HON. OLlN WELLBORN. til
A denomination by reclamation yes sc
terday at Alvarado of the Hon. OLIN it
WELLBoRN for Congress, was the proper Il
and graceful thing for this district to do. tC
After five years Of service b
only in the National House ci
Of Representatives, Cor. WELL il
born stands up among the prominent II
and influential men of that body. 1t is b.
not often a man, whatever his ability 81
wins in such stormy body in 50 short a II
time, such a conspicuous position. fl
Two years ago through the natural
and commendable ambition of one of a
our most talented citizens, Mr.. WELL Il
BORN had hard struggle to retain his k
seat, but the expression of the district /,
was finally so pronounced i'm his favor n
that his neutrality-suspicious. have long 81
since ceased their contest with him h
and he stands now after another c
term Of service more enthusiasts n
tically endorsed by all classes and in
terests in all portions Of the district
than ever before in his short political
career, Fair dealing, impartiality, cour- T
tesy and fidelity to duty on his part
have not only disarmed opposition, but
won for him the admiration and regard
of all. Il
Two elements chiefly have consp'
to this enviable success. He has. h.
faithful to his constituents, an. he EN-
been untiring in his attention +, has
