MERE strong feeling against Col John Walter Smith

the Ciubernaora nominee he should resign from Con.
gress and permit his successor to be elected the general
election thus saving the First district the expense special
election But doesn't likely that the Colonel will have
this consideration for the people but will look himself
and hold Congress until the Gubernatorial contest is
decided.
He has already caused one special election and now
running the chance of causing another.
His election Congress vacated his seat in the State
Senate to which he elected in 1897 and election is
