IF GOVERNOR ERRED
T'WAS ONMERCY'S SIDE
IN ASSISTING CONVICTS
Large AudienGG Applauds Executive Accuses Cake
of Having Deserted Statement No 1 and of Now
Occupying Same Possition as Fulton Before Pri-
- mary Election-Issues of Campaign Discussed.
Tho Inrgest crowd of tho season's
campaign turned out M mduy uftorn .n
to welcome Governor George R. OJmru
berlnin, democratic nominee for United
StnteR senator. Despite tht inclemency
of the weather 11 tut the unsensoiiabloness
of the hour, the Medford Opera House
was packed by an undicncc greater than
those that heard Senator Kill ton and Mr.
Cake combined. The governor was
warmly received and his remarks greet
ed with frequent applause. Kg was in
troduced in an appropriate speech by
District Attorney A. K. Kennies ns the
"next United States Senator from Or
egon." Bolicves ill People's Rule.
"T am no recent convert to the cause
of popular government, ' said Gover
nor Chamberlain. "In 1S92 T cham
pioned the i 11 it iative and referendum, j
Afterwards T advocated the direct pri-1
mary and every measure that has been1
before the people fur an enlargement
of their powers. T have always believed
in Statement No. 1, which simply means
the right of the people to elect a sen
ator. "Before the primaries, Mr. Fulton
said that he believed in Statement No, 1
personally, but thought it . should be
left to each legislative candidate as to
whether he should indorse it. Mr. Cake
came out flat footed fur Statement No.,
J, and because he did so. was Humiliated
over Mr. Fulton.
Cake Against- Statement No. 1.
"No sooner was he nominated than
Mr. Cake flopped on Statement No. i
but now takes the name position thai
Mr. Fulton took before the primaries
Hint Statement No. 1 should be left to
the individual candidal' for the legis-.
Inure. Ho refuses to support Statement
No. 1 men, and is now placing principle j
in tho rear of party.
"Because Mr, Fulton took the posi ;
tiou ho did, he was defeated. Because
Mr, Cake has abandoned his position -t
for that of Fulton. Mr. Cake will be
defeated. I 'm going to tell you a so '
cret, I 'in going to be ted senator,
not on party grounds, but simply- be
cause I repiesent the principle of popn
lar election of senators, something the
people have striven for for half ecu
tury.
Cheap Skate Candidates.
" I do not see how those cheap skates
seeking election to the legislature from
the per pie have the nerve to go before
the people and tell them that they know
better what the people want than the
people themselves. They seek to be
come public servants at $:i :t day. and
yet tell the pie they ask for votes
that they haven't sense enough to pick
out a senator. Why, they aren't worth
W a day. Most of them couldn't earn
it. If you had a man working for you,
who WHiite! to run your business, how
long would you keep him?
Securing Appropriations.
"It has been said, ' ' continued the
governor, "that I could not get appro
priations for Oregon with a republican
administration. !o yon know that the
biggest appropriation the imrt hwest
ever received was secured by Senators
Fulton and Gearin. republican and dem
AVrat. working together? Do you know
that with a solid republican delegation,
Oregon has been unable to seeur' any
appropriations sine Do you realize that
nil the southern and Mississippi states,
nil democratic, get nnd always have got
immense nppropriat ions from republi
can administrations? Do you know that
Binger Hermann got inure money for
Oregon than any other representative
ever gotf And he got them from dem
oerntie congresses as well ns repunii
cnn. He got it by being friendly with
every one.
" ft isn-'t a man's political party, it 's
the personality nnd knowledge of J Io
nian that counts, of the friend be
make in congress and out of congress,
the influence that be bring to bear
that counts.
What Is a Republican?
"How could Mr. Cake help Ins
party? If he lined up with President
Roosevelt, he will have all his party
leaders against him. If he enters his
party caucus he will have to oppose
the president program of reform.
Kittier WT he in not in a position to
ftecomplUn anything. It President
Roosevelt a republican f Then Aldrich,
Piatt nnd other party leaders aro not.
if they aro, then tho president is not.
What kind of a republican is Mr. Cake
and who will ho lino up with?
Alleged Abuse of Pardons.
"I havo been accused," continued
the governor, "of gross abuse of the
pardoning power, I am accused of having-
granted L'S7 pardons during my
term of office as chief execntive. This
statement is only partially true.
""When tirst elected governor, I be
gan a thorough study of the penal sys
tem. As a result, I stopped the cus
tom of publishing to the world the
name of released convicts whose terms
had expired. I did this so that they
might have a chance to secure work
and begin lite anew without being
branded as criminals.
"1 abolished tho system of flogging
and other physical punishments in
flicted upon prisoners. Finally I abol
ished the striped suits ns causing un
necessary humiliation. The objects of
imprisonment, aro to punish tho crim
inal,, to protect society and to care
for the soul of the criminal. If these
ends are served, the ends of justice
havo been met. So far that large class
of criminals, not hardened offenders,
but men ranging from 15 to 25, serving
their first offense, I devised a special
parole or pardon, which is granted only
on the promise of the prisoner and his
friends that he behave, report once a
month to prison authorities and agree
to drink no liquor of any kind during
his parole.
Not All Were Released.
"While I have signed many pardons,
it does not mean that 1 freed all from
prison by it. In many eases the men
left the penitentiary many years ago.
and have behaved themselves since, and
were granted pardons simply to re
store them to tho rights of citizen
ship. Many of the pardons that I have
signed were issued to t his class, men
who had already served their prison
terms and were discharged long before
1 became governor.
" I may have made mistakes in grant
ing pardons, but in all instances the
pardons wore granted at the signed
request of the prosecutors. And it is
better to err on the side of merry than
to take away from a man chance for
reformation. There are so many tin
fort una tes railroaded to prison that
only lack a kind word and a chance to
make honest men,
"The publication of this list of par
doned criminals will lose many of them
situations, when it is known they are
ex' convicts. IC will bring discourage
ment and I urn many a striving soul
backward, and all for the sake of tak
ing away n few votes from me. Bather
than resort to such tactics, I would
cheerfully stand defeat, for T had rather
be t he means of helping reform a
dozen lost souls than even to be United
States senator.'
After his speech. Governor Chamber
lain was driven to ,shlnnd, where he
spoke in t In evening. Tuesday after
noon he speaks at Gold Hill and in the
evening at Grants Pass.
