of that veteran Republican.

congratulated upon the splendid vote
given Mr. Grow in his section. Mr.
Watres, ao the article statea, waa ono
of the most enthusiastic champions of
Mr. Grow s nomination for congress
man-at-large, although there were
somo friends who thought this nom
iua'.ion migbt in some way in
terfere with Mr. Watrea' political
ahincea for tbe future, both bailing
from tha same section of the state.
There ia talk of Mr. Watres being
urged to beoome a candidate for tbo
