THE LVTEllESTS AND TIIK ( , ; , PEOPLE.;, ; ... : : OW It is desired by certain ILI nredatonr interests that the jfl legislature and. not, the people . "7 shall control In certain pudiic ffA,n. is TiTidly illustrated in the effort dt the Pacific States Telephone company to break down the initia tive and referendum and the Oregon primary law. By the inltlatlTe, the people of the aUte, after tha legisla ture bad voted down such a measure, passed' the corporation tax. law. Under thati law the Pacific 8tates Telephone company, which baa been r--r.ntnr its Inst share of taxation, was taxed $9,600, which it refused to pay. The corporation went boldly into conrt with the arowed purpose of destroying the franchise tax law by. destroying, if possible, the Initia tive and referendum, by use of t which the measure waa enacted. The case is on the way to the supreme court of . the United States, where that tribunal might, of course, destroy not only the initiative and referen dum, but the many aalutary meas ures that have been enacted by the people's ballots under its operation. In its attempt in court to. break .l 1a il x I among otner wings, u, Initiative deprives the legislature or the right ,f apply to-the States for protection from domestic violence; second, that It deprive, the ie.idaUf.oC rower to apply, to con- gress for convenuons jo .propose amendmenU to the federal constltu- uon, ua Ui power-10 rmiuj bucu amendmenU; third, that it. deprive. i . j I a- A1J V I the legislature pf .tharighUo chooaei senator to congress; fourth, that the two-cent tax act la an effort to de prive the telephone company Of the equal protection of the law., and de nies right, and.. Immunities guaran teed bv the federal constitution. Thus, bv its own declaration, what the corporation" want ls! that the legislature, not" the people, anaii make law. and . elect senators to congress. It make. ' known these wants while in the very act of seek ing to escape. the Just. payment of taxes it owes to the state, it win probably fail, because it Is unpardon able wrong, and ought to fall.

The spectacle now In Oregon is pledges Tnanlng all. the ivay up the gamut from no pledge at all to the extraordinary pledge pt the man up In, Benton county who promises to Support "the choice5 of an impossi ble "majority," There are "Repub lican' voters' choice" pledges,- "ma jority' choice pledges, no pledges at ell, and straight , Statement No. 1 pledges.'' It Is a most promising sit uation for those who desire to throw the selection of senator Into the leg islature with its season of riot and revolution at Salem. The great va riety and wide difference in the pledges may set . up a condition of i ,,r fusion.'; after the lefcislature la ". i ted that will result in the de-( ftion'of all nledges.'and a free r boleo of senator by. the legislature In- cpite of the .overwhelming sent! v'nnt in favor of choice by,thejoople. if the legislature convenes and t" of the varicru. classes Of pledges is in the majority, a complexity will arise to "make confusion worse con- ,.,r,ioi and every element neces- f ?.ry to a- good old-fashioned dead lock with its corruption, .canaai ana fcfmme will,, be present. .It is exactly taa -condition desired' and conspired for by those who want legislative (.lection of senatbr. -It'iff exacuy f hat is wanted, and plotted for by . hose,wfea: base, a.fl&rjSL aawsmr rate who dares not run the gauntlet .f the eopW.

If not. what Is wis dom, what sound Judgment, ana wdm patriotism! . STATEMKXT AND AXTI CAXDI PATES. . A SUMMARY of tha standing of candidate, for tha legislature a. to their attitude on State ment No. 1. recently. published sought to show that the candidates tandlnsr bv the statement were com paratlvely few, and that members of the legislature or tnia raun woum be In a hopeless minority. It Is said that out of 158 candidates only eo have signed Statement, No. 1 while 92 sign Republican voters choice or are unpledged. " Commenting on this, the Eugene nriir uva: "This means that two thirds the Republican voters of Oregon are opposed to the statement nr consider it non-essential to the fitness of candidates for legislative dutlea." To thla curioua conclusion tf umiI nlv be reolled that "the Re publican voter, of Oregon" have had no say In the matter as yet. xnere tnip-ht h ever so many antl candi dates, and the voter, might reject nearly all of them. There are ?d m.mhi of the lerlalature to elect, and If the 6 statement candidates hnntd be elected, they would con- titnte 20 more than a majority or the legislature. Besides, there may be other Statement No. l canaiaates yet. The voter, will decide a week hence. The Tendletoa East Oregon ian present. different view from that of the Eugene paper, thus: - "What looka to be a .weeping vlc- inrr for the Statement No. 1 rorce. of Oregon is Indicated by the peti tion. -of leglslatora now. on file for tfiA nrf m&iv election A total oi it ',op th. leeiBlature have " fVt nrlmarr elec- XVl """'7 , KV " Z-ied to Statement No. 1, 65 are pledged JJ'T . . r mar be f urthe ' Jjt miMHL tJI ( LUO KUW v-w w - - -- - i-i- Ml,ntlei bjOM t . t ta Xrtoi. .titeiient W 7"? tauuiuaivai uMt w individual" Initiative, or be urged to perform a public eervlce and duty by unorganized neighbors and acquain tances.
