Stnnfk'hl and Steiwer forces are at it hammer jind tongs these last days before the primary. Stanfield forces are ' knocking the. Pendleton man on every occasion and are boosting all other candidates lo secure n sufficient split that the junior senator may slip in'. 'Steiwer is equaily intent on educating republicans lo the fact that only two candidates are 1 vally in the race and that "a vote for any one other than Steiwer is a vote for Stanfield." Steiwer is still making large gains because of his ability and per sonality und because he is looked upon as the only republi can candidate who can win in November. Judge Harris, of Eugene, prominently talked as a possible senatorial can didate some months ago, is supporting Steiwer with en thusiasm, and his reputation for good judgment is having much weight. Slanfield's vote is already cut and' dried nnd the outcome -depends on how much his opposition is divided between the other contenders. Political prophets quite generally arc contending that Steiwer will have enough 1 to win. . j ,: I'nh'nnH nnf u Pfirthinrl nn nliliil n. tlwif 4Un in,ul,iln .W.teu !
