Governor Chamberlain, In hla Inaugu ral message, dwelt at lengta-Mipon the duty of tha legislature to enact a flat aalary law. After quoting the provision of tha conatitutlon fixing tha aalarlea of tha governor and other atata offi cials, he aald: - ti . '. t . "Since the laat flection It haa been asserted in noma quartera that under thla constitutional provision no other or different aalary can be given by ;.the legislature to any or the oriicera there in named than tboae prescribed. If thla contention be well founded, tha consti tutional... provision Is - being violated every year by each and every one of the aid atate officers, for each of them now receive a aalary for'aervloaa upon the different atate boards and commla alona which In tha aggregate axceeda that named in the conatitutlon. Fur ther, in addition to the aeveral sal aries, laws have been paaaed from time to time which preacrlba achedulea of feea to ba charged byaQma of these of fice ra for tha performance of official dutlea, and theae feea. added to the aal arlea provided for aervlcea on board a and commissions, give to tha officer receiving them com pen sat Von entirely disproportionate to the services rendered the state. And therein lies tha vice of tha ayatem which baa been In vogua for many years past. "It Is difficult now. to aaoertaln un aided, by persons familiar with tha laws. ths smoluments received by some of the officers named in the constitutional pro vision quoted, and the -time has now art rived when each and all of aald officers should be placed upon such fixed annual aalarlea aa ahall afford them a compen sation commensurate with the duties performed and tha reaponslbtlltlea aa-' aumed, and In thoae caaea where feea are charged and collected auch feea ahould ba from thla time on paid Into tha atata treaaury.' ..; A Mora; Duty. Governor Chamberlain alao dismissed tha contention that tha compenaatlon of an offloer cannot ba changed during hla term, and he ahowed by numeroua de cisions and by the Journal of tha conven tion which framed tha Oregon conatitu tlon that thla contention ' la unfounded, and that no- reatiictlon upon th legis lature was oontemplated by the framera of the constitution. In aupport of thla view ba alao cited with approval utter- anoes of ex-Governor Lord, who strong ly urged upon the legislature of 1S9 tha passage of a flat aalary law. In con clusion Governor Chamberlain aald: "If tha pledgea of your platforma are carried out, and the governor, secretary of state, treasurer and .Judges-of the su preme court are placed upon reasonable annual salaries, and all fees earned paid into tha treasury, It will result In a sav ing to the state. There can ba no ques tion but that you, gentlemen, have tha power, and It la a moral duty Incumbent SALES NO upon- you to enact a law placing each and every one of tha offtcera herein named upon aalarlea commensurate with the aervlcea rendered po t? be Increased or diminished during their Incumbency, and requiring all feea, to ba paid Into the treasury as a part of the general fund, auch act to take effect at once."
