Made Up His Mind.
Judge Chas. H. Laney, of Pensa-
cola, has finally made UP his mind
and has formally announced mis- can
didacy for congress from the third

Laney is original, and his Letter of
aanouncesent is a marked variation
from the usual stilted and platitudi-
nous literature Of that character. He
will be a force to be reckoned with
In the campaign, for he is a capital
talker and is very much in earnest in
his purpose to go to congress.-Liye
