A Charleston correspondence Of the Wheel

or ten prominent Democrats OF the State
whose names have been mentioned In con-
nec.ion with the Democratic nomination for
Governor, and whose respective friends are
industriously grooming them for the race.
Among these are cambridge and Mcdonald,
of Jefferson, Bennett, and Eimiston, Of
Lewis. Capehart aud Wiley of Mason, and
Ira @. Post, of Harrison. A singular iea-
ture about the guberna,3rial contest Is that
six Of the candidates come In pairs-two
from a couuty-aud because of this fact the
contest for the first place on the ticket
promises 70 be more intensely Interesting
than Fl. would otherwise be. The two gem
tIemen named from Jefferson sat together
in the House Of Delegates during the last
session Of the Legislature, and had ample
opportunity 20 prove their superior states

their ability as political leaders Col Dam
bridge is personally very popular, a good
stumper. a good mixer among the masses
and he would undoubtedly bring 10 the ticket
great strength. His colleague, Major Nc
Donald. is an extremely modest man, but a
statesman Of conspicuous ability. He Is a
man who draws me1 70 bin by his rugged
honesty and delightful simplicity of speech

any scramble for the place on the icke,
if nominated he would make a glorious
and if elected would honor the State
