Booth, of ljne County, is puoken of as a pos .-ible candidate for United States Senator at the coming session, of the Legislature. Senator Booth is one of the best known politicians in Southern Oregon, and was chairman of the last Republican State Convention, when W. J. Furnish was nominat ed for Governor. Senator Booth's name had been casually mention ed for Governor prior to the con vention, and it was in recognition of his prominence that he was se lected as permanent chairman 1 here a.-e many politicians who declare that Booth could have landed the nomination for Gov ernor had he been willing to per mit his name to be presented at the time. Of late the name of Senator Booth has been heard in connec tion with the presidency of the Stite Senate He was considered quite a formidable candidate for . the place, and it is natural now that he should be discussed as be ing in the field for the higher hon or, the position of United States Senator. Southern Oregon has not had a Senator in many years, so that geographically Senator Booth has an element of location in his favor, but Senator Charles W. Fulton, of Clatsop County, an avowed seeker for the toga, also has this advantage. And so have others. The rumor that Senator Booth may be considered as a factor in the race originated in his own county. A close political friend of Senator Booth is responsible for the statement regarding the Lane County statesman. The intima tion was made that a combine is now being effected in which Sena tors Eooth and Fulton figure prominently. It is further hinted that in the event of Fulton being . unable to land the nomination himself he will throw his strength to Senator Booth and that between them they have enough votes to carry on the prize. Fulton's . strength is unknown, but is rated by a follower as being but a hand ful short of the requisite number necessary to elect. Advices from Salem are to the effect that Governor T. T. Geer is to be considered a Btrictly in the race for Senator. With possibly one exception the Marion County delegation will cast it ballots for the tall sycamore of the Waldos. Several of the Marion County men do not intend to support Geer in definitely, but will ai-sist him with their ballots until be develops his full strength, and then if he is found short they will seek another banner. More than one Republican, while not having any particular! liking for Geer, will feel compelled to vote for him on account of the Mays law. It was through this statute that Geer'i name appeared upub the official ballot of the June election as the Republican choice! for United States Senator. A no' other Republican nime appeared! to divide the honors with Geer Mime dolrgaUis to the Legislature, wLj ;'e?i h;' nvp:n il)iiitie o J their position most keenly, state that they cannot conscientiously vote otherwise than for Geer, as he is the choice of the people of Oregon, as shown by the election, and they argue, further, that the only way in which United States Senators will be elected by popular vote is to give every experiment, like the Mays' law, a fair test. The Speakership is no settled affair. There are three prominent candidates Eddy, of Tillamook and Yamhill; Harris, of Lane, and Davey, of Marion. Eddy is sup posed to have the support of one faction and Harris of another. Harris wished to no to Salem us Senator ut the comming session, but the powers that be in his par ticular country, induced him to forego the ambition and accept a nomination foi Representative in stead, promising him, it is under stood, the Speakership. As for Davey, he is not backed by. either of the Republican factions, but counts upon the unattached Republicans for his support and believes that at this time he has more strength than either of his rivals, Ihe .uultnoman uelega to the appointment of committee clerks in many instances. Port land Telegram. 1( Meant Vilhhift. The Senatorial question is being difcussed bv the people. The vote for Geer and it influence on the legislature is being talked of. All agree that as bi't ween Mr. Wood tlio democratic nominee, and Geer the Governor won; as between Geer and other republicans who may be candidates for the senate, the vote expressed no choice and is not of auv binding force on the lecisla ture. It would seem that the people regard the vote of Mr. Geer not as their choice for Senator among republicans, nut us their preference bet ween a democrat and a republican.
