The Democratic political sky in West
Virginia is not cloudless. We have
from time 10 time referred to the very
bitter fight that is now going on the
Fourth district between tho Camden
faction and the "antis" for the control
OF the Congressional convention. DEM
ocratic papers are openly accusing the
ex-senator Of "meddling" and arc ser.
wing notice upon him that the people OF
the Fourth district arc growing tired OF
his boss ,ule. In other sections OF the
State tho old sores are also being re.
opened.
Mr.. Camden has selected this year to
recover the prestige he lost in 1857, when,
after n OF the bittcrest factional fights
in thehistory Of any state, he was obliged
to withdraw from the Senatorial contest,
His determination 10 re-enter the politi.
cal arena as a candidate for United
States Senate is an open secret, and has
aroused considerable resentment among
the old.time kickere. On the other hand,
some OF the Camden element are begin.
