T I i also struggling to get free from machine bosses, and to gain the power of selecting their own V public servants, and of making or , vetoing needed laws by means of . the initiative and referendum; and there, as here, only more outspoken f ; ly, there is a great protest of party ' organs against the "destruction of representative government." The governor recommended the ' selection of delegates to the national convntions by direct vote of the people, and the party organs are v condemning him as little less than an anarchist. Such a method, they , , say, would be prejudicial to If not , : destructive of party organization and what would the dear politicians ' do without political machines to V work with? One organ walls: . "Ton are going to take the choice .f delegates from the party organ- ; ' lration and give It to the dlsorgan lied electorate." Terrible! that the L 'disorganised" people should really at last have a voice, and a vote, and actually decide, as to who should '-, represent them in national conven- , tlons. Instead of turning that busl r ness over, as heretofore, to the United States senators and a few bosses. Under such a "disorganized" " method, how Indeed can a grafting ' and corrupting party machine get in j its work? But, as the Detroit News . Bays, the party is not destroyed be '. cause the voters take the party's . business out of the bosses' hands, and it continues: Mistaking the party organization for the party, and a few selfish bosses lor the "organization," the machine Interests bewail the consequent loss : , Of power to name delegates and to con '" trol nominations. A blow struck at their peculiar office and at their manipula tions, In their opinion, la a blow struck at the party. Who but the rank and . file of the party have the right to choose national1 delegates, and in .what sense would a law permitting them to vote dl- . rect without the interposition of county and state conventions menace the right of the rank and file, upset their or ganisation, or Interfere with their tra . dltlons? The choice of delegates should. In--: Heed, be the party's exclusive privilege, not the exclusive privilege of tbe ma- - chine bosses in convention. Sclf-con- atltuted bosses who have mistaken themselves for the party may well qulrm at this menace to their sacred privileges, and their organs may well r whimper their protests against the promised confusion of their political plans by the entry of the rank and file of the party upon the scene as direct ; voters. - , In Oregon next year, a convention will have to name delegates to the national conventions, but thereafter the people would better take that business into their own bands also. Wo are beginning to hear the same "whimpering" and see the same viqulrming" here that the News mentions as manifest in Michigan; bat the rank and file of voters can rest assured that it comes from those who want to become bosses and run machine, in their own Interest and to the people's hurt. and worms so essential to the pheas- methods. ant ration. The vegetable foods likewise are especially auited to them.

Is he blind to the facts that they see, or to the fact that they see them? Or does he speak ironically, and with sar donic humor. In suggesting that they appeal to the courts and the interstate commerce commission to give the railroads, and Harriman in particular, fair treatment? "The railroads," Mr. Harriman says, "are suffering from unjust agitation of questions unrairiy presented, and from the enforcement of unjust and discriminative laws." Is this the voice of blinding egotism, or of taunting defiance? a There I. no "unjust agitation." The people', grievances, at least out in this part of the country and es pecially in Mr. Harriman'. exclusive domain, are very real. Urgently needed line, of railroad not built; shortage of cars, year after year and growing worse every year; great areas kept from development by lack of railroads, and region, traversed by roads poorly served; rate, arbi trarily raised, paralyzing important Industrie, and doing hundrecfb of thousands of dollars' worth of dam ages; millions of acre, of land held contrary to law for decade., retard ing settlement and development; mil lions of money earned ln Oregon dl verted to speculative or fighting uses in other states; promises made only to be broken; and now a pre tense that money is scarce thoogh the Harriman roads are earning nv amounts oi net profits and div idendsthese are plain facts, not unjust agitation."
