of refusing to abide by caucus decision
and then a Democrat was chosen. In
Oregon the party was without one Sem
ator two years, and there are other in
stances similar to these.
In California last year Republicans
appealed to the electors to sustain the
President and his war policy. These
appeals gave the party large major
ity in the Legislature, the electors be-
lieving that a Il Republican, Senator
would be chosen when the time for
balloting came IF we are to take the
statement of Senator Cutter for
granted, then thousands of votes in
California were obtained under false
pretenses and the party organization
will be held responsible for it. If the
party desires to secure the electoral
votes in this State next year the Leg1s-
lature must fulfill the promises made
to the people last fall by leaders and
conventions Failure to go into eau
Gus and settle these differences as to
choice of a member Of the party in the
Senate, will deserve defeat. A failure
to elect now will leave the State with
only one representative in the upper
House of Congress during two years
after the 4th of March. And then, the
result will quite likely be Democratic
majority in 1901 and the election of a
Senator of that party. The Demo-
craft is a non partisan journal, there
fore it does not claim the right to speak
for the Republican party, but its editor
has been a member of that political or
ganization in California forty years
and he feels an interest in it's future
welfare. But beyond the question of
politics is the matter of honor and fair
dealing with the people who have a
right to full representation in the Unit
ed States Senate.

Break the Deadlock.

(FTOm the oakland Ir1Dune.)
That is the mandate of Alameda
County to the Republicans in Sacra-
mento. 1t is a. command which Ala
media County has the right to issue.
Alameda is the banner Republican
County of the State In the last cam
paign, as in campaigns before it, this
county has given it's splendid majori-
ties to the party of progress and safe
policies. asking. nothing in return, save
that the party shall remain true to its
aims, for the promotion of the general
good. That is the demand which Ala
media County makes upon the repre-
sentatives of the party, now.
Once, the vote of this county saved
the State of California to the side OF
President Mckinley, in the national
campaign Now, this county proposes
to exercise it's rightful authority, to
save to the Administration of Presi-
dent Mckinley the votes and moral
support of Republican United States
Senator in the new and critical times
ahead. It was the past week which
demonstrated the immense Importance
and need of this support The mo-
mentous treaty of peace with Spain,
which it had cost war to procure,
was ratified with but a single vote In
the United States Senate to spare.
Alameda County now asks, demands,
of the Republicans in the Legislature
to come together in the time-honored
method of responsible political organ
izations. and agree, by a majority vote,
upon some Republican to represent
the State in the Senate at Washington.
This is a most simple and proper de-
mand. The rule of the majority Is
fundamental principle of the Repubh-
can party These Republican legisla-
tors obtained their own nomination un-
der the operation of that rule. They
are in duty bound to carry out IT'S
spirit. in order to break the lamentaple
and ruinous deadlock into which they
have fallen, and to perform the su-
nremely important duty for which they
were sent to this Legislature.

Caucus Should be Held.

(F'rom the Marysville Democrat, mo-
Republican,
Last week when an effort was made
in the state Senate to put an end to
the Senatorial farce, Senator Cutter OF
this district was reported in the Rec
ord-Union' as saying that the adher-
ents of U. S. Grant, Jr., did not pro-
pose to go into caucus, but would stay
out and cast every one of their votes
openly We are to understand tnat IN
the use of these expressions the Sena-
tor speaks for Mr.. Grant, and the
other twenty-seven members who nave
been voting for that gentleman for the
Office of United States Senator -Four
wears ago when an effort was made to
have a caucus of Republican members
held to consider petition of the state
Central Committee, q few members, In
cluding Senator Cutter, refused to be
hound by caucus rules the same as at
the present time. Then a charge OF
fraudulent counting of ballots cast for
Governor was made by the State Com
mittee and proofs submitted. yet the
arpeal of the representatives of the
party was ignored. The result OF such
action was the seating of a man as
Governor of California whose title was
openly challenged, the proofs being
quite conclusive Governor Budd used
his authority to strengthen and build
up the Democratic party, the turning
down of every Republican office holder
that he could reach. An administra-
ton of four years was thrust upon the
people of this State by these recreant
Republican members, which not only
demoralized the Republican party but
it has been marked by a series of blum
ders unequa1led in history.
If Senator Cutter speaks by authority
when he declares that the members
who are voting for Mr. Grant will not
go into caucus, preferring to see a
Democratic victory rather than the
success of some other member of the
Republican party, such declaration is
astounding A caucus of members of
the party is as legitimate as is the joint
assembly that meets daily to ballot for
a choice for Senator. The custom is
as old as the party organization The
caucus is a necessary part OF political
machinery. often resorted to by Sena-
tors and members of Congress to de-
termine great national questions. 1t

Senator Cutter and Assemblyman Raub

summer. decided the matter of who
would be the nominee for the office Of
Senator and Assembly, yet not more
than twenty members of the party par
ticipated. There were members of the
party who did not approve of the eau
Gus at that time, yet the party mana
gers approved the proceedings as be-
ing according to long standing custom.
Refusal to abide by a decision in eau

figured out to mathematical certain

of this gravel be compact enough to
hold the water so that these dredgers
can float in the channels which they
will make for themselves? It will be
some time before this can be deter
mined. No machinery has been put in

Republican Opinion.

If the Republican legislators at Sac
ramento will but listen to the voice of
Republican opinion, before the current
week closes there will be caucus and
Republican Senator elected. Not
any one of the Senatorial aspirants is
so important that the party would go
to pieces if he dropped out of the race,
but they each and all can do the party

caucus than would be entailed should

Let Us Have a Caucus.

(From the Red Bluff Peoples Cause.)
From private advices it is learned
that the Senatorial deadlock at Sacra-
mento is expected to be broken this
week. The opinion now seems to pre-
vail among the leading Republicans
that council or caucus should be held
and the Senatorial contest come to an
end. This is no doubt the proper pro-
ceeding at the present time, as pro
longation of the Senatorial contest
might have the effect of defeating the
party of the victory gained last fall.
the fruits of which is the election of
United States Senator to represent this
State at Washington. Colonel Burns
and Mr.. Grant have both agreed to
a caucus, believing that to be a fair
and equitable way in which to settle
the Senatorial question. This matter
has been hanging fire long enough. Let
us have the caucus, and let the Sen
atorial question be settled.

fact, the Record Union" waited pa
tiently and decently long time for
the strength Of the Senatorial candi-

some one of them to command a fair
majority of party support. When, how
ever, it became evident that none of
them could make the showing under
the condition of many candidates di-

to demand, as one Of the journals which
devoted it's best energies to the achieve

1t is amusing to witness the comfort

refusal to council on the Senatorial
deadlock situation. Since when has the

credit, that men who would do moth
ing in the way of dispensing patronage
without caucus agreement, now think
it so unwise to employ traditional and
approved methods of breaking a dead
lock on SO important matter as the
selection of Senator?

leave California with but one chair
