PARKERsBURG, W. VA, April 3O.-On
Tuesday Congressional conventions will be
held to select delegates to Chicago. The
contest is warm between the Blaine and
Sherman men, with the chances in this
district favorable to the former. Il looks
very much now as though Blaine would

been in this district, and yet the most
prominent Sherman candidate for delegate
