He belongs to fam fly known to political honors, being son of the late Lucius s. Fuller, one of the best known politicians of the county, and brother of Hon. Lucius H. Fuller of Put nam. He is 8 young man of ability. and commands the respect, as he would the support, of the voters of the 24th district. Very little is as yet being said as to the
