in the Republican congressional race
of the seventh district. 1t is under
of his lieutenants would pass the word
down the line. he probably could re
ceive the nomination. AS yet howev
er, there is no evidence that the word
has been passed down the line or al
least if it has, the ward workers in
Mr.. Bookwalters own ward know
nothing about it.
! Mr.. BoOkwalter is peculiarly situat
ed. He has many positive enemies
and many positive friends, all because
he has been a very positive man. He
is good fighter in a campaign, but
there is a question as to whether hi:
fighting propensities would not be ov
ercome in a measure by the grea
number of enemies he would run VI
against in the campaign. While
there is much Bookwalter talk, now i
is believed the nomination will go t,
