Oregon 5 SenatOrship.

Of the next senatorial election in
Oregon the Portland Welcome saws:
1t is being somewhat hoarsely whis-
pered that there promises to be a
clash of interests next January in
the legislature over the senatorial
election. Possibly, but it will
amount to little if there is.
Senator Mitchell will be his own
successor, if be lives, and he is too
strongly fortified for any successful
raid to be made upon his entrench-
ments. All the talk about ex-Gov.
Moody, Rocky Earhart, or any one
else succeeding Senator Mitchell
emauates from the small fry politi-
clans, who are always like the
lrishman that returned home in
high dudgeon from the funeral of
his brother because there had been
no row to enliven the affair. The
Dolph faction will be still as mice,
offering no antagonism and in fact
will support him, since the senior
senator, though scarcely yet upon
the threshold of his second term,
is looking forward to third.
That is anticipating exceedingly,
to be sure, but Oregon politics are
becoming more and more manipu-
lated with a view to the future.
