TWO MEN POSSIBLE?

That Senator Foster Would Be Over

! ment League Is Interesting
The New. Orleans Times Democrat OF
August 81 says: Despite indications that
a break between Senator Foster and
Governor Sanders is inevitable sooner
or later, because both Of them will be
candidates for United States Senator
from the same town in 1872, adherents
of these two politicians say there will
not be the slightest rupture, and that on
the contrary Senator Foster and Gov
ernor Sanders will stand or fall fighting
together.
/ Many, however, do not credit the as
sertion. They say that Senator Foster
is too farseeing not TO realize that it is
impossible to try to repose Louisiana S
senatorial representation in the little
town of Franklin, to the political neglect
Of the rest OF the State. They say he
must foresee that this would arouse a
storm of opposition, not only from those
Independently inclined, but from the reg
ulars themselves in other parts of the
State, that would mean political ruin for
one if not both of them It is pointed
out that breakers show more plainly
ahead now than ever, with the new
Democratic Good Government League in
the field and the major portion Of the
State in an unrest for reform.
SAY CLASH MUST COME
Those who know the senator wetl de
clare he would not brook an enforced
alliance with Governor Sanders. The
clash, they say, must come. While opin-
ions, of course, vary as to which would
have the better in political warfare,
some of tie shrewdest politicians in the
city say they would expect to see Sem
ator Foster crushed. Crushed may be
a strong word applied TO Senator Foster,
they admit, and they grant further that
it might have been The height of alb
slirdity at once time to apply ii to Sen
ator Foster
But times have changed Old timers
will tell YOU how old women in the
country almost fell on Senator Fosters
neck and cried. and called him Murphy
when he was in the anti-lotterv cam
paign. Bit that has passed.
Senator Foster, political wiseacres say,
except in a great crisis like the anti
lottery fight, could never get close to the
people They say that is why Governor
Sanders could now overwhelm the Sen
