Carter, Dan" lIealy and phil"
knopf will not receive his support
or the support of his friends. The
cx.representative lives in the Tenth

Republican candidate for president
of the county board. and also in the
Second Congressional district. which
"Billy' Lorimcr aspircs to represent
in Congress. Mr.. Nohc has his own
following and he declares thlt the
aforementioned gentlemen will get
no help from him, but that, on the
contrary he will do what he can to
assist their Democratic opponents.

To the Editor;
The Republican convention in the
Fourth Congressional District Is soon
to be held: and as our success in the
district, and possibly in the county,
may depend upon its action, | hope
no mistake Will be made.
Foremost in the minds of the peo.
pie of the district IL the name of
Hon. Miles kehoe, who, car y In the
canvass and before the Democratic
situation became complicated. was
practically agreed upon to make the
race.
Every one knows that he Is aggrcs.
sively honest, aud is capable of max.
ing vigorous campaign.
His tariff speeches will listened to
by every workingman, because they
know him to be fearless, honest
champion Of their rights.
For years his services have been
given to the party without reward:
he deserves and should receive rccog.
milton.
The workingmen Of the Fourth and
other districts. whose cause he has
always vigorously upheld, will look
upon his nomination as a recognition
OF their rights, and will rally to h $
and the party's support.
His nomination will also re ute the
Democratic prediction now freely
made that religious prejudice will
control the action OF the coming con.
vention, and that the character Of
the candidate will prove it,
Every citizen knows that he Is u
thorough American and has ever Wig.
orously defended American institu.
tions and principles. l know l but
echo the wish Of a large majority OF
our citizens when ] say, | hope he
will be nominated. Respectfully,
JAMES MoNAmAN.

The Republicans In the Fourth
Congressional District are running
around wildly wondering whom they
will nominate at the convention Sat.
urday. The Twelfth Ward Is all
torn up over the matter, and Alder.
man Campbell and OK. Alderman Mar.
tin are figuring just as though the
whole business had been referred tn
them for settlement. The Twelfth
can name the nominee II Its thirty.
seven delegates can unite. There
are but sixty-fve votes In the convcn.
ton, divided as follows: Eighth
Ward, O.; Ninth, 10: Nineteenth, -:
Twelfth, 81. Frank Grove, OF the
Nineteenth, an able lawyer, is gain.
ing ground, and seems to be the
probable choice OF the convention.
Miles Kehoc and Justice WoCdman,
of the Ninth Ward, are after the
nomination, too. II they split the
Ninth's delegation, Grove will be
sure to win.
Senator Brlce Is hearing from his
constituents. Three county cOnvcn.
tions In Ohio have denounced his
course In the Senate, and his tools,
agents and men-of.all.work In the
East are fastening to Ohio to pre-.
vent similar expressions in the State
convention. That Is very admirable
and wholesome. But II may he sug.
gcsted that Ohio Democrats can be
more prOatably engaged In preparing
to elect men to the Legislature who
won't sell their votes to the next
huckster who wants +, be n Senator.

trict ever had any chance of securing
a Democratic Endorsement of his can
didacy, he has lost it by the attacks
he has made on the Democratic party
in his public speeches. 1t appears
some OF the Populists are not pleased
with Mr.. Whites candidacy, and he
has sought to make himself solid
with them by abusing Democrats
This course prcclud,s the pOssibil.
