bpeclhI 20 inc UHkotte.
GAINESVILLE, TEX, Sept. 2s,-The
nomination of j. L. Fleming of this city
for congress, by the Republican conven-
ton, was somewhat of surprise here.
Fleming is recognized as much the ablest
leader and organizer the party has in the
county, and In the days of Republicanism
he was as absolute boss and dictator as
Malone ever was in Virginia. Since the
Democrats gained the ascendancy in the
county, however, he has eschewed politics
and has lived part Of the time in Gala
han county, where his ranch Is located
1t is learned after the nomination that he
much desired the empty honor, and had
quietly but effec lively worked up his can
vass so there was practically no opposj
ton to him in the convention.
