J Pendleton Candidate for Republican domination in Pri-
I mariea a YearAgro Believes Senator Fulton Will Be
Keelecteci ifay Aspire for Toga in the Future.
i.k
Stephen A. Lowell of Pendleton, can-
- a (date . tor. the Republican nomination
for, United States senator in the pri'
maries a year ago, has eliminated him
self from the race whldh will be run
for that office at the general election
next June. At the same time he gives
It a hie belief that Senator Fulton
will be reelected through the same
' causes which are keeping him out of
the race.
"Judge Lowell states. - however, that
he would enter the content for the nom
ination if It were possible, for him to
have the Held against Senator Fulton
and believes he could land the prise,
bat he contends that a divided field,
such as seems certain at this time,
will undoubtedly result in the renomi
natlon and reelection of the present
. senior senator.
-Politics In eastern Oregon have not
s yet begun to bud, let alone to
bloom," said Judge Lowell this morn
Inc, "and there are no senatorial, can
didate! op my way."
, 'How about T. T. Geer?" the Judge
was asked.
, . Boat Think Seer Will Try.
"From what I hear." continued Mr.
Lowell, "H. .M.. Cake and Fred W.
Mulkftv are- practically sure to be In
the contest. It is alab common political
talk that W. 8. U'Ren Intends to become
a candidate. ''while on some sides it is
rumored that Ex-State Senator Coe of
Portland will seek the nomination, mis
1 think means the certain nomination
or senator Fulton.
Senator Tnlton's Strength.
"Senator Fulton la a strong candidate
and has a positive strength. He has
oeen long in pontics ana nas a wiae
acquaintance. There Is much that is
good that can be aald concerning him and
little that Is otherwise. It Is also true
that the argument made against him
that he la not close to the administra
tion Is to a large extent counterbalanced
by the Impression that he has not been
fairly treated at all times In Washing
