PLAIN TRUTH
The Portland Oregouian haabeen, or
the past twenty-five years, a source of
information and Insuiration to the editor
of this paper and all other Oregon editors
who were capable o! appreciating ifre.it
ability and a power ol expression etiual-
ed by few writers and excelled by none
in the I'nited States. For over fifty
vears its editor ha-, with few exception,
used his great ability for the puhlic good
We bcleive he has always adhered to
what he eoucieved to be the right, and
his advocacy of great principle! 1ns been
fearless, and has not waited upon popu
lar approval, lie has been a true lender
of public thought and after the scepter
lias fallen from hi bauds there w.il I
no dissenting opinion aruoui; the leser
light of jou:nli-iu as to his preemi
nence. Hi brethren of the country
press delight in 8'inging him occasional
ly and feel perfectly satisfied alien tliey
make the old linn roar It shows that
tie is iiu in art and has human wenkneas-
ess In response to a recent puncture
to his cuticle he avows; ".Senators) will
come and go; but no luin again will
holh the piim.icy in the journalism of
Oregon for fifty yeaiu."
It's nil very true, big fellow, and
Oregon is fond cf you. Never doubt
that, when the time co.i.es for you to
shuffle oil this moit.il coil the Oregon
you hava ved so well will do full
honor to your greatness. All ti.ce lit
tle matters will be forgotten then; all
the acrimony of personal and political
discussion will le obliterated and Ore
gon will grieve over the loss of i'.s fore
most citizen and advocate
PLAITS OPINION
The Oregonian quote", approvingly,
the opinion of the n jl .rioiis .Senu'or
Piatt, of New York, ngairmt the State
ment So. 1 metiiod of el cting I'nited
States Senators. It is certain that nl!
senators of the I'Ult Stripe ;i'e opposed
to the Oregon i lea or ally oilier fip-lioda
that tends toward the election M eil
, atora by direct vote of !Ik) peopl.v The
present method ejnetly pull them
They liave been aide, fur very many
years, to pun-linsc the legislatures of j
uieir siau: or v control iiieni uy me
power of patronage. The lystem under
Which they were elected has brought the
Senate into disrepute with the people
to tttch an extent that It Is considered
an enemy of the public w ifur-, imrl t-i
belong to It i." no longer cmi'iili I'-d all
honor. Il is trie citadel of the truis
and c rporatioiis, and any method 'hat
promises relief should b availed of to
change its personnel ho that it will in
in some degree represent ihe popular
will. Statement No. 1 attempts to d
this, and, even tnougli its application
results in tin) election of t) ;rn cratic
.senator! in Republican s ate the peopl;
perfer it to the old methods aii'l will nol
be persuaded to relinquish it. ft is
Idle, however, to attempt to convince
the people that the defeat of Mr. Cuke
was brought about by Statement No. 1
Republicans, fie was defeated by tho-e
who thought Chamber lain would not be
elected by the Legislature, no mutter
what vole i.e receive), and that then
they would have the rcjw(;r to niiuiu the
next United Slides Senator. Had tiny
believed there would be a Statement
No. 1 majority in the Ig'slntiire, and
that the members would be true to their
pledge, they woild have voted lor Mr.
Cake, notwithstanding he w.is not llie.r
