has been mining and leasing for the
past sixteen years. His company, he
says. would like to venture into Ne

pioneer p-rospectors aud miners, died ct
winnemucca. Humboidt County. Ne
vada. on Feb. %. 1905. Three years
ago his right hand became affected
with nicer and since last November
his condition was critical. Early In
February his arm was removed near

but he lived only three weeks after the
operation.
Deceased was . native of Ireland and
70 years Of age. He cams TO this ooun-
try when q youth and lived In Eoreks
in the early days. He owned the Mul.
doom mine on the west side Of Prospect

removed to Humboldt County, where
he followed mining and prospecting.
He made his headquarters At Humboldt

PRIMARY LAW.

A writer in the current issue of
the Review of Reviews states some
facts as to the working of the Ore
gon primary law that must give us
pause. The peoI lie of Idaho are to-
day very favorably impressed with,
and clamoring for a direct primary.
The idea that when the people par
ticipate directly in the nomination
of candidates, boss;sm and ring rule
will end, has such a strong hold on
our minds that We have overlooked
some of the ma nifest disadvantages.
The writer referred to above, who, by
the way is a strong supporter of the
direct primary idea, says that the
candidates for state Office in Ore
gon at the last election spent at
least 100000 each in getting the
nomination. He says that one candi'
date spent $75,O00.OO. If this be
true, a direct primary will eliminate
all possible chance of poor mar
ever getting a State office. The cam
paign expense of the candidate aftel
the nomination will be equally great
making a total cost of four or five
thousand dollars, an amount in Ida
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1906-09-08

no about equal to the two years sal
airy of a majority of the State offices.
Thus the poor man is eliminated at
the start, and the honest man can
not and will not make a campaign
and work two years for an empty
honor. The way for the CRATER Is
left open without opposition, and the
result will be a political ring that
would make Tammany Hall look like
30 cents. In this connection, 1t is
we'll to say that in Oregon, no ac-
cusation of the corrupt use of money
is made The expenses were all hon
orable and legitimate. The money
was spent in getting acquainted with
the people; in presenting the prin'
ciples the candidates advocated in
newspapers and magazines; in short
in publicity. Publicity costs none,
| and it is absolutely necessary under
the direct primary system. Probab
/ ly though, the Oregon law can be 81
| improved as to do away with the OBJ
jections Let us hope so II we are
to have one.
