and soft as down. Our Infants depart

days ago. and as a result Colonel We'll

nounce himself as a candidate.
Several of the Fifth district counties,
in which Tama is situated, have already
indorsed the candidacy of N. S. Ketchum
who has heretofore been the only candi-
date from that district, and the situation
is likely to prove complicated. w. w.
