BETRAYINQ OREQON. r
The Newr York Press, one of
the leading republican papers of
the state, makes the following
pertinent remarks on the Senato
rial situation in Oregon : ' - -
The hardihood as well as the
unscrupulousness of professional
politics is exemplified-in the per
sistent attempt of the members
of the Oregon Legislature to re
pudiate a solemn pledge which
' they mada to the voters of that
,State at the polls., , While a ma
jority of the citizens of Oregon
are itepuoiicans, revercneiess
they desired the election of Geo".
-E. Chamberlain, a Democrat, to
be United States Senator. W hen
they were about to elect their
.Legislature, therefore, tho Re:
publican voters gave the candi
dates of their 'own party ' the
choice of agreeing to send Cham-i
berlain to the United States Sen
ate or of themselves being beaten
for the Legislature. - A-pledge;
.known as . "Statement No. 1,"
.was offered to the candidates,
and those who accepted it bound
themselves to give their votes in
the Legislature to the popular
nominee for Senator receiving
the highest number of ballots at
the election that is to say, for'
Chamberlain, who received that
highest number of ballots of the
general electorate.
" Fifty-one of the legislators who
are now to choose a United States
Senator . bound : themselves by
that pledge, but, secure in their
seats, enough of." them want to
break their promise to land a Re
publican Senator, instead of
Chamberlain, the democrat. The
excuse which they give for their
contemplated violation of pledge
and default of trust is that they
cannot believe the Republican vo
ters of Oregon really meant what
they saidor were really any more
sincere in'offering the Chamber
lain pledge, than the candidates
for Jthe Legislature-jwere in ac
cepting it. The members of
the Legislature who seek-ti"eDUr
diate their promise, therefore.
are circulating petitions among
the general voters.'who are "asked
thus to reverse their decision and
absolve the legislators from the
pledge with which those voters
bound them,
There ' is nothing so easy for
practical politicians to do as to fill
petitions with signatures, if they
have to take the names from the
tombstones in graveyards, so, it
will be astonishing if the default
ing legislators do not trium
phantly flourish their letters of
pardon when they stand up in the
Oregon Legislature5 and sell
the voters of that state. "' But it
will be still more' astonishing if
at the next elec ion those Oregon
voters do not kick the whole crew
of welehers into the Pacific Ocean.
It may be that the, people of
Oregon can be robbed; in this in
stance, of the Senator whom they
have chosen to represent them in
Washington, but the great pro
gramme of Direct Nominations
will not suffer thereby, for the!
execution of the , conspiracy
against Chamberlain, the popular
choice for Senator .and:. the .man
whom the; legislators are :, sol
emnly pledged to send - to - Wash
ington, wilf put the political burg
lars who do. that work - perma
nently out of business. '
ing could prevent his being ac
cused of being the master mind
of thenew admintstration'and
that would subject Mr," Taft tqa
greatj deal of embarrassment
There is no more clever politician
in "the country than. .Theodore
Roosevelt. He is creditedwith
practically -jiominatingrhiff; suc"t
cessor, and the ; part: he- bore in
electing him was unequalled by
any other single individual.- Were
he to remain he could notrescape
the charge of being "the- power
behind the throne," and he thinks
too much of Mr. Taf t ; to allow
that to occur. So he disappears
for a couDle of years , and bv the
end of that period the new Presi-1
dent will have accomplished one
half his term, and - become 'well
established ,: inf his " policies, for
which he alone will be held re
sponsible. . If the story told by
the Post is true: Mr. Taft and'
the country at large owe Senator
ljodgea -debt of gratitude,

A-GOOD SUGGESTION.
""' A Washington correspondent
gives Senator Lodge the credit of
suggesting Africa as a good place
for the President to spend a two
years' vacation after the 4th of
next March. If he were to re
main in the country, after the in
auguration of his successor, noth-
- t AFTER HARVEST TIME. -
The season of the, year is again
at hand which is most favorable
of all for Grange work. : In most
parts of the state all have had an
unusually favorable" reason for
harvesting all kinds of crops, and
for the most part,- too, a bounte-
i i i "!
ous. Harvest nas oeen garnered.
The large number of very suc-
cessf ul , and excellent f aira that
have, been , held indicate, . the su
perb quality ' arid the' bounteous
quantity of the, products that
have ' everywhere' rewarded the
labors of . the" husbandmen." "With
the rush of the harvest season
over and the iong evenings at
hand more time can be found for
cultivating the mental faculties.
The .stress of the physical side of
Ike is, for a time, ; somewhat re
lieved and tne intellectual, social
and moral . part of ,ouj? I being
should come in for a share of at
tention; So the opportunities and 1
advantages which the" Grange
gives ' should appeal to people,
officers and; members should be
up and doing to- have everything
in-good working order,, not only
for theirs .own sd vantage and
benefit, but in order to bein readi
ness to , push the work of bring
ing in new members and make
them feel well repaid for the step
they are taking.; . " ' '
