begun the work started by Capt,

Who WILL 1T BE?

This is the question that is now

the politicians Of the Eleventh

we asked Mr.. Morrow Just after
the'NOyemher election. Just after
he had made such a noble cam
paipn for the Office of Governor.
if he would make the race for
Congress, and he replied that he
had not given it any thought.
We have also talked the matter
over with various other men who
would make good Representatives
in the Lower House of the Ma
tional Congress; uch men as
Don c. Edwards, A. T. Siler
Jackson Morris, VIM. Lewis and
some others that we cannot now
recall. trying totind the man who
could win over Powers, and il

but the question is ALWAYS aSheo
can any man in the district win
over Powers" We are not ad.
vised IS to that, we Ito not wiSf

but????
It is true that all the times
Powers has been in Congress, he
has been hamperci to ! certain
extent, the Democrats do not
like him, in fact they spurn him,
and not until the House of Con-
sress is Republican will he have
a chance 10 do much if anything
for his constituents. Powers i,
a candidate for reelection. anC
will be in the race TO the finish
what is the question now? vii.
we send him back? 1t may be
that he could and wOnld do many
things for the people in the
Eleventh if reelected; maybe
the next Congress will be over
whelmingly Republican. we be-
lieve it will; in that event he
would have a chance to get some
measures through that would re-
dDund to the common good of all.
Very few people think Powers
can be defeated, We believe tina
the man who would undertake
the task will have a fight on
hands, yet, we are not saying
where we are; but we will be
somewhere when the lineup
comes. we are always to he found
on any and all questions, we are
always in the fight and we are
there TO do all we can for our
man, ut the same time, we want
10 do all the good we can for
