AN OBJECT LESSON IN DIRECT
NOMINATION..


There Is a strong demand for pri
mary law IN Oregon. aud the next log
islature is liable to pass one While
they are at II. they might as well give
tho people a direct voice in the nom.
ination Of candidates. That is the law
OF many states. and does away with
tho Iogrolling and trading and corrup-
tion growing out Of the present sys-
tenn.
We print below a list OF the aspl-
rants for nomination in this state and
tlounty. Under direct nomination such
a list on tho Australian ballot plan
would bo submitted 10 the voter at
the primary. and each Republican
would make his mark to indicate his
choice among the candidates.
All the county committee would have
to do would bo 10 meet and count the
returns from each precinct, and de-
clare the choice Of the voters for each
once. from United States senator down
to constable.
Direct nomination In the cheapest
plan. and Is productive OF the most par
" harmony. as each candidate feels he
has submitted his nomination to the
Judgment of bis fellow citizens.
Here Is the list each Republican
would be asked 10 ehoose from at the
direct primary election. and possibly
other names would be added 10 choose
from. Each Republican would be al
apt 70 choose the right man as any del
egnto. and there would bo little or nc
room for corruption.
An Official would. under direct nom
inntion. appeal directly 10 the people
70 DO returned 10 once. on his record
instead OF having 10 make his peace
with the spoilsmen.

election In Marion county--indicate
your choice by q cross before name OF
your choice for candldate).

Arctic Bellies.

Some Of the most costly dresses
worn by women are those which are
owned by the bellies Of the arctic re-
gions. In those lands of ice the
women dress themselves by the light
of the aurora borealis in costumes
more valuable than those worn by
the richest women in New York or
Paris. Frequently the wardrobe Of
a semisavage girl consists Of furs
that would sell for $4,000 inN the
haunts of civilization. 1t is no un-
common thing for a woman Of the
arctic circle to wear dress OF seal
skin with hood of that rarest Of
fur the silver fox. The average
value Of a dress worn by woman
on the headWaters Of the Columbia
and Fraser rivers is said to be $500,
it being composed entirely of yalu-
able skins.

The Economy Of the Egyptians.

A curious illustration of the do
nestle economy Of the Egyptians
has been met with in the unWinding
of the bandages of the mummies.
Although whole webs of fine cloth
have been most frequently used, in
other cases the bandages are frag-
mentary and have seams, darns and
patches. Old napkins are used, old
skirts, pieces Of something that may
have been shirt, and once a piece
Of cloth was found with an arm

band finely stitched by fingers them

dust blown to the four winds.

