TIIE SUNDAY OTIEG OXTAN", rORTLATD, JULY 2j, 1920
SENATE PRESIDENCY ;
CHASED BY SOLOi
Conferences of Forces of As
pirants Held.
EDDY, R1TNER, BANKS VIE
Three Men Acknowledge Theni
bclvcs as Covcling Orrice Un
pledged Senators Control.
Legislative politics, particularly
the organization of the state senate,
has occupied its full share of atten
tion the last week. There was a con
ference of Uie forces, or part of them,
of B. L. Eddy of Douglas county, in
Portland, and Roy W. Ritner of Uma
tilla had his conferences in Salem
Friday. These two, with "W. W.
Banks of Multnomah, are the three
acknowledged aspirants for presi
dent of the state senate.
There is a group which is consid-
rnH an im nled s-ed to anyone. In
this group are Charles Hall of Coos
and Curry, Gus C. Moser 01 muiuhi
mah. Walter Jones of Lane. A. W.
Norblad of Clatsop. Thomas Ryan of
Clackamas, Dr. J. C. Smith of Jose
phine. Isaac Staples or jviuitnoman.
W. W. Strayer of Baker. Charles j
Kills or Oram, narnej auu
To this list of unpledged can be
added several others who have not J
actually given a written pledge, but
whose inclinations and sympathies
are toward Eddy, Ritner or Banks.
Supporters Are Listed.
Senator Moser ticked off the fol
lowing names as those he considers
pledged to Eddy, and Senator Vinton,
an ardent Eddy supporter, agreed
that Moser was right as far as he
went, but that other names should
be appended. Senator Vinton, how
ever, did not suggest which particu
lar names should be added. Anyway,
here is the support which Senator
Moser guesses as for Eddy and which
Senator Vinton corroborates: Eddy,
Vinton, Thomas. Lachmund, LaFol
lette, Gill. Joseph; seven votes.
"-lt is much better than that." says
6enator Vinton, "much better."
"I've made splendid progress and
the situation is most encouraging,"
Senator Eddy said.
In considering the Ritner support
It is customary to say that all of the
eastern Oregon senators will vote
for Ritner. The term is somewhat
elastic, but this much is known: Thus
far no senator from that part of the
state has said that he will not vote
for Senator Ritner, and it is common
knowledge that he has the written
pledge of colleagues in the Willam
ette valley.
Eddy Conference Mont TJnwtunl.
The Eddy conference in Portland
was most casual. The senator wrote
before coming that he would be in
Portland on certain dates. Various
senators drifted into town, prompted
by strictly personal motives. Senator
Eddy was here to attend the wedding
of his son; Senator Vinton has a big
crop of clover seed and was here to
see about selling it; Senator Ryan
had some matters to look up regard
ing the Mount Hood loop road; Sen
ator Is'ickelsen was attending to road
matters; Senator Lachmund just hap
pened to be down from Salem on busi
ness. But these and others all talked
politics. They discussed the Eddy
campaign and its prospect of success.
The whole affair was very informal.
Then the battle' front shifted from
Portland to Salem. The Elks' conven
tion served to attract members of the
legislature to their old haunts. About
a dozen members of the senate, either
present or prospective, were on the
ground, some erf these being Eddy
supporters and some whose align
ment is toward Ritner or Banks.
Senator Ritner himself arrived at
Salem Friday afternoon and there
were conferences Friday night until
early Saturday morning.
Apparently there are enough un
pledged senators to control the sit
uation, so that until these non-committal
senators make a selection, and
in the case of men like Hall and
Ryan, at least, no selection will be
made until November, the issue is in
doubt. Hold-over senators will be
free to pledge, but Hall and Ryan
have declared that until they know
they are elected in November they
have no vote to promise.

Washington fair will open Monday, J
August 23. on the 'grounds midway
betweon Chehalis and Centralia. In
dications are that this fair will
eclipse all previous efforts and Sec

his plans accordingly.
Since this fair is the opening one
of the north Pacific racing circuit,
owners of the track horses of the
coast who enter the races at the
various fairs make this point the one
where horses are tried out to see
what their merits are likely to be
for the season. As a result, lovers
of track events here have a better
opportunity than elsewhere in the
northwest to see the best racing
blood of the Pacific coast in action.

The sale of a tract of 2000 acres
comprising more than 75,000.000 feet
of Douglas fir timber, situated 16
miles southeast of Eugene, to J. K.
Cain, formerly a resident of Portland,
was announced today. The property
was owned mainly by the First Na
tional bank of Eugene, certain inter
ests being held by other parties. The
purchase price was not given out, but
it is understood to be above $100,000.
Both buyer and sellers were repre
sented in the transaction by the Tim

the Board of Trade building.
Mr. Cain announced that he would

made available by the building of this
