BRYAN PLAN NOT
FULLY INDORSED
Proposal to Make Vice-President
Cabinet- Member
Causes Discussion.
OPINIONS DIFFER WIDELY
Division of Sentiment Not Along
-Party Lines No Constitutional
Authority Exists for Change in
the Present System.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, July 25. The announcement
of William J. Bryan that he will, if
elected, give his Vice-President a seat
at the Cabinet table has opened up an
unusually brisk discussion of the ques
tion pro and con. The scheme has its
champions and its opponents, and di
vision of sentiment does not follow
party lines. But even among those
who favor the Idea, it Is admitted that
there Is no authority for admitting the
Vice-President to Cabinet circles.
As a matter of fact, the duties of the
Vice-President are defined by the
Constitution, and that state paper falls
to delegate to him the duty of sitting
with the President and Cabinet
Neither does the Constitution empower
the President to confer this function or
right upon the Vice-President It was
not the Intent of the framers of the
Constitution that the Vice-President
should do more than Vice-Presidents
have done in the past preside over
the Senate and wait for a vacancy to
occur in the White House.
The time may come when Congress
will take up and consider the ques
tion of enlarging the duties of the
Vice-President and the attitude of Mr.
Bryan In calling attention to his per
sonal view may 'pave the way to ac
tion. But until the Constitution is
amended. It Is not likely that any Vice
President will be officially recognized
as a member of the President's
Cabinet.
Lend Dignity to Office.
Those favoring the admission of the
Vice-President to Cabinet councils
maintain that this added duty would
lend dignity to the office and make it
more attractive to men of caliber who
are now ' inclined to avoid the possi
bility of nomination as "running mate"
for any Presidential nominee. But per
has the strongest argument so far ad
vanced for the change is that the Vice
President attending Cabinet meetings,
would be In close touch with the af
fairs of the Government, otherwise
known as the affairs of the Adminis
tration, and would be better equipped
to succeed to the Presidency in case a
vacancy should occur at the White
House, than he would be if isolated as
he is at present
As a member of the Cabinet he would
know the inside of all public questions,
and -would be intimately assoclaced
with all the policies of the Adminis
tration. As' presiding officer of the
Senate the Vice-President knows little
of the "inside" and is not necessarily
in harmony with the Administration.
On the other hand, aside from the
constitutional question Involved, It Is
argued that a Vice-President is usually
enough of a policician to understand
the ins and outs of all the public
questions of the day, ana even though
not admitted to Cabinet conferences, is
able to gather up about as many facts
as he could by sitting around the Cabi
net board.
Can Consult Him Now.
In cases where his advice Is desired,
it can readily be had under the pre
vailing system, and when the Vice
President is not in harmony with the
Administration, as has happened not
Infrequently, it would be lnadvable
to have him sitting at Cabinet meet
ings. The Administration might favor
a certain policy; the opposing faction,
of which the Vice-President happened
to be a member, would hold different
views. By being present at Cabinet
meetings, the Vice-President would
learn the moves made by men really
his opponencs, and would be in a posi
tion to lay bare the plans of the Ad
ministration, and perhaps prevent the
successful carrying out of an Admin
istration plan.
Take the next Administration as an
example. While for all practical pur
poses, Sherman is in harmony with
Taft yet the fact remains that Sher
man has all along trained with the
anti-Roosevelt or reactionary crowd In
the House of Representatives. Taft
has been a foremost Roosevelt man.
Naturally there are questions of public
policy on which Taft and Sherman
differ.
The time may and probably will
come when Taft, as President, may de
sire to- formulate and carry out some
question of Governmental policy. That
policy will be shaped up by his Cabi
net, and the shaping may require the
utmost secrecy. If Sherman were to
be admitted to the Cabinet he would
know exactly what was going on, and
who doubts but others of his fac
tion would know also? Taking ad
vantage of their advance Information,
they might be able to block the Ad
ministration. Not that they would or
would not do so, but they might
Reason for Opposition.
