ITLTOX AM) THE SENATORS HIP.
SENATOR FULTON tells The
Journal's Washington ' corre
spondent that he Is still of the
opinion that members of the
legislature should regard , their bath
to the constitution of the : United
States as of the first importance and
should i therefore rote according to
their choice or preference, rather
than adhere to Statement No. 1, and
in doing this they should elect a
man of the same party as a majority
of the legislature. , The senator re
fers to a remark of his '"some years
ago" in which he said that In adopt
ing the primary law the people, did
not Intend to require a member of
the legislature to vote for a senator
of a different party, -
However that may have been then,
there is no doubt that everybody
understood this year that Statement
Ko. 1 meant just what it said. Not
a candidate subscribed to It who did
not knowjust jwhat It meant, to-wtt:
THE LESSON OF THE ELECTION
..,Pobiuh -f-HE EXPERIENCE of Mr. Pul-
1 I tpn, duplicated by .Mr. Cake,
' 8 baa its full significance. ; A
I , mind open !.to, conviction tan
not fail to understand its meanine,
Mr. Fulton refused to support State
ment No. 1, and . was defeated. Mr,
Cake refused; after the-primaries, to
support Statement'No: 1. and was
aereated. v Their attitude" "was identi
cal; -the fate that came'td them the
same. jEven the. Oregonlaa admitted
that MrT - Fulton's attitude on the
subject was a factor in Ills defeat.
AH. Oregon knows that. but for that
attitude, Mr. Fulton would have de
feated Mr Cake for the nomination
by a heavy vote, v
Mr. Cake was warned in time to
have saved himself from overthrow.
The Journal warned him. His State
ment No 1 friends must have
warned him. He made - the fatal
blunder of failing to understand the
temper of the plalri people with ref
erence to Statement No.. 1. , All the
politicians made the same blunder,
The man next to the soil has his
mind made up on the subject. ' He
has waited these 30 years for his
opportunity. ; He has wearied with
the biennial 'shame and scandal at
Salem, He has found a way to pre
vent ; it. and he Is going to insist
on use of the right to do so, ' Those
who expect by hocus - pocus or
cajolery: to cheat him out of it do
not know their man. They -live in
towns and cities and have so little
contact with him that' they under
estimate his intelligence and mis-
udge Ma temper. They - are ; pro
ceeding on, the false hypothesis that,
after be has once secured the right
to name the senator, they can take
that right away from him. . They
might as 1 well undertake to . make
the rivers run up hill, or to uproot
the mountains, as to compel him to
Klve this right up to them. , Mr,
Fulton defeated,' Mr Cake defeated
ought to be ; evidence enough. ' If
they are not convinced by those
events, they will be convinced later
on. - Brick houses will continue to
fall 5 on them until conviction will
ultimately .come. .-- ;v3
When Mr, Cake turned his back
on Statement No. I, after he . had
successfully used advocacy of the
measure to beat Mr. Fulton, he
doomed himself to defeat. .The Jour
nal, told him so, but be refused to
listen. : Had he pursued a bold, un
compromising policy toward State
ment No. 1 after the primaries, such
as he i pursued - before, (Governor
Chamberlain could not have' been
elected;;" Desertion of Statement No.
1 cost Mr, Cake thousands of votes.
A comparatively, few of those votes
would have turned ' the scale in his
favor. : He knows it, and all Oregon
now knows it. It is the fault of no
body but of Mr. - Cake himself. He
played the same game Mr.;- Fulton
played, and he lost In the samelyiy,
any man who Juggles with the meas
ure will doom himself politically. It
has meant political suicide twice, and
that is exactly what it will continue
to mean. The handwriting is on the
wall,"; and if ; Republican politicians
will interpret it aright and uphold
the primary law and Statement No.
1, great harmony will come to their
party. V If they do not, and continue
to butt their heads against a atone
wall,' defeat and , disorder is- their
certain future. , - , .
WHEN AMERICA IS GROWN

