" Opposition to Statement No. 1 mem

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. Max O. Cohen,
who learned his. card. Index system of
politics from Tom Piatt, Jimmy
Kertchem, Cohen's understudy, Elmer
B. Colwell, who worked for the elec
ttnn at Chamberlain asralnet his party
nomtnee in June in the furtherance of
the Fulton scheme: these men and a
few others of the like motives are the
ones who are taking tne active pan in
the agitation. 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. The real leaders of the
party are taking positive stands against
them and the people are behind the big
ger men. very nine in a general way,
and 'nothing definitely, is .being heard
of. the petitions wuicu wave uw
launched. , - . : - '
At Salem Senator J. N. .Smith, per
sonal representative of Fulton in Ma
rlon, couny, is complaining that the peo
ple do not take kindly to the propo
eitlon and that nothing can be done.
From all parts of the state comes word
that prominent men are taking a stand
gainst the agitation and advising the
legislators to stand by their runs. ,The
Statement No. 1 men themselves, are
planning to meet- and .outline Plans lor
harmonious action In the organization of
the legislature and in legislative mat-
Altogether iflooke as If the big noise
is about all there; lato be to the on
slaught on Statement No. 1 and the
desire of the voters of the state as set
out at the polls last June.

Presiding Judge Gantenbeln In
circuit' court this morning announced a
new departure In the procedure of the
circuit court In handling non-Jury cases,
by which an effort will be made to dis
pose of these cases more readily. 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,

This picture conveys a good idea of how the tailors and de
signers have compromised in making fall fashions. The cut
'3fcthe coat is conservative, while the pockets and lapels give
it the desired' touch of 'life" and' tone. But this, is only one
of the endless array of totally different models, some of which
are tnoroagmy extreme (for young chaps), while others are
more sedate
