WHAT WOULD BE A JUST DIRECT PRIMARY LAW7 Tho Journal Is asked what would bo tho right kind of a direct primary law? Well, all political Institutions are a growth. The constitution of tho United States was over a hundred years getting Into oxistence. So a chango in tho nominating sys tem must bo tho gradual substitution of a better system. Begin by precincts and citlos. Leave direct nomination optional with the party In any county of the state. If tho Republicans or Democrats of this city or county want to make their ticket by direct nomination, lot them do so. ENACT A LAW IN THAT FORM, AND THE PEOPLE WILL GROW INTO USING .IT FROM NECESSITY, AND COUNTY AFTER COUNTY WILL ADOPT IT. Somo counties might never adopt It. That has been tho case In Iowa and Ohio. But most countlos have. Tho whole proposition of somo per sons with wheels getting up a bill all on his own hook, nnd Imposing it up on a wholo commonwealth Is rot. A Just dlroct primary law would leave the peoplo all the present ways of oxpressjng thomselvos, and give them an additional way. The presont proposed direct pri mary law Is revolutionary, and would bo a dead lotter, just like tho Mays law for .oloctlng senators. o A CLEAR RIGHT. Tho supreme court has dcclarod that nn olght-hour law is constitutional. Very few peoplo evor doubted It, al though thoro wore many who strlvcd to mako tho world believe it unconsti tutional. Somo very good authority on constitutional law has doclarod that all rights not reserved by tho constitution are still Inherent In tho peoplo, but that is passing. matters are carried boforo legal tri bunals today to bo tostod that would not havo beon .thought of nfty years ago. Until qulto recently no ono would havo tjoubted tho right of tho legislative body to mako a law con corning which thoro was no referonce In tho constitution. HOW TO IMPROVE THE TOWN. Prohibit peoplo from dumping la-vn trimmings on tho street. Sprtnklo tho stroets in tho, business sections, y . , . Remove tho slubwood scattored along tho stroots. Stop defacing tho bridges "with un sightly advertising signs. Rako tho looso rook and rubbish off tho streets. Pick up plecos of old board along your lot and burn them, . Ask your wealthy nolghbor to clonn up his tumblo-down promlsos. Salem can bo made tho most boau t If ul city In tho stato If you say so, and aot. - An exchange pays a fervent trlbuto to tho klckor. It likes tho klckor bo cause ho makes things lively In his violnlty and rpllovos the monotony, Tho same might bo said of tho'mulq, but lot that pais. Onco upbu a-ilmo two frogs fell Into a full milk can. Ono of thorn sank and was drowned. Tho other struck out with his hind logs and paddled and paddled until rho lind chumod tho milk Into butter. Thon ho got on top of tho buttor lump and sat thoro until ho was rescued, Mining and hoppod off. Meral: Keep kicking and you'll land somewhere, all right Ay 9 Hnir TA-r 1 m.

Lf??: Wlt"iTlWPMOgtMtt Mtagjawi eimw'm Wo and tho Japs had Port Arthur captured Saturday. But, It seems that It got away again. i Was loud shouting ever known to accomplish anything since the walls of Jericho went down before it. There is nothing unusual about an editor being tho brightest man at the MethodUt conference. The Lord has to reach out and use ono of the unholy professions onco In a while. If the committee to select, a form of Improvement for Court street would tako a drive over tho brocken rock road to Liberty they could see just how farmers go to work to do things and they might be able to make up their minds before 1905. Anyone with a thlmblefull of gray matter who will go and see what kind of a ro'ad broken rock makes, by rid ing or walking over tho road to Lib erty, summer or winter, and then not conclude the dirt of river gravel roads are not up to the intelligence of an ostrich, ought to ask to have his Intel lect put to soak or have a receiver appointed. i By all means, build a 'monument for Sacajawea; Incidentally, onco In a while improve tho public school a little and do something for the gener ations of today. Of course, tho honorable conser vatives .on tho school board may not bo awaro that thoy are giving Salem a reputation for going backwards with our public schools that It will tako years of advertising and enterprise on the part of the peoplo who aro not dead yet to overcome Bryan's outspokenness Is In whole some contrast to Parker's close-mouth-edness. . Port Arthur was again taken In Saturday's dispatches. Well, wo will keep on tnking it on paper until tho Japs do get it in reality. Of course, it would bo too much to nsk tho state government of Ore gon to sprinkle tho streets about tho stato houso grounds where clouds of dust havo beon ruining tho beautiful