Governor and New Stato En glnccr AH In I'nvor of Irriga tion Mcthodi on Gigantic Plan In Future. (Sptcbl to The Bulletin.) SALEM, Nov. 28. -For tho pant 10 days Salem ban been almost a storm center of political activity In tho legislative arena and for tho first tlmo In many blennlumn it begins. to appear that tho state capital in get ting almost as much Consideration from thn ambitious In legislative or ganization squabbles as tho Imperial lobby In Portland. These little conclaves of tho con tending factions havo offorcd a flrat hand chance to study tho situation from this angle and apparently tho presidency of tho ncnato and tho speakership of the house aro a little more complicated problems than at first blush thoy appeared to bo. It had been conceded on all hands for a number of -weeks that Billy Vinton of Yamhill would hava a walkaway for the presidency ot the senate, but one or two of his strong est henchmen let the cat out ot tho bag a few days ago whon they pro claimed that ho bud 14 votes sewed, up In a sack and was suro to walk away -with it. If Vinton has only 14 votesand If he had nny more his first lieuten ants would say so ho hasn't a walk away by any odds nnd It Is barely posslblo that the other 16 may effect somo sort ot a compromise on an other man and elenn up tho Yam hlllor. Vinton was one ot Gus Mosor's running mates two years ago whea Gus landed tho presidency, and, as ha has been hinted at before, he -wasn't altogether populnr with every one la the state senate. Ous had a good organzatlon but It was badly cracked In places by the time Uw session was over, and uales taew has been a change of heart darfag the past two years, many a hold over senator went home very, Tery soro at the Moaer organization, even though he supported It early In tho session. It must also be remombcred that It Is Gus Moser, et al., making the claims, and tho samo Gus Moser was confident that ho -would bo nomin ated for governor by at least tho measly margin of 15,000 votes, Gus didn't actually mako tho claim him self as to tho 14 votes, but Arthur Orton did. Ho stated thatAhere woro that many llepubllcan votoa lined up for Vinton and somo Demo crats on tho side would also vote for him, but no published claims would be authorized by tho Vinton following until tho full majority of Republicans needed could bo lined up behind Vinton no as to assure a Republican organization. Of coursa tho Democratic votes would- bo ac cepted then to swell the total. 1$. L. Eddy of Roseburg and Bob Fnrroll of Portland nro ranking stab for tho sent against Vinton amd It Is baroly posslblo that Farrcll aad Edilv mlcht net together on somo combination which would develop a ono-mnn raco against Vinton. It this is done Billy tho Yamhlller Is apt to have a real, honest to goodnosB scrap on his hands. Over In the houso all bands are confldont. Kap Kublln and Herb Gordon ot Portland nro both confl dont they havo enough to go over. Down this way tho Marlon county mon see a good chanco for Soymour Jones, while Don Sheldon wus up a tow dnys ngo from Southern Orogon nnd snld whon tho votes nro counted that nil you would hnvo to do would bo to keep your glims pooled for Benjamin J., and you would seo tho next speaker. So what can anyonu say about that? Plonty of speakers to go all around nnd overy ono ot thorn with the thing sowed up, In a sack. Tho doubtfulness ot the senatorial situation und tho speakership situa tion both Is evidenced by the rapid fire uppearanco ot candidates 'and tholr henchmen hero. Marlon county has a heavy delegation and It la a fight to lino up tho men from Oils county, as on them may depend (Continued on Page 4.)
