Formal Call Issued.
In issuing a formal call of the
meeting: Chairman Tooze made the
following comment:
"The purpose of this gathering of
leading republicans from all parts
of the state is to draft a definite
statement of principles upon which
our party may go before the people
in the ensuing campaign. Certainly
the people will welcome a statement
of what we propose to do if our
party is continued in. power in the
state in the executive and legisla
tive branches. We are not Invading
the province of the direct primary
in the slightest degree and do not
propose to.
"We simply wish to state collec
tively what individually most of our
nominees have already stated, and
to state the same in such manner
that the people may know what we
stand for. The authorized delegates
to the meeting have been selected,
as has the resolutions committee, i
with a view to avoiding any charge
that they have been hand picked,
and I challenge any man in the state
to dispute successfully that the men
in question represent the very best,
thought and highest ideals of the
people of this state.
Purpose Is Threefold.
"The purposes of the meeting are
threefold: To help further our ef
forts to reunite and rebuild the re
publican party in Oregon, and to
arouse the. people of the state to
give more attention to their great
peace-time duty of citizenship; to
provide the people of the state with
a party responsibility In legislative
and administrative affairs .instead of
an individual- responsibility, and
finally, to draw the attention of the
people to the real governmental
problems before us, and thus keep
Oregon's political life free from
false issues and questions which can
serve only to divide our people hope
lessly into factions, cliques and
classes.
. "The meeting in Portland is not
an endeavor to undermine the pri
mary or any other law, and is not a
movement on the part of any par
ticular element pf the republican
party. It is a progressive step
taKen aner lull conference and dis
cussion in every county in Oregon,
and to meet a general demand upon
the part of the people for a return
in a measure to a party responsibil
ity instead of an Individual respon
sibility; a return to the rule of the
statesman instead of the rule of the
demagogue. For 15 years, legisla
tive candidates In this state have
been promising a reduction of taxes,
a consolidation of commissions, and
any number of other things designed
to relieve the burden of the tax
payer. They have been prompted by
the best intentions in the world, yet
they lacked unity and collective re
sponsibility, and instead of decreas
ing taxation, taxes have mounted
skyward, a.nd commissions have in
creased." llotel Clerk and Guest Kobbed.
OLYMPIA. Wash., Sept. 12. (Spe
cial.) John Mcintosh, a guest, and
George Diamond, clerk, at the Carl
ton hotel, were held up in the lobby
of the hotel early Monday morning
and relieved of money and valu
ables. Diamond lost $20 in cash, a
watch and chain and an emblem of
the Fraternal Order of Eagles, while
Mcintosh parted with J70 and a
watch and chain. In their excite
ment neither of the men could tell
whether or not the holdup man was
masked.
