Nomination of Hon. John Paul by the
Coalitionists.

Reported for the Staunton VINDIcATOK.l
uARRIsONBURG, Aug. Is.
The 7th District Coalition Convention
met here to-day at noon to nominate the
Hon. John Paul. Coming into the Court
House found all the counties represent
cd by delegations of whites and blacks
The large representation of Office holders
of the Federal and State governments
among the delegates, produced the unfa-
vorable impression that tho Convention
was not SO much a representation Of the
people as gathering Of those who live
ON the people. There was an enthusiastic
feeling throughout the Convention. though
the writer was somewhat puzzled to know
whether personal affection for John Paul
wasn't superior with this audience TO any
clear conviction they might entertain
OF the political superiority of
their party. So strongly was I impressed
with this, that am not dead sure If Paul
had come in with speech denouncine
Manone and the whole Coalition business.
that the air would not have been rended
with shouts of applause.
The Convention was called to order by
Auditor Brown Allen, who is as ubiquit-
Gus IN State politics as Auditor Massey
used to be. 1t seems to me that can 20
nowhere without finding him. MIR. j. Ken
ney Campbell. Proctor of the University
Of Virginia. and formerly of Highland.
acted as temporary chairman. Among the
secretaries was that astute Republican
worker, John A. Noon of Staunton. His
presence brought to my mind the Char
lOttesville convention, the last place saw
vsntion was really in favor of Major Yost
for Congress, but an irresistible influence
was brought in favor Of the Coalition idea
and YOst was beaten. l will never cease
to admife the game way little Johnnie put
in his work against the heavy odds oppos-
ing him. Things haye greatly changed
since then, and to-day both be and Major
Vest were there to vote for Paul.
Whilst waiting for a permanent organi-
zation young man named Rob't ]. Walk
or, of Woodstock, ons of the best speakers
ofhis age I have heard for along time, made
hot impstuous and eloquent little speech.
This young man may be set down az SOON
or or later. to be the Coalition candidate
for Congress for this district, should that
party hold together long enough. If it
falls to pieces as now seems likely, then he
will be prominent in some other party.
