Judge Falcs Confident.
Judge Fales , of Pouca , chairman of
: ho republican congressional centra ]
committee , was in Fremont today con
sulting with leaders of the party. The
judge has been active in organizing the
district iu behalf of McCarthy and says
there is a good organization every wheio
and that he expects to see good results
from it.
The campaign headquarters are al
Norfolk , from whence the committee
keeps in touch with workers through
out the district. A great deal of cor
respondence is had with towushii
committeerneii and voters generally.
The judge says he has yet to learn of a
republican who is not in line for the
party. Ho hears of no defection fron
the ranks. On the other hand ho gets
many letters iuwhich numerous instances
are cited of former f usionists who wil
this year support McCarthy. Many of
these last year voted the other way ,
when the republicans carried this dis
trict by a majority of 1,1)00. )
As the campaign draws to a close
public meetings are being held in largo
numbers , especially in the interests o
Mr. McCarthy. Chairman Fales is sanguine
guino of the success of his candidate
though he fully realizes the diiliculties
of the fight and the importance of leav
ing nothing undone to promote the gooc
cause. Fremont Tribune.
