Santa Fe, ~ M. July 24-The cam
paign for the republican nomination
for congress is beginning to grow
warm and interesting and to look as
if for the first time in recent years
nomination might be made which was
not cut, dried and filed away before
the delegates gather. There is no dis
putting the fact that Delegate An
drews has gained some strength dur
ing the past week. His personal
campaign has had it's effect in one or
two localities and he Is assured of sew
eral delegates which up to ten days
ago were not at all certain. But
whether these gains are sufficient to
overcome the active campaign being
made against him remains to be seen
For instance, Charles A. Speiss has
invaded the north country, with par
ticuar reference to Taos county, is in
that section now, in fact and is said
to have gone in with the fixed inten-
ton of bringing out a delegat tion in
structed for Speiss Whether he will
do this cannot be predicted Hts
friends here, of whom there are a
good many, seem to think that he
will. The Andrews supporters on the
contrary, assert confidently that the
delegate has Taos safely grabbed
and that no amount Of persuading can
get it away from the leaders who
have the matter in hand. 1t is getting
to be a pretty fair scrap in that Sec
ton Of the country and it is not over
as yet The results of the Speiss trip
are being awaited with lively interest
1t is now admitted that he will come
to the convention with San Miguel
Colfax. Moro. and possibly Union.
while his friends claim he will have
Quay county. Judge Mann's friends
assert the judge has Quay county in
his pocket and the delegate when
asked quietly about II, winks the
other eye and says it is all his. IF
there is anyone over here wk0 lssews
positively to whom Quay county be-
longs, he Is keepink still about it,
Private dispatches received here in
dcate that Mr.. Andrews is not getting
very enthusiastic receptions along the
Southwestern However, this is a trip
on which he Is not seeking publicity,
but delegates and the lack of en-
thusiasm is not surprising The next
few days are expected to bring inn