shrubbery and flowers and lawns. We must 8a.vo a few dollars a week If wo ruin tho property. I. L. Manning Is doing the editorial work' on tho Solera Statesman In tfie absenco of Ex-Gov; Geer, In addition to his duties of handling the States man's political nows In this campaign Mr. Manning Is understood to have very flattering endorsements -for n federal appointment In connection with the Panama canal. HavlnjrViboon for tho' past ten yoars In Nicaragua ho Is accustomed to tho cllmato and un derstands tho provnlont Jargon In that country. Gov. Geer Is to be at St. Louis sovoral wooks. Tho peoplo of Oregon will do well to voto fr6ak propositions. The local option bill and tho direct primary bill wero probably tho work of ono por son for each ono porson with wheels on, Jhoeubjoct on which ho got up a bill, njhe Jlmo has hardly come for any oho man to dictate public policies which no ono petitioned for, and for which thoie was no crying demand. Colorado has adopted all these freaks, and fa tho worst hoodood stato In Amulda. If thnt dologatlon of Mayors really want pointers on modern methods df city government thoy should como out nud tnko a look oyer Greater Salem?" . Eddy for ylrcult judge ought to mako a g$Sd run. Ho Is not entire ly a tax-oator. In fact ho has held no lucrative ofllco. Ho put through a bill that s putting ?1QO,000 a yearln tho treasury. This Is a little unusual. Generally- the wore a man gets, out of tho crib tho-iloss he puts In. We are going to vo.to' for Eddy. As a candldato tor sheriff, Jimmle Culver Is well connected. Ho has a Headlights of th remo You see them everywhere the signal of en joyment and satisfaction that shines brightly from the face of every Cremo Smoker 5c. Largest Seller in the World. The 'Band is the Smoker's "Protection. brother who is a minister, and that is about as near perfection as tho peo plo will ever get In that office until the Prohi's got Into power when noth ing but ministers will be put on the ticket. Pilntor's Ink. No, wo never read It. It Is a, grafting proposition. It Is dishonest. It never tells the truth about anything. It quotes newspapers that flatter Geo. P. Rowoll and his newspaper directory. All it tells about the circulation of newspapers is what it is paid to tell. Ono of tho speakers at the Liberty rally Saturday night eulogized Jim Culver, tho Republican candldato for sheriff for his nerve In getting mar ried before olection. Ho wanted to bo sure of ono job, but that nerve was characteristic of the man. Ho would drop a man with a Winchester or hang a man In tho course of duty if tho law required him to. Nerve is a pquality that Is Important In a sheriff and no one bellove3 for a minute that Jim Culver has a partlclo of yellow streak In him. He Is cool-headed but don't Imagine for a moment that he wouldn't shoot. Tho Deschutes Improvement Coin- pany will open two banks Immediate ly, ono at Bend and anothor at Lytlo. These will havo a paid-up capital of $50,000. Tho president of both banks Is W. F. Guerln, Jr., who Is now at Lytlo. i Tho new reporter, did you say; well; the managing editor always has to keep an eye on him. He Is apt to be too slow or too energetic. Somo of tho nows that an Industrious local scavenger will drag Into an ofllco Is more dangerous than dynamlto. For instance, thoro aro nlways several Juicy sonsatlons on tap in tho com- munlty, that aro hanging on tho lower branches of tho trooof knowlodge, getting good and ripe boforo thoy aro ready to pick. The stronous novice on tho staff gathers them In greon and tho wholo community would bo grabbing at the unilpo fruit of his pro maturo Industry while the managing editor, would havo to leave town for a fow days, or keep an outlook on tho mlzzemnast for a month as ho walked the Btreot to see who was coming around tho next corner with a smile and a six-shooter, saying, "thoro'a r jat villlan." Tho now roportor reminds us of a darkey In tho steamboat race on the Mississippi doscrlbod by Mark Twain. Tho crow wore-heaving in tar and kindling and pitch nnd turpen tine to get up stonm. nnd to tho sur prlso of nil tho smaller boat of the 'two won out. When sho landed the mystery was oxplalned by tho captain pulling a half-cooked African deck hand off Iho top of tho holler whore ho had hlra sitting a-straddle of the safety valve to hold It down while lie got up mora steam than tho boilers wero entitled to Iiold. "I'd a won that race If I'd a cooked tho wholo bottom off from that nigger 'said tho oxclted captain. So tho new reportor will mako it all right If the managing edi tor alto on the safety-valve and trou sers hold out. icwpvi ihpsw aweewa0a3ee6)aMMcte T3 A iot the .Warm jrrepare Season : i Get your materials mndo up.
