He treated the condition of the Repub lican party and took Isaue with the ar gument being made that the decline of ita power waa the result of the direct primary law or of Statement No. 1. He contended that the primary law was the result of old conditions which had sickened the voters of the state of the men who controlled politics and of the officials whom these men put Into power. Because of these corrupt poli cies and conditions the people of the state had arisen and adopted the pri mary law. The speaker contended that while there were Imperfections in the primary law the party should correct these faults througn the legislature and live up to the letter and spirit of the statute which had been called for and waa sup ported by the great masses of the peo ple, ine voters 01 tne state nud de manded Statement No. 1, and had done so in order to give as near as possiblo the direct election of United States senators.
