In move to unite the two fac lions Of the republican party here, it was reported today that move ment is on foot to elect Richard Covert former senator from this district as republican state central committeeman.
 Since the death Of Judge George w. Klett, Representative Ernest W. Christ has been acting committee man. It was reported that he as sumed the duties in response to q
