Of that state has shown himself the
high-minded, square politician in the
following statement:
"Oregsn has led all other states in
the union in the movement to bring
about the election of federal senators
by popular vote. Recently an amend
ment to the state Constitution was
adopted providing for direct primary
nomination of all candidates for office,
including the United States Senators.
Under the terms of this law each of the
two great parties in their primaries
nominate candidate for senator.
Later, in the general election, the
people vote for theft choice as between
the two candidates who have been
named by the political parties. The in
tent of the law is that whoever shall
receive the popular majority shall be
elected to the United States senate by
the legislature. 1t will be understood,
of course, that such a law is not mand-
story and that the legislature is not
legally bound to vote for the man re-
ceiving the popular majority. The
legislature is empowered to vote for
whom it will.

An excellent argument in favor OF
good roads was embodied in speech
recently delivered by Congressman Lee
of Virginia. He said: 81 believe the
improvement of the roads of the coun-
try is of more vital interest and import
ance to farmers of the republic than
perhaps any other we have heard de-
bated. All civilized governments build
roads, All save our own have some
established system for building and
maintaining public highways, under the
direction of skilled officials. The secre-
tary of agriculture estimates that the
cost, the extra burdens imposed upon
this country by bad roads, amounts to
not less than $500, 900, 900 annually.

OUR MOUNTAIN ROAD.

The ]. C. Yandell stage narrowly
escaped being struck by falling tree
at point west of Mountain House the
first of the week. The tree struck the
road only few inches to the rear of
the stage in which lady, child and
a gentleman were riding.
The mountain road between Sites
and Elk City has been neglected so long
that in some quarters it may appear
presumptuous on the part of this paper
to call attention to some needed i'm
Provements. The condition of the high
way is such as would spur to action an
official who was at all inclined to give
service for the salary he receives. On
either side of the road are trees that
have survived forest fires, but their
partially decayea condition makes them
dangerous to people travelling the road
when there is strong wind.
There are good citizens here who
think the salary portion, at least, to the
office Of, road supervisor should be
abolished until the county is assured of
results for the money expended. Elk
City people are told there is no money
to be used in improving the road, and if
we. ACCEPT this as truth we must con-
clude that Idaho comfy has been in
strait circumstances ever since the road
was built, for there has never been any
effort made to keep it in repair. The
Mining News offers the suggestion that
good way to create road fund is to
let the money now paid to do-nothing
supervisors accumulate in the treasury
for few years. Dischage the road
supervisors, wen see that the roads
don't ruin away.

SOME "PARTY HARMONY"

Another dramatic step was taken in
the stand pat contingent in the republi-
can fight in Iowa last week when Geo.
Perkins, the defeated candidate for gov
ernor, made the proposition to Gov. A.
B. Cummins and the progressives that
the parties submit to three members of
the national committee to determine
the question of contested delegations in
Iowa.
In other words, the situation in Iowa
stand pat camp has reached the critical
stage, and Washington help is sought in
the hope of selling out the progressive
wing of the party.
This is party harmony with venge-
ance, but every move the standpatters
have made in the present campaign has
shown that they are willing to go to any
end to attain "party haHmony" pro
vided the harmony can be found all on
one side when the deal has been con
summated.
The most amusing thing about the
new trick is that none of the dds
interested politicians in Washington
will take the responsibility of naming
the parties to do the arbitrating. All
who have been approached on the sub
ject have been silent in seven different
languages. Even Chairman Cortelyou
has considered it ADVISABLE to not
speak at this time, "and eeery party man
with political aspirations will probably
do his considering along the same line,
at least until it is more definite which
way the tide will turn.
These political maneuvers for position
that are now going on in the Iowa fight
are wonderfully educative to every hon
est voter in the country who has ex-
ercised his political right only at the
polls, with never privilege to peer
into star chamber sessions where men
are bought and sold and honor and
principle are sacrificed for party
harmony"
The Iowa fight is furnishing some
good object lessons in the game of
politics which every voter should Paste
in his hat for reference in the 1908
campaign.
