A BOOST FOR GRANT
For Congress, II Mahonins VIII
Not Get Together All
Hinges on the Word
Harmony.

Mahoning county, not finding much
encouragement in the district, Is COM
PEELED to go over into Trumbull to get
some one to say that her chances for
securing the Republican nomination
for congress in this district are good.
George Predmore. of Warren, dropped
into Youngstown and talked to the
Telegram man as follows:
"If Mahoning county will go into
the Salem convention with solid del
egation from Mahoning county for one
man ne will capture the congressional
nomination. Otherwise the nomina-
ton will go to one OF the other coun-
ties, and most likely to j. J. Grant,
Of Canton"
Thus spoke George Predmore, Of
Warren, formerly deputy internal rev.
enue collector to the Telegram Thurs
day. And that he knew whereof ho
spoke was shown by the minute knowl-
edge of the details of the situation as
he made it plain to his hearers.
II have just come in from a trip
that included the towns of Alliance,
Salem, East Liverpool and Wellsville
and heard great deal Of talk upon
the congressional situation. 1t was
made plain to my mind at least that if
Mahoning county desires to secure the
nomination of any of her favorite sons
she must see that he has solid dele
cation behind him and one that will
stand up and battle for him until the
fin sh. Co unit ma county stands
ready to give Mahoning county fair
opportunity to get the plum. / know
that down the Ohio river valley the
people are strongly disposed to grant
Mahcning chance and to play fair.
The sentiment in Salem is the same
and also, | may say, in Alliance.
I. '1his muehsE Will say for Stark
county: If Mahoning county cannot
go into the convention with a solid
working delegation then Stark will not
he disposed to do anything but ac-
quiesce. But if not, then look out for
j. j. Grant, of Canton l heard no
talk for any other candidate from
Stark county as did for Grant He,
undoubtedly, will have Stark county
solidly behind him. Keep your eye on
Grant.
"All the candidates, or supposed
candidates from Mahoning, are spoken
of very kindly in Columbiana county.
This is especially true of Mr.. Kennedy,
both in the northern and southern
parts of the county. Put one thing is
sure. you must get together and stay
together"

The president was terribly in earn

newspaper men and senators to his
