CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATES.

-
Ord Journal: A. E. Cady Of st. Paul has
announced himself as a candidate for con-
gress. 1t will be a warm scrap for the
republican nomination.
Imperial Republican: While It is argued
that Hon. @. w. Norris already holds the
responsible position of district Judge. yet
ne Is the only candidate this part Of the
district has for congressman. II the nom
nation should come to this part Of the
district. give us Norris. The east part OF
the district has able candidates In Captain
Adams, W. P. McCreary and others.
o'Neill Frontier: The Frontier stated last
week that Hon. w. W. Wood of Rushville
was mentioned in connection with the re-
publican nomination for congress. We are
reliably informed that ne is in no sense
a candidate for the honor. The fact is. the
north end Of the district is practically solid
Tor Hon. NJ. F. Kinkaid OF this city, the man
who above all others is capable of redeem
ing in the big Sixth.
McCook Republican: The f1attering en-
dorsements from all over the district that
Hon. G. w. Norris of this city is receiving
as a possible candidate on the republican
ticket for congress is most gratifying to
his many friends. Judge Norris is a strong
man and would undoubtedly poll the full
vote of his party, as we'll as draw largely
from the opposition. Here, at his home, he
is one Of the most popular men in politics.
He will probably get the solid support Of
the county in the convention, Judging from
the general opinion of the people at present.
Rushville Recorder: M. p. Kinkald, re-
publican candidate for the Sixth congress
slonai district, Of O'Neill, was In town last
evening, shaking hands with his many
friends. He favored this Office with a
friendly call, and in the course of his con-
versation referred to his prospects, not only
OF getting the nomination, but Of eventually
carrying the district. This is based on his
previous campaign, in which 1t was said IL
he carried the judicial district by 500 he
would carry everything. He carried the
judicial by 800 and only had 211 between
him and his opponent.
Kearney Hub: A special telegram from
st. Paul states that A. E. Cady has lust
authorized the announcement OF his candi-
dacy for the republican nomination for
congress In the Sixth district, with the ad-
dltional statement that he will have the
enthusiastic support of his home delega-
tion as we'll as those from a number of
neighboring counties" As the list now
stands we have Beeman and GoodelI OF
Buffalo, Grimes of Lincoln, Currie OF Gus
ter, Cady of Howard and Kinkaid of Holt.
1t is a formidable list Of strong men from
which the convention cannot fail to select
a winner.
st. Paul Republican: Howard county re-
p~ublicans will take peculiar pleasure In
presenting the name Of Hon. A. E. Cady of
st. Paul to the Sixth district congressional
convention for the nomination which Il
soon must make. This action has Just been
| nMth0riZad nv Mr. Cndu uyhn fn ,Ar,HIl-.
with urgent requests from all quarters of
the district, has had the matter under con-
sideration for several months. In present.
ing his candidacy local republicans will feel
a pardonable pride on account of the gall
liant race he made in the dark year OF
1896, when the free silver mania swept Me-
braska and the entire west into the demo-
cratic column.
Lynch Journal: We do not live in the
Third congressional district, but 1t would be
a pleasure to go down there this fall and
help elect w. w. Young Of Stanton to con-
gress. We have known Mr.. Young ever
since he located in Stanton, at which time
we were whiting desks in the second pri-
mary department. For years we have be-
lieved that Mr.. Young ought to be in con-
gress and one day would be sent there by
the Third district. And mark the predic-

from, not only back home In Nebraska, but
the country all over as one OF the members
Of real worth that has convictions ON all
subjects and is ready to support them.
Clay Center Sun; II there is a man in
the district held In higher esteem by both
friend and foe politically than Hon. s. w.
Christy We have not made his acquaintance.
All know that In congress he would rep
resent the entire people. His honesty is
a byword among all who know him, and
but few have a more extended acquaintance
in the state than he. His ability is I'M
questioned. His good judgment in public
affairs and in his profession is universally
recognized. The opposition would have
reason to fear his nomination, and II 10
generally a pretty good thing to do what
your political opponents most earnestly de-
sire you should not do.
Grand Island Independent: The repubH-
can candidates for the congressional nom-
nation in the Sixth district are a strong
family. There are among the men men
toned three OF four very able. very accep-
table men and the republicans Of the district
have reason to congratulate themselves.
One OF the best among them, one who would
not only look well. intelligently and con-
scientiously to the interests Of his district
In the halls OF the house. but who would
also reflect credit end serve well the inter-
ests Of the entire state, is Hon. A. z. Cssy
Of st. Paul. Directly the people OF the
Fifth district are not interested In the
outcome. But indirectly they are largely
interested and his nomination would GER
tainly be pleasing Il many over the state
who have had the opportunity TO know Mr..
Csdy personally and appreciate his sterling
character and worth.
