T- ADRAS RAPING 1 LOMPANY FOR THE BEST GOODS AT LOWEST PRICES The Madras Trading Co. MADRAS, OREGON TAFT IS FOR PRIMARIES He Hai Nothing to Fear From Popular Vote. Tho Roosevelt campaign Is making a strong bid for popularity by claiming that their side alone wants 'a popular expression on the Presidential candi dacy. This contention is not well founded however, for there Iido known Instance where President Taft has opposed the Presidential prefer ence idea, and he has always been will ing to trust bis own fortunes with the people. He refused to advise the Republican National Commlttoe what attitude to take upon this question and he even let It be known that he was willing to meet his opponents in any presidential primary where the voters would bo sure of a fair yota and a fair count. Opposition to the primary in the Taft campaign is only based upon the ab sence of a law authorizing tho primary in many states and the lack of any legal provision for the payment of expenses. As the campaign develops, it ap pears that tho more presidential pri maries are held, the better It will be for Mr. Taft. This condition is now being generally recognized through' out Now England. The Massachusetts situation is one rathor favorablo to tho administration. Report from that stato are to the effect that Roosevelt killed himself by his Columbus speech. It was thought he would give Taft a strong fight in Massachusetts, but now U la doubted If be will get even a delegate. The Taft campaign managers are not concerned because the Massachus etts legislature haa paued a presiden tial preference law. "H.tW J CHURCHES Methodist Episcopal. Sunday, April 14th-10 A. M.
