He showed from th history of th party since It birth that it haa been In harmony with th beat Interest of th people. 'The policies of Rooaevelt are In di rect harmony wun tne intereeta oi tnia state.'' he said, and he referred spe cially to th reclamation policy, which means much to Oregon. He also In dorsed th policy of th president on the Imnrovemant of Interior waterways. the forest reserves and th control of transportation Unas and coroora tlons. He said It waa for the beat lntereate of Oregon that th Republican party be maintained in power. People Semaad Street Aetloa. Mr. Cako took uo tha popular election of senatora and urged that the people ar In favor of th election of senator by the people. "Thl I shown by th art of con- greis and of the atate legislatures," he said, "th reasons for th demand for th election by ui people instead or ths lealslature are that lh tone of th senate will b Improved, there will be freedom from corporate lnfluences,.'and senators will respond to the wishes of the people and be In greater sympathy with them than under th present sys tem.

He pledged himself, If elected to th United States senate, to work unceasingly for an amendment to the constitution of the United States Providing for tha election of aenatora y th people. Partle Btlll JTecessary. He believes that partlca must be pre- eerved and that party fealty la neces sary for the promoting of good gov ernment, purity In office and harmony In public office, but the primary law should be maintained becaune the nomi nation of candidates for office by th people tends to do away with machine politics and promotes the efficiency of Subiio service dv matting an oniciais Irectly responsible to the people for their oonduct. He showed that whereas under the old method of electing United States sena tors the state was sublected to the dis grace of legislative deadlocks, fraud and corruption of the members of the leg islature, under the regime of Statement No. 1 all the evil effects of the former method would be avoided and the time of the legislators would be spent In the making of needed laws. Mr. Cake further believes In State ment No. 1 because he is in favor of the election of United 8tates senators by direct vote of the people, and until th constitution of the United States is bo amended to bring about that method. Statement No. 1 Indirectly brings about the same result. Believing that th will of the people should be supreme, Mr. Cake believes that the candidate who receives the largest number of Votes should be elected United State ena tor by the legislature regardless Of hi party am nations.

He referred to the hold-up legislature In this state In 1897 and styled Jt "th most disgrace ful state assembly In tha history of tha United States." He said if tnia meas ure were followed United States sena tors would be elected in 60 minutes. Instead of 60 days, or perhaps not -at all. He called attention to th fact that 82 of the states had already asked for an amendment to the constitution of the United States which would permit the election of United States senators by direct vote of th people, th same as representatives tn congress, but al though passed by th house flv dif ferent times It had alway been de feated in the Senate, and meanwhile Statement No. 1 simply stood as a sub stitute for this amendment. Whir Responsibility Tle. He said members of th legislature should bind themselves to obey th will of the people and eleot the man of their choice, no matter what their own political Ideas might be. H answered the question that some people think It would be terrible for a Republican lea Islator to be compelled to vote for a Democratic senator, by saying that the provisions of Statement No. 1 mak this simply a perfunctory act on his part and take all the responsibility from his Shoulders . , .
