Thera is no question of Substitution

There is no question of substitution
of the Recall for impeachment. I'M
peaohment is designed for malteasanoe
in office. The Recall is designed for
misrepresentativeness in office. The
judiciary must be independent. II is
is indepedent of bosses, it will be in
dependent of popular majorities. If it
is not independent of bosses, then di-
rect control is necessary to end the
tyranny of the bosses. But the con-
stitutions nowhere say or intend that
judges shall be sovereign. That would
be "solecism. at least in a republican
government" said Thomas Jefferson.
If the people can empower Legislatures
to remove judges for malfeasance
without destroying judicial indepen-
denoe then the people can directly

JOSEPH I. HINKLE

Republican candidate for the Legis-
lature before the Primaries April 10th
is a native of Kentucky and came to
Umatilla county in 1884 with his
parents, who settled on homestead
in the Juniper country north of Pen.
dleton. He received his education in
the public schools of this county and
in Willamette University at Salem,
Oregon, and began his career in pub
lio life as publisher Of the Farmers g
Alliance Herald at Pendleton, 1912.
He taught in the public schools of the
county for three years, and was ad-
mitted to the bar in May 1897. lie
immediately opened a law office at
Pendleton, where he practioed for IL
years, making q success of his profess
sion and acquiring moderate COM
potency. lu 1908 he began directing
his energies aud his savings from the
law business to the building of the
Hinkle ditch at Echo, one of the big
gest irrigation enterprises undertaken
in this end of the county. and ono
which has added $l.000.000 to the
taxable wealth of the county and pro
vided homes for hundreds of people
where an uninhabitahle desert OK
listed before.
In 1908 Mr.. Hinkle retired from
active law practice and moved with
his family to his alfalfa farm at the
mouth of Butter creek. where he now
has 200 acres of alfalfa in highly
improved state Of cultivation, from
which he derives an Independent in
come, as he says, to supply any
reasonable mans wants.
For the past year Mr.. Hiukle has re-.
Bided at Hermiston OH account Of the
school facilities for his children.
He is legal adviser foI the city of
Hermiston. a numtar of water users
associations and private ditch com
panies, and enjoys the confidence and
esteem of the people generally, who
regard his remarkable success IN his
own lines of endeayor as a fair oriter-
on by which to judge his ability 20
handle the affairs Of others.
In private life he is clean aud whole
some, having an elegant and talented
family. aud is responsive TO every call
or move for the moral uplift and So
oial purity of the community in which
he resides.
Politically, Mr.. Hinkle is Repub-
lican. having affiliated with the Ie'
publican patty for the past IL or ii
years. pIior to that he was popu-
list, for which he claims he has no
apology to make. Like many of the
populists after the dissolution OF that
party, he sought the Republican party
as the best available means for the
accomplishment of political reforms,
He is prominent member Of the
Peoples Power League of the State,
and one of the trainers of the direct
primary law and Statement No. !.
However, he frankly states that while
the progressive legislation for the past
l2 years under republican control is
wonderful improvement over the
old methods. it does not follow hy any
means that the so.called Oregon Sys-
tenn is perfect OF that 1t may not yet
be Infinitely improved. Instead OF
blindly lighting the progressive ideas
OF the day, those who arc inclined to
criticise the system should devote

their energies to lite correction and

Mr.. Hinkle's hobby, if any, is irri.
cation and country home building.
He may. therefore, be counted for
any NJ easures that will promote the
irrigation of arid lands and encourage
their settlement by thrifty farmers.
and so he may be counted for better
schools, better roads. cheaper railway
and water transportation and any
measure calculated to make the coun-
try home more attractive and desira-

MIR. Hinkle's recent election as
permanent secretary and treasurer Of
the Oregon Irrigation congress is not
only reward of merit to himself, hut
an honor to Umatilla county. This
position will give him prestige in the
legislature in all matters pertaining to
irrigation and kindred subjects.

President Taft roasted the peoples
power movement in Massachusetts in
an address before the legislature Mon
day. He bitterly denounced what be
termed the soap box presidential pri.
mary as an "open tvenue for fraud
and violence" and while discussing
the recall of judges he asserted that it
is impossible for the people to directly
participate in oil governmental fuuc-
tious. Dispatches say that the Pres

the day. This would be stress enough

his digestive organs instead of his
brain in defining the rights OF the peo
pie to govern themselves.

ocToGANERIAN MILLIONAIRE.

Washington, March 27.-The senate
today declared Senator Stephenson't
election valid and acquitted him OF
the charge OF corruptly expendins
$107, ,7ss in the Wisconsin primaries.
The vote was 40 to "a. Twenty
eight Republicans and twelve Demo
Gratis voted in favor of Stephenson and
eighteen Democrats and sixteen Re-
ppblicans voted against.
Stephenson declared: Il never spent
dollar wrongfully in my life'' He
declared he felt vindication was due
him.
Before the vote Senator Pomerone
of Ohio spoke in reply to arguments
by Senators Brstow and Kenyon In
favor of unseating the Wisconsin
senator.
Extravagant use of money had oc-
CURED in the Wisconsin primary. Mr.
Pomerone conceded, but he declared
that the responsibility of this rests
with congress and the general assem-
bly, Of Wisconsin for failing to enact
laws to condemn it,
1t Is long step from bribing q
voter to the act of hiring a man tc
devote his time and energies to the
canvass in behalf of his principles "
asserted Senator Pomerone. 1T is q
long step from the employment OF a
man to work at the polls to bring in
voters to the brfbing or purchasing a
voter. The distance between the two
classes of cases is measured by the
distuFfce between legal and Illegal pro-
ceedings
Senator Pomerons took issue with
Senator Bristow's statement that II
was a corrupt practice to employ
newspaper specials, either by way OF
editorial or advertisement. "Thas 1t
should be regulated by law concede. !.
added the Ohio senator
