Major Joseph A. Engeihard for Sec
refary of state

EDITORS OBSERVER: I am glad to
observe in recent issue of the OBJ
server the suggestion that Major En- .
gelhard deserves some substantial con
sideration at the hands of the Demo
cratic party of the State. This is we'll
known all over the State, and it will
be pleasure to his many friends if
the party will nominate him for Secre-
tary of State. Of his entire fitness for
the position it is unnecessary to speak.
have good reasons for knowing that
he will accept the nomination, and
think it would be but a meagre return
for the great services he has always
most cheerfully rendered his party and
State, at all times, and without re-
ward. The press of the State will
support Major e. enthusiastically, and
l am sure the party will sustain him,
if nominated, to triumphant election.
Let Engelhard be our choice for Sec
rotary Of State. Respectfully,
Rowan
