I I- :.. 4.1... TT..:i")t,l4 . bciibwis wnu were nis associates Hint irienus in lite uiull-u States senate. At least they were looked upon by Stanfield '; as friends to the extent that he wired them asking endorse . ment and favorable opinion on his retaining committee ap- - pointments. The Oregonian yesterday is authority for the telegram from Stnnfield and for the replies received by him from Senators Dineen and Phipps, which were as follows : Chicago, 111., Sept. 23, To Hon. Robert N. Stanfield, ,.T ' Portland, Ore.: - , Answering your inquiry of the 23d, my under standing is that recommendations of the committee 't . on committees of the senate have invariably fol lowed by republican conference and I have no means of ascertaining- how thnf mmmiitun u-nnM act In your case. I think my duty to you its a friend ' Is to Inform you that the sentiment as expressed by your friends on the committee was that your can ( didacy as an Independent would be injurious to you : ; ttnd to the party and the hope was expressed that ': you would withdraw your candidacy for the good or the party as a whole. ,i : Kind regards, (Signed) " V':: CHARLES S. DINEEN. ' V "p .';' . New York, Sept. 25. j To Hon. Roliert N. Stanfield, Portland, Ore.: Your message relayed ;from Denver rather sur prising. ' Consensus of opinion as I have gathered it indicates you will run a poor third and merely hurt your party and your own personal standing by re maining in the race. Your friends here feel that you should be controlled by the official result of the primary election even if you were given an unfair deal; also that similar contests have invariably re sulted in defeat of Independent contestant. My por- Bona! friendship for you lends me to make these frank expressions. Can not ascertain how commit tee on committees may act regarding your assign . ments,' but their decision would undoubtedly be ac cepted by republican caucus. Personal I'egaitls. L. C. PHIPPS. So it seems that the opinion held by so manv people of the state is also that of Stanfield's senate associates that he is hurting only himseir and his party bv refusing to . abide by the primary election decision, that he has no chance of election and only endangers the republican majority in . congress by running as an independent.
