SENATOR FOSTER
Where Does He Stand? viii He Be
Neutral or Takes Sides in Campaign?

St. Landry commoner The personal
friends and former political adherents
of Senator Murphy J. Foster are at sea
with reference to the attitude he will as
sumo towards Governor Sanders and his
administration of the State government,
in the approaching senatorial campaign.
No doubt seems to be entertained but
that Senator Foster and Governor San
ders will be candidates for the United
States Senate 1t seems to be equally
certain that Governor Sanders will sup
port Senator Foster. Indeed, he could
not do otherwise consistently with honor
and the plainest dictates of gratitude
Will Senator Foster, in return for San
ders' allegiance to him, give his support
to the latter, or will he strive to main
tain neutral position on the ground
that the United States senatorship is a
Federal office and disconnected from
State politics? We believe that nett
tra1ity under the circumstances is ar
impossibility. We will say further that
we believe the future of Senator. Eos
ter's political career depends largely
upon the wise solution of this question
by him. We are unable to see how any
public man in the State can support
Governor Sanders for election to the
United States Senate, and at the same
time either repudiate his administration
of the State government or maintain
silence on that subject. Regarding San
ders' election to the United States Sen
ate as altogether improbable, we believe
that Senator Foster would go down in
defeat with him, if both come before the
people as candidates for that Office as
running mates and yoke-fellows
