their plans" said julius A. Schmal
editor of newspaper at Redwood Falls

or three sessions of the legislature, who
was in st. Paul yesterday, fully so per
cent of the old members will be found
in the, next house of representatives
l am a candidate for reelection as
chief clerk, and naturally have paid
some attention to the prospective occu-
pants of seats in the next legislature
An unusually large percentage of the
old members are candidates for re-elec-
ton, and present indications are that
most of them will win out in the Re-
publican primaries, as the fact that
they have been in public life before will
materially assist them in landing the
nominations"
Schmal's candidacy for reelection as
chief clerk may interfere with the can
didacy of Frank Clague of the same
county for speaker, and vice versa, but
the two men are not fighting.
