One of those powers I tha eoriatllutlon of tat legislatures and the preacrlblngr of tha Quallflca tlona and method of election of the member, thereof. With thla raaerved power neither congrt nor any other national governmental agency has the . power to Interfere further than to se cure to the atate a Republican form of ' Ann.an i4noe. when It waa pro vided that tha leglalaturea of the sev; ral state anouia elect two united States aenatora to represent "j euch atatea In the national senate, it waa clearly recognlaed that tha elector - ...... hAiiM have ma aoie " nower and uninterrupted right to elect - ' only auch member of their respective atate leglalaturea aa would, in turn, elect to the United States aenate only tha men desired by the electora to be o elected. 1 Execute Zlectorate'a Will. . It la of the very easence of popular government that-tha official servant shall execute the expressed will of tha electorate. No man Is ask Ins; the mem-hera-elect of the Oregon legislature to . do more man tnai. m win w Oregon electorate haa been legally ex- . preaaed In regard aa to whom It . de- aires elected to the next United Statea aenate to represent thiu atate. It surely will not be claimed that the people of this atate are legally denied the privl- ' lege of expreaalng cbelr choice for sen a tor, however, much It may be argued that the expression of that choice doea not bind legislator to elect the per- art n ma hnAM The assumption of tha ' enemies of the "holy statement" that members of the legislature, are td be coerced inio electing -a senator-whom they' do not desire to elect, la. utterly wltnout foun dation. If It la the will of the people -of Oregon that Oeorge i unamoenain snail uwir ; uncu f pi m may It not, likewise, be the will of-the legislature of Oregon that he ahall be senator? vyno win , unaerxaH firm that a majority of the members elect of the legislature do not dealre him for senator?- When they were can didates he waa a, canaiaate. vvnen wej made the "holy atatement" they were aware that he . might be the people'! hii nt thxv hud adennate opportun Mt to withdraw their candidacy, if they reared having io jvoio ror nini. xm v trit ma l,i.1aa tn Intimate that on in riemindliia- thl same thing of the mmbrs-elot of the legislature, who are Republican You argue that alnce the majorlty'of the people of Ore- fon are Republicans, and a majority of ha membere-eleet of the legislature are Hepubilcana, that they should vote only for a .Republican for United Btatsa aen ator. It dlffera not that they may personally desire to vote for the peo ple' choice, Uovernor Chamberlain. We put the matter upon the broad f round of the people'a choice law ully expressed, and upon - tha aub. mission of the leglalalor to the peo plee' will by him solemnly promlaed to the peoule before hla election. Tou bind him to the narrower choice or a tt.miiiiiran What beoomee of the ui- trammeled duty under the , conatltutlon Of the i:nlted StateaT The truth, aa we aeeMt, la that there la not a line nor a woru ,in me voubh tutlon of the United States that can by Implication or otherwlee be eonatruetl to mean that a member1 of a atate i.iitiir ta an nffirar of the united Statea. to be directed In hla Indlvldaal erformance or nie auiy aa iucu er by the conatltutlon or by the lawa of the United Statea.

It' Is .utterly childish to aav that the people of Oregon, Kepubll riuii u well a a Democrats, do not de alre Mr. Chamberlain to be elected sen ator. He waa, voted for - because the ..people wantedi him because he had nerved them well; and because they be Sieved that he would continue to aefve 'them well. U'"1','. , ' i 1 ; Xrtalatuxe o Kaater. ' It la a mieotMiception.'cf- fact to aa iiuma that a iraember"cf the legislature ie. being pledged when hel- asked to atata whether or not he will vote for the people'a cftolee for aenator. It la only private clUsen, a caraSldate, not an offlcUl, who pledges himself to do the people'a will In the event f hia election. Ha la aa much a representa tive of the people in his capacity of electing; a aenator as he la In enacting a atate law.- y. We vote for men because we expect them to do our will, and If we are cltl sena worthy of the name we do not vote for men until we have reason to believe that they will do our will. They are our servants, not our masters. They , are our creatures. They have ac cepted our yoke and must -bend to their ' maater'a command. All that Is manly demands It of them. . ture to even vote, nor to do anything tn his individual capacity, runner man to convene in Joint aaaembly; and no where is a penalty prescribed for his failure to perform any act relating to the election of a aenator, or to vote for a a.n.tnr . mi All. . The people of tha United Btatej have nothing to ao -wun mo eivcuuu ui senator in a atate. To be repreaented in tha ranfnii hv two aenatora la a nrlvllen belonalna to the people of tha at.te and this orlvlleae or rlirht I fully recognlaed by the national consti tution by the provision that each atate shall be entitled to two senators, and that no atate ahall have a greater num ber of senators In congreaa than an other. 1 Aooenataale to State, If we are to be denied the right of aaklng a candidate for the leglalature aa to whom he favors for aenator. It is as reaaonable that we should be denied the privilege of aaklng him as to how he standa upon any question. If we are permitted to asic mm in our Individual capacity as oltlxens as to whom he favors for aenator, why is It more alnful for us to ask him In num ber? - If he be permitted to answer to one, may he not be permitted to make a statement to a majority of his fellow cltlsens that he will abide their choice? He haa made no prom laa ta the United States ' that he will vote for anyone for a senator, nor Is he ever required to ao so, or to mane any romise or any ama . to ine unuea tates or to the - people of the United States. He la not in any sense an of ficial of the United 'States. He is a atate official, a representative of the people of his - state solely, and hi oath to support the constitution of the United States la a promise to the people of hla state, not to the United States. He Is under no stronger. . obligation to the United Statea . than la any other citizen of his state. The laws or the state or Oregon, whether enacted by the people or by their legislature, are . valid lawa until declared invalid by competent authority, and are binding upon us all. If by law the people of Oregon have Instructed legislators to elect such persona as they have lawfully designated as tneir cnoice for United States senator, it is a lawful instruction until It. shall be determined otherwise. . Men may disregard auch In struction as they disregard any other 1 .1 M ... .ff. n 1..I...A. penalty that may be imposed, if any be mposea. It Is Inconceivable how anv member- elect of the legislature of Oregon who has stated to the people of the state that he will vote for their choice for United Statea aenator, aa that choice was lawfully determined at an election held ror that purpose, can Tall -to keep his word. There la no excuse for his failure so to do, and it is not likely that any one of them will have so little regard for his solemn promise to the people as to fall to keen it.

We aak your klndneaa to rive ua a little space and to make publlo our anawer, which follows: The celebration of the Italian day was not planned ' with the purpose to offend any cltlaen of Portland to what ever religion he may pertain America baa no state religion; the great maxim "free church In a free state." a maxim of a great statesman, a maxim that Is to be supposed has been here fully fol lowed, never created offenee to any one. There are In Portland aa many rood Cathollca aa In any other city ef lta slse la the world and thua Cath ollca do not think It to be an offenee te them if the Italians celebrate the day on which Rome, with the consent of all the world, became the capital ef Italr Cardinal Glbbona stated In one of his last lntervlewa, ae reported by ine preea in general, mat tne lata- , ollre of America were growing eo proe- ' perona and the Catholic religion waa , gaining such ground for the very reason of the division of the state frotn the fchorch.
