THE EUGENE WEEKLY GUARD VOLUME 44. EUGENE, OREGON, THURSDAY EVENING, 8EPT. 29, 1910 NO. 39 Ten Big Packers Must Stand Trial on Government Indictments Sviti vcruil, president of the Lttno County Aaaut Company Lua received tho following letter from H D. Forncri, chief en­ gineer, which ia self-explanatory. It ia made public because the Asset Company ia made tip of many hundreds of Lane county citisona, who uro interested in the project of building a railroad from Eugene to the coact. Mr. Forneri writes: Saratoga, Sept. 23.—The work of drafting a platform for presentation to the Republican state convention occupied the committee on resolutions the greater part of the night, and it waa daybreak before the platform was completed. The platform endorses the administrations of President Taft and Governor Hughes; declares that the Payne tariff law has been a success, and refers with approval to the work of the last congress. It pledges a continuance of the state graft inquiry ‘‘until all wrong-doing capable of exposure shall be brought to light.” The plank relating to direct primaries is very brief, but admits of no misconstruction. "We promise legislation which will enact these principles into law” is the pledge. “(’amp F. omeri, t •« * nth aid* of th« Hluslaw <. i, Oregon, and n t'itu) r< <1 nd Ion of tv. nty mil pt 2<, 1910 or more l«tw«n Eugen« red Gli ua M Hvarverud.

CONNERS Saratoga, Sept. 28.—When the Re­ publican state convention was called to order today by Temporary Chair­ man Roosevelt, the committee on credentials reported no contests, which elicited from the temporary chairman words of congratulation. United States Senator Root was nam- ed as permanent chairman, and he was escorted to the platform. Senator Root spoke of conditions in the Republican party, and said: “If the trend of public opinion is against it, we will change it. If old supporters of our party have turned under some idea that they can do better elsewhere, we will show them they are wrong. We will win. We will gain the support of the people of this state by deserving it.” “We will stand together,” conclud- That Henry L.
