POTATOES MAKE GOOD RECORD IN 1925 ------------ 4------------ Thomas O. Marvin MR. PATTERSON STRONGEST CANDIDATE- SHOULD BE GOVERNOR Portland, Ore., May 13, 1926— (Special.)—Senator I. L. Patterson will be the Republican party nominee for governor. Such is the general prediction now being made here by Republican and Democratic leaders alike. Incidentally it might be remarked in this connection that the splendid showing of strength made by Pat terson lenves no doubt of his suc cess at the general election, and that fact has been a strong element in attracting all classes of repub licans to his standard. A remarkable feature of the cam paign of Senator Patterson ¡3, that from the time of the announcemen* of his candidacy he has maintained a strong lead over his opponents. It has been generally conceded all the while that he would emerge tri umphant in the Willamette Valley the only difference of opinion being as to the size of his plurality, and now that Seymour Jones has an nounced his support of Patterson, it is prophesied that he will carry the valley by a majority, instead of a plurality. It is also predicted that Mr. Pat terson will carry Eastern Oregon. Til« concensus of opinion through out the state is that if nominated, Mr. Patterson would be stronger in the Fall election than any other candidate. He, being a practical farmer, is in sympathy with the farmers' troubles, and will apply business methods for their relief.
