THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL PORTLAND,'. MONDAY-' EVENING, NOVEMBER 23, 1808. 18 FULTIB COMFORT iEank and File of Eepublican ' Party Opposed to Attempt to Induce Statement No. 1 3cn to Break Pledges Ileal Leaders Hold Aloof. " Opposition to Statement No. 1 mem bers of . the legislature casting their votes according to, their pledges to the people, and .by j6 doing electing; Gov ernor Chamberlain to the United States senate Is doomed to. "blow up" before It has rone much further, Jf the sit uation Is correctly ."slued up" by close observers of things political. The old line politicians, eager to ret their feet ntA tt rtlnl f rAn ch nnM more, who fare backuic and boosting the rente, are making -no- tieadway ana aireaay ineir cause Is berlnninr to look dark. They are finding- out shat-the people of the state do not look with favor upon the effort to cause members of the legisla ture to violate pledges, break their word with their - constituents, . and . dishonor themselves.'"' ' The people, on the other hand, are seeing more and more plainly that the agitation Is belnr stirred up by a small ring of- men, for selfish. purposes, and to overthrow the primary law, J.o defeat the nrlbclnls of direct election of sena- (tors, and to cause a reversion to the old system of barter and trade for the aenatorship. . ' ; So far, in spite of all the agitation. ' t there has not been even a rumor of f one Statement No. 1 legislator who Is Jnot Intending to carry out his agree jment with the people who elected him. i All. of the men are standing; firm to i their pledges and are even lining up .all the more solidly In the faoe or the 'onslaught being made upon them, feel ing that they have been unjustly crit icised and attacked because of their championship of the principle of di rect election of senators. ' Agitators Are Tooled. Aside from this, the agitators have also found to their surprise and cha grin, that the most influential members ot the political organisations and of the party, the moat solid and highly respected citlsens of the state, are com ing out openly and emphatically in favor- and advocacy of Governor .Chamberlain's- election,- holding unanimously that for the legislators to repudiate their pledges' would . be via, disgrace.. to themselves and to 1 the state, a dishon orable action. - . The people again, watching the con troversy, have discovered - that all the noise and shouting; comes from a small circle. They have found that the lead has been taken in the movement by the old line machine) men of Multnomah county who want to defeat the primary law in order that they may once more fret back into the political saddle, from which they were ' thrown by the pas sage of the law and the consequent abo lition or tne old macnine organization. Aside from the . close henchmen of Senator Fulton, who. with .their chief. are angry because they are caught in their own trap, are others always will In to follow where) the wheel tracks of the machine show.

Practically all of the talk belna- made in favor of broken pledges is being made by them. Seal Leaders Honest. - They are hot meeting with much en couragement.

Be ginning with December 21 ; four court cases will be set for trial each day for the first three days of each non-Jury week thereafter. For seven and a half years the prac tice of the court has been to set only three cases for trial each day, there beine only three trial iudirea This leaves the presiding: Judge free to hear motions ana atiena to - me prep aration of cases for trial. But the num ber of cases set in advance has rained so rapidly that the Judges decided, after conierring on tne auDieci a raw aays ago. to try the experiment of setting four non-Jury cases for the first three days of each week. Very often cases set for trial are dismissed, settled, or continued, and the vacancies thus cre ated, it is thought, may be enough in numoer to enaoie tne courts to taae care of three additional cases each week for two weeks In the month. The rule will not be applied to Jury cases, as ex perience shovfrs that -three Jury cases per day are all that can be cared for. Because of the adoption of the new rule, no cases were set today. Next Monday cases will be set, those already fixed for trial having preference In case the attorneys agree to their ad vancement After all the attorneys who have agreed on advancing cases have been accommodated, the docket will be taken up In regular order, GENERAL JOHN GREEN SUCCUMBS (United Press Leased Wire.)
