If such there were, unconsciously they violated the duty of citizenship and were influenced by selfish consideration rather than by a personal conviction as to what they thought best for Oregon. Surely a governor would not value or want that variety of supporters, would not use sectional patronage as a means of securing approval for a pet policy which was not desired by the majority of the people of the state. The office of g'lvernor is, according- to many people, the highest honor and the finest gift within the power of a state. True. A chief executive is, nevertheless, but the servant of that state and of its citizenshin : a servant, wlmsr. rlnlv ii iJ to discover the will and wishes of the people, to execute those wishes, not to dictate them. If the people of a state vote for the construction of some public institution without voting how the expense shall be met, it is the duty of the governor and the legislature to see that it is constructed. If that governing group suggests a certain means of revenue and the voters disapprove that means, the duty is unchanged. It simply remains for those to whom authoiit.v lias been delegated to find some other means of revenue that will be satisfactory to the people, dif ficult and puz.ling as that job may be. In view of these obvious considerations we are quite sure that Mr. Patterson was either misquoted or spoke thought lessly at a time when he was naturally disappointed over the defeat of what he consideird to l. a prop,.,- and prompt .solu tion for Oregon's financial difficulties. The construction of n i i . i me new minimi aim u miosis hospital are mandates of the people, but they aie no less so than the operation of ex isting institutions wind, have had the approval of voters in elections gone by. We aie confident that the governor is cognizant of those mandates and that his interest in the wel fare and advancement of the state of Oregon is so great and so sincere that an adequate solution will be possible within the next year or two. In seeking a solution we are equally confident that he, and the legislature, will have the serious attention and aid u( the people ol' Oregon.
