SECOND CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT.


It appeared until recently as if Judge ". T.
Houston, the regular Democratic candidate
for the Second Congressional District, wauld
be without competitor for the seat at present
occupied by E. John Ellis and would naturally
be elected without opposition.
No rival in his own party, such as Carleton
Hunt found in the First District, turned up,
and the Herwig candidature which was mt first
set up by the Republicans found 50 little CON
sonance that the candidate himself d clined
the nomination.
The Republican vote in the Second District
is, however, so strong and the inclination
towards the Republican parity in general in
this years national canvass showing such IN
important increase among electors hitherto
Democratic, the Republicans OF the Second
District would have been guilty Of gross neg
ligence if they had let pass over unused the
present favorable chance to conquer one more
scat in Congress.
They have, however, not done so, but have
put up u opp, sitlon to Judge W. L. Houston,
the Democratic candidate, a nomination which
will make the contest for the election an earn
est one. Judge Michael Hahn of the Twenty
Sixth Judicial District, comprising the parishes
of Jefferson, st. Charles and St ohm Baptist,
which belong to the Congressional District,
has, after long hesitation. declared himself
ready to accept the Republican, candidatu e.
Judge Michael Hahn is, and has been for
decades OF years. no stranger to our German
| fellow-ctizens, and there will be cast in his
| favor the votes of hundreds hitherto Demo.
