MR.. SANDO ACCEPTS.
Agrees to Become the Democratic
Candidate for Congress-Speech
Of Acceptance to the Com
mittee of Notification.

Hon. NJ. f. Sando has accepted the
Democratic nomination for congress.
Yesterday afternoon at o'clock he
was waited upon by F. j. Fitzsimmons
and George S. Horn, representing the
county committee, and officially noti-
fled of his selection.
Mr.. FitZsimmons made formal
speech of notification in which he said,
after going over the circumstances
that led up to Mr.. Sando's nomination,
that an acceptance under the condi-
tions would win for the nominee the
support of every Democrat in the
county, and further that the candidacy
of such a man as Mr.. Sando would
draw from the opposition the support
of hundreds who are dissatisfied with
their party. Mr.. Sando replying in
kind said:
Gentlemen of the committee:
Il am not unmindful of the great
honor the committee you so graciously
represent, has done me in unanimous
ly and without solicitation nominating
me for congress. To be chosen by such
representative men as composed your
committee and for such an exalted Of
flee is a distinction accorded to but
few. 1 trust I appreciate it in all it's
details and my earnest hope is that I
may ever prove myself worthy of the
preference rendered me.
Il need only to say that I did not
seek, or anticipate such a distinguished
compliment. Coming to me as it does
without any discord or strife 1 willing
ly accept it, fully realizing what such
an acceptance involves
II return my sincere thanks for the
kind words with which you saw 1T to
notify me and I desire you to convey
to the members of your committee my
keen appreciation of their generous ac-
ton and assure them I will employ
my best endeavor to have their action
ratified at the polls in November"
