FEATURE OF CAMPAIGN
In the Big seventh District HasBee
Hard Work

Writing from Medicine Lodge. Mr.. r.
II. Faxon says:
one feature Of this campaign has been
the hard contest for members OF the
legislature. The Seventh district has 25
members OF the Kansas house 81 repre-
scntauves. and seven members OF the
state senate. When you consider that
there are only rs members ~ the house
and 20 Of the senate. the Seventies pro-
portion Of these members. and its leg
islative Importance. Is al once apparent.
When Democrats some time since IN
the campaign abandoned state and con
gressionai tickets and made q strenuous
effort 10 control legislative districts taht
Senator Harris be returned NEXT winter
they especially picked out the Seventh.
where not only were there many mem
bers, but close districts Senator Harris
himself. returning TO the state for four
weeks Of campaign. devoted more than
two weeks Of it TO the Seventh. Sen
ator Harris - a clean. upright. able
gentleman. and has standing and char
acter. He IS good speaker. As a sen
ator he Is entitled 10 consideration. yet
so disappointing was his reception IN the
district. 80 barren Of results that she
senator left II finally. discouraged ard
lacking hope. The sequence viii be the
election Of a or more Republicans Of
the 3 representative nominees. The inn
portance OF electlng Republican repre-
sentatives IN this district s. well recoE-
nized. No candidate for United States
senator from this district can hope 70
make great progress without having the
district practically behind him. So ar
on legislative tickets has been made
an dthe result viii be as above.
So far as the candidacy Of Long Tor
the senate Is concerned. The district r.
