THE SUNDAY OltEGOXIAN, POIlTLAXDj DECEMBER 1, 1918. 23 VINTON SEES VICTOHY IN SENATE CONTEST Senator Claims 19 Votes Race for President. in SPEAKER FIGHT IN DOUBT Present Situation Indicates That Contest May Invite Appearance of Compromise Candidate. Senator. W..T. Vinton, arriving: In the city luat night, dispelled any doubt as to hia having enough vctcs pledged to elect blm president of the State Senate, by issuing a list. The list contains the names of 17 Republicans and two Demo crats. One of the Republicans was added yesterday. Just for old sake sake. Here Is the list of pledges: Republicans J. A. Hurley, Colon R. Eberhard. Gus C. lloser. A. W. Orton, John GUI. F. C. Howell. A. W. Norblad, T. B- Handley. Walter A. Dlmlck. Loui Lachmund. L L. Patterson. Walter B. Jones. B. U Eddy. J. C. Smith. Ira S. Smith. C. M. Thomas and Mr. Vinton. i Democrats Walter M. Pierce, W. H. sxrayer. v. It is expected that Senator Baldwin, Democrat, will also give his support. Whether Senator R. S. I'arrell will continue his campaign is not known Eddr. who was a tentative aspirant, la on the pledge list. "I wish to express my thanks and ap prrclation. said Senator Vinton last nizht. "for the confidence placed In me, aa attested by the pledges I have re ceived, and I realize the efforts made In my behalf by my friends, aome of whom have served with me in the past." SPEAKERSHIP FORECAST Condi tions unsettled, cloudy; prospect of storm breaking. Considerable wind. It's anyone's fight in the Speaker ship contest and there la ao individual who can assert, truthfully, at this time that be will preside over the House at the coming session of the Legisla ture. The contest appears to be gravl tattng around Seymour Jones and Den ton Burdick. but Ben Sheldon. Herbert Gordon and K. K. Kubll have n in- tention of giving up yet. Overturea have been made to Induce Kubll. Gordon. Fheldon and Jones to pool Issues and form a combine. The object was to solidify these aepiranta and their supporters and array them against Burdick. The plan failed to work, albeit the four candidates would have controlled almost enough votea to elect their choice. The hitch came In the matter of a choice. So far as Kubll was concerned, he saw no occasion to be eliminated, and this waa the senti ment of the others; each of the four waa perfectly willing, it is said, to have merged forces if the other three would drop out. It la possible that the various , con tenders have gone about as far aa they can go and the situation may develop where someone may jump In and be acclaimed as a compromise. There are two or three Representatives hoping for Just such an eventuality. Soma gossips expect to see the fight narrow down to Burdick and Jones, these two now being supposed, to be the high men, with Burdick a few votes stronger than. Jones, but the failure of the merger haa somewhat discounted that possibility. There have appeared on the scene a number of men from varioua parts of the state who are working to assist Burdick. The one surprise of the con test thua far Is the coup which Bur dick engineered with the Multnomah delegation. Not until after the elec tion did the Eastern Oregon man begin an active campaign. First he lined up some 11 of the 13 so-called Eastern Oregon delegates, and then he moved In on Multnomah. For some reason the other candidates had not worked for the Multnomah votes. Kubll was known to have support In the delega ' tlon and Gordon was known to have Multnomah votes, but Burdick worked around and the first thing anyone knew, there were six Multnomah votes in the Burdick column, a substantial f addition to the Eastern Oregon nest egg. Efforts are under way to direct Oscar W. Horne and E. E. Smith to support Jones. These Representatives are on the labor ticket. Representative John A. Westerlund, the colleague of Sheldon, from Jackson County, declares that he la unpledged and. furthermore, he Is in a receptive mood himself in the matter of the speakership. A Medford paper pub lished an Item under a Portland date line ouotinr Sheldon as saying Wester lund had. given him- hia unequivocal pledge in the presence of witnesse This aroused Westerlund, who wrote communication to the paper. In which he says. In part: "Shortly after the Spring primary election Mr. Sheldon called upon me at my office, bringing with him Messrs. S. S. Smith. Bert Anderson and Mayor C E. Gates: these gentlemen came wltn him, but took no particular part In the conversation. Mr. Sheldon asked for my vote for. him as' speaker. I re plied:" Whr all this hurry? Why not wait and see If we are elected first? ...................... .PROMINENT SEATTLE ELK TO PAX TR1BCTB TO PORT- - I. AVIV DEAD.

Medical authorities agree that the after effects of Spanish Influenza and even the ordinary "grip" often leaves the patient in a more or less degre? weakened in one or more of the vital organs such as the lungs, heart, stom ach, liver or kidneys.

Dyspepsia, weakness, nervousness, malnutrition and kindred ailments are known to be more prevalent arter an epidemic of La Grippe.
