The Republicans in this Congress

The Republicans in this Congress
sionsl District are looking over the
timber TO see if they can find q
man TO make the race for Congress.
Three or four men have been spoken
OF any one of whom would represent
the party and represent the District
With honor and ability, but heretofore
the Republican nomination has been
merely an empty honor and none Of
the men mentioned would carr TO
accept The nomination. They do not
hesitate because they would not like
10 go to Congress but because they
have no confidence in the strength of
the party. In this some on2 il going
