OREGON'S POLITICS ARE
COOLING DOWN SOME
Assemblies Cannot Ignore Officials Who Won Nominations
Before the People, Supreme Court May Be Taken Out of
Politics Oregon congressman May Get Another Term by
Default Marion County After President of the Senate.

publican who had eyes on seat on
the high court of appeals has got no
encouragement to try for place as
against either of the two Democrats.
Assemblies May Divide.
The assemblies to make county
ticket and state ticket will be con-
fronted with the problem of officials
who are serving acceptably on their
first terms, and by general consent
will be renominated. Such men were
nominated by the Direct Primary, and
will feel like going before the peo-
pie on a petition in advance of the
Assembly, and then it will be up to
the assembly to recognize their right
and the law, or put up new men
against them. But it is assumed that
the assembly will not be hunting
trouble, and will quietly renominate
effici ent candidates who have served
the people acceptably. On this, plan
the ticket of the assembly will con-
tain the names of the following Re-
publicans:
Places to Be Filled.
The places to be filled are as fol-
lows, and here it is likely the state
assembly will begins its work:
Governor
State superintendent of schools.
Railroad commissioner.
State labor commissioner.

There is a quieter tone in the po-
litical situation, and a disposition to
accept the inevitable and support Re
publican candidates in spite of the
division within the party over the Di-
rect Primary law. The radical ut
frances of the Portland faction that
declares war to the knife on all Re-
publicans who have been Statement
men in the past are discounted by
the fact that there is not United
States senator to elect next legisla-
tive session, and Republicans cannot
see why they should not support
candidates who have nothing to do
with that matter, regardless of tn cir
views on the statement The hold
over senator's chosen this year will be
up against that issue, but the rest of
the ticket has no occasion to be torn
to pieces over the Statement.
The Supreme Court.
The big battle among the giants
will be over getting men on the SUI
preme bench, and the peculiar situa-
tion when two Republicans of al
most invincible popularity and two
Democrats of unusual ability are go
ing out and will be up for reelection.
1t is a well-known fact that many of
the leading men of the state of all
parties have written to the members
of the present court expressing the
hope that they will be returned to
their present positions, and this in
formation comes to The Capital Jour
nal, not from the court, but from the
writer's of the letters. 1t would
seem to be favorable time take the
court bodily out of politics, and set
an example to the politicians that
they would forever have to respect.
It is well known that at least one Re-

land is in his district he is perfectly
safe, as there will always be multi
plicity of candidates. But in the
Eastern Oregon district alone, with
Portland out of it, some bright cam
paigner would take the district to-
day.
Congressman Hawley is considered
ripe for the slaughter, and yet nofone
seems to be making distinct headway
against him. He has practically put
all postoffice appointments on the
sh elf until after the November cleo
ton. His success in getting ths Ore
gon City locks appropriation through
the house will affect the situation
some. But strong insurgenr canIi-
date would sweep this district, as the
people do not consider that they have
tariff revision such as was pron-
ised them.
The Circuit Judges.
For circuit judges the names use
among the political gossips are those
of Geo. H. Burnett to s1ccee3 hin-
self, Percy Kelly and Chas f., Nc
Nary to succ eed Hon. VIM. Galloway.
It is not so easy as rolling OH lrg
for anybody to succeed the Hon. Bill
Galloway, and the big political sal
mon and the salmon trout do not
readily rise to the flies that are cast
for his position.
For the Marion county ticket there
will be struggles for but three posi-
tions-the clerkship, county recorder
and county commissioner. There is
a general disposition to go direct be-
fore the people for these nominations.
The Marion county legislative
ticket involves no politics this year to
amount to anything, and the fight
will be to get good leVel-headed busi-
ness men to take the places.
President Of Senate.
Strong pressure will be brought to
bear on Hon. Thos. Kayto make the
race for the senate, and at the same
time become a candidate for presi-
dent of the senate. He has a record
as a watchdog of the treasury that
would make it very interesting for
the average logrolling general ass
bly, to get ahead Of him, If he had the
organization of one branch of the
legislature solidly behind him. For
the other senatorship the names OF
Hal d. Patton and John A. Carson,
of Salem, have been mention ed, but
It is not admitted by their friends
that either of them is seeking the
place.
