After a song by John Clair Montelth, the chairman presented Dan J. Malarkey, candidate, for state senator, saying he had served In three sessions ef the legis lature with Malarkey and found him al ways, ready to oppose jobs, to fight any sign of graft, and to champion the rights of the people. Malarkey quickly found he was in the house of his friends as he came forward to speak. In part he said; ' ,The greatest and strongest anti-assembly Republican : In the country today is not a resident of Portland! or Of the state of Oregon. He is a resident or the state of New York, the " foremost, citizen of the ' American people; He is the statesman who has aroused the conscience of the American people, who xhampldns 'a square deal and is the most Indefatigable opponent of special privileges today. His name Is Theodore Roosevelt. Hew York's Situation. "In his tour of the west in the last two weeks Roosevelt has made the most forceful anti-assembly speeches, and I am tempted to read, what he has said. rather than make a speech qf my own. He la fighting the forces that the advo cates .of the direct r primary law and Statement No. 1 are fighting in Oregon today; The 'highbrows" of big business and of Wall street are-uttering ominous warnings and denouncing. what he says. "We, find the , Republican bosses of New York, Woodruff, Barnes and Ward, are threatening to read Roosevelt but of the Republican party for the same rea son because he advocates the direct pri mary, just as Seneca-Beach, Charles Lockwood and Max Q.Tohen propose to read advocates or wo direct primary out of the party, here in Oregon, "The adoption; of, the direct primary unhampered by , an assembly "and the adoption of a principle like Statement No. 1 are steps in the advancement 'of the political affairs of this country.

' - ' t "The direct primary law was enacted by the people through their Initiative power by a vote of four to one, and if you eliminate all others than Repub licans, two out of -every three Republi cans voted for It. I believe a law en acted by the people is at least entitled to as much respect as a law passed by the average legislature. V Bosses Want Machine. ? "The people did what no legislature would do and g-ave themselves the right to choose their own candidates. ' Now e,Very man can . go Into the great as sembly of all the voters and have a fair field. It 1s the purpose of the assembly bosses to get away from - this and go back to the old system,' where no man stood a' chance for nomination unless he was willing to go to some, private office and there bow down and. receive the collar of the machine. - If the as sembly idea prevails, how can it be said that tt man who does not get the in dorsement of the assembly has"an equal chaace with the man who does? 'For four years we have had the direct primary; One would think to hear the crcakings qf the assembly men that we had bad government But nave you heard of officials any worse than they were before? Let tne give you an illustration. The industrial. commer- clai and agricultural Interests of the state tried for years to get a' railroad commission In this state. Not till there was a direct primary legislature did the people get it Corporations Defeat Bill. "In the legislature in, 1903 I intro duced a bill that trainmen should not be required or allowed, to work longer than 14 consecutive houra- But .the corporations" were there and the railroad representatives were there, and my bill was laughed to scorn. In 1905 I tried it again, but again it failed, for the men -produced by the old system were more responsive to the . special inter ests than to the people. In 1907 I again Introduced that bill. There was a di rect primary legislature that year and the bill was enacted into law. And among "the men so saturated with the old idea Whoyoted against it was Seneca C. Beach, who is now the head and front of the , assembly system." "Hit him again," said a voice. Mr. Malarkey then took up Statement No. 1, which he defined as meaning that the members of the legislature pledge themselves to elect the people's man as United States senator, instead of, a man agreed Upon in some secret conference in some dark office- He said that not a session of legislature is held where a senatorial contest is on that dozen votes cannot be se cured for some bill, good or bad. in exchange for one vote for United States senator. The" result. Is that the legis lative branch. oV government Is para lyzed. Senate Bleb Man's Club. "But the greatest objection to the old system," he continued) "is that tne sen ate of the United States has become a rich man's club and members pay their Initiation fee by buying legislatures. About a year ago the legislature of" II linois assembled to elect a senator and a millionaire named Lorlmer Joined the club by paying the usual initiation fee "In 1907 another gentleman wanted to Join the club. He lived in Colorado and his name was Guggenheim. He bought It In the usual way. He was inter viewed and had the audacity to say he did not consider it anything wrong, as members who had been elected by his money felt under obligation to him The dregontan commented on this and In Its Issue of January 18, 1907, it said in an editorial: " The Guggenheims will continue to break in until all senators are elected bv the people. We shall