M'ARTHUR IS NOT
WILLING TO REPLY
Continued From Page One,
tern repudiated by the people through
the enactment of tha primary law.
Issue Clearly - Defined.
This Issue has become clear cut and
definite and has been extended through
agitation Into the fight for the organi
sation of the house and senate. The
members of the legislature have recog
nized this to be a fact and because it
Is, are lining up lor a statement no.

tion, It being the contention of the
Statement No. 1 men that they are

the challenge of the anti-Statement No.
1 agitators and enter into the contest
on mo lines arawn oy mono wno are
seeking to override the will of the
people. i . '
Mr. MoArthur In making his can
, palgn for the speakership contends that
- lie Is simply - seeking the nomination
for the- office at the hands of a Jte-,
' publican caucus and election as a re
sult of that caucus. His candidacy,
however, is being fostered and backed
for Infants and Children.

Blflrnatura of

by those who are the leaders In the
campaign to Induce legislators to vio
late their pledges, break their promises
and defeat the will of the people as
expressed at the polls. .
Because of this conflicting situation
and tn order that Mr. McArthur might
have an opportunity lo state his po
sition clearly to the people as regards
his belief that pledges should be kept
or broken. The Journal on November 13
addressed the following letter to him:
"Dear Sir In view of the fact that
you are a candidate for speaker of the
house of representatives in the Oregon
legislature and the further fact that
If . elected speaker you will be in a
position,, to exert a considerable Influ
ence upon the election of United States
senator. The Journal desires t6 ask
you the following questions:
"Flrst Do you eonsider it the duty
of each legislator who subscribed to
fctatemeat No. 1 to abide by that
pledge?
-, "Second Do you think It the duty
of all members of the legislature to
obey the instruction given by the peo-
nie Of Orftmin In th altAf Inn Y...
r908, when they directed the legislature
to elect as senator that man who re
ceived the highest popular-vote In the
preceding election?
"Third In view of the fact that you
pledged yourself before your nomina
tion and election to vote for "the 'Re-
nilhllrAH v.VAtAM1 Khnlna fn TT-U.J

affairs, delayed his answr. On Novem

the questions put to him by The. Joiir-
iiri,' iiiu uiun musing v amis twnemer j
he believed that men who had pledged
themselves to Statement No. 1 should
abide by that pledge or break it wheth
er he considered it the duty of members
of the learlslatura to be bound by the
voted Instructions of the people, or
wnetner he intended to Keep tne pieage
of "Republican voters' choice" made by
him and oast his ballot for H. M. Cake
for senator. His letter follows:
"Owing to rush of business I have
been unable to give your letter of the
ism instant anytning nice tne considera
tion to which It is entitled until today.
"At the present time I respectfully
decline to answer the questions which
you ask me, for the reason that it ap

among the large number of candidates
as one upon whom- the Bourne-Cham-
oeriam crowd wisn to make an attactc.
As you know, I am a candidate for
speaker of the house, and probably have
more votes at my command than any

I have In my mind answers for all three
of the Questions which you have seen
fit to flk.

which you mailed to me to each of the

do so. I am not afraid to make a pub
