Mr. Lever's Candidacies.
Some one has remarked that it is
believed Mr. Lever will have opposition
for his seat in Congress at the )
next election and that it may influence
his course in relation to his proposed
candicacy for the United States
Senate. We do not believe that any
supposed opposition will make him
enter the senatorial race against his
will, and if he should go up against
Mr. Latimer it will be simply because
ae will believe in his power to win.
Let us say to those who seem anxious
0 force Mr. Lever in the senatorial
race that they are "waking up the
wrong passenger," and if they want
their political carcasses to remain intact
for awhile yet they had better
Let him alone and not "monkey with
the buzz saw." He is not a political
toward to be scared out of his present
position by any one; and those in this
2ongressional district who think they
2an beat Mr. Lever for congress had
better think twice before they act
mce if they don't want political hash
made of themselves. Mr. Lever has
1 cinch on his present job and if those
with the political itch think they can
iefeat the hustling and lighting little
songressman from the Seventh District
they have our permission to seek
i cure for that disease. Lever is the
man to give them th e medicine?a
