raised his voice to free his party from

average citizen toward political af-
talrs, have in the past made it easy
Tor two or three men at the county
seat to control and dictate PROCEEDINGS
at our party conventions and, whereas,
the state conventions and conventions
of this county have been controlled to
"a large degree by party bosses through
methods unfair to the public and to
public officers; therefore, be it resolved,
that we demand, First, the selection

state, who will represent and be ac-
countable to the people and not sub
servient to. political bosses and i'm
proper corporation influence. Second,
the selection by the people of legis-
lators both to the state senate and
state assembly, who will represent the
electorate, and not a corrupt political
machine. Third, the election of the
United States senators by direct vote
of the people. Fourth, the conserva-
tion of national resources for the bene-
mt OF the people as against private
benefit and monopolistic control, and
whereas, in reply to demand of the
common people of the state for con-
stitutional amendment that will afford
the public a voice in the appointment
of public officers. The legislature of
California in the session of 1909 enacted
a primary election law, therefore, be
it resolved that it is the sense of this
assembly that every honorable effort
should be made by the Republican
party of San Bernardino county to
afford an honest test of the efficiency
of our present primary law; and be it
further resolved that an executive
committee consisting of representatives
from the various districts of the coun-
ty be selected for the purpose of ad-