not be free from the Guggenheims until then.'" ' Then the speaker painted a picture of the legislative session of 1901 in Ore gon. when the late H. W. Corbett was I candidate. He said the boys were glad to see Corbett get In, because he was reputed to have a big sack. ' ' ' Blmoa Controlled Oo&Tsatloti, The convention in Portland was con' trolled by Joseph Simon and no man could go to the legislature unless he would take the pledge to secure Cor bett's election. So candidates were signed up before they were allowed to run. .That was not statement No. 1, but statement 3." Malarkey then told the story of Dres ser, A member of the legislature from Oregon City, who came to Portland and pledged himself to Simon and Graham Glass to vote for Corbett. But Dresser was coaxed over by the Mitchell boys in the last days of the session, and Glass defended himself In a statement saying he had done ail he could by pledging Dresser in advance. ; Then the speaker told of Hemenway and M'Queen, two Lane county members of the legislature of 1901, who demand ed proof of .ability to pay before they would deliver their votes' to Corbett Fifteen 1100 bills were put In motion from back somewhere near the Corbett pocketbook and passed to a man named Poorman, who passed them on to a Janf tor in the statehouse named Gates.' , , Skipped With BUia. . The bills were to be shown to the two legislators and ' then returned.' But Gates kept the bills and skipped for California. He was arrested at Albany, but .was turned loose on instructions trom Salem from the men higher up that he was not wanted. He told of another legislator from Crook county who would not stay bought more than one day at a time at the holdup session of 1907. ' Malarkey declared the people as com petent to choose their senators as to choose governors and congressmen, and pointed out that pluralities elect men to those offices as well as to the senator? ship. He declared that men who op pose (statement une ana say they are in tfavor of popular election of sena' tors are either Ignorant or Insincere. . However bad Bourne and Chamber lain may be, said the speaker, they are the choice of the people. But Bourne was not regarded as he is now by the assembly men when he was elected, and the Oregonlan editorially commended his election as a triumph of popular government. Chamberlain was elected .because the people had confidence in his honesty, but he would not even then have been chosen had not assembly Re publicans who favored Fulton voted at Malarkey emphatically denied that he 0f Bourne, and said he would vote for whoever the people choose. He pointed out that Republican officials are not uncommon in Democratic states, and Democratic officials In Republican , Malarkey exhibited th elate of the Ucgislatlve ticket made up for the as- scmrjiy oerore It was held, and said the question of the campaign is, "Can the bosses come bark?" He clcsl with an eloquent appeal to the people to register and vote in November to avert the blow aimed at popular government by the bosses of Oregon.

'.'ID L SELECT SITE FOR P0ST1FFK Named by President Taft as Special Agent for Treasury Department. According to a dispatch from Wash ington, D. C., Dr. Joseph Wood Hill, prlncipl of the Hill Military academy and engaged In general brokerage busi ness with offices In the Lumbermen building,' ' has- been ' appointed ; 'special agent .for the treasury, departmentto select a site, for Portland's hew posof- f Ice. The appointment, was , made by President Taft - . -'rrJ-j-. UVJ'i Dr. Hill has not yet received advices of his appointment -to the important position, but ' has - no reason to ' doubt the correctness : of the ; dispatch 'and hence expects that the commission will arrive by mail in a few days. ; i "Of courses I do, not like to so Into publicity,; sin.ee I ?hav ho official .In formation touching - upon the reported appointment. said Dr. Hill last night, but I consider the .appointment quite an Honor, since it ; is customary for the government in such cases' to send a special agent from Washington or some other city than the one where the se lection is to . be, made," Dr. Hill is a warm personal friend of President Taft they two havlng,been college chums at Tale after years of friendship In their, boyhood days. , And during the past year Dr. Hill visited the chief executive twice, the most re cent visit having been in "February of this year, when they were photographed together in the executive chamber. Ah though Dr. Hill never made capital of the distinguished honor, the photograph may be seen on the wall In the office of the Lumbermens building. X Dr. JIIll refused to' discuss any ques tion that would indicate his preference In location. The postofflce department Is known to favor a site near the union depot, and several blocks of ground were offered for that purpose when bids for ground were opened some time ago at Washington. "' However, a number of sites nearer the heart of the city have also been submitted, as available and It is be lieved that competition will be keen when it comes for a final decision, all of which will be left to the Judgment of Dr. Hill. The reason for favoring a site in proximity to the depot is found in the fact that it would save time in hand ling malls between the postofflce and trains. Umatilla Merchant Sued.