OBSERVATIONS
BY SARAH B. HARRIS


Among themselves and unnoted by
men of affairs they have talked over
the question of saloons and determined
that they must be exterminated. They
selling or liquor drinking: but with
high courage and confidence i'm their
own united efforts and influence, they
believe that they can force the adop-
tion of plan which will close the
doors of saloons where the respectable
class meets the law-breaking class on
the same plane.
As it is at present, the youth of this
educational centre are not ashamed to
go into a place where the most re-
spected citizens are met to drink and
treat and be sociable. II we are not
our brothers keeper the most hardened
and selfish will not deny that the ma
ture have charge of the young. the
father of his boy. The saloon is an in
stitution which is approved and Ii
censed by the mature. 1t is a lure to
the young. Good citizens, by common
consent. go in and out of the saloon in
the sight of the young. The older ones
practically say to the youngsters:
This is a respectable place, 1t is
where We get our daily drains, it is
beneficent institution which supports
the schools, and you are taught that
the public schools are the bulwarks of
American constitutional government"
American youth are quick-witted.
The fathers of the boys do not need to
furnish their sons with anything more
forcible than the paternal example. If
the fathers consider the saloons a nee
essary institution of the city and make
use of them, the mother who has
taught her sons that their father Is a
noble man and a safe guide has the
ground cut from beneath her feet.
However fond and chivalrous the boys,
rightfully their ideal is manhood. The
bright boys have quickly learned the
current view of woman. They think
her very desirable as a housewife, to
get their dinners and mend and wash
their clothes: but when ii comes to
practical living, life as it is among
men, of course the mother is not good
authority. II the bread-winner is re-
vered and respected as he should be,
he is the pattern. that his son copies
and should copy. If he is habitue of
,.f,
are tolerated when the son becomes a
regular saloon visitor; but from the
point of view of the son as an under
study to his father, her views are
prejudiced and womanish. The boy
who has begun to visit the saloons
earlier than his father never reaches
his fathers stature of usefulness and
dignity.
The saloon tempts a boy where he is
most vulnerable: his fear of ridicule
and his liking for the society of his
own sex and age. Whiskey is an ac-
quired habit. Gregariousness, love of
popularity and dread of ridicule are an
inheritance from the most ancient of
ancestors. When one youth says to
a group of his comrades, Have this
with me-" il is conventional for every
youth to be host and guest in turn.
Every boys father has been in the
same situation and the boys have OBJ
served their fathers generosity and
acceptance of the old custom. Almost
before they know it the boys are
drunk and noisy and quarrelsome and
have started on a lifelong career of
uselessness and of absolute social and
economic bankruptcy.

A Man and His Son

A man with comfortable income
may drink and drink immoderately for
years, and except for a lessening of the
respect shown him at the club, on the
street and i'm society, neither he nor
his family will suffer the diminutions
of intemperance. On the other hand
the laboring man who spends a tenth
or a fifth of his daily wage for liquor
deprives his family and himself of some
of the things known as the necessaries
of life. His earning capacity is slowly
but certainly affected by the liquor he
drinks. If he is a skilled laborer and
his wage is based upon the delicacy
makes them tremble and his deftness
becomes awkwardness; his wages are
reduced because the product of his la
bor and talent is no longer of the first
quality.
Hunger and cold and unattended
sickness wait just around the corner
for the day-laborer who drinks. Be-
tween the man of securely
income and hunger and cold there is
long time and the friends of better
days. His sentence is just as sure of
execution as the poor mans sentence;
but he is reprieved again and again by
friends and circumstances. Before the
wolf can sink his fangs in the flesh of
a rich man he must break down bar
riers Of custom and ramparts laid by
friendly hands. The poor man has
friends, too; but they do not stand
shoulder to shoulder TO resist the pres
sure Of the class below them. II rich
man does anything disgraceful his
friends plead with the men and women
he has injured to let him off. For the
: sake of his wife and his children, for
ciety has said is honorable. and
which innocent children inherit,
his creditors are implored not to
prosecute him. When a poor man
takes what does not belong to him he
is called thief Embezzler sounds
politer. but for a thief who has no po-
sition in society, for one who is not
supported by the crowding shoulders
of a class. We do not take the trouble
of three syllables. He is a thief and

numbered by the solicitations of a

who began his career at school. First
he stole his wife's money and then he
stole other trust monies. And besides
he is a coward. Some criminals have
the courage of their business. Burglars
have a certain kind of courage and a
kind Of pride in their own proficiency
and dare-devilishness. Many burglars
who consider that they stand at the
head Of their profession in this coun-
try relate their crimes with poorly
concealed exultation when they are

penitentiary But this man when he

At the rear end of this series of chambers is a large cellar with a trap door outside for taking in snp- rlies; next to that is cellar be- heath the corridor, from which a stairway leads up to the kitchen door. From this cellar large tun- nel leads to an immense cellar under the dining room.
 The structure is well planned and substantially and elegantly con- structed. It will be the finest hotel on the Pacific coast outside of Los Angeles and San Francisco. It is certainly the finest in the Republic of Mexico.
 The company building and own ing this elegant edifice includes local and American capitalists. The officers are as follows:
