voters, Every candidate for every
Office should be required to make q
plain and unequivocal state ment of
his faith and purpose and every hon
est man who has any proper regard
for his civic obligations will do so
without challenge from the people.
And it may be set down as a proba-
Bile fact that every one who refuses
or neglects to do SO is actuated by
an Interior purpose that he is
ashamed or afraid to declare to the
electorate. The old adage that
everything is fair in politics" has
no proper place in the peoples gov
ernment.
The other matters treated of in
your letter are relatively unimpor-
tant, for the recommendation be-
slowed upon a candidate, whether by
lawyers, doctors, churches, oranges,
ETC., are not in the name and by the
authority of a political party claim
ing service from partisan.

but I could not avoid it very well
and stand fair with both yourself
and the public as to revelations con-
tanned in my Intentionally private
letter to Judge McGinn. I would
not have you or the people of Ore
gon believe that I am prompted by
any other motive than a very strong
and controlling desire to give our
Oregon system fair trial, and with
so years experience with the boss
system as means for promoting the
general welfare, fresh in our mem

OF course, it is not expected that
the holders of privilege will be ia
vorably disposed to a government by
the people from whom they have
been eXtorting until the habit has
become clothed with the sanctity of
a vested right and which they defend
with as much plausibility as though
it were a law of nature. But their
exactions have become too onerous
to be borne and the people in every
state are rising in revolt against
them. And it is now as it always
has been, no reform is possible with

and being beset with all kinds Of OBJ

by practical printers today that It
will be impossible to get all the ar

pamphlet within the time required
by law. 1t will be the plan of the
Office to rush the work with all pos

all the arguments will be printed,

the pamphlet can be published with

ATTORNEY GENERAL HOLDS IT
WILL NOT BAR ARGUMENTS

After considering the decision
rendered by Judge Galloway in the
case of Joseph against the secretary
of state, and the case of Willis Duni-
way against the secretary Of state,
Attorney General Crawford this af-
ternoon gave it as his opinion that
as no restraining order was issued
by the court that the decision would
not bar the printing of the arguments
in the publicity pamphlets.
State Printer Duniway made re-
quest upon the attorney general for
an opinion upon the subject shortly
before noon, but it was not expected
that an opinion would be rendered
until probably tomorrow. The At
torney General, however, shortly af-
ter receiving the request made up his
mind as to the law on the subject,
and rendered the opinion.
The attorney general in his opinion
says that while Judge Galloway an
nounced from the bench that it was
his opinion that a political organiza-
tion had no right to file arguments
in favor of any class of candidates
that he did not enter up a judgment
in the case or issue a restraining
order, and therefore the cases are
just the same as though they had
never been commenced, and can not
possibly affect the action of the
secretary of the state or the state
printer in the printing of the argu-
ments He then quotes the law de-
filming the duties of the secretary of
state and state printer with relation
to the printing of the arguments and
holds that the law gives to the state
printer no discretion with regard to
the matter, and that therefore it will
be his duty to print all arguments
turned over by the secretary of the
state for the pamphlet
In the meanwhile should the state
fail to answer within the five days
given it, and should Judge Galloway
sustain the contention of Joseph's
attorneys that the judgment carried
1 restraining order, the argument I
would be stopped rom going into
he pamphlet, even though ready for
printing. It's an ola podrida and
mells strong of the political onion
herein.

dered by the supreme court, the
election would be over, the decision
Of Judge Galloway is final.
In overruling the demurrer Judge
Galloway admitted that the com
plaint stated cause of action and
as the state will not answer at the
expiration of the five days Joseph
will take judgment on the complaint,
and 1t is the contention of the law
yers of Joseph that it will carry a
restraining order with It, But be
that as 1t may, the case as It. now
stands is undecided any further than
that it is settled that the complaint
states a cause of action, and until a
final judgment is secured one side
has as much right to lay claim to a
victory as the other.
In view of all of this and in view
of the further fact that the order
made by the secretary of state to
State Printer Duniway directing the
publication of the argument is con-
sidered defective, State Printer Dun
iway has declined to accept the copy
and will not proceed with the print
ing Of the matter until he has the
benefit of the opinion of the attor-
ney general which will probably be-
rendered in the course of the next
few days.
In the case brought by Duniway
to restrain the publication of an ar
gument filed by w. j. Clark in which
he covertly attacks the state printer
and to the complaint of which at
torney general Crawford demurred,
the demurrer was also overruled,
and a restraining order denied and
she secretary of state given five days
In which to answer The status of
his case is the same as that of the
Joseph case, and Mr.. Duniway's ac-
ion with relation to it the same.
Crowded for Time.
In addition to having these obsta-
lies thrown in it's way the state
printers office is also crowded for
ime as the pamphlet must be pub
ished by September 8. None of the |
arguments, though complete and |
'eady, were turned over to the state |

phlet was sought to be restrained in

Interpretation of the decision rem
dered in the case yesterday after
noon by Judge Galloway.
That was the announcement made
today by State Printer Dunlway on
the subject, and It also applies to
an argument filed with the secretary
Of state by w. j. Clark, assembly
candidate for state printer, and the
publication of which was sought to
be restrained in an action brought
before Judge Galloway by State
Printer Duniway on the ground that
1t was in violation of the direct pri-
mary law.
Status of Case Peculiar.
The decision Of Judge Galloway
gives both cases a peculiar status.
In the case brought by Joseph he
sought to restrain the publication of
the argument of the Republican
state central committee in the pub
licity pamphlet on the ground that
the committee had unlawfully con-
Epired with the assembly crowd TO
favor its candidates, and that under
the law the committee could not ia
vor one set of candidates over the
other-that it must remain neutral
as to factions. The attorney gen
eral on behalf of the secretary Of
state demurred to the complaint on
the ground that it did not state
facts sufficient to constitute a cause
of action. After listening to the ar
gument Judge Galloway overruled |
the demurrer, but refused to grant |
a temporary injunction restraining
the secretary of state from publish
ing the argument, and gave the sec
retary of state FIVE days in which to
answer. The attorney general de-
clined to plead further in the matter,

Example Set by Lincoln.

when Lincoln ran for the legis-
ture in Illinois the first time, and
before the people had become ac-
Quainted with him, he made a
speech to his constituents, telling
them of his political principles, and
he said it was their right and duty
to know all about their representa-
tives.
When the word Democrat had Q
certain meaning as respects political
issues and the word Whig embodied
certain political beliefs, there was
not so much need for a personal de-
by the candidates, but now
when the partisan name Is no guide
to candidates opinions, it is abso-
lutely essential for every candidate
TO declare what he stands for. And
especially is It desirable this year.

Here is an interesting dispatch
from Chicago pri nted in the New

a millionaire telling his hearers
that he made his millions by rob-
bling the people, that all mono
polists do, but that he had begun
to recover his conscience and
was going to devote his wealth
to fighting the system which

entertainment provided by the
City club at it's luncheon to-day.

He said he was a disciple of

Every time a man deceives he

What difference there is be-

One can look the world in the

Obituary..

On March the 3rd at IL O'Clock
the death angel visited the COM
munity of Twins Store KY, and
claimed as it's victim the spirit
of R. P. Smith. He had been in
declining health for about eight
or nine months, his death being
due to that dreadful disease con-
sumption. The deceased was 80
years and four months old when
the end came.
He had been engaged in the
mercantile business at that place
for about eleven years and had
been a very successful business
man. He was not only liked by
his home people but had many
friends wherever he went. He
leaves a wife, two children, a
widowed mother, five brothers
and a host of relatives and
friends to mourn his death. He
was a loving father and devoted
husband. He belonged to F..
and A. NJ. by which fraternity
he was laid to rest at Friendship
church.
Farewell dear Robert, but not forever
There will be glorious dawn,
We shall meet to part no never
On the resurrection morn.
Though thy darling form lies sleeping
in the cold and silent tomb,
Thou shalt have glorious waking
When the blessed Lord doth come.
