Leslie, of .course, pub lished in the Oregonian, (with adroit reserve between the lines) the news that Dr. Kuykendall had the election sure and was serenely awaiting tne assem bling of the legislature, the ap plause of a listening senate to command. With this expres sibn of confidence, the West Side Enterprise takes issue and defies the Doctor to evidence to warrant the claim that he can secure the support of a ma jority of the numbers of the senate. Dr. KtiykendaH, or his friends, have also had circu lated through the press the an nouncement that he is the can didate of Senators Mitchell and Fulton. Again this paper takes issue and defies the Doctor to have the two or either of the United States Senators say they prefer his promotion over other friends they have in the Senate. The fact is E. V. Carter, who is a prominent candidate, sup ported Senator Fulton when he was a candidate for the United States Senate as well as did Dr. Kuykendall.' Through the sup port of Senator Fulton, Carter has as much claim on Senator Mitchell as Kuykendall has. As between the two candidates, Carter is much more popular among the senators and the in terests of Oregon would be much better subserved with Car ter as president of the senate than with Kuykendall. There is a strong disposition among Oregon republicans to bury fac tional politics and politicians and the opportunity is promi nently before the State Senate. The election of Carter will mean the organization of the legisla ture on a business basis; of Kuykendall on a political basis. Carter is better qualified for the place. Four years ago, when he was sent to the legislature for the first time, he was elected speaker and was conceded to be a model presiding officer. At the special session following, he j again served with unanimous! satisfaction. He is absolutely! inapproachable to schemers and j jobbers. In his decisions as! Speaker he was just, and his appointment of committees wasi made with an eye single to the ! state's interests. He retired from the legislature a popular 5 man and with a vote of thanks !; by bis tellow members.
