J.I. liurrowf-s Ad. Hvvii-f i1 , il l wmm w Oregon's Executive Pro Tem pore Plunges Into Mass of Work at Capitol. (Salem Bureau of The Journal.) . Ealem, Or., June 17. Jay Bowerman of Condon, took the oath of acting gov ernor of the state of Oregon about 4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon. 1 His first official set was- to sign a commission appointing E. M. Fowler notary pttblic. In a very few minutes after receiving the congratulations of , a number . of friends who had gathered to witness the installation of the ' new acting . gover nor, Mr. Bowerman was wrestling with the many. Intricate problems af his new position and was plunged at once Into the business; of the dcserNland board, Though it was not certain whether an oath was' necessary, it was decided that it was safest, so upon his arrival at the state) house yesterday Mr. Bower man took an oath administered by. As sociate Justice JEakin of the Oregon su preme bench, to support the constitution of the United States and of this state and faithfully to perform all the duties that may devolve upon him as acting governor of the state of Oregon. ; 1 ' NWhat Bowerman May Do. . The new acting governor may do all things that any' governor of Oregon may do until Governor Benson recrosses the boundary line Into Oregon. In case of vacancies Acting Governor Bower man has full authority to make any appointments he may see fit to make. He may Issue as many pardons as he pleases. Until Governor Benson re turns, Acting Governor Bowerman will draw the governor's salary of $5000 a year. However, Mr. Bowerman Is not secretary- of state, and Governor Ben son will continue to draw the stipend of that office, which Is $4500 and which makes Governor Benson's salary; under ordinary circumstances $9500 a year. In the event of the death of Governor Benson, Mr. ' Bowerman would have to appoint a new secretary of state, Mr. Bowerman . becomes acting gov ernor by virtue of a provision of the Oregon constitution which . had never before been given actual demonstration that provides that In the event "6f the resignation, absence or other disability of both the governor and secretary of state, the president of the senate shall be governor, Governor Benson has been absent from tha state at other times since being chief executive but this time has decided to stay In San Francisco and be relieved of state wor ries long enough so that his physicians would have an opportunity fairly to prescribe for htm and to restore his health. It was. for that reason that Mr. Bowerman was called in to dispose of a number of matters that had ac cumulated during tha governor's ab sence. The governor will return In July and will make a campaign for re election as secretary of stata In the primaries and November election. it Is the first time that a president of state senate ever became governor of Oregon or even acting governor by virtue of this provision of the Oregon constitution. - v.-"--' r---'- R Ik ::Fcr.Hclj;..:::EC0urj 1 (F,!' m Fnreau of TLe Jmrnnl.)