that he would vote for that man for
senator who received the . highest
vote in the popular election. And
as to the constitutional excuse, that
is really too finical and technical for
any intelligent and honest member
to consider seriously. The formal
duty of electing a senator still de
volves on the legislature, of course;
but members-elect of that body Con
stltutlng a majority have pledged
themselves to elect fh, "people's
choice. There Is no intimation In
the constitution that members of
legislatu re may not -do th is. ; , They
chose, to make this promise to jtbe
people; hence the people's -choice Is
necessarily ; their choice, for it be
comes so as a result of that pledge.
Senator Fulton seems to intimate
In his Interview ; that Republican
members of the legislature may dis
regard their pledge to the "people
and elect a Republican, but we hope
the senator does not mean to be, so
understood, and we do not belif ve
that any Statement No. 1 . member
will take that view of the case. , It
Is intimated in some quarters that
Mr, Fulton will still be a formidable
candidate before the legislature for
reelection, but this we cannot credit.
In his Corvallia speech of August
8 0, 1907 v. Senator Fulton, after
talking along the lines above indi
cated, said: " ' ' ' J
"It may be thought by some that
my position -on this subject is the
result of; a desire on my part to
rave the way to an appeal to the
legislature - for "reelection , should . I
rail to secure approval of my candl
dacy by the voters. I assure you that
I nave no-such thought or purpose;
If it should happen that some other
candidate receives a larger vote for
United States senator than I do,' at
the election to be held next June,
I promise you now that I will retire
from the field and will not permit
my name to be presented to the
legislature for ; that or any other
office." , . . f ,
He thus indorsed the principle of
Statement Xo. 1 himself. ? And this
was not , an offhand, unconsidered
remark. It was made In a carefully
prepared, typewritten speech, with
which Senator Fulton opened his
campaign for' reelection. As It hap
pened, he was eliminated from con
sideration by his party In April, so
that he would have even less excuse
than I! he had won then to appear
as a candidate next winter,-and by
the rula Fulton laid, down for him
self Mr. Cake would not be a candi
date. -Mr, Fulton in effect said that
if the people rejected him heTwonld
not ask the office at the hands of
the legislature, and Mr, Cake pre-
r umaDiy eniertams the same view-
indeed, on several , occasions he Bald
cometalng to that effect,
By Senator Fulton's' own showing

A FATAL CONVENTIOX.
E'
DITOR HOFER of the Salem
Journal, who did what be, could
under . adverse circumstances
for Mr.. Cake, probably ex
pressed the fact when he said that
the action of the Republican , state.
convention "In putting only Its shelf-
worn materials In its show window
was'enough to defeat Cake. f The
leaders In the convention, as Mr.
Hofer views. It. "Insulted the reform
elements In the Republican party by
their Indirect slaps atv Statement No.
1 and the direct primary In the state
platform, but not satisfied with that;
sent out speakers whose whole cam
paign consisted in flings at the pro
gressive spirit and principles for
which the better class of public mefl
are contending." , . j
- The result of the senatorial con
test, the Salem editor thinks: -"was
a victory for a man who as; a state
official "has fought " graft and ' ac
complished things for the public
good, a matter which no1 Republican
leader has, accomplished in the past
20' years. But the-people are de
manding Just the kind of things
Chamberlain stands for and his elec
tion in consequence is far reaching."
Governor. Chamberlain also points
to that fatal-convention aa the thing
that insured his election. It enunci
ated some stale partisan platitudes
and ignored or rejected the very
things that the people were thinking
about and striving for. It made
a palpable attempt to delude Hhe
people by rejecting Statement No. 1,
the primary law and the initiative
and referendum, and at the same
time supporting the candidacy of a
man for senator who professed to
be In favor of these thinrs. Those
.politicians seem lncapablOf; learn
ing that a majority 'of the people
cannot always be fooled 'by these
tricks.
v Mr. Cake was the victim partly
of ills own shifting oppositions and
partly also of the stupidly, reaction
ary work of . this convention. . He
would have been ; better off ' if the
central committee bad "appointed
delegates and electors, nd no con
vehtion ! had been held. "
Colonel Hofer also remarks:
Any Republican who 'Voted for Cham
berlaln, expecting that ha will not re
ceive hi certificate, Is doomed , to-- dig,
appointment. - There ts not : Statement
No. -1 jjian who does not ' accent", the
verdict of the people. In some quarters
there exists the belief that Statement
No. 1 men are as dishonest, as the old
line politicians when.( as 'a matter , of
fact,- they represent- - the- ' revolution
against unclean polities. The election
of Chamberlain is only -the opening gun
In, a . campaign . against the machine,
corruption, bribery and other disgraceful
features. v-v-- V-
Th present ' territory of th countrv
will be amply able to take care of that
immense number of Deonla. No one re
gards Maryland as an overcrowded
state, but if the density of its popula
tion were extended all over the country
there would be the S8S.000.000 nnnnla
predicted for the year 2000. If the den
sity of the New England states and the
states of the north Atlantic group north
Ct the Potomac were ktended the coun
try would have nearer 400,000,000. The
predicted population of 80 years hence
would (five 128 ccrrona ta the anuara
mile, leaving Ave acres to each person.
To carry the illustration a little far
ther, if the whole country had as many
peopie , 10 jig Bise- as Kliod Island It
would have a .population of a billion
and a quarter. The basis of Massachu
setts' population would carry it beyond
the billion mark. If all the states were

There is no' doubt of the ability of

quota of cltliens, even If the ma them a

Of course, these figures are made upon
the basis that all of the terrlory of the
country will be Inhabited. That can
not be hoped for. because much ef the
great mountain ranges can never; be
made habitable. Population is not
evenly distributed now, and it will never
be. The same reasons which 'have
caused the building of the metropolis of
jvmnnquan win continue to ' operate.

great cities win expand and new great

If . the report as to his salary be
correct the Guggenhelms consider
him a very valuable man in hia pro
