tions yesterday forenoon. Hon. Robert W..

ment for them. He will speak for an hour
and half. after which adjournment will

use of money in behalf of the contestants.
They will charge that workers for the
contestants have been rewarded for their
services by the gift Of Offices AS to the
charge Of their opponents that Repuoll-
cans were voted for the contestees. 1t Will
be shown that with Republican nominees

Republican leaders. who desired them to
vote for Hoge. The entire local political
quarrel will be aired in the discussion.

sion of the Norfolk Democracy, Captain
