WHY PAY RENT?

You can buy a residence lot
in Charleston by paying $4,000
down and $1,000 a month un-
til fully paid for. No boom,
but land contract No. 1884
has been signed. Take a drive
and see how many new houses
are going up. No boom, but
in six years we have grown
from o to $500 souls, with
electric lights, pressure water
service and plank sidewalks.
No boom, but we have two
banks already. No boom, but
our orchards pay dividends on
a valuation of $4,000 per acre.
There is no better field for in
vestment; none safer; none to
pay better, surer profits than
Charleston Vineland real es-
tate. No cost for a drive to

Direct Primary Laws.

II Is now urged universally by
advocates of a primary election law
th.t the effective reform method is
that of direct nominations. DULY
thus can the skill that makes
trades In conventions be put out
of business The direct nomination
system, enacted hitherto in Michi-
gan. Minnesota and Wisconsin,
has now been adopted in Massa-
chusetts. The law of this last
named state closely follows that Of
Minnesota.
Under its requirements the pri-
mary elections of all parties must
be held at the same time and place.
Election officers, paid by the state,
appointed In equal numbers from
the two principal parties, will
supervise the primary elections
and certify the result. The new
method Is expected to break up
the old system of "cross. lifting"
between politicians of different
parties, which en- bles men of one
party TO take part In making the
nominations for the other party,
or joint bosses to dictate the nomi.
nations for both.
The reform Is to be effected not
only by requiring that the primary
elections of all parties must be
held at the same time and place,
but by the further requirement
that the voter who desires to take
part In the primary must declare
at the time his party affiIiation or
connection, and thai voters Of one
party cannot within one year take
part in the nomination OF candi-
dates of another. That is, the
voter who affiIiates himself with
one party at the first primary he
attends must continue to act with
that party in the primaries at least
for one year and until he notifies
the Election Commissioners in
writing thar he has decided TO
change his party affiliations, aud
even then he must wait ninety
days before the change takes effect.
The records are official, and are
to be kept; so there will be no
danger to him who violates the
law.
A law of such character seems
tous merely experimental. Time
will be necessary to determine how
II will work. Under the Massa-
chusetts law the name of any can
didate will be inserted in the
official ballot if the petition of a
number of voters equivalent Co
five In each ward or precinct shall
be filed with the Election Com,
missioners. This is likely to pro
duce an enormously long ticket
But democratic government. any
way you take 1t involves no little
trouble. -Oregonian.
