Mr.. Elklns Having some Trouble on His
Hands-His Ridiculous Claim That he
"Carried the state"
Speet0sto ms RsJistsr.
GRAFTON, w. VA, December To-
One OF the leading Republicans, aud a
man who travels all over the State, who
knows every member elected to the Sen
ate and Lower House. In conversation
with your correspondent said: "a man
who imagined or thought Mr.. Elkins
had clear sailing into the United States
Senate, was simply talking through his
hat, and knew nothing about the stu
alton. Unless the Republican members'
all agree to go into caucus, Mr.. Elkins
will not be the next Senator
from West Virginia. The
votes have been counted and
Mr.. Elkins knows full well that he has
trouble on his hands. That is why be
is making his big dinners and inviting
in the members elected. He is count
ing on getting the vote Of some Demo
Gratis In the Senate. He expects to get
the vote OF Senator Scott, OF Berkeley.
but l think he is uncertain ia that For
my part, am Republican, but can't
see why Mr.. Elkins should go 10 the
Senate from this State. He claims that
ne was the man that fought the fight for
the Republicans and brought about the
big victory that we achieved GU the 9th
of Novem Der. Well, II he did, there
must have been big SElkins in most
every State, for the Republican victory
is greater in many States than In West
Virginia. For my part think the Re-
publican majority would have been
larger in West Virginia the last cleo
ton il Mr. ElEins had been in some
other State. Talk about him spending
money. 1t is we'll known that he
did not spend a dollar Of his own
money. There is one way
Mr.. Elkins shows bis smartness. He
succeeded in bleeding the national CON-
mittee for large sum and then he got
another large amount by the petition
that was circulated In Pittsburg and
New York with letter fastened TO IL
from Mr.. Elkins saying that to carry
West Virginia for the Republicans was
only a question OF finance, and that he
made the Republicans in this State be-
lIeYe it was his own money. And he
would not even let the Committee in
this Congressional district use the
money; he must call on Mr.. T. (. Davis
to handle it for him.
1 think, like Mr.. Thomas B. Reed,
that a maa must be pretty egotistic to
claim to be responsible for the great
victory achieved by the Republican
party at the last election. think the
people did it. G. c.
