for city attorney, yesterday tendered
hi declination. Mr. Curtis Hates that
he 1 adverse to running for an office
that neissuth a poorr.alary and disclaims
any desire to actively engage In politic.

Mr. Curtis' letter Is as follow-.
'Astoria, Nov. Jl. -Mr. Samuel El
more, Chairman, ami Members of the
Republican City ConventionGentle
men: I have been notified that at the
convention of the republican party of
the cltv of Astoria I received the unan
imous nomination for the office of city
attorney. I desire to thank the com
venllori and the republicans of Astoria
for the confidence reposed In me and
the honor conferred. j
"The office of city attorney ut one j
of the most Important In the city gov- j
eminent and the poorest paid. The j
sahirv Is Inadequate to the services per
formed, as upon the sound Judgment I
of the cltv attorney depends, to a great j
extent, the business Interest of the
cltv. I regret that I cannot accept the ;
nomination, being dislrous of not par
ticipating actively in politic, und not
being willing to incur the expense of a
political campaign for an office the
salary of which I lower than is paid
common laborers on the street of the
cltv. und which Is subject to reduction
at the hands of the common council. 1
therefore most re peel fully decline the
nomination. C. J. CURTIS."

led up this office by 'phone last even

LOOKS EASVf OR FllION
WILL BE ELECTED OX THE
FIRST BALLOT,
No Longer Any Question of HI
Success In the Itace tor the
ttenatorship.
The election of C. W. Fuiton to the
United State senate I now practically
assured. That he will have enough
support to elect him on the first bal
lot seems certain, and the effort of
his friend now will be directed to
ward securing for him a rousing vote
that will be in the nature of a tribute
to his unwavering faith to his party.
as well as attesting h'.B popularity In
11 section of the state. The time
for the session Is growing short and in
terest 1 Increasing in the ' election.
There are, perhaps, a few other aa
nlrants for the place outside of Gover
nor Geer, but that Mr. Fulton is the
only candidate whose chance Is worth
considering is the opinion of ait well !
posted men.
The Indication are that Mr. Fulton
will receive the vote of most of the
members of the Muultnomah delega
tion, as well as the support of the rep
nresentativo of the outside counties.
It Is a remarkable fact that the other
alleged candidates, such as Messrs.
Bourne. Scott, McBrlde and ' others,
have steadfastly maintained that they
were not in the race, and it would
surely seem that' the Astoria man ha
a clea,- field. This belief prevails all
over the state.
Acco:-dlng to the Portland Journal
Mr. Fulton will be elected on the first
ballot. The Journal prints the fol-
iiwlng figures from a friend of Mr.
Fulton, showing , the strength of the
various "aspirants" at the present
time.
Fulton ..3f

Scott 12
Bourne 8
Moody 5
Total republican members 73
"This is giving the roost liberal esti
mate to the following of the oppon
ents of Mr.. Fulton," said the gentle
man in question to the Journal re
porter, "and. In realltyv Fulton will
have more vote than 36 when the
legislature "meets. I believe he really
has about W members of the assembly
'who will stand by hirtl throoh Ihtt it
and thin. ' ' ""';
"In assigning five vote to Miklt!i
A. Moody I do o upon the theory thl
there will be that many who would
(UDoort th congressman before any
one else, I regard Moody s one of
the possibilities, when Fulton I elim
inated. ' That t . were Fulton
subtracted from the problem, Moody
comes clostly next as to possibilities.
'This Is also dependent upon the
theory that Mr. Cortett doe not be
come ft candidate. -
"Fulton will -receive all scattering
rote that will go to other candidate
at first, on -he principle of tne 'band
wamn.' He will be elected senator,
probably upon the first ballot, or, If
not then, at a very early date there
after." PERSONAL MENTION
