S. B. HUSTON MAY BE
Now That Fulton ii Out of Way
May Enter LitU For Plum
IS OLD-TIME HILLSBOROITE
Has Ability, And Would Make a
Strong Campaign in Primary
Word is sent out that Hon. S. B.
Huston Is likely to he n candidate
for the United States Scnitorshiji
to nuecccd Hon, ('has. McNnry,
of Salem. Huston is a promin
ent factor In Republican politics
In the stale, and in a triangular
fight, with Senator McNnry ami
Bob Stmifield in the hustings
with him there would be a
chance, with Portland solidly be
hind Huston, for him to win the
nomination. Huston is a vigorous
campaigner, nntl can show cither
one of his opponents tricks in
running n primary or nnv other
old camimiirn.
He is an able attorney nnd has
ns wide nu acquaintance over the
stnte ns either of the statesmen
pitted against him. He is well
known here, having served as
state .senator in the old davs. lie
is fairly well-to-do, aud has the
time to make a tour of the state.
The Fulton nupiHirt would more
than likely give him the best end
of its efforts in the state nt large,
aud if he shall enter the cam
paign the result will he in doubt
right from the start. Huston has
one son in the U. S. service. His
wife is n daughter of the late
Win. (Iciger of l'orest f!rove, ami
both Mr. nntl Mrs. Huston have
many friends in Washington
county.
