LEWIS COUNTY
IS SATISFIED
with the Nomination of Thorn and viii
Give Him Heartiest Support, Says
Weston independent.

The nomination Of Arthur X. Thorn
for the state senate is received in Lewis
county with satisfaction The Weston
Independent in speaking Of the nom
ination says:
eThere appears to be no question that
Mr.. Thorn's nomination was regularly
made and we do not believe tirslt sena-
tor Harmer will contest the fact. 1t is
most lame1rtabIe that this dispute
should arise, and we see no sufficient
reason for it. The writer at the start
rather leaned to Harmer, but was not
favorable to any attempt to discredit
the solid Thorn delegation IN Harrison
county, believing that, inasmueh as tho
other counties conceded to Harrison the
nominee. they could not reasonably re-
fuse to concede to 1t the right % say
who he should be. In this view OF the
case we clieerfulIy accept the result and
believe the Republicans Of the cea-.sy
will approve the nomination"
