The now famous Statement No. 1 of the primary law niakea it possible for tbe people of Oregon to name the men who shall hereafter be elected United States Senators from this state. In stead of leaving that important matter to forty-six or more members of the legislature to decide, influenced by any old influence, a Statement No. ), legislature will be directed and com manded to elect the men who have Urst passed muster by tbeir party, and then passed muster by tbe whole peo ple. And this ia all there is to State ment No. 1. It is now simply a ques tion as to which method the people prefer, and it is for them to say in tbe present campaign. Tbe law ia not what the bosses, who constitute the machine, want, because with the sen atori'd election removed from the hails of the legislature the opportunity to make money out cf tbe sale of that ottlce is taken out of tbeir bauds. Therefore tbey and those great oon eed interests who are always in tbe uiaiket to buy a senatorsbip, bad de termined to ignore tbe law and then repeal it in 10ui. This bad iully been determined on when Jonathan Hourue, Jr., of Portlanu, who for tea years has been working to substitute tbe new for the old method of electing U. S. Senators from Oregon, undertook to block this game of tbe bosses and tbe trust Interests. It could be done only by arousing tbe people to stand for the law which they themselves had passed in the election of June, 1904. In December last he put out 9000 cir cular letters to tbe signers of the petl tions on which tbe law had been sub' mitted to popular vjte, and warned chem of the purpose of certain Inter ested parties to nullify it. The re spouse showed that tbe people weie unsuspecting of danger, and in Janu ary be sent to every registered voter iu the state an appeal to stand by the law, and inclosed a return postal card pledge, some 10,1)00 or wbicb were signed and mailed back to him. Many hundreds of letters were also tent to bun encouraging him to continue tie work to save tbe law, and urging him to become a candidate for United States Senator, under its provisions, as he had already become Its Cham plon. In February he announced his oaudldHcy followed by the platform on which be is now seeking tbe nomi nation. To every registered Kepubll can voter in the state one of these has been sent, and Mr. Bourne is now putting out a final appeal urlug tbe voters to support at tbe primary polls only Statement No. 1 candidates for the legislature. This campaign to save the law from being wrecked I y tbe politicians be has conducted himself, and alone has oorne all the expense incident thereto. It is est in: uteri that he has sent through the mails iutbe neighborhood or a hair a u illlon letters. In oonneotlou with this cauioaiim there are two significant facts. One Is that tbe country press has not discuss ed the law, ixcept in isolated cases,' and then geneially to ooudemn with out elucidating it ; the other is that ail of the moneyed interests and tbe class that enjoys special privileges un der special laws, have been and are now opposed to tbe election of Sena tors by tbe direct vote of the peoplo. Of all the wealthy men In the state, Mr. Itourne is tbe only one wbo has espoused tbe law and tbe people's de mand for a cleansing of Ol political methods.
