of twenty seven members of the republican
state central committee met here to-day.
Chairman Lewis, who was recently nomi-
mated Is the readjuster candidate for Lieut..
Governor, was declared no longer a member
of the committee, and Gen. Wickham was
elected TO succeed him as chairman. They
decided to hold the convention at Staunton,
Aug. gath. for the nomination of candidates
for state Offices and that none but straight cut
republicans could vote for delegates or be
eligable for election as delegates. The basis
of representation in the convention is one
delegate for every five hundred and fraction
of FIVE hundred republican votes polled for
