RALLY TO SIGNAL
REUN1DN0F PARTY
Republican Leaders to Join
Mr. Bowerman as Speak
ers at Salem Meeting.
MALARKEY GIVES SUPPORT
'ProjrrrssWe Leader Declares At
tack on Ticket Nominated by
People to Blow at Direct
Primary Uir.
Dan J. llalarkor. Republican candi
late for Joint State Senator and "pro
gressive" leader in the ante-primary cam
paign. accepted an Invitation yesterday
to apeak at Salem Saturday night when
She reunited Republican leaders are to
appear on one lpatform. The principal
ipeaker will be Jay Bowerman. Republi
can candidate for Governor. His
stronirrst contestants in the primary
campaign. Grant B. Dimick. E. Hofer
and Alhert Abraham will likewise peak.
ilr. Malarkey. who has just returned
from a trip to Pucet Sound and British
Columbia, xuid yesterday that it was hia
firm intention to stand by and work for
the election of Mr. Bowerman as Repub
lican nominee for Governor. f
Malarkey Loyal to Ticket.
I certainly am going; to support Mr.
Bowerman.' mid Mr. Malarkey in dis
cussing l ho present political situation.
"I ard not participate In the late primary
rlection. eithvr as a voter or a candidate,
with my fingers crossed. or did I re
gard it as a game of 'heads I win. tails
you lose.' Unless those who participate
therein abide by the reoult. a primary
election of and within a political parly
under the direct primary law serves no
good purpose and is a mere waste oX
time and effort.
"One of the main objections to the old
convention plan of nominating cundi
4ars waa that through 'framcups and
state's and manipulation of delegates- by
unscrupulous and self-vcking political
bosses, the candidates named by the con
vention were rarely the real choice of
Die rank and tile of the party; and that
luch methods occasioned, and frequently
Justified the opposition to such nominees
of many members of the party.
Safeguards Are Ample.
"To overcome thce objections the
direct primary law was enacted. Under
It any member of a party can with little
trouble become a candidate for. nomina
tion, and the candidate who receives the
most votes In the big convention held on
primary election day in which all the
members of the party participate with
equal voice and equal Influence under
tlie safeguards of the Australian ballot
system and the registration law becomes
tlie nominee of the party. Under the
system no loyal Republican can consist
ently oppose one who has been so chosen
as the nominee of his party.
"Mr. Bowerman complied with the
direct primary law In becoming a candi
date (or the Republican nomination for
tiovrrnor In that he tiled a sufficiently
stcned petition In reguLar form with the
proper official and otherwise did every
thing required by that law. The pri
mary election was regularly held and
fairly conducted. No one contends that
It was tainted by fraud or corruption.
Notwithstanding the handicap of an as
sembly Indorsement. Mr. Bowerman re
ceived the, most votes for Governor in
that election and bvcam the lawful
nominee of the Republican party in the
only way that any other candidate for
any other nomination became such a
nominee. I opposed his nomination. I
voted against him In the primary elec
tion. But I bow to the will of the rank
and file of the Republican party as ex
pressed by the verdict of the ballot box.
The Republicans) have expressed their
will They have selected a Rpublican
tick A of which Mr. Bowerman Is the
head. He is Just as surely and legally
and rightfully the nominee of the party
as jn I or any other Republican who at
the primary election received a plurality
cf the votea cast for the nomination
sought.
Party Will Expressed.
"It is said by those who would now
have anti-assembly Republicans oppose
Mr. Bowerman that he was not the choice
of a majority of the members of the
party. Neither was Mr. Lafferty. who
was nominated for Congress in this dis
trict, nor Mr. Weinberger, who was nom
inated for Constable in this city., the
choice of a majority of the Republican
who voted for candidates for those nomi
nations. Neither was Jonathan Bourne
the choice of a majority of the Repub
licans when in 190. by a smaller plural
Ity than Mr. Bowerman has obtained, he
became the Republican nominee for
Vnlted States Senator. Because the car
dinal principle of my political creed Is
that the will of the. people when delib
erately expressed is supreme and that
applies to contests within the party for
nomination am much as to contests in tne
general election between candidates of
rival parties I voted for Mr. Bourne for
I'ntted States Senator when I was .
member of the State Senate In 1D07. I
accepted the verdict of the voters, not
withstanding the fact that I was elected
to the State Senate before our direct pri
mary law. with its Statement No. 1 fea
ture, was adopted, and was under no ante
election obligation so to do, and notwith
standing the further fact that I opposed
Mr. Bourne's nomination and would ccr
talntly never have voted for him for
United States Sonaftr If 1 had not felt
It my duty to obey the popular mandate.
Though I opposed Mr. Bowerman's nomi
nation. I ran certainly obey the popular
mandate In this instance by supporting
him for Governor more cheerfully and
with more confidence that he will prove
a good and worthy official than. I did
when I so voted for Mr. Bourne.
Ijivt Provides for Pluralities.
"Under our present laws pluralities
must decide both In primary elections and
general elections. If the election of Sep
tember 14 had been a general election
and Mr. Bowerman and bis three oppo
nents had been candidates for election In
stead of for comlnation and the vote had
been the same, he would certainly have
been elected Governor and as such have
been entitled to the same deference and
respect as If he had received nine-tenths
f all the votes cast. No .more can It be
claimed that he now is the less entitled to
the same consideration at the hands of
Republican votera at the general election
than he would have been entitled to had
he received nine-tenths of all the votes
cast In the recent primary election.
"If we want to get away from plurality
nominations and plurality elections, we
must do it by incorporating into our elec
tion haws some voters' second choice pro
visions such as they have In Washington
and Idaho and other spates, and I am In
clined to think that such a provision
would be a wise one.
"I became a candidate for State Sen
ator and took an active part in the
primary campaign because I believed
that the assembly movement waa in ,
violation of the letter and spirit of
the direct primary law. I still so be
lieve and shall continue to do all in
my power to preserve the direct pri
mary law In Its Integrity. But there
are other ways than through assemblies
that the direct primary law can be as
sailed and be weakened, and to my
tnlnd the friends of the direct primary
law are furnishing; ammunition to Its
enemies when they become parties to
a deliberate and concerted effort to
defeat one who was regularly nom
inated under that law because they
did not Indorse his candidacy or ap
prove his nomination. And it is be
cause I feel that the merits of the dl
rect primary law are now being teste
that I shall do all In my power to se
cure Mr. Bowerman's election.
Bowerman's Assurance Enough.
"Mr. Bowerman has in an open letter
given the most positive assurance thaf
he will. If he is elected, veto any bill
passed by the Legislature Intended or
calculated to weaken or cripple tne
direct primary law or even to add to
or change It In any particular, and no
one could ask more in that regard. So
far as Statement No. 1 is concerned Mr.
Bowerman as a State Senator voted
for Mr. Bourne in 1907 under the same
circumstances that I did, and Mr. Bow
erman and everyone else know that
Statement No. 1 Is here to stay and that
the people will not tolerate any inter
ference therewith.
"I shall be sorry if my attitude
this respect gives offense to any of
my friends or displeases any of my
supporters in the late primary election
but I feel it Is clearly my duty as
Republican and as a true friend of th
direct primary law to give my hearty
support to Mr. Bowerman as tne nom
lnee of the Republican party for .Gov
ernor of this state. The Republican
party must be kept together and not
be disrupted for the- benefit of those
who seek political profit and prefer
ment by such disruption. The Republi
can party gave the people of this state
the Initiative and referendum ana in
direct primary law and Statement No.
1. and will, in my opinion, continue to
be In the future, as It has been in th
past, the party of progress and achieve
ment,
"In answer to the argument that an
assembly was desirable to secure party
organization and a united party back
of its nominees, I repeatedly urged.
durlna- the primary campaign, that so
called party organization in behalf of
one Reiahblican aspirant for a nomina
tion against another was Improper and
un-Republican. and that the ume lor
party organization waa after the party
had In a fair and open direct primary
nominated its candidates. That 'time
has arrived and all good Republicans
should now get together and present a
united front to a common enemy ana
carry to victory at the polls on No
vember 8 the men who have so become
the candidates of their party.
PRECIXCT VOTE QCESTIOXED
Flection Judie Acts as Notary and
County Clerk liaises Issue.
Because G. A. Tufts, a Judge of the
election board In Precinct 23, erroneously
swore In 39 votera in his capacity as
notary public Instead of aa Judge of the
board. County Clerk Fields advanced the
theory yesterday that the votes are in
valid. The 30 votes were not discovered
until after the official election
turns had been forwarded to the
Secretary of State. Mr. t lelds be
lieve-, however, that should the election
be contested, it would be necessary to
throw out the entire vote In Precinct Z3.
Others '-take a different view, as
there appears to be no evidence of
fraudulent Intent on the part of the
voters, the mistake, in fact, being that
of Tufts as an election Judge. Tufts is
lawyer having an omce at ju?s
Washington street. The names of those
who voted without being legally sworn

