Candidate-for National Com
mitteeman Asserts to Sec
retary State Attack Made,
LAW, VIOLATION CHARGED
Attention Called to "Statute Which
States Zonal loomj Given
to Opponent.
Protest has been filed with Secretary
of State Olcott by Charles W. Acker
son, candidate for RepiJbliean commit
teeman for Oregon, agaltst the inclu
sion In the official campaign pamphlet
of a letter written by C. B. Moore,
member of the dock commission, Urg
ing Republicans to vote for Ralph Wil
liams, Incumbent, and attacking Mr.
Ac kerson.
Mr. Ackerson states that Mr. Moorea'
lntter la In violation of that section
of the Oregon law which provides that
each candidate against whom letters
of opposition aro written shall have
equal spatn the booklet to state- his
slo of the lsmio.
Me contends that Mr. Moores" letter
is both an argiiiippnt In favor of xone
candidate and an argument against
another. This, declares Mr. Ackeraon,
is unlawful. ,
The paragraph to which Ackerson
objects reads:
Chang In Registration Woted.
"O. W. Ackerson registered as aPro
gresalVe on January 8 this year, and
on March 1 last, changed his registra
tion to Republican, and Immediately
filed liis declaration for Republican
national committeeman, clearly show
ing that his change in politics was for
office only, as within 24 hours after
he became a Republican he was a can
didate for one of the -most important
offices In the gift of the party.
"Ttt average man is fairmlnded.
arid every consideration of fair play
calls fpr tho selection of a man for
this Important office, who Js ant
has been a consistent Republican, an 1
iWho lias given his time and energy
In the interest of the Republican par
tjv and not a tic.v convert who bs
cotnes a Republican Just the day be
fore he announces Ills candidacy for
office. As a consistent Republican
U't- should vote for a man whose Re
publicanism is unquestioned."
Mr. Aikcrson's letter to Secretary
Olcott follow:
Ackerson's Latter.
"I beg to call your attention to Page
8. last paragraph, of the official
pamphlet fr the .primary nominating
election, Mav 15, 1914. same being an
article entitled 'Ralph K. Williams,
Candidate for Republican Party for
National Committeeman' and signed
.'Chas. H. Moores. Information fur
liiahed by C has. B. Moores,' first copies
of which were run from the press
April 17. 1 notn that on the . page
occupied by Ralph E. Williams, one
aragraph is in the nature of an at
tack upon or of argument against my
nomination.
"It seems clear to me that this la in
violation of Hectlon 3487 of Lord's Ore
Ton I,aws., which, after providing for
the filing of statements by the can
didates, or their friends, says: 'Any
person or persons opposing the nomina
tion of any such candidate may, not
later than tho 39th day, before said
nominating election, file with the sec-
rotary of state their typewritten or
printed . statements over their slf.
imtures of the reasons why such can
didata should not be nominated, and
every such statement should be accom
pan lea by proor. by affidavit, or
sheriffs return, that they have caused
to be cerved personally and in per
son, upon such candidate a true copy
of Kuehstatement. Each candidate
shall be allowed one page of printed
matter and those opposing him shall
each be allowed one page of space on
equal terms with him as hereinafter
provided.'
"I believe this has always been con
st rued to forbid an argument against
ne candidate being included In the
argumerft in favor of another.
- - Alleges Violation of Law.
"These gentlemen who have with
supreme disregard and contempt vio
lated the laws of Oregon are the same
wbo rode over and trampled under
foot the wishes of the majority as ex
pressed in the primary elections of
1912.
"Who Is this Charles B. Moores? Ia
he the same Charles B. Moores who,
in his mad attempt t force Taft. tho
.minority candidate, on to the majority
of the Republican party, brought about
lb defeat of that able and grand char
acter, Honorable Ben Selling, for
I'nited States senator?
"Secretly and under cover of dark
ness, these men have slipped Into the
voters' pamphlet and attempt to take
away. a right granted and guaranteed
to me under the Oregon primary sys
tem, the right of fair play, the right
to refute an argument against me.
"I'nder section 2487. lord's Oregon
laws, 1 am entitled to be served par-
sonally and in perwon with a true copy
or any asgument against my candl
Uacy.
Minority Party Victorias.
The leorard cannot ohange Its
spots and once more we have an ex
ample of the methods of the old gang,
the methods that have torn asunder
the Republican party and have made
it easy 'for the minority party to placa
. its candidates in high offices In the
normal Republican stata of .Oregon.
" "' "Under the rule of Ralph Williams.
as committeeman, we have witnessed
men of high standing and lofty char
, actr sent down to ignominious defeat
by the minority party.
"FVr the first time in the history of
. tna ranon, tne voters have an wooor
tunlty to decide who will lead the
party aa national committeemen. Un
der tho old system, six men in the
back room of some hotel. 8000 miles
from home, fixed up the deal to suit
themselves. We have the supreme
' opportunity to bury the standard
larer of the old steam roller crowd
on May i&.
"Well knowing that r have against
ma me most powerful, sinister arid
unscrupulous politicians in the state.
I ask that you, as an impartial officer
f the. state of Oregon, see that I re
ceive all the right and privileges
rmniea ro me unaer the Oregon prt
