It will be well for Republicans to study, carefully and well, the peculiar situation now confront ing them in the selection of a candidate for United States Sen ator at the April primary. The candidacy of Gov. Chamberlain, on the Cake platform, adds new complications to the situation. If the three were to race for the June election it would certainly add material strength to Mr. Ful ton as both Mr. Cake and Mr. Chamberlain are committed to Statement No. 1, or election of a Senator by direct vote of the peo ple, while Mr. Fulton is on record as opposing it. But, at the April primary either Mr. Fulton or Mr. Cake must step aside. We have over into the green pastures but were afraid to jump on account of the barbed wire. 9th. With 30,000 Republican majority behind Mr. Cake would it be possible for Mr. Chamber lain to jump sideways into the the United States Senate by us ing a little soft soap on weak kneed Republicans? We think not. 10th. Should Mr. Fulton be nominated, the conditions would be Entirely Reversed, thus placing Fulton on the defensive instead of Chamberlain which would at least greatly reduce the republican majority. In view of these facts, as we see them, we must say that, to our minds, the safest, surest and best thing for Republicans to do is to vote for Mr. Cake for Uni ted States Senator. OUR OWN FAULT. studied the situation carefully It should go without saying that most of the ills from which we suffer and of which we com plain are those for which we ourselves are chiefly responsible. We are ignorant, careless, indif ferent, reckless it may be, and should not be surprised when brought to face the consequences of our own folly.

Over a Question which should be discussed calmly and dispass ionately and kept within its own limits, men will lose temper and permit their zeal to lead them into a maze of sophistry and angry discussion amicu. wmcn the real question is carried out of its proper relation This is so like the conduct of school boys that we are ready to accept the statement true, that, after all, 'man are but boys grown up. " Why should men say that they will not vote for nor support a man for any office who does or does not subscribe to a measure which relates only to candidates for the legislature ? Why should candidates for county office, or for any office whatever, other than for the legislature, be de nied support because they do or do not accept statement No. 1? Mr. Chamberlain to the con trary notwithstanding this is not "the paramount issue." There are issues of greater moment and insistency. It is time republi cans ceased strife over this minor question and solidify in support of those principles and policies which are distinctly republican. Mrs. F. L. Miller is to return today from Portland where she has been for two weeks taking treatment for an ailment that had affected her hearing. She is much improved. Mr?. Lizzie Robinson, who has been visiting relatives in Benton county for several months, left Wednesday for Portland, enroute to her home at Humiston, Iowa.
