The Oregonlan has the aid and cooperation of a number of the workers In the old Simon faction, of the Republican party, and if current reports are to be believed Jack Matthews, the one-time boss of local politics, is also sctively engaged in the 'fight.

But as the campaign progresses, .some of the Republican op ponents of the direct-primary law be came alarmed over 'the strength of the popular sentiment In favor of the law and of the principle embodied In state ment No. 1. It is said that aome of them finally wrote to Matthew urging nlm to return and aid them in the,' fight,.' ever aince nis return aiattnaw nas been professing that he is "out of-pol-Itcs" and that he will- take no part In the campaign except to "help some of hla friends'' who are randldatea. , There are strong reasons to believe that these professions are untrue. Matthew Is o. utterly discredited that he 1 forced to work under cover. The participation of the old Simon faction of the Republican party I ap parent from a study of ths llat of can didates who have filed a modified form of . statement : No. 1, pledging them selves only to vote for that Republican who receives ths highest popular vote in June. Fifteen oandldatea for repre sentative - havs- given - thl modified pledge. Eleven of the fifteen are Simon Republicans. These 11 candidates give identically ths same pledge, which is also Identical with the pledge given by S. C Beach, candidate for state sen ator and one of the leaders In ths old Simon organisation. : Anti-Boum right Ss On.' " - Of ths St legislative candidates who signed statement No. 1, pledging them eelv4 unqualifiedly to vote for the peo ple's choice for United States senator, It have been mads the object of es pecial attack on the ground that they are favorable to ths candidacy of, Jona than Bourne. A great effort is being mads to units' the remaining candidates, whatever their view as to statement No. 1, in opposition to what Is termed the "Bourns slate." A partial organi sation baa been formed, which is termed ths Independent candidates," and tZ names are on the list of members. Ths llat includes every one of ths Simon Re publicans who modified statement No. 1, five candidates who signed statement No. 1 without qualification and two who gave no pledge whatever on this sub ject . . Now ths problem which Is perplexing ths "Independents" 1: How -n ig nominations be mads to go round among 12 candldateat Ths question 1 peculiar ly embarrassing, for some of ths 22 as pirants are Insistently demanding the inaoraemeni ootn or ins uregonlan and of ths aggregation of ward workers known as ths "Mag Cohen Republican olub." Elmer B. Col well and A. R. Fer rers, who ar credited - with having formed a coalition to further one an other's Interests, will undoubtedly re ceive ths club's Indorsement, as Fer rers is one of it loading lights. Charles Cleveland and S. II. . Gruber, Moth of whom modified statement No, 1, are said to have been assured of ths club's Indorsement The word haa been passed down 'the line that Matthewa expects to uss ths club as a means of effective precinct organisation in the fight agalnat ths statement No. 1 candidates. - . Cant Drop Bailey. A. A. Bailey signed statement No. 1, doubtless realising that without doing so h would have no chance of support from the labor unions, wbose vote elected biro In the last -two campaigns. Hs waa useful both to Jack Matthews and ths Oregonlan in the legislature and will therefore probably- bo backed by ths conspirators for nomination. But it Is doubtful whether they will give thelr support to any a other candidate who ba subscribed to 'statement No. 1, Ths rest will probably be quietly ditched as soon ss the time Is ripe. So far as other lasues are concerned, there appears to b little difference be tween the views of the eandldatea The one Important point - on . which they differ Is whether or not they, will ob serve the will of ths people In electing the next United States senator. Every subscriber to. statement No. 1, whether a "Bourne candidate" or not, is. un equivocally pledged- to voto for -the people's choice. If. the people vote In June for some candidate other than Bourne, that candidate must receive the vote of every legislator who signed statement No. 1, whether the legislator wa or wa not on the Bourns elate.
