Following the announcement that Congressman Charles Brand of Ur­ bane would not seele his sixth term,; same announcements of other candi­ dates in rapid succession, While L, T. Marshall, Xenia, who angled fo r the bait two years ago and was traded off by political associates to clear the track for Brand, has been iabing in the congressional'pool for several months, but he let a promin­ ent banker and manufacturer. in Springfield, Edward E. Greiner, get away with the-first official announce- merit, Which came ras a s u r p r i a e t o politicians in every quarter- Greiner is president of the Lagonda-Citizens Bank and head of the Buffalo' Road Boiler Company, in th a t city. He is a member of the American Legion hbd'had served over- seas. Probate Judge Harry G.

Pemberton machine, and associate of Marshall,' that he Would seek Brand’s place. Rut that is not all for the Herald has reliable information from a close , firiind tha t Senator W,' A, Clark, Ur­ bana, would also enter for congress, deferring- bis official announcement until later in,the month. From “other Sources, that, could not be directly confirmed, comes the re­ port that Dennis Sullivan, Marysville, Union County, is making a survey of the district w ith .« view of entering the congressional race.

They were warried last January, hi Ms. race wjth Judge Gram bu t ainco.then much, wa­ te r has passed over the political dam. Brand owed his last nomination to P- C. Pemberton, former liquor lobby- 1st, Clinton county, and Harry Daugh­ erty. ' Psmbsrton has also been an as­ sociate of Marshall and Deaton, all three working together. Since then two of the counties under Fembreton’s control, one Clinton, has broken away, The Daugherty Machine in Fayette county is wrecked with the boss fighting to keep Cut of the peni­ tentiary owing to the failure- of his bank. The step taken by Brand caused no surprise to those who knew the sit­ uation i the district. Brand has never been popular in Congress or in Wash­ ington with either the Coolidge or Hoover administrations, The coming primary, with numerous candidates fo r congress means plenty fo r the politicians to discuss other than hard times.
