sptctal Dispatch TO The Inte!!f1enc,r.
CLARkspuRo, W. VA, Sept. 0.-The
trouble among the Democrats here re.
garding the Congressional and Senatorial
nominations is likely to be greatly in.
creased by the diSsenslon among them
in regard to- county nominations. Can.
didates for county offices and for the
House OF Delegates are thicker than
grasshoppers In Kansas and its unsafe 10
speak 10 A Democrat III regard 10 the
probable ticket for fear you will find
yourself addressing candidate for soule
office, who does not believe In the party
unless they nominate him.
For the House OF Delegates there arc
at least six candidates who have publicly
announced themselves as such, among
them being Camden Sommere, editor Of
the News, and II. Crummit, a well known
Sore keeper, both Of whom feel that they
are the only men for the position.
There are as many candidates, II not
aoAei AoI Souhty SleIA ES tueEe ATe lot
House of Delegates. Among these are
some old wheel horses Of Democracy, SO
old, overworked, aud, according to their
statements, ill.treated by their party
that they have become veritable cranks
on the subject OF their wrongs. They
cannot talk on any other subject for five
consecutive minutes, and their continual
whining has become bore to all disln.
terested citizens.
The Congressional muddle is as thick
as ever, although John J. Davis's chances
are considered about the best Of all, and
he and bis friends srs doing all in their
po wer to improve them. Since It has
been announced that he was a candidate
the rank and file have become a little
over him, and it is not i'm.
probable that at the primaries, unless
some trickery is prac,iced, the delegates
will be instructed for him. Pendleton
was here yesterday and interviewed a |
great many OF the most prominent OF his
party, aud from the expression on bis
when he left town one
would not think the town smelled very
good to him.
