THE NEXT BONE OF CONTENTION.
ITbvr that the State and countr
elections are decided, the next
bone oi contention will be who
EUSlt BUCGCCU ! AX iUUUUCII III
the United States Senate, i Of
coarse Mitchell's successor must
be a Democrat, since the majority
in the nest Legislature will be
Democratic and vote lor the elec
tion of a Democrat to fill Mitch
ell's shoes.
Among the aspirants lor the
fcigb and honorable position we
name Dr. J. C. Hawthorne, Jas.
H. Slater, 8. F. Chad wick, J. V.
ITesmith, and Judge Primm
They : are .the riost prominent
cow, but we doubt whether eith
r named will . be considered a
suitable by ' the Legislature to
assemble. Multnomah county
already has secured the Governor,
and it there is to be an equal di
vision of the spoils, according to
thS Jacksoniau idea, that county
cannot consistently press Or Haw
thorne's claims. Slater is a d. d.,
as interpreted by J. W. For
ney's enemies, and generally re
garded as an old, worn-out, bro
kendown political hack, without
wheeli, coupling pole or horses;

position within its gift when it

one knows whether Gov. Chad
wick is seeking the position, and
as yet he has not developed the
strength he may be possessed of.
bauds and lay they are clean of
the defeat of a) portion, of the
Democratic State tbket,and Dem

io' Judgo Primra. He was re

. a J . a at
nui it musi must not be fcr-
gotten that in the selection of the
candicates on the Democratic
Congressionnl and State tickets
;this year Southern Oregon was
altogether left out in the cold.
.Eastern Oregon, Multnomah
.county and the Willamette ralley
ftrete all remembered, and repre
a m m
aemauves oi muse sections were
tfarored with nominations. Un-
der those circumstances it is very
'likely that there will beany nam
;Der oi ox men pernaps tne en
itire Southern Oregon delegation
to point to this fact, and argue
'that it is dje this part of the
Btate that one of our citizens be
preferred. It is also pmbable
Abat this delegation will also ar
gue that the wants of Southern
Oregon, in the matter of national
legH-'ticn. are many, and that as
I"citcra Oregon and the Willam
ettt? vaitey hare enjoyed the priv
ilege . jointly heretofore of nam
ing the Senator, it is now time
that the people here should hare
something to say with this regard,
and name a man from Southern
Oregon whom they know i will
look after and advance the inter
ests of Southern Oregon. If the
Bo nth e rn Oregon delegation go
united, and contend in this spirit
for the election of a Southern
Oregon man, there is no doubt
thev will be successful. Withont
the votes of our delegation- there
can be no election ; and it would
be a masterstroke if, by expressed
determination to accept no one

ebpleije 'Senatorwe 'so ranch.
eed to" secure ; appropriations
for thrimprerement of our har
bors, the aurrty of our lands, and
the development of our natural
resources. It will be strange it
our members elect do net go to
the Legislature with the knowl
edge that they are tent there to
represent the people who elected
them, and it will also be strange
ljf they do not having the baN
ance of power elect a man whose
interests are with us and for us to
the Senate. - Let him come in as a
compromise man or otherwise,but
the motto of ' our representatives
should be: "Let him come, from

The reports received up to the

W htteaker is' eI.ected to Congress
by from 500 toOO majority. As
to who is elected Governor ... re-
mains in doubt, but Thayer's
"chances seem to oe better than
those of Beekman, and it is quite
probable that Thayer is elected
by a rery small majority. There
is no doubt of the election of
Earhart, Iiirech, Carter and Pow

In the event of the election of
either Thayer or ' eekman (and
we think the actual result will
not be known until the official
count of l he vote is announced)
it is certain the Governor will ns
a good man. AW will agree with
us iu the assertion that two better
men uever ran for the same office,
in this or any other State. The
people will be satisfied to hear of
the election of either. :
