Fourth We uphold the constitution of
the United States of America, and no
portion more than its guarantee of relig
ious litwriy to be guaranteed to the indi
vidual, but not to mean that under its
protection any un-American eclesiastical
power can claim absolute control over
the education of children growing up
under the stars and stripes.
Fifth We consider the non-sectarian
free public school the bulwark of Ameri
can institutions, and the best place for
the education of American children. To
keep them such, we protest agninst the
employment ot subjects of any un-Amer
ican ecclesiastical
teachers of the public schools.
Sixth We condemn the support out of
the public treasury, bv direct appropria

Elevenlh-We protest against the gross
negligence and laxity with which the

practice of naturalizing aliens at the ex

most prolific source of the present prosti

basest uses.

Noted Editor'i Funeral.

late editor of the Post, was buried today
with demonstrations ot affection and es

a private funeral in Washington. Every
leading newspaper man in Washington
was present, as well aa many senators
and others prominet in official life.

tion. The adoption of the Initiatve and
referendum this year is clearly recog
nized by these two great parties as the;
one issue of supreme importance in Ore
gon. Next to this is the preservation of
the Australian ballot law, and on thin
measure, also, both parties are agreed.
Not a populist or democratic candidate
hat refused to pledge himself to the
initiative and relerendum. Judge W. P.
Lord, republican candidate for governor,
writing under date of May 3, declined to
express himself in favor of this reform or
to make any pledge, saying he expects to
lie guided by his party platform. At
this date only one republican outeide of
Clackamas county has pledged himself
in favor oi submitting the question to a
constitutional convention. Nearly all
have ignored our letters.
BEPCBLICAN THS STRONGEST.
"There is good reason to believe the re
publican party is stronger nearly every
where than either the people's or demo
cratic party alone. There ia just as good
reason to believe ihe people's and demo
cratic parties, combined, are stronger
everywhere than the republican partv
alone This is an extraordinarily good,
year for republican success. It is easily
possible that a single senator may kill
our bill in the senate, or that the vote of
one republican representative in the
house may defeat the act calling a con
stitutional convention. If it should be
defeated, the reform would then certainly
be delay ad two years, and if Judge Lord
is elected, not lesa than four years, at
the beat. A republican majority of one
in each house would very probably re
sult fn the enactment of the infamous
Durham ballot bill next winter, thus
destroying our Australian ballot." The
Durham ballot law was passed by a re
publican majority of just one in each
house at the last session, and not a dem
ocrat or populist voted in its favor. Ia
Multnomah county and Portland the
populists, democrats and other friends of
these two great reforms have nnited on a
single ticket, except for state officers. A
strong effort was made to include the
independent republicans, also,' in this
j union, but it failed for the single reasou
jthat they rejected the initiative and
I referendum. The bitterest opposition to
this union was inspired by republicans
who said they would vote a populist 'in
the middle of the road' ticket, but 'no
combine.' We have aiwavs heard the
same song from the same class, and, on ,
election riav, not one of these has
'scratched' the ticket for 25 years.
LIT ALL JOIN HANDS.
"Now I ask all friends of the initiative
and referendum populists, democrats
and others if they will not be acting
the part ot wise men to also unite in
every county in the state on these de
mands, and by mutual concessions and
resignations from the ticket leave but
one legislative ticket in the field op
posed to the enemies of this reform?
I beg that you will consider it very care
fullv, and absolutely without prejudice.
It seems to me it would be criminal folly
to remain separated, and to muke it pos
sible for the enemies of a people's gov
ernment to conquer us in detail. Of
this belief are many of the wisest men
among our friends. I know only of one
exception to this opinion. In my judg
ment, the only possible justifiable excep
tion to this union would be in counties
where the republican candidates are
pledged in favor of this great reform
Because ot this great prejudice in the
people's party against any action which
The Oregonian might call fusion, I have
not asked any man to sign this letter
with me, but, if my efforts in the cause
of reform, both for the ballot law we
have and ths initiative and referendum
we hope to get, shall have any influence
with you, I most earnestly pray that it
may all fall on tbe side of a union among
all friends of lawmaking by direct vote
of the people. Where such union is
formed it will be more effective if it is
completed and the resignations filed with
the proper officers before May 20. There
is no time to lose. The 'middle of the
road' is an initiative and referendum
legislature. We cannot be sure of
getting it anv other way than by union
of all its friends on a single legislative.
ticket.
