ASKS WHY SENATOR
D0LPII WAS DEFEATED
Hood River, Jan. 18. To the Editor
of The Journal The Journal's editorial,
The Assasslnaflon of Oolph" is prob
ably Intended aa a general argument
agalnat the election of senators by tho
legislature.
The writer was one of those who re
fused to be driven to vote for Mr. Dolph
When the crookedness of that so-called
eauoua became apparent, when the right
to a secret psuot was disregarded, when
no Dinaing o&uot waa ever reached or
proposed, when the bosses simply sought
to manacle tne rew wno had gone Into
tne meeting unowned, i waa the rirs:
to call a halt That meeting "ault" be
fore the full program could be carried
out.
The next day. as The journal savs
Mr. Dolph lacked one vote of election.
mat lacking vote was charged up to
me, since I had come from that section
where conventions are called "rabbit
drlvea," and where members of the leg
lsiature are understood to be merely
representatives or tne ring, in is- doc
trine had never been assented to by tne.
It Is not at all certain that Mr.
Dolph could have been elected by popu
lar vote, for, though a man of ability.
tne people aid not line nia procorpora
tlon affiliations and tendencies. It be
came a question whether the people
muat accept corporation candidates for
no better reason than that they were
said to be very "stateamanllke." It Is
safe to say that the men who opposed
Mr. Dolph were united on these two
propositions; first, that having no per
sonal ends to serve they would agree
to any good Republican who did not
have the same disqualifications as Mr.
Dolph. Second, that they were in favor
of the election of senators by the peo
ple. My own resolution to this effect
which passed the house with only four
dissenting votes waa "put to sleep" In
the senate by the friends of Mr. Dolph.
If the failure to elect a ring candi
date Is equivalent to his "assassina
tion" It must be admitted that the vot
ers of the state are showing signs of
adopting the assassination business
quite unfeelingly.
Mr. Dolph could not be elected be
came the people had some represen
tatives in that legislature and for once
the game of politics would not work.
To be sure some mlatalcea wr maA.-
