THE DIRECT PRIMARY BILL.

The primary bill proposed by the
Clackamas County Direct Nomination
League may be imperfect. but It is q
move in the right direction.
It will compel discussion, and in the
end the subject will be better under
stood. and the real cause of reform b.
advanced.
There is danger Of undertaking too
much, and that is the weak point Of
the proposed bill, which would abol.
ish all political conventions at one
sweep.
Existing political Institutions can
be amended. changed and better pro
.cesses substituted, but can never be
swept away and abolished at one step.
Direct nomination began in Mime.
sofa and other states at city elections,
extended 10 counties and thus grew
to take in the whole state.
That Is the natural process OF the
development of political institutions,
and all political organizations are
growth, a development
The bill prepared Jy the Marion
County Direct Primary League, and
submitted to the last legislature, had
this defect 1t went too far.
The Representatives Of the people
would not trust themselves to vote
to abolish all political conventions.
as the majority of the people have
been accustomed to meeting In con.
ventions, and will not at once abau.
don that custom, or surrender that
privilege.

The Daily Herald has been sued by John Case, the suspended chief of police of this city. for the sum of $l0,0oo This action Is the direct result of an article which appeared in The Herald of May 5, charging the then chief with immoral conduct.

 MT. Cosminsky further stated the chief accused him of interfering with policemen. Cosminsky attempted to ex- plain to Chief Case that he was in error. and asked to be allowed to explain. but was informed by Case that he did not want to hear any more from him as he was tried of his coming around there and would kick him out of the station if he did not attend to his own - bushes "'Mr Cosminsky then stated to the mayor that last night while going home

The News of Pensacola

Pensacola, May 12.--(speciai-)-- Frank Brown. negro, lives on the naval reservation. and yesterday af- ternoon his presence was desired at the session of the United States Court. which opened at 10 a. m. United States Deputy Marshal Behymer was given paper and instructed. on the face of the process. to have Brown at court at a certain hour in the afternoon.
 The officer went at once for his man and was not long in finding the house. Brown had just reached home and was possibly not feeling well, for when the offlcer announced his mission. Brown very promptly informed Deputy Behy- mer that he would not go. The mar shal refused to leave without the ob- ject of his visit going with him. and then the trouble began.
 When the oficer refused to go with out Brown, the latter tried to brain the representative of the United States Court with a chair and did strike him twice on the head. Deputy Behymer began shooting at Brown. and the next second the black had been pierced by three bullets. This afternoon report is that the negro is in critical con- dition. and that his death would not be surprising.
 Complete exoneration Is given tho Federal officer, witnesses testifying that he shot only after he had beer struck twice with a chair, and was in danger of being struck more than he had suffered.

from the JewIsh Temple, he saw white man lying on the sidewalk at AdamS and Jacasvn Street. Not Knowing if the man was drunk or dead, he escorted his wife home, then went to the nearest teie- phone and notified police headquarters. Later. on arriving at the police station he was met in the corridor by Detail Mc- Mann who got after him for not re- maining with the man until the wagon came as the man came near getting away. Mir. Cosminsky replied that he preferred escorting his wife home rather than allow her to go alone at night and felt he had only done what ordinarily could be expected of citizen.

 Mayor Mclean promised to make an investigation of the affair. MT. Cosmin- sky requested that Lieutenant Rondeau be heard as to the occurrence related. The complaint and Alderman Lyons and Michael then left the building.
 Friends of Mir. Cosminsky are urg- ing him to prefer charges of gross im- morality against the chief of police at the hearing, they alleging that the officers tyrannical conduct toward a number of citizens has become unbearable and that the quickest and easiest way to put Q quietus to him Is to show that he is an unfit man to be chief guardian of the peace. order and public morality of the city of Mobile."
 Duncan Case through his attorneys filed a motion yesterday afternooR in the Circuit Court to have one or more competent and dfsinterested physi- clans to examine Phillip Cosminsky and note his true conditions. particu- larly with reference to the injuries upon him claimed to have been inflict- ed by the defendant In the motion the defendant claims that said injuries were not great nor vital and that they did not endanger the life of the de- fendant So far no doctor has been se- lected by the court.
 There is a question which greatly concerns Sheriff Powers. Upon repre- sentation of supposed to be reliable persons, 1t was told him that pr. liar ris had pronounced Mir.
