PREPARING FOR THE CAMPAIGN.

Quay Believes the Republicans Can Hold
Their Own In tho NeHt Congress.
WASHINGTON, June 2.-The Republican Con-
gressional Campaign Committee will meet to-
morrow night and map out plan OF work for
the fall campaign In the Congress districts.
The first work to be done IL the election Of a
Secretary, the place 30 long and ably filled by
Mr.. Edward Mcpherson. Clerk OF the House OF
Representatives. Mr. Mopherson will not ac-
cept the Secretaryship this year, az he
thinks 1t would be incompatible with his
duties as Clerk OF the House to be so intimate
ly connected with the campaign in the Con-
gross districts 1t is altogether probable that
his successor will be Mr. Schuyler S. Odds OF
Michigan, who is private secretary to Senator
Stockbridge. MIR. Odds has had considerable
experience in campaign committees. having
been for several years Secretary and member
OF the state Central Committee Of Michigan.
lie ia regarded as clever politician.
One ofthe things determined upon at the din
ner party given by Senator Quay on Friday
night to the Executive Committee OF the Repub-
lican National Committee was that tho close
relationship established between that orRani-
cation and tho Congressional Committee two
years ago should be maintained this year. Mr..
Quay. it is said is 80 hopeful Of his ability TO
influence the results In Congress districts. that
ne Expressed 10 NIB COuoARneS NIB polol lHHt
with proper care and attention the present
majority in the House can DO maintained or
increased.
Some complaints were made by other NOM
bers of the committee that many Of the candi-
dates for Congress-. alter receiving money from
the national organization. relied upon II sto-
gethtr to conduct their canvass and refused to
do anything in their own behalf; Several cases
Of this kind were cited. and M. Quay made
known his determination TO tell tho candidates
In the doubtful districts this year that while he
is willing TO help them. they must do their own
share OF the work. or he will withd raw his cup
port and give it to more appreciauvo candi-
dates.
The Congressional committee will open
headquarters at once. and continue during the
entire summer the work of getting all the
doubtful districts into shane. Chairman Quay
thinks 1t Is very foolish for Republican Con-
gressmen to be saying. us they repeatetly
have done. that the Democrats will undoubt-
edly elect majority OF the next HDuse He
says they should not say this. even II they be-
lieve it, and there is no telling what the result
may be II everybody works as though defeat
we're impossible. He is very hopeful that the
party can be kept in supremacy. at least until
Federal election law is enacted. when he
thinks the Democrats will have no hope OF sue
cess for several years TO come.
