Governor Nat E. Harris will be
candidate to succeed himself in the
next state election.
Sunday certain friends of the gov

state a forecast statement which will
be in the nature of a fOrerunner of an
address to the people to be issued by
the governor at later date.
This fact was established Wednes-
day when a member of the commit
tee which will prepare the statement,
and who has been politically quite
close to the governor for years, admit
ted that the definite conclusion has
been reached that Governor Harris is
to make the race.
Just when the announcement from
the governor will be issued is not
known. When asked about the mat

somebody will make a statement for

great deal of light on the situation.

1t is known to be act. though,
that several delegations nave called
on him recently and urge ! him to an
nounce his intentions right away, and
expressed to him the h pc that he
would elect to make the race himself.
In addition to this it is known that
there have been large number of
letters sent to him in the Last ten days
or two weeks, urging him to make the
race, announce his candle acy at once,
and relieve the situation, inasmuch as
there are several other prospective

rection depend entirely on whether or
not Gov Harris is going to run.

the rooms. An elaborate dinner was
served in five courses at Z o'clock by
Mrs. Moore, assisted by Mrs Nellie
lamar, Mrs Ruth Buck, and Miss Jo-
sephine Gabelman.
After the dinner, and until late in the
evening, the men enjoyed a smoker,
during which each guest had ample OPP
