that the early presentation of the Wat

activity in favor of Null. OF course.
1T is not the usual thing for one county
to get away with two candidates. The
Watson talk appears to be intended 10
head off the MBull fellows and to clear
the way for Watson possibilities.
The Null talk is based on pretty good
political grounds. Tom Null IS a
brother of Lon Null. a Rush county
Democrat, VINO ran against Kuhn ana
Gray in 1910 for the Congressional
nomination that finally went to Gray.
Lon Null was the Tagart candidate.
Kuhn was the anti-Taggart fighter.
Between the two they nominated Finley
Gray. much to the chagrin of the Tag
CART crowd.
Sixth district Republicans have been
figuring recently that with Gray re-
nominated on the Democratic side ii
would be a pretty good plan in a po-
litical way to nominate Tom Null to
lake the race on the Republican side
against Gray. They feel that Lon Null
would not be likely to be so active
against his own brother al he might be
against some other Republican. and
they believe Tom Null would be able 10
defeat Gray easily.
