Kay poured some hot shot into the
meeting when he declared that the

that Republicans should not be the

inconsistency OF indorsing the law.

HAS HE CHANGED HIS MIND?

There is one very noteworthy differ
ence between Mr.. Cake and Mr.. Fulton
Mr.. Cake favors the election OF United
States Senators by popular vote, and
is willing to leave his candidacy in the
hands Of the people. Mr.. Fulton was
once of the same notion, or, at least,
he so declared himself That was Just
after the election Of Mr.. Bourne and
Mr.. Mulkey by the Legislature. But
it would appear that Mr.. Fulton is no
longer willing to abide by the peoples
choice, or even the Republican choice.
A few days after the Legislature had
ratified the choice Of Bourne and Null
key, Mr.. Fulton gave out an interview
In which he declared that he would go
before the people for his reelection in
1908, and that he would abide by the
result. He must have been OF the
same mind few months later, when,
in Corvallis, he stated positively that
IL he should be defeated at the pri-
maries, he would withdraw from the
race and not permit the farther use OF |
his name. 1t would seem possible, |
however, that the Senator has changed
his mind, IL the papers quote him
correctly, for when asked few days
ago II he would still strive for the
Office IL beaten in the primaries he is
reported to have answered: II am
making no statements at this time"
How much better 1t would have
sounded had he come right out and
manfully declared that, IL defeated at
the primary, he would Loyalty support
the successful Republican candidate
for election In June. That is what c
every Republican will have to do, il !
the party would hope to defeat the V
Democratic candidate. 1t Is what Mr..
Fulton will expect his party to do for "
him, II he Is nominated, and 1t is what "
he should be willing to do for his p
opponent should the latter be success D
ful at the primary. 9
Surely, Mr.. Fulton would not be
willing to carry his candidacy into the u
Legislature, should another Republi. c'
can be chosen at the primary and o
indorsed by the people In June. The W
OBSERVER Is not an admirer OF the u
Senator, but 1t cannot believe that he u
would even think of pursuing 1T
such course. Consequently, IL he is &C
desirous OF seeing his party SUCCESS th
rul In electing Senator; IL he would sa
hope for that same loyal support In
The event OF his nomination that he oV
should be willing to give to another OF tn
his party, II chosen for its standard. IL
'earer; IL he would promote that har- no
nony which all true Republicans Oh
lesire, and which will be necessary II on
he party is to win in June, he will no
onger permitth statement attributed WI
him by the Washington correspond m'

County Judge of Polk County, Oregon
on the Democratic ticket, to be voted
for at the primary on the 18th Of April
1908, submits the following platform
First. I will advocate good road:
and fair distribution Of the road tax
II is not just to collect taxes from the
outlying districts, and not give the
taxpayer his share of the road work tc
make it more convenient for him to
reach market.
Second. No waste of public money
strictest economy consistent with a
good administration of county affairs
a square deal and good treatment for
every one.
Third. I will try, if nominated and
elected, to work in harmony with the
County Commissioners so far as I
think is for the good of the people.
Fourth. Should the voters Of Polk
County decide that I am the proper
PSAoCh " Iii buC OiuCG VI OOuuL1
Judge, / will give to the management
of the business Of the County the
same energetic and careful attention
that have given my own business.
Fifth, | believe in the Direct Pri-
mary. 1 think this is one of the
agencies In the hands of each elector
to bring the government nearer to the
people, and take it out of the "boss
rule" givingus "a government of the
people, by the people and for the
people"
| will say in conclusion that
served the people of this county from
1898 to 1902 as sheriff, and you can
look into my record, and if found
wanting, you can turn me down the
same as you should any man that was
lnfaithful In his trust.
