Resoi-vkii, First-That the his
tory of the republican party through
twenty-four years of wise, Judicious,
and prosperous rule; four years of
which wits through one of the most
terrible wars, with enemies within
nnd foes without, fully demonstrates
the ability of republicans to manage
the vast interests of this great nnd
growing government.
Second Thnt the cause of temper
ance as a social and moral reform, Is
a great and righteous cause, nnd is
In strict harmony with the pro
gressive age In which we live.
Third That we, as republicans,
believe that the theory of prohibition
has lioen detained from returning
home by her illnwviand will probali- Is fallacious, that It Is visionary nnd
ly remain here several weeks longer. I Impracticable as demonstrated in
Her daughter, Mrs. Woodworth, Is the experimental states, and hereby
expected home from China In a few repudiate It as a party principle, nnd

Fifth That we believe, that the

with the avowed Intention of dis

Sixth That the organization of
the prohibition party will militate
toward the tlefeat of a republican
for president In the coming election,
, thereby bringing llnauclal depres-

Balem, March 19, 18S3
On motion of W. H. Holman,
Samuel Stanley Pentz was admit
ted, upon certificates from the U. b.
supreme court and the supreme
. fTn tn nractice in all tne
courts of this state.
W. N. Northup, et al., app., vs. 1 .
A, Marquam, resp.; appeal from
Multnomah county; argued and;
submitted. W. Y. Masters auu J
K. Kelly, attorneys for app.; A. H.
Tanner, attorney for resp.
F. P. Embree et nl., resps., vs. i"
L. Peckman et al., apps.; appeal
from Yamhill connty; judgment of
the court below reversed and the
cae dismissed; opinion by Strahan,
J.
Following Is the syllabus:
1. Chattel Mortgage Defined.
chattel mortgage Is the condi-
llnnnl unlo nf n ehnttl'l to le V01U
upon the performance of the condi
tions named therein.
2. Partner Power to Mortgage
Chattels of the Finn to Secure
Partnership Debts. One member of
a firm has the authority to mortgage
tho chattels of the partnership to
secure the payment of partnership
iinhta. without the knowledge or
mnhont of the other members of
such firm.
Joseph Holladay, app., vs. Esther
Hollnday, resp.; appeal from Mult
nomah county; judgment of the
lower court reversed and the case
remanded for such further proceed
ings as may be proper in accordance
with this opinion by Lord, C. J.
Tho syllabus Is:
1. An executor is a person to
whom the decedent has confided the
execution of his last will and he
derives his appointment from It.
Letters testamentary Issued by the
probate judge are but the authentic
evidences of the power conferred oy
tho will, and are founded upon. the
probate of that Instrument.
2. At common law all jiersons
capable of mukiug wills, and some
others besides, are capable of being
made executors, and from the
earliest time It has been the rule
that everv person may be an
executor, saving such as are ex
pressly forbidden.
3. Ourcodehasdisqualllled many
persons, who, at common law, were
competent to serve as executors, the
tendency of modern legislation be
ing to enlarge the control of probate
courts In respect to testamentary ap
pointment; but the principle by
which the court is to lie guided In
determining to whom letters tes
tamentary are to lie issued remains
unchanged.
4. As at common law so under
the statute, all persons not expressly
forbidden may servo as executors,
and when one or more are so ap
jHiinted by the testator, the court
must give heed to his choice and
Issue the necessary letters to enable
such representative to perform his
trust.
5. It was, therefore, held, that
when a will is proven, it is the plain
duty of tho court to grant letters tes
tamentary to tho person named In
the will, upon his application, who
Is not disqualified by the statute.
