In this statement he proclaims Ids high purpose of using the great influence and power of his office to carry into effect, so far as lies within his opportunities, the will of the people of the state and of the party which has been given control of its affairs. While declaring himself absolutely independ­ ent and under no personal obligations to any faction within the party, and while expressing his intention to abstain from any interference in the pending contests over the senatorship and the organiza­ tion at the two houses of the legislature, he serves notice very plainly upon all Concerned that he will not hesitate to intervene at any time and to take part In those contests, if he deems such action , aooosMi) in the interest of the party of the people. f These declarations show that Judge _ Yates has a mind of his own and intends to mark out a line of action which will prove satisfactory to the people of Illi­ nois. They show that it is his purpose to act upon his own judgment as to what is for the advantage of the people "tripod of his party, and that he does not : intend to submit to the dictation of any element or faction in the performance of ^jhis official duties. All this is as, it should be. He was y ipected governor, and the overwhelming majority of the voters of the state who ~Tig3aoed him in that office did so because they had confidence in his ability and Judgment and expected to secure the benefit of both in the discharge of the duties of that position. He cannot please those voters better than by being governor in fact as well as in aame, and tlioy «u e gratified at his public decl&ra of his purpose to meet their expec- itions in that regard, thus far in ad- ance of his inauguration.--The Journal, Springfield.
