Devils Lake, N. D., June 6.--The an
nouncement of Andrew Stade Of this city
as a candidate for the state senate mas
created no small amount OF speculation as
to the result. in the coming republican
county convention. A little more than
week ago Stade, who for some time prior
had been considered an avowed candidate
against the present incumbent, Senator
Henry Hale, unexpectedly authorized the
withdrawal Of his name, which leIt Hate
a clear field to succeed himself. Stade
announcement to enter the race, however,
has complicated matters considerably, ana
the outcome cannot be predicted Senator
Hale has the united support of Senator
Hansbrough's political friends, and has
made an excellent record while represent
ing Ramsey county.
Big Crop Of Candidates
AS several of the present county officers
are not candidates for reelection, by force
