People Should Remain Awake to
Their Interests.

THE assembly, the method by
i which the corporations and
gang-rule politicians expected t.
restore their lost power, met
with overwhelming defeat at
the hands of the voters of Ore
gon at the primaries held last
Saturday. This in face of the
fact that several of the assem-
bly, newspapers in their futile at
tempts to mislead the people
had predicted the complete rout
of the insurgents. There is
nothing surprising in this VIC
tory of the Insurgency for when
one stops to consider, the fact
appears plainly that the people
of Oregon, as we'll as other states
of the Union, are an educated
people and as such are able to
reason clearly as to the best way
of upbuilding their own inter-
ests. The day when the boss
and the gang could dictate to
the majority of the people is
past and that this is a fact was
clearly proven on last Saturday
when the people selected almost
completely the anti-assembly
candidates to represent them.
The fact that a few assembly
candidates were nominated is of
no consequence and is no credit
to these candidates but simply
shows more clearly the oper-
ations of the gang. The assem-
bly, although badly beaten is by
10 means defunct. With the as
sembly candidates who received
the nomination, the originators
of the scheme together with fol-
lowers will continue to fight bit
terly for the restoration of ring
rule, the more so because they
have by the people been brought |
to bay and are now making a |
stand in the last ditch. The
people having won the first bat
tie should not become inert but
On the contrary should continue
to be awake to their interests and
lphold their principle at the gen.
eral election in November.

Study The Measures Carefully.

WITH the primary campaign
W now a thing of the past the
voters should endeavor to devote
as much time as possible toward
studying the many legislative
measur res that must be acted up
on at the November election.
This year there many measures
u p for consideration and while
many of these are indeed merit
orious there are some of such a
nature that their submission to
the electorate constitutes an
abuse of the initiative privilege.
1t is up to the voters to carefully
conside r the various bills and
pass upon them intelligently.

The People Want No More "Blun.
ders" of This Kind.

THE Oregohian now comedies
i that "The secret meeting ir
the Offices of a local corporation
for the preparation of a slate
was a gross blunder and a grave
injustice to the delegates to the
assembly" 1t is a matter o
fact that, i'll case the assembly
had been successful, the same
gross blunders" would newt
ably be committed each time the
assembly met. Itwas the effects
OF such secret meetings in the
offices of corporations to fix up
states in the old days of conven-
tions that brought the Direct
Primary to Oregon and the re-
cent secret meeting which was
held to fix up the assembly slate
will go far toward keeping it
for the people realize that the
Direct Primary gives them a
chance to express their opinions
as to the fitness Of the candi-
dates, while the assembly, with
its secret meetings and slate.

career was in the midst of ad.
versity, He was herding live,
stock at Portland and driving q
butchers wagon at Salem at the
age when other boys are at their
games. The pinch of necessity
drove him to labor when ether
lads of his age were at school OF
at their pastimes.
1t is a story of youth that
accompanies many a one of this
counsry's illustrious names. II
is the crucible of necessity that
has been the test and preparation
for many q splendid public
service. Young West was taken
from school while yet in his
teens to become messenger in a
bank. But the fibre of manhood
was in him and he rose quickly
to a position of large confidence.
His reputation spread and an
other financial instution bid for
and secured his services. Then
the commonwealth of Oregon
called him up higher and he be-
came the state land agent. 1t
was the swift working out of the
career of young man who made
good in whatever capacity he
served.
No official ever served Oregon
better than did Oswald West in
his administration of the state
land department. Itwas an ad-
ministration by a man of action.
System was introduced and order
applied. Graft was brought to
an end and business principles
installed. Land thieves were
apprehended and their stealings
recovered and added to the pub
lie domain. Go-betweens were
banished from the statehouse and
the purchaser of state lands was
brought into immediate touch
with the states agent and with
out fee or price. There had al
ways before been scandal in the
office and it is noticeable that
there has hever been scandal
since West entered the position
and cleaned it up.
For this splendid service as
state land agent, Mr.. West was
called up higher. 1t was pro-
motion and the utilization by the
state of his splendid executive
He became a member
of the railroad commission, and
the splendid work of the COM
mission is a further monument of |
his executive genius. 1t is a
work that has been done without
4 brass band, or pomp, or
1era,dry. 1t has been a quiet,
lnassuming administration of a
great trust. Its results are told
'ff every day in the great sums
hat are being saved the con-
producers and shippers
# Oregon.
Mr.. West is of the Chamber
ain school of administration.
lis training was under Chamber
ain in the two administrations
" that notable governor, which
administrations were the most
satisfactory and most popular
hat Oregon ever had.
Such has been the transition
f Oswald West from a penniless
oyhood to a candidacy for the
hief magistracy of his state. 1t
transition creditable to him
aluable to his state and sequel
} the big fact that he is a man,
OF of words, but of action.