This, say the opponents of the Bryan
idea, is a very important reason why a
Vice-President should not go Into the
Cabinet It is also argued that when
ever fate calls a Vice-President to the
Presidential chair, he is thrown upon
his own resources to a great extent,
and Is quite as able, with such knowl
edge as he possesses, to go ahead with
the job as he would be if he had served
in the Cabinet Roosevelt was not in
McKlnley's Cabinet, but he made a
greater President than McKinley; Ar
thur was not in Garfield's Cabinet, but
he was not handlcapepd by that fact
when he became President, and even
the staunchest Bryanites will argue
that Johnson would have made a bet
ter President had he been In Lin
coln's Cabinet.
However, the Bryan idea is worthy
of consideration and is receiving Its
lull share or notice during the anti
campaign days.
CALLS JOHXSOX TO FAIRVIEW
Bryan Wants Defeated Opponent
Take Stump.
' ST. PAUL. July 25. Governor John
A. Johnson, of Minnesota.- today re
ceived a letter from William J. Bryan,
asking him to meet Mr. Bryan at Fair
view, Lincoln, at the earliest date pos
sible, to confer relative to the Presi
dential campaign. Mr. Bryan asked
Governor Johnson when he could be
available for speaking purposes.
The latter question Is asked, Mr.
Bryan says, because of the numerous
requests that have been received for
Governor Johnson for speaking dates
in the various states. He says the de
mand in this respect Is general and ha
hopes the Minnesota Governor will be
able to give him his attention. Mr.
Bryan refers to the visit made him at
Lincoln by the Minnesota delegation to
the Denver convention. He was told
then that Governor Johnson would be
available when wanted, and he now
hastens to request his presence at Fair
view, that details concerning the cam
paign may be talked over.
Governor Johnson is on a lecture
tour, but the contents of Mr. Bryan's
letter were wired to him. It is ex
pected that on its receipt Governor
Johnson will go to Fairvlew.
DARE NOT REJECT HUGHES
ODELL
SAYS
IXDEPEXDEXT
VOTERS
WOILD REVOLT.
Leaders Would Prefer Another, but
Dare Sot Alienate His Sup
porters IVom Ticket.
NEWBURGH, N. T., July 26. Ex
Governor B. B. Odell, state committee
man, from the Twentieth District, said
today concerning the announcement of
the candidacy of Governor Hughes for
renomination:
"Governor Hughes' statement is no
surprise to me. It Is exactly what I
have been predicting for the past six
months. There is no question but
what the organization will accept Mr.
Hughes, because to turn him down
would cause, the withdrawal of inde
pendent voters from the support of the
Republican state ticket.
It is a fact, also, that In every lo
cality the so-called leaders, in my opin
ion, would prefer some one else; but
up to this time there has been no crys
tallization of sentiment In favor of any
particular candidate in opposition.
"Much as we desire, we cannot close
our eyes to the fact that there are dis
sensions in the party lines. Ambitious
persous who are anxious to succeed
Senator Piatt will not look on the can
didacy of Mr. Hughes with any favor.
They would prefer some one who would
openly espouse their cause. Hr. Hughes'
holding aloof from,, all combinations
or alignments with any of the factions
in the party would make him more
generally satisfactory to the voters
than any other man whose name has
been under consideration. Just how his
nomination would affect the energetic
support . of those who look after the
details of a campaign It is too early
to predict"
Roosevelt Makes Xb Comment.
OYSTER BAY, July 25. President
Roosevelt said today he had no com
ment to make at this time regarding
Governor Hughes' announcement that
he would accept a renomination.
MAKES NEW PRECEDENT
Proposal That Commission Approve
Rates Before Effective.
WASHINGTON, July 25. If the sug
gestion made in a resolution adopted
by the railroad officials, who met in
Chicago yesterday, to the effect that
the reasonableness of proposed in
creases of freight rates should be
passed on by the Interstate Commerce
Commission before becoming effective
should be acted upon, a new precedent
will have been established. Chairman
Knapp, of the Commission, today stated
that he believed the law contemplated
having the Commission pass upon rates
after they become effective, but ha
did not wish to commit the Commis
sion to that view.
