Slade Gorton on the Nov. 7 ballot. ' Gorton will be trying for his fourth term as the Republican incum bent. j; Deborah Senn, the state insur ance commissioner, and former Rep. M aria Cantwell, now an internet ex ecutive promoting her experience in the "new economy," are battling for the right to take on Gorton. ' I Senn got into the contest early, after several potential Democratic heavy weights, all took a pass. Senn, 51, has racked up dozens of endorse ments from labor groups, lawmakers and others. She pointed out that she has won statewide races twice with more than 1 million votes, more than Gorton received in any of his state ,wide races. '- Cantwell, 4 1 , enjoys the advan tage of the millions of dollars she has earned as a software executive at Real Networks. In some ways, getting booted out of Congress after one term In the 1994 Republican tide could turn out to be the best thing that ever hap pened to her politically. She has vowed to spend "whatever it takes" to unseat Gorton, 72. She also says she has a "real world" private-sector experience that makes her a stronger candidate than if she had stayed in Congress. Cantwell, for the moment seems to be ignoring Senn. She said she could win only by making a much larger impression on the voters, not by dissecting her opponents record. Cantwell said, "I look at this as a huge task of a cynical public that doesn't want to hear too much about politics. Senn said she has been battling insurance companies and fighting for lower drug costs for years in her state post and she scoffed at Cantwell's interest in the subject. Democrats say that Gorton, who has been in public life almost continu ously for more than 30 years, is more conservative than most other Wash ington residents and thus vulnerable to an upset. Gauging support for the candi dates at this point is tricky. In Washington "blanket pri mary" system, all Senate candidates including Gorton, will bo on the Sept. 19 ballot. The leading Democratic vote getting, regardless of her percentage, will face the incumbent on the Nov. 7 ballot. Any third party candidate who receives more than 1 percent of primary vote also makes the general election. to the capital and endowment cam paign, the Museum at Warm Springs dedicated a unique donor board at the Museum August 5.

The annual 4-H summer camp was held once again in Peters Pasture, one of the old Land Marks of the res ervation. Camp director Arlene Boileau, said the camp was a big success, as the camp was divided in two sessions. The first was for a younger set of kids up to the age of nine years old, and the second session was for the older girls up to the Eight Grade. The first session started on August 6 and ran to the 12, and was for the younger kids. The second session started on the 13 and ended on the 19"' of Au gust. In the younger group there were 66 children registered for the first ses sion, and in the older group there were a total of 38 youngsters registered for the weeklong session. Peters Pasture, a picturesque set ting deep in the forest and along the Shitike Creek, near Mt. Jefferson. During the week at camp each group had a grand time w ith several projects and planned activities of Arts and Crafts, hiking, swimming, pick ing Huckleberries, and a Sweat Lodge. There were 66 children in the first session, which were the younger ones, and 38 in the second session for the older group. A total of 32 adults were among the campers who assisted with various arts and crafts and other outdoor activities during the two week encampment One day the larger group hiked up to Harvey Lake to pick huckleber ries and have a good swim as one of the big highlights for the group. There are so many things that children can learn at an outdoor camp, and expe rience would never have had if they had not attended the camp. It even gives the adults the enjoyment of the outdoor encampment with the chil dren during the two w eek, stay in the camp area. Everyone can have a learning experience of the outdoor activities. For several years the camp was held at Trout Lake, which was the more desirable location, said Arlene Boileau, camp director. Each year the attendance became greater at which the Trout Lake area was not large enough to accommodate all the camp ers. The move to Peters Pasture gave them more space for all the children who really enjoy the outing. The chil dren are very fortunate to have a camp each year for learning experiences of the outdoors. There are a whole lot of children who don't have this op portunity, especially those who live in the large cities. Here, Peters Pas ture is just the place to be during the summer months. A brief history of Peters Pasture, which once was once a summer range for livestock, and in the earlier years it used to be a Ranger Station, and during the depression it became a CCC camp for several years, where men came in to work. Peters Pasture became a boy's summer youth camp, and after that it sat idol for several years until the 4 H camp moved in. It was said, that it was a hard decision to make to leave Trout Lake, but for more space, Pe ters Pasture fit the need to house all the interested children who want to attend the summer camp.
