i New York state furnished one of
the chief surprises of the election, re
versing the present Pemocratlc ma
pority of twenty-four In the state as
f.embly anil electing a Republican ma
Jorlty of fifty or upward. The change
lemoves the united support which
both branches of the legislature here
tofore have given Governor Dlx's pol
ley. In New York city Tammany's
control was shaken, but not overcome
Tammany candidates In Manhattan
and the Hronx being elected, while
those in Rrooklvn and Queens county
were defeated by fusion candidates.
New .lersey similarly furnished a
surprise by the probable reversal of
control of the legislature, the returns
Indicating Republican majorities In
the senate and assembly.
In Kentucky James R. McCreay
(Dem ) was elected governor by a ma
Jorltv estimated at 20,000 to 40,000.
A Democratic legislature also was

The critical manner in which tlx led
eral supreme fourt IISlSMd to argu
monts that the Initiative and refer I
dum method of legislation In th's coun
try is unconstitutional brought cn
coutageinent to the friends oi tbi
tern. Oral arguments on both sit! i of
the question were completed before
the court adjourned for the day.
B. 8. Plllsbury of San Finnc'sco and
R. R Punway of Portland, Or ., m
heard in opposition to the method in
two Oregon cases. When Mr. pills
bury remarked that there could not,
with due regard for the federal consti
tution, be two legislative powers in a
Etate, nnmely, the legislature and the
BeOjUti Justice Burton interrupted
Mm:
"What Is a ?tate ((institution but nn
organized act of legislation by the
people?" Inquired tho justice
"That is expressly what I under
stand it to be," responded Mr. Pills
bury.
"Then there Is legislative power In
the people."
"To make a constitution; yea."
Mr. Plllsbury suggested that the peo
ple mittbt put Into their state consti
tution anything not In conflict with
the restrictions of the federal constl
tution.
White Asks for Proof.
"What are the restrictions which
you claim are violated In this partic
ular case?" inquired Chief Juatlce
White.
"The provision for a legislature."
The chief Justice asked him to read
It.
"I cannot read It; It Is implied in a
dozen place." said the attorney. "And,
also, the constitution has been con
strued by this court to imply that
there must be a legislature."
The chief lustlce asked for the
ensos in which the point bad been in
Issue, but the attorney did not give
them.
It wn further argued thai Inxr; Im
posed under the Initiative method
were not bv "due process of law" and
Violated "the equal protection of Un
laws" so lone as some persons were
taxed under initiative laws and others
under legislative enactments.
Attorney General Crawford of Ore
gen declared ttjnt the question of
nether the method violated the guar
anty of the United States in the fed
eral constitution of a 'republican form
of government to every state" was a
political question for congress to de
clde and not a Judicial one for the
courts to pass upon. He Inquired how
the court would enforce Its decision
if congress and Oregon were opposed
to it.
Frank S. Grant and William C Ren
bow of Portland! Ore., spoke In the In
terest of "home rule."
States Alone Interested.
Oeorge Ered Williams of Boston ar
gued that on'v a party to the "guar
anty" to states could ask the I'nlted
States to make good its promise that
every state should have a republican
form of government. A corporation,
he said, could not do so, because the
guaranty was to the states.
"I have heard no state Objecting to
the Oregon form of government." said
Mr. Wllllsms.
Chief Justice White suggested that
the word "form" in the constitution
lent support to Mr. Williams' Interpre
tation of the word "guaranty "
Jackson II Ralston of this city con
tended that the opponents of the meth
od were wrong in arguing that the
word "republican" was used In the
constitution as , synonym for "repre- i
tentative." lie argued it was used 'n
contrast to "monarchlal."
Justice Holmes suggested this in
terpretition would be in conformity
