On Sunday; At Keyboard, A Prophet With Honor

SEVEN decades of deadlines have come and gone for David Horowitz and he is still filing three times a week as a reporter, hacking away from a paper-stacked slum of a desk, his typewriter a clacking relic, his wizened outlook worthy of "The Front Page" characters who bark cynically at life's endless stories and tiresome deadlines. But he is a far gentler soul who predates "The Front Page," however much we search for the goose-necked phone amid the desk trash, hoping he'll demand, Sweetheart, get him Rewrite, so he can confide he has Boutros Boutros-Ghali concealed in a rolltop desk for an exclusive interview.

In Last-Minute Rites, Salinas Weds Democracy

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 14 As ever, he hurries around the country, snipping the ribbons on new highways, forgiving farm loans to peasants, preaching a gospel of Mexican change. But in the twilight of his power, President Carlos Salinas de Gortari has a new religion. Having sought for most of his administration to hold back pressure for greater democracy in order to carry off sweeping economic changes without jeopardizing his party's 65-year hold on power, Mr. Salinas is now embracing the country's demands for political reform. - With the approach of elections next Sunday, he has called on Government officials to refrain from the sort of fraud that stained his own presidency, pressed for more impartiality from the television networks that have often been his propagandists, and made peace with some of his bitter critics. Perhaps most important, he has repeated again and again that he will observe a basic democratic mandate that has gone untested in Mexico since his Institutional Revolutionary Party, the PRI, was formed in 1929: Mr. Salinas, who is barred from re-election under the Constitution, says he will turn over power to whoever wins a fair vote regardless of the party the victor represents.

As if luring voters out of their growing political apathy and Election Day ennui is not hard enough in California, campaign strategists around the state are facing a new impediment: the trial of O. J. Simpson. With jury selection expected to start on Sept. 15, just seven weeks before voters choose a governor and senator, 52 members of the House and 100 state legislators, the trial seems certain to grip public attention for months. That prospect has left candidates in California scrambling to find new ways to get their faces seen and messages out, especially in Los Angeles, the state's largest market.

Treasury Secretary Lloyd Bentsen has not begun a formal search for a replacement for Mr. Altman, who damaged his credibility with his Congressional testimony on Whitewater, but Mr. Newman is the official most frequently mentioned in the White House and the Treasury Department, said the officials, who insisted on anonymity.
