vestigation from all parts OF the
district, there is no doubt that Hon.
| c. A, Fuller is far in the lead of his
nearest opponent, and that he will
be nominated.
1t is a case of the entire field
against Fuller, and he is first or sec
ond in every locality. All of his op.
ponents, knowing this, center their
attacks on him, but are unable 10
weaken his following, They resort
to that old political trick of saying
Fuller is losing ground, but are un'
able to show where he loses a vote.
On the other hand, he has scores Of
influential, loyal and true friends,
whom cease to advance his cause,
HIS friends are, as he says, bound to
him by hooks Of steel,
No man ever had a more united
or enthusiastic support from those
who know him best, than Mr., Fuller,
and he deserves it, Some men run
better when not known so well; not
true with him To really know him,
his ability, loyalty to friends and
duty, and his true manhood meaus
real live Fuller supporter,
No one Of any Information doubts
he will carry Benton and Madison
counties. We know he will carry
Carroll county by an overwhelming
majority, and predict he will carry
Newton and Boone by bigpluralitics
and at least break even in Baxter
and Van Buren, both OF which his
friends loudly claim,
He will get 30 per cent of
Bratton's loss in Searcy, rs per cent
of lludsou's loss in Marion, and run

county All over the district we
hear Of odds being offered on Fuller
against the field, and no takers
found. The last grand and petit

tically all for Fuller, as was the
Madison county jury as shown by q
poll Threelourths Of the Jurors in
the Eastern district of this county
were for him,
The editor of the North Arkansas
Star is his personal enemy and his
opponents have copied in other
papers articles he writes, as they do
from the Mt, Air, the editor of which
Mr. Fuller convicted of slonder,
Practically all the influential Dem.
oerats, lawyers, and county officers
Of this judicial district are for Fuller
From the Harrison Times we clip
the following
"ln Boone county he numbers
among his supporters, many of the
political leaders Of our county and
because Of his extensive acquaintance
and his knowledge in farming and
stock raising his ability as a
eampaigner, and from what we
hear from all parts of the county,
we think there is little doubt but
what Boone county will be carried
by Fuller with ease in the
March primary,
From what we can learn he will
carry Carroll, Madison and Benton
counties; we are IN close touch with
Newton, Searey and Marion, our
neighboring counties, and we are
confident from all reports that he
will curry Newton, run second 90
Brotton In Scorcy and second TO
Hudson In Marion,
IL il the writer's humble opinion
that when the results of the coming
primary election are announced that
Hon Claude A Fuller will he found
leading his five oponients by u

the primary practically settles the
