10 THE MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, DECEMBER 28, 1903. , NO MORE PRIMARIES Direct Nominating League Would Adopt New Plan. PETITION IS BEING PREPARED Advocates of the Proposed Change Would Abolish Political Party Conventions by People Nam ing Office Candidates. In view of the decision of the courts upon the Initiative and referendum amendment to the Constitution of Ore gon, the promoters of the Direct Nom inating League are getting busy, prepar ing several proposed amendments to be placed before the public through the ini tiative method. -- first Importance among these proposed laws Is the direct primary nominations law, designed to do away "with county conventions, and permit the direct nomination of city and county of ficials at the primaries. Tne organiza tion of this league was set on foot short ly after the initiative and referendum amendment was passed. But owing to the adverse decisions of the lower courts, the organization was checked. Now, nothing stands in the way, and a meeting is to be called early In the new year for the purpose of completing the organiza tion. The bill containing the amendments de sired is now In the hands of tne printers, and a petition Is being circulated for the purpose of securing signatures of a suf ficient number of voters to satisfy the requirements of the Initiative method of enacting a law. It Is believed that the necessary eight per cent of voters will be easily secured and the direct primary nominations law placed before the people at the June election. It is also believed that the law will meet with favor among the people. As soon as the Initiative and referen dum amendment was adopted, the propo sition to form a league for the purpose of securing the passage of certain laws under the amendment, was agitated. The result was the following petition or agree ment, which has been sent out for sig natures: We, the undersigned, hereby agree to and with each other, this agreement to take effect when 200 or more members shall have signed the same, that we will unite in fonnlhir a league for the purpose of preparing and pro posing to the people of Oregon, by initiative petition, at the general election in June, 1901, such measures on the following subjects as may be agreed upon by a majority of the members of the league: Jl DIRECT PRIMARY NOMINATION LAW. Submitting to the people Senate joint resolu tion No. 2 of the Legislative Assembly of 1301, amending section 2 of article 11, of the constitution of Oregon in such form aa to jglve cities the power to make their own char ters and amendments thereto, and which pro posed amendment was approved by the Legis lative Assembly of 1003, but was not submitted to the people; An amendment to the constitution of Oregon amending section 28 of article 4 in such form as to prevent the Legislative Assembly from attaching the emergency clause to any acts except such as are necessary for the Immedi ate preservation of the public peace, health or safety; An amendment to the constitution of Oregon amending section 15 of article 6 In such form as to extend the veto power of the Governor and the referendum power of the people over single Items or sections of any appropriation or other bill, except appropriations for salaries of state officers and maintenance of state In stitutions at the capital; An amendment to section 1 of article 13 of the constitution of Oregon to allow the salaries of state officers to be increased, or decreased by law. n The league shall be named. Its rules and regulations shall be made, and Its officers shall be elected by the members when Its member ship is complete. "We further agree to and with each other that we will each contribute and pay to the treasurer of the league our pro rata propor tion of the amount of money, not exceeding $10 each, or the aggregate of the sum of $2000, that may be necessary to pay expenses of preparing, submitting to the people and ad ocatlng the measures that may be agreed upon by the league.

