 As the Gazette has endorsed every action of MT. McRac in congress since his first entrance into that body it cannot too earncstly " urge his reelection. We do not pretend to say that there are not other men in the district who are as able and as worthy to represent the people in congress, we do not believe that there is a man who would better the views of the whole peo- pie. and having been in congress just long enough to become useful, we are opposed to exchanging him for some one else. It is democratic usage in selecting candida ates to choose men who can be easiest cleo ted. provided they are sound on all the party doctrines. This is right and sensible, and taking this stand point no one who Is acquainted with the sentiments of the people will de- ny the fact that Tom McRae can carry the biggest vote of any demo- crat in the Third district. His nom ination is almost certain and nomi- nation with him is equivalent to elec- tion, Hope Gazette.
 In calling attention To this an nouncment it is only necessary to call attention to the labors, record, untiring devotion to duty, as Tom McRae sees duty, in the interest of his constituency. He is an indomi- table worker and Is regarded so in congress today. He has taken high
 rank in that body and deservedly so too. He is now in a condition by req
 son of experience as a congressman to do our people the most good. He
 has made an exceptional representa- tive and will do so again. Our idea
 has always been to get a good man Tn congress and keep him there and
 Tom MoRae is just that sort of a
 man and tive.-Camdcn
