FRANK NELSON IN
UNICAMERAL RACE
O'Neill Farmer 2d
in State to File for
Solon Post

Frank Nelson, well-known O'Neill farmer and an unsuccessful candidate in the 1946 primary election, last week filed with the secretary of state at Lincoln his candidacy for nomination for state senator in the 28th legislative district. John L. Copeland, of Mariaville, is the incumbent.

The 28th district embraces Holt, Boyd, Rock and Keya Paha counties and the post is non-political.

Mr. Nelson finished third in the four-way unicameral race in 1946, trailing Mr. Copeland and E. H. Chace, of Atkinson.

The next primary election will be held April 13, 1948—almost two months earlier than in 1946.

Mr. Nelson, who has been a Holt county resident for more than 40 years, is the second candidate in Nebraska to file for a state senate post. An Omahan filed earlier.
