The Illness ot Mr. Ilenson caused many of the prominent politicians of the itute to study the political situa tion In Oregon. Condition are rath er muddled and If were true that tho Secretary Is In n critical condition and could not recover matter would bo still more complicated. According to the statutes of Ore gon, the Secretary nt Stato I the successor of the (Joiernor when the latter dies, resign or leave the of fice. This Is of especial Importance when It Is remembered that George II. Chamberlain, tho Governor, has received the popular vote for United States Senator and a majority ot the member nf the Legislature are pledg ed to elect Chamberlain to the Sen ate. If the Legislature elect Gov ernor Chamberlain to tho Senate to succeed Charles W. Fulton, the See ro'ary ot State will become acting flovernor until tho following general election, giving; the Secretary ot the Slate tho powers of Governor and Secretary and tho salaries of both offlces. The election of Chamberlain would mako Ilenson the acting Gov ernor and give him two of the thrsu vote In tho itnto board meeting, which mean almost absolute control of the political patronage of the stato Institution and various nnd sundry appointment. In the event ot the decease of lien- ion before the convening of the Leg Islaturc.Governor Chamberlain would have tho appointing of a new Secre tary ot State to fill the unexpired term. If the Governor appointed a Democrat and wa then himself ot ected to the Senate, he would (till leave Oregon with a Democratic gov ernor. Providing the Secretary of Stato held on until after Chamberlain's promotion to the Senate, and then died, thl would leave the two most Important position In the tate gov ernment vacant and State Treasurer George A. Steel would have to con duct the Governor's offlce, the duties ot the Secretary of State and hi own affair) aa State Treasurer, until an election could be held to All the va cancies regularly.