MAILING DEPOT NOT OPF'OSED
George W. Joseph Explains Attitude)
Toward Proposed Site.
George W. Joseph, Republican nomi
nee for state senator, in an interview
last nlirht. said that he had not at
any time protested against Block "S"
as the site recommended to the Post
office Department for the proposed
mailing depot.
'When the matter was nrst orougnt
to my attention, I became Interested In
ascertaining whether the building was
to be a mailing depot or an ordinary
building where deliveries were made
direct to the people," said Mr. Joseph.
"When I saw Mr. Hill, the agent
selected by President Taft to choose
the site, he did not care to give out
any information. However, when I
satisfied myself that the new building
was to be a mailing depot, I came to
the conclusion that Block "S" was as
good a location as could be found, con
sidering the price and the trackage
facilities. I became interested in the
subject from a purely personal stand
point and not in the Interest of any
merchant or other individuals. I had
knowledge when the option on the
property would expire and knew that
immediate action was necessary to se
cure the property at the price, of $325.
000. "With the mailing depot as an auxili
ary In disposing of the large volume
of buslnees dally. Portland should have
as good a service as any city In the
country."

LOS AXGELE3, Cal., Oct. S. (Spe

Berry leaves for the East Tuesday,
ostensibly to witness the world's series.
"To endeavor to brinfc these negotia
tions to a successful termination Is the
real object of my trip East," said Berry
today. "If I am successful, we will
have a club next season that will
make the others get into their high
speed, and enable us to make a strong
bid for th pennant. I expect to be
able to meet in Philadelphia and Chi
