Peculiar Political Situation Prevails
in Oregon, Owing to Popularity
Of Governor Chamberlain.
Although the Next Legislature VIII
be Almost soldly Republican, "
the Expressed Wishes Of the
Voters Are Complied With,
They Must Vote for
Democrat.

Portland, Ore.-Governor G. e..
Chamberlain, Democrat, is the choice
Of the people of oregon for the United
states senatorship, to succeed Charles
w. Fulton, Republican, and Repub-
lican legislature has been chosen to
elect him. Chamberlain victory IL
more in the nature OF a personal tri-
umph Oregon normally is Repub-
lican, and in 1904 Roosevelts plural
ity was 42,434. Governor Chamber
lain has twice been elected governor
CT this state.
The selection of Chamberlain by the
people is but a preliminary step to the
senatorship. In oregon candidates
for the legislature align themselves
either in the "Statment No. l" col
umn or in the "Anti-Statement No. l"
column. Statement No. l" is pledge
to support in the Legislature the can
didate having the endorsement OF the
PEOPLE, and the ants prefer to elect
a senator by the old system.
The complexion of the next legis-
lature. as indicated by the returns,
will be almost solidly Republican, and
It may be the lot of Republican leg
islature to send a Democrat to the
senate. Already there is talk of de-
tections from the ranks Of the state
ment No /" legislators, and 1t is not
improbable that in the seven months
intervening between now and the date
of the next session of the legislature
some plan may be devised to beat
Chamberlain and send Republican
10 the United States senate.
From the figures at hand It would
appear that there will be about forty
eight statement No. T. men in the
next legislature, including seventeen
senators and thirty-one representa-
tiyes. 1t requires about forty.six
votes to elect.
