THE ROAD BLIGHT It la further declared In the preamble of said law that "all qualified elec tors who wish to serve the neonle In ""an elective public offlco are right .... . fully entitled to equal opportunities under the law." Naturally, the legislature shrank from providing another method of nomluatlons, when the primary law Itself explicitly stated that nomina tion should not be made "In any otner manner. To provide any other manner" was to defeat the pur pose of the law, and It was a law made and adopted by the oeoole for a POWERFUL appeal by one who the purpose of providing a specific A knows the blight or bad roads manner of nominating. That pur wa made at the meeting of the pose carried with it, as the primary fruitgrowers Wednesday. The law Itself declares, an intent that speaker was A., I.

Com pared to other activities in life we have done nothing for our highways. , It costs 40 times as much to haul a ton-of freight over a rural highway as to transport it by railroad. That which it costs , $1 to move by rail costs $40 by rural road. It is an awful condition, a condition that 13 a mockery of our intelligenca. It is an Indictment of our system, the con templation of which is enough to make ns blush with shame. No single agency will do as much for country life as good road. Xo single agency will do so much for the financial betterment of both rural and urban life. The bad road Is a costly toll on the farmers time and toil. If he be delivered from it by good roads his time and toil be come doubly efficient. His earn ings are vastly increased and at once he becomes a heavier buyer of what the city dweller has to sell. It Is the truest of truth that whatever enriches the country enriches the town, and tbat a paramount issue with both is a rural road that will double or treble the farmers' chance this fall for the first time participat ing largely in bringing out the great grain crop of Manitoba, Alberta and Saskatchewan, While much of this is oeing trans-shipped to old lines at Winnipeg, a good deal of it is being carried through on the new road to Port Arthur on Lake Superior, from which point it has an all water route to . Europe. This new road, Mr. Barker says, "surpasses in magni tude any railroad project ever con ceived in America at one time and as a whole." It extends from Monckton, New Brunswick, to the Pacific ocean at Prince Rupert, Brit ish Columbia, a distance of 3561 miles, besides several important branch lines, one of which is com pleted, and six more are under rapid construction. The cost of this great new rail road is divided between the Cana dian government and the Grand Trunk railroad; the eastern half, from Winnipeg to Monckton, is be ing built directly by the Canadian government, on funds raised by 3 per cent bonds sold in London. The western half Is being built on bonds by the Grand Trunk, which will lease the eastern half from the gov ernment for 50 years. The govern ment guarantees for 50 years these raiiroad bonds to the amount of $13,000 per mile.

All Portland held its breath and awaited the onslaught Females In the vicinity grasped their hatpins and swore they would fight to the last ditch. "Peace, be still, my heart," said frightened men as they placed their hands on their pal pitating hearts and prepared to swoon. Then, fieree as ten furies, came the attack. The fell newsboy's arm swished through the air and the murderous snowball sped on its mission. But, lo, the scene changed. A man of mighty parts hove in sight All heedless of his own peril and with his body exposed to the chance of being shot all to pieces by the man eater's snowballs, the brave man ran gallantly and at great speed right up to and seized the villain, and ut terly refused to unhand him.

Only In comparatively few places does the magnetic needle point due north. The north magnetic pole Is in the vicinity of Williams Land, just off the Arctic coast of North Amer ica, In Dothla. When this pole. Is directly between one and the geo-i graphle pole, tbe needle points due north, not otherwise. Wherever one is. It points toward this -magnetla pole north, east, west or south. Sir James Roes located the magnetic pole approximately la 1831, and Roald Amundsen relocated It more definitely In 10J. At that point the needle points downward. What the pole Is, what causes tbe mag netic attraction Is something yet to find out. to day, with a little special emolument for staying bought over Sunday. sAs Senator McGinn says, "We all know more or less about these practices and are heartily ashamed of them. They wjere not peculiar to Oregon, but the financial, orgy .J.t.en4in.;?uj?h-...ans.e4eqv tion was a feature of nearly every legla tature." ut enough of this, I give Mr. Moores credit for the decency that should find lodgment in the breast of every patriotic American citizen, when such practices are made impossible. We believe they "have been made impossible under the direct primary law and the operation of Statement One. . I have 'seen tw senators elected at Salem under the operation of this law,' and from a prac tlcal experience of nearly 40 years In the management of politics, I am led to the deliberate conclusion that State ment One Is a revelation for the salva tlon of the American people. It is -tha greatest political discovery -of the age. As a discoverer of a new purlfyln potentiality, Mary Baker Eddy is not in it with the framers of the Oregon primary law. Statement 'tine simply means this It is Impossible for you, Mr. Moneybags, to place your coin In a legislature com posed of Statement One men. They have entered Into a solemn public compact under the law with their constituents, which means the keeping . of a sacred pledge at one end or. a hanging bee at the other end If the compact is broken. The poorest man in Oregon, if 'he haa the anility to get the popular vote, can not be cheated out .of going to the United States by some representative of the old aystem, with a million dol lars In cash to corrupt a legislature. I wish men Ilka C U. Moores, who are educated and have brains and ability could see this matter aa the ordinary cttlsen aees it who has- no atak In poll tics but to go to the polls and cast his ballot. The law now gives him a bal lot at the primary election and another on election day. . In both Instances ha wants hla little cross mark to count and to be regarded as the sacred expression of bis cltlsenshlp when he ta Jn the bal lot booth with irobody present but hi conscience, and bis God. That his cross mark oa the primary ballot and on tb Australian ballot shall be counted and carried Into 'effect lk guaranteed to him under tb provisions of . . STATEMENT. ONE.'

Wasco County's Potato Crop. ' Tha Dalles. Or T the Editor of The, Journal la the aero I-week! r Jour nal appeared aa extravagant account of tb potato crop of Wasco ccaatys dry farms. tVhU 1 do not object to aa id. From present indications very strong aaeaults.are -t be. maiia upon -the- spirit of our direct primary law in and during the political campaign of next year. A plan haa been ' devised and is being openly advocated up and down the state by certain newspapers who would see the old political convention system re stored and the oldtlme machine bosses, whereby, the whole Intent of the law would be violated.-' And it Is going to require tbe strongest fixedness of pur pose on the part of voters who believe the whole people ahould rule, if the apparently plausible arguments of these reactionaries do not carry many of the people off their feet. Appeals to party prejudice, of the strongest nature, are continually made, for the purpose of manufacturing publio opinion, in order to carry this purpose out at the prima ries next year. . , ' Boss rule and machine politics gen erated the enactment of the direct pri mary law by the people. The people had become very weary of the number of Jack Mathewses throughout the state, who made politics a profession and study. No man could secure a nomina tion for office, especially the more lm portent ones, until he had first placated these political vampire. No man could hope to be elected United. States sena tor until he had promised these un principled scoundrels certain of the loavesand fishes, which would be In the power of the senator - to beatow. The people had been compelled to ailent- y witness the bargain and sale of these federal positions time and again.
