Opposition Is Beginning to Weaken
in Belief That Leader Will
Suffer Loss.
FULTON IS GOING TO WIN OUT
Strength Of Astoria Candidate II
Openly Recognized by Those
Who Would BE Pleased
at His Defeat.

Salem, Feb. l2.-It looked yesterday
more strongly than It had the day be-
fore as II the senatorial contest would
be prolonged to the last day Of the ses-
sion. Today it looks that way more
strongly than yesterday, and few are to
be found who expect an election or even
any important changes sooner than the
last day.
II the Legislature shall take the usual
oyer-Saturlay adjournment this week
there will be five more joint ballots be-
fore the final day Of the session. ON
the final day there may be one ballot
or there may be score. or as many
more as the joint assembly may see fit
to take and can find time to take be-
tween noon and midnight. And IL an
election cannot be accomplished then
the joint assembly may adjourn until
the next day and go at 1t again. In
fact, the legislature may contiue to
hold daily sessions and daily joint bal
lots as long as 1t should choose, but the
members would receive no compensa-
ton for their services after the regular
day set for adjournment. II Is within
the range Of probability that in case
of failure to elect on Friday a session
might be held on the Saturday follow
ing the regular day of adjournment.
but prolongation OF the contest beyond
then is only barely possible.
The surprise of the present week has
been the holding together in solid
frcnted phalanx Of the Fulton people.
II was all along contended by the OPP
position forces that unless Fulton
could make gains this week he must
expect to lose some votes, and this
view seemed so logical that it was par
ticipated In by most people. irrespective
Of their sympathles. But FGiton has
made no gains ana neither has he suf-
fered losses. Since Fulton has demon
strated that in declaring he could and
would hold his people together he knew
whereof he spoke, some of his oppon-
ents are inclined to take rather more
seriously than before that other claim
voiced so frequently by Fulton since
the legislative session began, I am go
ing 10 win out"
Fulton now has 35 votes, counting |
his own. Representative Hume and
Jones, of Lincoln, are the only members
outside of the Multnomah delegation |
who have not cast in the fortunes with !
some leading candidate. II Fulton
should gain both Of these he would
have 81, or seven fewer than the num-
Der necessary to elect, In the ordi-
nary course Of balloting from day to
day it would seem most improbable
that he could get others. But on the
final day, when the hands of the clock
crawl around toward midnight, any
sort of development would not be sur
prising.
Binger Hermann has not yet arrived
at Salem, and 1t is understood he will
not come until next week. No open
obbying in his behalf is being done,
md 4 looks as though he may not be
to get into the game at all.
nut II he does there may be some good
opportunities next week, especially
llong toward the end thereof.
