? All this great saving Is credited to utterances by the state press through articles probably writ ten or Inspired by the state printer himself. lu fact, all such savings were made by the secretary of state under conditions over which Ihinl way had no control. The figures quoted by William J. Clarke, the lie publlcnn, Hat salary candidate, who stands alone as pledged to this great reform, are taken from the records lu the sec rtary of state's olflce.
