What I was about to remark is this: The election for senator comes up agin in September and I want this paper to pull for me.

Bein' as it's a daily it's got more power than all of Kleppish's weeklies put together, and if you work the campaign proper I'll win the nomination hands down.

So what I want is the nomination.