Harding " George C Brownell Of the three proposed amendments that will be put before the voters, the one af fecting the method of election, Is, pos sibly, of the greatest importance. It con templates a radical change In the present svstem. Instead of the present method, through which delegates are selected at the primaries to attend city and county conventions for the purpose of nominat ing city and county officers, a more brief plan Is proposed. The county and city conventions are to be abolished. Under the proposed law the city and county officers will be nominated in the pri maries, without the further necessity of a convention. Under the initiative and referendum amendment a law may be enacted or the constitution of the state can be amended by the people without waiting for the action of the Legislature. The require ments to get a proposed law or amend ment before the people under this amend, ment are that the names of 8 per cent of the voters be obtained to a petition for such a law, then this petition and a copy of the bill must be filed with the Secre tary of State before the election at which it Is to be voted upon. By this means the people have a voice regardless of the Legislature and the supporters of the amendment believe that It gives them a more liberal form of government SAFELY 0VEB SUBMARINE MINE German Mail Liner's Narrow Escape at Singapore. VICTORIA, B. C. Dec. 27. Steamer Bhinano Maru, which arrived today from Chinese and Japanese ports, brought a remarkable story from Singapore, which Is vouched for by Shanghai papers, of the narrow escape of the German mall liner Prinz Heinrich from being blown up by a submarine mine. When the steamer was leaving Slnga- ' pore, during tne early part of November, a iteam launch with a large party of British naval officers on board steamed toward her and the British naval men shouted excitedly: "You are In great danger, right before you Is a submarine mine. For God's sake go astern, full speed." Captain Helntzer realizing that his ves sel had too much way to stop quickly steamed ahead hoping to get over the danger spot. Suddenly the najpe exploded about two lengths astern with a tremtm dous roar, throwing up the water with, a great splash. 0BEG0IT IS FAB BEHIND. Less Than Eight Mile of New Track Laid in 1903. An advance proof from the Railway Age relative to railroad construction dur ing the year of 1303, contains the infor mation that the new mileage constructed during the year, regardless of unfavorable conditions, is in excess of that for the year previous. The exact Increase is not given as all reports have not been re ceived yet, but It promises to be a good figure. Oregon has maUe a showing of 30.15 miles on seven, lines. The total new mileage In 43 states and territories on 3S0 lines, is 5723.45 miles. The article states that during the early months of the year, railroad construction gained such an impetus that It was pre dicted that the Increase over the previous year would be at least 1000 miles. But while this activity was at Its height,, the labor situation became alarming, strikes ensued and demands for higher wage? caused a halt. When these troubles arose 500 miles of new road were under contract, l but much of the work was stopped. Hardly had these drawbacks be gun to show signs of leaving when clouds of, financial distress began to show and another halt was called. The article states that the upheaval in Wall street did not affect the real value of railroad securities, for the country at large was prosperous almost to a degree never experienced before and the roads had all the traffic they could handle. This has been the cry of the various lines for months. Freight has been moving as fast as it could be bandied by the roads, and In many instances the shipments could not be handled with dispatch. This difficulty has been particularly felt In Ore gon In the form of car shortage. Further north it has been felt In the lumber Inter ests. Lumber has been moving eastward at a rapid pace. In fact toorapid to suit the railroads. The Eastern movement has overbalanced the return freight, and the railway men have been kept at their wits' end to supply sufficient cars for the lum ber without hauling empty ones across the continent to fill the demand. On account of these set-backs to rail road building it was feared for a time that the mileage of new roads would not come up to the mark registered In 1902. These fears have proved to be groundless, and the surprise is a pleasant one. Had It not been for the stringency in the money market, the record for this year would undoubtedly have been far greater than It is. But In cases where money for construction work had to be raised by the floating of bonds, matters had of neces sity, to be let alone. When bonds "are the source of funds, Wall street becomes a necessity and the action of railroad men In keeping away with their propositions was a wise one. The showing, however, is very satisfactory, as it Is. In the North western States the new mileage amounts to 620.71 miles. RAILROAD PROSPECTS PLEASING Little Fear of Presidential Year Stringency in Northwest. ? Reports by special' correspondence" from New York, relative to business conditions of the railroads of the Northwest, and to the effect that the prospects are far more pleasing now than they have been ior a iew weens past. The slump in busi ness that has caused decreases on the Northern Pacific, Great Northern and other lines, appears to be rectifying it self and the general movement of mer chandise Is picking up at a rapid rate. The temporary check on business is at tributed to uneasiness growing out of condltons on Wall street, and as these conditions no longer give cause for alarm, there is no fear for the Immediate fu ture. The officials of the Northern Pacific, Great Northern ana other lines in the Noruiwest report about the same trade conditions. There is some of the usual caution that always marks a Presiden tial year, but