The Decorah Journal suggests Hon.
w. A. Hoyt as the democratic candi-
date for congress. His career on the
bench and his eminent fitness and su-
perior qualifications would make him
an ideal representative. He is un-
doubtedly much better man for the
office than is wanted and infinitely
better than the people of the district
desire or deserve. Haugen or any
fifth rate man is good enough for the
4th district.
