The case came before the court on a suit by Lessard, Multnomah county senator, for an Injunction to prevent Earl Snell, secretary of state, from declaring ma seat va- ' ' cant and thus causo appointment of a successor by the county com missioners. Moody completed his opening statement at the noon adjourn ment. Ho will be. followed by coun sel for Lessard, Klloil Wiitkiim, Charles W. Roblson aud John Kuste, with Moody being allowed opportunity for rebuttal late to day. It was expected that Judge Winter would he able to take -the case under advisement by night- lull. Lessard said ho was elected to the senate In November, 1934, and also held an appointment of not ary public, a situation which has already resulted In the resignation of several- legislators from their posltions as notaries public In . view of a ruling by Attorney Gen eral 1. H. Van Winkle that It amounted to holding two public offices contrary to the state constitution. .The senator also said he held the office of attorney for the bonus commission, being appointed to that post in Maif-h, 19:15, but be argued that neither of these ap pointive positions was lucrative offices within the moaning of the, constlliuion iinu iiiul - uu co.uiu, theruiorc, hold them legally as Well as act In the capacity of a lagislutor, Constitution Cited J Moody, offering a review of the . clrcumstnnces behind the wi lting of u provision in mo coiiHiiiuiion . dividing the runcuons of goveni ' incut into legislative, Judicial mid ' executive brunches, fluid tho con stitution prohibited a person from Jfoldlng an ortl.es- or appointment Under ono branch nnd exercising lit the same tlmb uny functions linder the other; In ' at discussion Of histor ical background,- Moody traced the development of this principle In Amorlcuu government, showing ijiat Thomas Jefferson, dissatisfied HUh tho lack of clarity In the ted- ih'iil constitution, had written the first section ot the Kentucky con Ktltutlon separating tho three branches. ' . i Out of .this cunio the model tor All state constitutions, including tjuit or Oregon, he said, i ' Other Cases Ousted i Moody preseiitnd decisions from lliany courts upholding the conten tion that a member of the legisla ture cannot accept an - officio in olther of the other brunches of gov- fp-nment ami still retain his legig i lutlve seat and thut 'election or itnnolntmeut to such other office Vacates his meuiberslilp In the leg islature.