It Is less marked than usual. This is neatly explained by one promi nent official of the Northern Pacific by the statement that there are no issues hanging on this campaign that have di rect and vital importance to trade and industry that lay in the question of sil ver and the issues that have made the platforms of the parties In previous elec tions. The fear of a Presidential year Is this time more sentimental than real. It Is almost entirely legendary, and the solid common sense of the Northwestern communities is about the least likely to be disturbed very deeply over any such cauftp. It will doubtless disturb In some measure the business of that territory, but if the local demand continues in the present volume throughout the year busi ness Is going to be about normal. Burlington, which has fared best of the Hill lines throughout the Aatumn, now reports that the capacity of the line is about utilized to the full right along. There Is not the great surplus of freight that existed last year, and, moreover, the lessons in economical loading and full use of power -at came after the almost total paralysis of -.e road last year dur ing the congested season, are helping the road to handle the freight quickly, and with greater economy than ever before In its history. Relative the the lumber situation of the Northwest, the report says that there Is little hope that the lumbermen will get all the cars they want. It is said that Mr. Hill will do his best on this score, because of the appeal of the shjp pers to the Canadian Pacific for aid in the car matter. The Harriman people have helped the situation by looking after the lumber interests of Oregon. The Hill people do not seem to object to Harri man lines loading lumber in the district of the former lines. This "Invasion" Is one of peace. It -Is pointed out that by the building of a line up the Snake River Valley to a connection with the Northern Pacific Mr. Harriman would give to these shippers practically a third outlet for their lumber. The public, of course, is strongly opposed to any kind of a treaty between these two great interests, but the shippers are clamoring for means to get their lumber out. Between the two, the "dollars and cents" argument behind the proposition for the new line is like ly to overcome In the end the sentimental argument against the alliance of Hill and Harriman. This is a new phase of what Mr. Hill calls the "education of the Great Northwest." AMERICANS IN GREAT FAVOR. London Stock Exchange Business Was Otherwise Dull. LONDON. Dec 27. What little bus iness was transacted on the Stock Ex-' change last week was completely dom inated by the -varying phases of the Far Eastern situation. Japanese securities were severely depressed at the beginning of the week, but became steadier when It was seen that the negotiations be tween Russia and Japan were likely to continue. Depression, however, was rather general, and was only resisted by the American market. The Statist calls attention t the fact that good American bonds are growing in favor all over Europe, and adds: "If the highest class of such bonds fell sufficiently in price to yield i per cent, buying would be on an unprecedentedly large scale. As It is, there have been lately immense purchases both of bonds and shares by French, German and other Continental investors." lie Quick.

Rev. J. F. Ghormley delivered his fare well sermon as pastor of the First Chris tian Church of Portland yesterday morn ing. A large congregation was present, and many expressions of regret were heard after the sermon of the proposed departure of Dr. Ghormley tomorrow for California. Miss Katherlne Linnehan had prepared a special musical programme, which was well rendered "by the large chorus choir. "Victory Through Faith" was the sub ject of Dr. Ghormley's discourse, taken from 1st Cor. xv:5S, aqd 1st Paul v:7, in which the characters of Paul and John PREACHES HIS FAREWELL SERMON REV. J. F. were contrasted. "Paul," he said, "was the embodiment of logic John, that loving and gentle one, who leaned upon the Mas- ter's breast. Both ascribed final victory to the same great source. Christianity Is aggressive. It makes no compromise with any other religion upon the earth Faith Is victory.

Paul endeavored to Illus trate It by the grain of wheat which the sower cast Into the ground. There was the undying principle in the grain, which, when its former body had decayed, de veloped for itself a new one. There is a principle in man, the soul, which never dies. When the golden bowl and the pitcher are broken at the fountain, the declaration Is that the dust shall return to the earth as It was and the spirit return unto God who gave It.

Such a. guarantee Woodard. Clarke & Co. offer to every such person in this icty, without any such sacrifice. Read Their Offer. "We hereby guarantee that our famous cod liver oil preparation, Vinol, will re store to health all pale and ailing women and children, build up the run-down, over worked and debilitated, give strenth to tired, weak mothers. Invigorate old peo ple, cure hanging-on colds and "hacking coughs, bronchitis and stomach troubles, restore strength and make rich, red blood for the convalescent, create appetite and cure nervousness and Irritability. If there should be any case of failure, we agree to refund the money for the Vinol taken. Is there an ailing person in Portland who is not willing to accept our generous proposition?" When asked how they could do this by a reporter of The Oregonian, Mr. Woodard replied: "It Is because we know so well of what Vinol Is made,. and have seen such wonderful results from Its use, that we are willing to back it with all we have." You see, Vinol contains every one of the active, curative principles contained In cod liver oil, but without a drop of grease to retard Its work; It Is a scientific re builder and strength creator, and will In a marvellous manner restore the sick to health and make life worth living.
