Visitors at the district fair which
opens this afternoon and will be open
every afternoon and evening for the
entire week will have opportunity to
listen to one Of the best bands in the
northwest and also see some good ex-
hibits of the resources and industries
of Umatilla county. Also some ex-
tremely interesting exhibits from out
side the county, most noteworthy be-
ing the exhibit by the fish and game
commission.
In preparation for the fair the in
terror of the big tented pavilion has
been cleaned and otherwise bettered'
A new coat of sawdust on the ground
improves the appearance of the same
and further work is yet to be done
There is an apparent lack of local in
terest in the fair this year and this
Ia particularly noticeable in the abb
sence of booths by Pendleton mercan-
tile houses. However in some other
lines the fair is stronger than here
tofore.
Some Fine Exhibits.
The exhibits by tfie fish and game
commission are bound to prove of es-
pecial interest to nearly all visitors
The fishery exhibit is just north oi
the band stand and is under the
charge of l. II. Wilson of the state
fishery service. The game birds are
in the stock pavilion in the rear OF
the big tent and are handled by Gene
M Simpson of Corvallis, superintend-
ent of the state game farm. The
birds were all brought from the Cor
wallis farm and arrived here tins
morning.

The idea "Jest Growed."

The idea of the national nominating
convention is neither n political inner.
itance nor conscious continuance. II
Is a product of evolution which has
''Jest growed' to meet the exigencies
Of the unique method provided by the
constitution for choosing a new presi
dent or vice president every -four
years. The constitution DEGREES that
each state shall pick as many presi
dental electors as 1t has persons rep
resentlng It IN congress-. e., two
electors to correspond to the two sen
ators from each state and as many
more as the state sends members to
the house of representatives.
The first presidents were not nomi-
mated at all. but received the votes OF
the presidential electors of their re
spective parties by sort of spon-
taneous consent. In the first two cleo
lions. those of 1859 and 1892, because
the whole nation wanted George
Washington at its head there was no
call for nominations. Upon his retire
ment the preponderant feeling of one
party was for John Adams. that of
the other for Thomas Jefferson, and ii
occurred to no one formally to set
forth what was unanimously under
stood.
In 1900 came the first hint of what
is today the national convention. While
agreed on their presidential choice in
Jefferson. the Democratic Republic
ans hesitated as to their candidate for
the vice presidency. A meeting of the
Republican congressional members was
summoned TO recommend Aaron Burr
for this office. Though small and Sc
cret. the meeting Is noteworthy not
only because ii was the first congress
sional caucus, but because 1t was the
first thing to be done In the way OF
party nomination.
From 1900 to 1924 nominations were
made by congressional caucuses The
death knell of this method was sound
ed by public sentiment, which cried
out against the practice as being an ar
rogant usurpation of the rights of the
people.
A solution was not at once forthcom-
ing. The present day national conven,
ton was undergoing a series of meta
morphoses from 1924 to 1910, nomina
tons being irregularly made by state
legislatures, popular meetings and res.
outions of Endorsement of "a favorite
SON" Gradually the party conventions
took shape until in 1910 was evolved
the plan that obtains today.

Getting Down to Business.

The next sitting usually names per
manent chairman. Then the report of
the resolutions committee, which con.
tains the platform or the principles and
program of the party, is read and or
dinaEily sustained. Follows the real
business of the convention. when the
roll of the states is called. "Ohio" is
sung out from the desk, and promi-
nent delegate from Ohio rises, steps to
the rostrum and proposes with orator.
cal flourish the Ohio candidate. The
roll call completed and all candidates,
ranging from perhaps seven to twelve
in number. proposed. the business of
balIoting begins.
As the clerks run down the roll from
Alabama to Wyoming the chairman
Of each state announces the various
numbers of votes for each of the candi
dates from his delegation, except where
the unit rule prevails, in which case
the whole vote of the delegation goes
to the one candidate who has major.
ity of the delegations votes. That con-
testant is selected under the Republic
an rule who receives a majority-un
der the Democratic, two-thirds of all
the votes. Not always is the candidate
chosen on the first ballot. There may
be many rob calls before any one wins
the requisite majority.
In 1852 the Democrats agreed on
Franklin Pierce only after forty-nine
ballots had been taken. The Wings in
that year went four better than their
opponents in selecting General Scott
OF recent years, or, accurately, since
1892. there has been little doubt as to
the nominee. In that year both Mr..
Harrison and Mr.. Cleveland were
chosen on the first ballot.
