persuaded Ex-senator Lucien Baker to head their forces
candidate for Representative to the Legislature this
winter Baker is not for Curtis for Senator. While
Curtis through Congressional and other patronage
undoubtedly CONTROLS the political strikers and peeers Of

tire state that in the event of his election even if
he does not stand for the Senate himself he will prove
an influential factor in the legislative contest But aside
from the possibility of his being the dark horse in the
Senatorial race, the Curtis contingent is up against
stubborn proposition in their efforts to defeat Lucien
Baker before people who in knowing him trust him
and who in honorng him past never had that trust
betrayed
