some u Judge Clark's fsisnds 70 hold
Madiaon responsible for the actions Of
hisfsllew-towpvman, Better they would
gst out and whoop things up for
Madison thereby wsaksnias tho oandiLacy
Of Fitzgerald. On the other hand, II
oppositon to Madison comes from Clark's
supporters, wouldn't Il be . good gsess
to say that Madison's friends might re-
tsilats, and II thsJ did Judge Clsrk
seuid bs injured through ths political
short-sightsdnsss ofa few over. aealonS
supporters. Il can bs said to their credit,
however, that Judge Clark's closest
friends and most powerful supporters
are endsavorIng to discourage even the
thought Of any such movement.
The politlc thing for Clark importers
to do 10 to "give the glad hand" to
Madison,
The Great Bend Register says: The
lines are now pretty clearly drawn IN the
congressional contest IL this the Seventh
district. The republican nominating
convention has been called for the 10Th OF
Mareh--but a little over . month off
There are but two candidates for the
nomination at the present time and all
indications are that there will be no more
when convention day arrives. Both
gentlemen who aspire 10 this honorable
and responsible position are men OF
unquestionsd integrity and men OF
ability. In every contest Of this nature
nearly everyone has choice. We are
for Judge Ed. H. Madison for congress
for several reasons. He 10 q man who
has grown up with us here In this
district and is perhaps as we'll acquainted
with every need and interest OF the
people OF this district as any man w
could suggest. He is man OF much
ability and will nos let that ability rust In
the halls Of congress. He has had an
ambition to 20 to congress aud this
opportunity presenting itself At this time
he has made Y thorough CANVASS OF the
district dating back many months, and is
now candidate, 40 we nee It, on his own
merits independent Of the candidacy Of
anyone else for any Office and Is RESPONSE
HE only for bis own ambitions and polIi-
cal aspirations. He'll young man and u
he il made Of the stuff we think he 10, he
II good man 10 send to congress aud
keep .there--thst 10 what tells for
district. Barton county people are we'll
acquainted with Judge Madison. He
aas been with ds asa son Of veteran
orator, a. higd school commencement
orator, and 10 social way w believe
our psopis want him to 20 to congress-"

District Republican Convention has
been called to meet at Hutchinson
March 10Th. There are 90 far - We
know two csadidates for this nomination
Judge e Il. Madison Of Dodge City and
Judge W. K. Hutchinson OF Garden Oily.
Our preference 10 Judge Madison. He
|. young. clean, able, energetic AID
ambitious He has dsservedly won the
reputation Of being one Of the best judges
)f law in the state. Most OF his life hAs
been spent 10 the seventh district and the
wants Of the people are familiar to him.
HIS best energies will be used to
ldvancs the Interest Of his dlstrict 10
very Legitimate way aud We believe no
mistake will be made 10 his select lon y
In looking after his candidacy for the
for congress from this dis
rict at the hands Of the Rspub loan

lay. He says that as bis term as judge
xpires next January, be does not come
within the constitutional inhibition In
,pirlng to 60 to congress, and that II
ominated be will resign his judgeship
efore entering upon an active campaign,
0 be will not bs amenable to the election
avs. Judge Madison Is genial mixer,
n educated gentleman and lawyer
those standing is very high with those
rho know him best. He will probably
ct the nomination without an effort II
