song was appreciated in Its melodious
beauty; the flashing "Ride of the Val

fireclatlvely. In , truth, I believe Port
and has seldom seen a better behaved
and mora constantly interested- audi
ence than last night's and Incidentally
it was the largest audience that has ever
heard a musical program hers.
Madams Nordica's appearance was the
signal for thunderous applause and she
was certainly apprised of her popularity
In Portland. As a pretty compliment
she wore the Hose Festival" colors, pink
and green, a crown of La France roses
and a shoulder bouquet of them. And
with her first . notes her personality
pervaded the vast hall to the farthest
corner of the gallery. Bhe 'was vocal
warmth and power personified. The
Elisabeth aria was sung first and her
dramatlo ferver thrilled everyone In

"Every member of the) legislature,

or not, ought to vote for Chamberlain
for United States senator. The mem

' "Two years ago I waa a hold-over

voted for the people's choice, though he
was not my choice. If I were In the leg
islature now I would vote for the peo

nnt I was nledared to Statement No. 1,
because I would consider
that as a
servant of the people I should observe
their expressed will. Republican votes
elected Chamberlain last Monday. so
why should not a Bepublloan legislature
ratify those votes? Of course, the legis
' lature should elect Chamberlain."

' George C Brownell of Oregon City Is
Mtnnkn 4n his oDlnion .that the mem
bers of the legislature should harken
to the voice Of the people and elect th;
senatorial candidate who has received
the popular vote at the polls. -"In
the first plaee," hs said, "certain
leading interests of Fortiana for sev
eral years made a bitter 'fight against
the Mitchell and the Simon machines.
They then were An favor of destroying
all machine rule In politics. The result
Was the primary legislation of Oregon.
- "These Interests were undoubtedly in
sincere and their efforts were largely
made for the purpose of constructing
a machine that they could control and
dominate and Jn this they have failed.
Now they are trying to destroy the
Republican party in the state by ad-
vising - and leading it to disobey the
expressed Will of the people at the
polls. :. -i - .'
Too Xats Vow.
"If these men or interests did not
want George B. ; Chamberlain to be
elected It was their duty to have made
sn as:a:resslve fight in favor of the
Bepublloan nominee. They undoubtedly
failed to do this wun us nope oi tnrow
ing the fight into the legislature with

wiBhes of the people of this sta'te

"We have elected three representa

they should fait which they will not

Her group Of songs: that followed ths
Interlude was delightful. . "Spring"

tle touch, and "Arietta" (Vidal), which
soms might consider her most cap tl vat
Inr work of the evening, were all wild
ly applauded and It was after this that
the houss rose in its seats and insisted
on her return. "The Year's at the
Spring," that pulsating Joyous song of
Mrs H. H. A. Beach, was given in en
core, and with a little less arjanaon ana
more ststeliness than is usually sung
Into It she showed a new phase of the
lovely iirus song.
Her most difficult work v came It)
Isolde's Liebestod and tragedy rang
through it, It was her supreme moment
and the audience appreciated it. y, ,
It mutt be a trying thing to ! sit
through ths entlrs prelude, to feel the
muslo vibrating to ths center of One's
being and yet nave to sit still till ons's
note is struck. - And soms of madams's
notes, I thought, sounded Ilka the- wall
ing of the deep notes of a violin' with
the most delicate vibrations jioticeable
In Its vsry poles, ? Grand that poor
overworked word Is the expression one
must perforce apply to her voice. It Is
grand and majestic, -.,
When all is told, I believe that the
orchestra's supreme moment was in ths
last movement of the Tschalkowsky
"Symphony Pathetlque," which was
played in the afternoon. Splendid work
was done in the Beethoven C Minor, and
splendid work in the Wagnerian num
bers, but to me that magnificent dirge
seemed the crowning moment As one
musician said: "I wanted every one to
fo off and die alter tnat numter: i
ldn't want to hear a sound." But fate
was tot kind and the effect had to be
broken by ill-suited applause. Of eourss
the publlo deems that the best way to
show appreciation. But the apprecia
tion that is struck dumb, that Is lnoa-
pable of expression, is Higher.
The en-
tire svmrjhonv
a beautiful thing,
beautifully InierDrsted.
There have been times when the pub
lic was glad a series of muslcales was
over, I don't think this was . a case.
The concerts vibrated with life .. and
spirit and no one's Interest flagged.
Damrosch Is a wonderful conductor, a
man of foroe and individuality and he
Impresses this upon the people through
his orchestra and through 'himself. And
few became tired enough to leave bepre
the program was over. And for a
crowd that filled the Armory to the
back sests of ths gallery, and stood up
around the walls, to keep its Interest
sustained to the last of such a program
as was given last night, is an accom
plishment and any one, whether it be
ue manager, the director, the orchestra
eary out tha people's wlllr ths result
would be a Democratic "stats for ths
next 18 years. Ths idea of this contest
simply means this: That . tne people
of Oregon will have but one machine
in Oregon, and that machine will be the
machine of the neoole and the voters.
and thsy will insist th having, their
wisnes carriea out,
- , Sleet Own Benators.
' "The people have found out that they
cannot depend upon the senate of the
United States to change the- method of
electing United States senators, and so
far as the stats of Oregon ts con
cerned at least the people propose to
nominate and elect their United States
senators Instead of allowing them to be
made by a combination of special Inter
ests ' of the state by and through- the
oia macnine metnoaa ox pontics.
ir those individuals who are now
opposed to Mr. Chamberlain had wanted
to defeat him tha time to have done It
was at the ballot box. The people de
cided against them' and now they have
got to tane tneir medicine" '
"Settled by the reopte."
W. B. Ayer Is another Republican
wno cannot conceive or sucn a thing as
the legislature's failing to elect Gov
ernor cnamoenain when the time for
such election cornea
"Any talk that there may be about
the legislature not electing Governor
Chamberlain United States senator la
in my Judgment, simply the petty feel
ing of dlssppointment coming to the
surface and amounts to nothing," he
said. 'It la absolutely Inconceivable
that any candidate for the legislature
pledging himself before election to vote
for the people's choice -could, after
election, break that solemn promise.
There should not anA cannot, be Snv
doubt about Governor Chamberlain's
election. It was settled by the people."

C. M. Idleman, ex -chairman of the
Republican city and county central
committee, was short and to the point
In his oninlon. "I think that anv man "
he said, "who goes back on his fellow-

"I presumed that when candidates for
the legislature signed the Statement No.
1 pledge they did so in good faith. That
l about all any one could say on ths
subject." This is the way L. A. Mo
nary, ex-city attorney, and a prominent
Republican looks at tha question.
"When a man has made such a pledge
to the people of the state, whether well
advised or 111 sdvised, I do not see that
he can do anything but keep his pledge."
This ts the -opinion of John GUI. presi
dent of the Union Republican club.
W. C. Bristol, ex-United States attor
ney also is emphatlo in his stand. He

second movement with Its flve-fourths
time is a wonderful bit of orchestration
which ran In smooth harmony with
myatio and altogether delightful . lilt.
The third and fourth movements carry
one on through tha conflicts and fullness
of life, only to leave one at last in the
darkness of doubt and the tragedy of
unfulfilled desires. It Is a wonderful
composition and to have heard the New

education.
Mr. Damrosch himself Is a wonderful
