Tho coming session of tho Oregon legislature will tnko tho final Btcp to establish Direct Election df Unit ed Stnlos Senators by tho voto of tho pdoplo. As nil our readers understand Oregon hns a primary law and an t lection law, by which tho electors nominate and elect U. S. Senators .IUST AS THEY DO ALL OTHER OFFICIALS. Tho Oregonlnn and machine pol iticians havo undertaken to over throw, nullify nnd repeal this sys tem, on tho plen that the UaS. cqn HMtutlon requires tho Icgislnturo to I -t the U. S. Senators InBtcad of the people. The people- of Oregon reply that the U. S. constitution Is n grant of powers from tho states and THE STATES HAVE ALL THE POWERS NOT SPECIFICALLY DELEGATED TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. Tho pcoplo havo never dolcgntcd away tho right to nomlnnto nnd elect tho United States Senntors. Tho pcoplo enn eloct their ropro Hontntlvos and INSTRUCT THEM ON ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER UN DER THE OREGON CONSTITU TION. Tho U. S. .Sonntors woro nominat ed and oloctod by tho pooplo two yearn ago, and ns both happened to bo Republicans, no effort was niHtlt io overthrow tho law. Uut now because the peoplo gave tholr electoral votes to President elect Tuft and .at tho same election guvo therl popular vote to Chamber lain, a Democrat, for U. S. Senator, THE LAW OF OREGON IS TO HE NULLIFIED AND OVERTHROWN. Lust Juno tho peoplo elected fifty cine members of tho legislature who voluntarily subscribed to Stntomont No. One of tho primary law pledg ing thcniHolvos to elect tho cnudldnto for U. S. Senator who received tho popular voto rognrdloss of politics. At tho mime election tho peoplo onaotod tho following lnw by 46,000 majerity: "RE IT ENACTED 11Y THE PEO PLE OF THE STATE OF OREGON: "Section 1. That wo, tho peoplo of tho stato of Oregon, hereby Instruct tholr roprosontnttves and sonntors In our legislutlvo assembly, ns such of ficers, to voto for and elect tho can dldatos for United States Sonutor from this Stato WHO RECEIVE THE HIGHEST NL'MRER OE VOTES AT OUR GENERAL ELECTIONS." Tho Orogonlan nnd tho old Ore gon Political Machine demands that representatives bronk their plodgoa nnd dlsrognrd tho above law. Two yoars ago tho legislature olootod tho two Ronntoilnl candidates who had rocolvod tho votes of tho pooplo in fifteen mlnutos nnd on n slnglo ballot, nnd no mombor got evon n cigar for his voto. Tho Orogonlau, WHICH NOW SEEKS TO DEFEAT THE PEO- PLE'S CHOICE AND NULLIFY THE LAW, and bronk down the Oregon system of Direct Nomination nnd Direct Eloctlon. hnd tho following odltorial APPROVING OF THE LAWS ENACTED RY THE PEOPLE nnd Showing tho effect of Statemont No. Ono.

"A MILESTONE IN HISTORY." "Tho vltrunlly unanimous ratifi cation by tho legislature of tho pop ular cholco of Mr. Mulkoy and Mr. Bourne for United Stntes Senators mnrks an EPOCH IN THE POLITI GAL HISTORY OF OREGON. It Is not likely that tho prccodont thus firmly established will bo broken hereafter. The tlmo of tho legisla ture will henceforth RE DEVOTED TO THE RUSINESS OF THE STATE. Its only concern with tho election of Sonntors will he to fulfill tho consti tutional form RY RATIFICATION OF AN ANTECEDENT POPULAR cnoicE. "Soldom has a body of public men glvon a finer demonstration of loy alty to American principles than the Oregon legislature gavo In ratifying promptly nnd decisively tho popular election of Sonatorn Mulkoy and Bourne. By doing this they hnvo ncknowledgod tho fundamental truth upon which our Institutions rest, nnmely: thnt ALL POWER ULTI MATELY RESIDES IN THE PEO PLE and thnt whonovor tho pcoplo choose to exorcise this power direct ly it Is their right to do so. Our legislators have also acknowledged with noblo fidelity to fnct nnd reason thnt, high as their duties may be, THEY ARE RUT THE SERVANTS OR AGENTS OE THE PEOPLE, and that tho popular mnndntos expressed under tho forms of lnw are of bind ing obligation upon all public offi cials. Wo may thoroforo.say without itntluo Insistence on Its Importance thnt tho ratification by the Oregon legislature of tho popular cholco or our fronutorB MARKS AN EPOOIl IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF FREE INSTITUTIONS." Tho Capital Journal, WHICH IS A REPUBLICAN PAPER, calls tho attention of tho peoplo of Oregon and all other states to tho situation In Oregon nnd THE RATTLE FOR HUMAN LIBERTY THAT IS REING FOUGHT HERE. If In Bplto of tho Orogonlan, which Is now outing Its own words, nnd In splto of tho Mnchlno wing of tho Ropubllcnn pnrty, tho law is bub coflsfully maintained and established, a groat stop will havo been nchloved for reform, achlovod for roform.

It Is tho battlo of tho common peoplo for tho common good. MORE FRUIT AND LESS PEST TALK. Tho long stories about this section of tho Btnto being Infested with San Joso Bcnlo nnd other fruit pestB Is ancient rot. It has been spread In tho nows papcrs for hundreds of columns nnd does nothing BUT DISCOURAGE PEOPLE FROM INVESTING. Such literature and scientific in1 formation Is furnished by tho state and federal governments free to fruit growers. It is not news nnd has only n harnifiil depressing lnfluenco WHEN GIVEN SCARE HEADS IN THE COLUMNS OF THE DAILY PRESS. Ono hunded boxos or tipples at the Spokane npplo show would have been more valuable to tho Willamette val ley thnn nil the pessimistic REPOR TORIAL BELLY -WASH ABOUT SCALE AND CODDLING MOTH. Let us havo more fruit displayed and less displays of scientific hog wash, thnt hns no huslncsB in the nowspapors. This stnto spends twenty thousand dollars on hortlculturnl soclotles which should bo SPENT ON FRUIT EXHIBITS AND FRUIT INDUSTRY PROMOTION. This county spends twonty-flvo hundred dollars on fruit Inspection nnd bosldos what was Bpont on tho cherry fair nnd the apple shown; thnt money IS. ALMOST AS GOOD AS THROWN AWAY. This stnto nnd nil tho counties should use their money getting- tho good fruit before tho eyes of the world, especially this coming year nt the Seattle exposition. 1 hee Is not n new fnct about pest and the commercial orchards all un derstand tho uso of sprays. THEV DO NOT ASK STATE OR COUNT V .tut Tit pitfinrr'U iM.'iiifi.'fi' ai. PLES OR OTHER FRUITS. The agricultural colleges and tho United Stntos department of agricul ture aro capable of furnishing nil the sclontiric Information that any fruit grower needs to succeed In bis busl nosK. Let the money of the stnto and counties bo employed more TO PLACE THE GOOD FRUIT THAT IS PRODUCED BEFORE THE EVES O FTHE WORLD nnd lot tho world know what our section can produco und tho world will como heor und share it with us.
