Especially when such demand was accompanied, by a threat that until complied with other needed legislation would not be passed? - ; : v :" ; ' The present law provides that the commissioners shall be resi dents within the district of the Port of Portland. There are nine commissioners; Three , of "them should be elected by the legal voters of that district every two vear. -If. however, the citizens ot. Portland, for any reason, should deem it unwise to elect their own commissioners,; but wish them to be appointed by the State Government, it Is then clearly an executive and not a legislative function. I can - find no sound reason or justification for -the oassage of such an act as this, which legislates into office men. some of whom have not attended meetings-of the Port for many months. . We have three departments of government, and the Oregon con stitution, patterned after the'Con stltntion of the United States, make thee three branches T of government ihe legislative, the executive and the judicial -separate; and distinct, "each with Its own proer functions to perform. A; century and a quarter of na tional life under such a constitu tion has proved the wisdom of its authors. ; To alter it thoughtless ly,, or maliciously to tamper with the fundamental principles of Gov ernment Involved In such a radical action ' as this. Is to invite chads in 'government. ' I '.;.-.' .'

This law was referred to the Voters of the Port District at a peclal elec tion held on June T, 1921," and by an overwhelming majority the people of the Port District sustain ed. that law. Dill. No. S 6 clearly overrides and sets at naught the will of the people as expressed at that election. ' - ; ; . V. I have been criticised for the reason that I appointed five com missioners for the Port of Port land on January 27, 1925. Instead of waiting until the terms of the present commissioners had almost expired. Please remember that I did not remove' the present com missioners,; although such power is vested in me by the Moser Act of 1915. I did name , five com- m'fsioners to take office June 1, 1923, two- Democrats . and three Republicans -men of outstanding integrity and ability- and of pec uliar fitness -for this work. ; I appointed four members of this commission In May, 1924, two Republicans: -and two.. Democrats men eminently qualified for the position. , I have done my best, to free the Port of Portland from partisan politics. , It waa my ear nest ' hope and desire thai . these early -appointments would con vince" all of iny sincerity: and pre vent the bitter partisanship and intrigue which have heretofore existed. 'v. " i T , , ; for months the public press of the state has carried bold head l'nes asserting that the legislature would . strip the executive . of all the appointive and administrative powers possible. Immediately up on- the assembling of . the legisla ture a. systematic and careful can vass was made, of its members. P'edges were exacted and made to carry out this program. ' I have been informed that the original program, was to Introduce one bill, stripping the executive of all appointive 'power,, and almost enough votes were pledged to enact such a law over the veto of the governor. Realizing fully the dissension and strife that 'I Ss t ' ; - ... i i . . , ...

My greatest offense seems to have been la my refusal to recognize one certain faction. For many years this faction has been the dominating- figure over . every meeting of the legislature. By Insidious lobbying, by one method or another, in has controlled vari ous members of. each house, coer cing legislation and preventing the passage, of beneficial laws un til this faction had secured its desired legislation.. For the pro motion of the commercial fish In terests of this state, this element has been largely. Instrumental In securing appropriations from the state treasury, within the last few years, of almost $1,000,000. For years this same faction has been the dominating influence in mat ters pertaining to the Port of Portland. This faction, seeming ly, does not desire to allow: the taxpayers of the Port of Portland district to elect' their own man agers. Has old Oregon reached that point in her career where she must submit ' to the political and commercial domination ot one fac tion? .Will her people longer countenance such ' vicious influ ence and supervision? With pleasure 1 would sign a "biir giving the .people of the Port land district , the right and privi lege of. electing, their own commis sioners'. The people of Oregon outside ojt this district, and their members of the legislature, should not be, called .upon to name the governors of this local commission as is attempted in this bill. I hope that this agitation may bring a movement that will vest in the citizens of the Port of Port land district the right to elect their own' commissioners.' This commission is now spending more than one million dollar annually, and the many taxpayers Tin that district should have the power to govern their own affairs, 'and ths legislature shonld be free from the pernicious effect of this at tempt to pervert the proper func tioning of the' affairs of our state . government. &3 i a v w mm I'
