The East Oregonlan has Just receiv
ed the follow-in? interesting letter
from John Grlvettc. an Italian citizen
of Cold Springs, who has been on a
visit to his native land for the past
two months and w ho is expected home
In e few days:
Spokane. Wash., Jan. 23. (Editor
East Oregonlan.) I started from
Pendleton on November 28. 1005. and
reached New York on the 3d of De
cember. How I pot across the river
frrm New Jersey I don't know. I
was asking everybody I was where the
boat was, and was on the boat nil
the time and- did not know It until I
was half way across.
Well, when I cot to New York, I
started out to find the Hanover bank,
where I had business, and seeing nn
extra fine looking building I thought
I would step Inside to look around a
little. T thought I was going to walk
through a door, when a man grabbed
me and said. "Hold on there, you will
be smashing a hole through that
looking glass."
Well, I turned round and said, "I
guess Its my treat. If I have lived
ii, vears. I did not know a glass from
a door."
Of course I s:iw myself, but thought
it was another man, as I had on a
new suit of clothes I bought in Chi-
Wtisliotits on thi Northern Pacific
Forces That Road to Get Into Port-
liinil by Way of O. R. & X.
Because of high water and wash-
outs on the northern Pacific near
I Pusco, the trains of that system are
j now using the O. R. & N. tracks Into
Portland from Spokane, while the
damage to the Northern Pacific tracks
Is being repaired.
Both passenger and freights of the
Northern Pacific are now passing
through Cmatllla over the O. R. & X.
! to Portland, but the damage Is not
1 heavy and It Is expected that the
Northern will be using its own tracks
again tomorrow.
! The Connell branch of the O. R. &
' X. Is also damaged somewhat by high
! water and last evening the Spokane
passenger train was deluyed for two
hours by high water hear Starbuck.
j This afternoon the Northern Pacl
j fic made arrangements to use all the
! O. R. & X. bridge carpenters aviill
I able in order to rush the repairs need
j ed on Xorthern Pacific bridges and
j track. A large damage was done on
i the Xorthern Pacific near Eltopla.

publican party and given it Its pies
tlge and from which It has drawn Its
power, Is being broken In every di
rection, and the campaign of educa
tion running through the last two
veara the Investigations of the big
lite Insurance companies In New York,
of the Standard Oil in Missouri, of the
beef trust In Chicago, the breaking of
corrupt republican rings everywhere
have at last taught the people that
what we told them In 1896 and again
in 1900 was true.
The democratic party has now an
opportunity In state and national af
fairs that It has not had for more
than a quarter of a century. To It
the people must turn for relief from
the unbearable conditions that now
exist, produced and fostered by those
who have shaped the destiny of the
republican party.
Will we be great enough to lead
st might forward on the path that Is
opened before us, to take the oppor
tunlty at high tide? If so we must
carefully guard the Integrity of our
organization nnd of the people, mem
bers of our party, who have trusted
their welfare to our keeping.
The primary election law now in
effect, if misinterpreted or given the
interpretation that under Its provis
ions any kind of an assembly where
the business of the people, party prln
clples, or the relative merits of can
didates may be discussed, Is improper
would be the greatest evil that has
ever fallen upon the people of our
state.
Because then the people would be
hopelessly and helplessly at the mer
cy of the few usurping bosses, self
anointed apostles, or an office-holding
trust. The preservation of a single
right to the people depends upon their
being able to meet and "reason to
gether." A number of nominating petitions
are already being circulated, some by
men utterly unworthy. Generally, as
soon as a man registers, petitions are
puked at him with request for his
signature. Sometimes In all thought
lessness, he signs, and will be cha
grined to find later that a really fit
or proper man for the office cannot
be properly presented at the primaries
because the careless voters have al
ready wasted their signatures.
Already, theie Is at least one can
didate who is in no way suitable us
a candidate or to hold office whose
little scheme Is simply to secure as
many democrats as possible to sign
his petition as they register, all If
possible, and thus make It impossible
for anyone to contest with him at the
primaries.
Obviously. It Is unwise to sign any
petition until the voter knows the
I names of all those from amongst
whom he may pick his candidate.
Please aid as far as possible In advis
ing our people to withhold their sig
natures from all petitions until they
have the full list of names to select
from.
As chairman, I hereby call a meet
In ir of the democratic central com-
mlitee, to meet at my office In Pen
dieton, on Saturday, February 3
1 906, at 10 .o'clock hi the forenoon.
This will bo In my Judgment more
Important than any meeting ever held
by this committee. Xew questions ate
before us that we must decide. Some
strife Is threatened. I trust that you
and every other member of the com
mlttee will be present. I would like
