So far the Davidson candidacy has

is now generally admitted that the
chief promoter of the governors boom
is Lieutenant Governor w. d. Con-
nor. who would profit by Davidson's
elevation in that it would make him
(Connor) governor. This fact, how
ever, is operating as handicap to the
governors boom, as many legislators,
particularly among the ultraLaFol-
lette members. would resist this eleva-
ton of Conner. However. Connor's
support is not an unmiXed evil to Da-
Wilson's prospects, as Common is a
shrewd and able organizer and manip-
ulator and can general the legislative
fight III his interests perhaps better
than any other man. Not a few Of
Davidson's friends are urging him to
remain out of the fight. reasoning that

no hand in the present contest he will
probably have no serious opposition
next year for denomination for gov
ernor, while if he should be elected
senator he would probably have 4
