T17E TEST OP THE MATTER.
SOME of Mr. Cake's supporters
, are saying for him, if he is
; not earing for himself, that he
, 7 still stands on the principle
involved in Statement No. 1, that he
is still an advocate and exemplar of
that principle. Jt is very easy to
test this matter, and verify this
claim, MrJ Cake can do so in one
hrlef sentence, and he cannot do so
except by making, positively and un
qualifiedly, such a declaration as is
herein indicated.
Statement No. 1 means that the
legislature shall, as in duty bound
and as a matter of course, and in ful
fillment of the pledge contained
therein, elect as senator that candi
date who receives the highest vote
at the polls in the popular elec
tion. That la to say, Statement No.
1 means what It sags, and no sophis
try or Juggling or evasion will make
it mean anything else or anything
less. - .
Therefore. It Mr. Cake is still
standing squarely for Statement No.
1, as his supporters claim, he will la
all his public addresses declare that
he is In favor of the legislature elect
ing that candidate, whether himself
or Chamberlain, who receives the
larger popular- vote. And that If
Chamberlain should receive the larg
er rote,' he. Cake, will not seek or
accept, election at the hands of the
, legislature, t
Furthermore, if Mr. Cake Js sin
cerely and earnestly in favor of the
Statement No. 1 principle, he must
logically favor the election of such
men as have subscribed and pledged
themselves to that statement, for, as
any one can see, if there be not a
majority of Statement No. 1 men In
the legislature, the principle may
not and probably will not be carried
out.. ; How can a man , favor and
stand for a principle, and yet re
fuse to use or approve the only
means for carrying that principle
into effect and establishing It? He
cannot. There is only one way to
stand for the. Statement No. 1 prin
ciple; and so far, since the primaries,
Mr, Cake has refused to take that'
attitude. Just- as Senator Fulton re
fused to take It before the primaries.
The purpose of the "principle" is
to be kept In mind. It Is to elect
senators, to all practical Intents and
purposes, by the people directly in
stead 1 of by the legislatures. This
is the, direct object sought, and on
it hinge all the gain of good and
all the elimination of evil which the
change will effect. It is one of the
great reform movements in politics
of the time. The change can be
brought about only by this method
the election of pledged Statement No.
' 1' members of the legislature.
And this reform does not mean
the election of senators by a majority
or plurality vote of one party, of a
part. of the people, but of all the
people. It means government, choice,
selection, by all the voters together.
This Is popular government. It la
both democracy and republicanism.
' Is Mr. Cake really desirous to
leave his candidacy to the whole peo
ple of Oregon and abide by the re
sult? And will he advocate obe
dience" by the legislature, in either
event, to the people's will, and la
his prominent and influential posi
tion help to secure a legislature that
will beyond " doubt or cavil be so
obedient? ' If bo, he and his sup
porter can claim that he stands for
the Statement No. 1 principle, but
not otherwise.
We think the people are a good
deal, in earnest about this matter.
Tbey flo not like to be hoodwinked
and Juggled with in regard to it.
They think the effecting of this im
portant change is of more vital in
terest te-them thani the- auecessr in
a single Instance, of this or that par
ty's candidate.
' f-"'v t ' ' .. 1 1
- 1; IT IS LAtGIIABLE.
N this inexplicable campaign of (he
Cakes, what Is In the air, nrway,
and" whar the next unheard of
move that is to be made? The day
after the primarjes Mr. Cake said:
My firm conviction with reference
to the popular election ' of United
States senator and Statement No. 1,
and my earnest advocacy of that
cause. Is without doubt the 'cause
of my selection by the Republicans
of the state." Last week in, Port
land, a state convention that In
dorsed Mr. Cake's candidacy for sen
ator, a convention called to order by
W. M. Cake, a convention in which
their official party standing must
have made the Cake brothers power
ful factors, knowingly, deliberately
and purposely disowned and repu
diated the primary law and State
ment No. 1, by refusing mention of
either measure in the platform.
What makes the case significant is
that there were strong friends of
Statement No. 1 in the convention,
that Mr. Cake's nomination was one
of the arguments urged in the de
bate as indicating the Republicans
of the state are for it, and that in
spite of all this the convention's in
dorsement of Mr. Cake was made,
but the indorsement of the primary
law and Statement No. 1 was, after
debate, refused, and the platform
sent to the Republicans of the state
with the primary law and Statement
No. 1 rejected' and disowned. Will
some one who knows, please rise and
explain to the Statement No. 1 Re
publicans of Oregon, and the people
of Oregon, what it all means?
What does it mean that a conven
tion, making a platform for a sena
torial candidate to run on, repudiates
the very policy on which the candi
date, as he himself says, gained his
nomination? What does It mean that
the candidate, two weeks before the
convention and Immediately after bis
brother had been made chairman of
the campaign committee, suddenly
ceased to advocate Statement No. 1,
deliberately ignoring It in speech af
ter speech that he has since made?
Why this surrender by the Cakes,

This beats all that has been ad

came, and by electing , members of

R. GEE7R talks a great deal
with month and "pen," as he
has a right to do. We men
tion him particularly, partly
because he is typical of a good many
others, and partly because he pecul
larly illustrates the viclousness of
his theory that all Republicans
should always under all clrcum
stances vote for all candidates of
that party.
If Geer had been elected to con
gress he would doubtless have been
a docile adherent of Speaker Can
non, not only from policy's sake but
from partisanship, although he
knows that Cannon is a foe to al
most all the Roosevelt policies and
an enemy of the people In almost
everything he does.
If all Republican voters had fol
lowed Mr. Geer'a advice, the Oregon
school land frauds And scandals
might never have been shown up
there would have been no reform, no
betterment of his administration.
There would have been on the other
hand, inaction, to the great damage
;f this state.
If Geer had been governor, would
he not have protected Steel because
he Is a Republican, Instead of pro
tecting the rest of the people of the
state?
Geer argnee, in effect, that a Re
publican idiot or thief is preferable
in office to an honest, capable, con
scientious man of any other party.
There are others who agree with
Geer In this position, but they are
becoming beautifully lese.
The election two weeks from to
day is exactly the time and occasion
for the people of Oregon to make it
known once for all, and very defi
nitely and positively, that they In
tend 10 elect their own senators af
ter this. They can do so only by
electing Statement No. 1 candidates
to the legislature In every case, re
gardless of their politics. And inci
dentally. If th?y choose, they can
elect a man wife stands for this re
form, Instead of a quitter.

camp regarding the Chamberlain-Cake
candidacy, it would look to a non-parti

and much vaunted ajtate majority la go
ing x.o D auiiicient lo cereal aar. unam

badly scared. Else Why this continual
howl? Is it because they know the
people of Oregon have never found
George Chamberlain wanting in any re
spect? Ia It because he haa filled the
office of governor bo satisfactorily, that
th people seem to desire him to under
take greater responsibilities than these T
Is It because he has saved thousands of
dollars for Oregon taxpayers that with
