Julius E. soass In the Race Tor Congress.

Hon. j. +. Boggs, of Pickens, So
hcitor of the Tenth Circuit, who was
N the CITY to-day, made the positive
announcement that he would be y
candidate for Congress this year
from the Third District.
1t has been rumored for some time
that Mr.. Boggs would be candidate,
but not until to-day wonld he consent
to make formal announcement.
"Yes," he said to representative
of the Mail, "you may say that am
in the race and will be in it until the
finish. am a candidate for Con
gress."
When asked as to his platform,
MIR. Boggs said he would make that
out later OF, about the time the cam
paign opens up.
MIR. Boggs declined To say any
thing about Congressman Aiken, nor
had he the slig htest intimation of
any criticism to make against him.
"Mr. Aiken and l have always been
the best of friends," he said, "but
that won't keep me from running for
Congress if l want to do so. The
suggestion has been made that Mr..
Aiken might run for Governor. |
would be mighty glad if he would do
80, but whether he runs for Governor
or is candidate for reelection to
Congress-, am candidate for Con-
gress myself, and am going to try
to beat him. My campaign will be a
clean one, but it is going to be live
one, and it is going to be up to the
voters of the Third District to say
whom they want to represent them
in Congress from now on"
Mr.. Boggs is known all over the
district. lie is a splendid stump
speaker, and good campaigner on
the Misunderstanding, mixing with the
boys plan. He will keep the cam
paign full of interest from start to
finish.
Nothing has been heard here as to
Congressman Aiken's plans, but the
presumption is that he would like to
hold on to his seat in Congress for a
while. Mr.. Aiken is one of the most
popular men in the State, and his
record in Congress has been good.
He has a wonderfully strong hold
upon the people, and Solicitor Boggs
will have the fight of his life on his
hands.
Congressman Aiken and Solicitor
Boggs have many friends in common,
and there will be many voters in the
district who will find it hard mat
ter to decide between two personal
friends. This, though, will tend to
keep the campaign on high plane.
Politics in the Third District this
summer will be full enough of in
terest, but there is no reason to fear
that there will be anything but clean
campaigning and good nature
throughout.
