COOKIES FRIENDS
ARE CONFIDENT

Hon. william b. Cooke. one OF the
prominent candidates for the Demo-

the outlook, Mr.. Cooke modestly sug-
gestcd that when the ballots We're

would be the WHINE 1t Is known from
inside sources that Mr.. Cooke has his
campaign well in hand: that the east
crn end of the district has shown great
taxes. and that Mr.. Cookies people are
IN a position not only to say that they
are FOR him. but to deliver the goods.
Upon the assembling OF the Leglsla-
ture there has been a great deal or
concerning the contest for
Congress in the Fourth Congressional
District. and naturally Democrats from
all sections OF the State are taking
more OR less interest in the iontro-
versy. But from what can be gathered
on the inside. IT looks now as II Mr..
Cooke has the better chance than any
of his competitors. When asked last

replied. They are all friends Of mine.
i am a candidate for Congress on my

It is generally conceded that Mr..
Cooke, having practically the solid
support OF the eastern end of the dis
trict. means thai with the division in
the city or Petersburg and the western
Counties, he has the best chance OF any
man who is in the race.
