THE PARTY IN GOOD SHAPE.
Chairman Chiffon Thinks That With
Proper Organization,
The Democrats Can Garry West
Virginia by from Five to Ten
Thousand - Some Gubernatorial
Candidates Mentioned--The Ques
ton Of How to Select Delegates
to the National Convention.
Special to the Register.

Special to the Register.
Charleston, w. Va. February "a
Hon. w. E. Chiffon, chairman of the
Democratic State Executive Committee,
left here this afternoon for Parkers-
burg to attend a meeting of the State
Committee. Mr.. Chiffon says the Dem
ocratic party in the State is in good
shape. and much more firmly united
than it was a year ago. He believes
mat with proper organization the Dem
ocrats can carry the State by from
5000 to 10000. He is in favor Of begin
ming the work of organizing the party
at once for effective work.
One Of the questions which will have
to be disposed of by the committee at
its meeting in Parkersburg, and upon
which there is some division of opinion,
is whether to call a State convention
for choosing delegates to the National
Democratic Convention, or to refer the
choice of delegates to conventions to
be held in each Congressional district.
1t is held that the choice of delegates
by district conventions could be accom-
plished with less expense and at the
same time be more satisfactOry-each
convention choosing two delegates for
the district and one delegate at large.
There are others who believe the
work can be better done by a State
convention. 1t is said that ex-Govern-
or Fleming. who is urged by his friends
as one of the delegates to the National
Convention. favors the State cOnven-
ton plan for the choice of delegates.
There is said to be an organized
movement among the friends of Col.
Clarence l.. Smith to nominate him for
Governor. Col Smith doesn't appear
to be doing much himself, but has
simply placed himself in the hands of
his friends, and is willing to accept the
nomination if it be rendered him.
Col. John A. Robinson. of the 3. & o.
railway, who was mentioned some time
ago as an available candidate for Gov
ernor, IS not in the race, having an
nounced that he would not accept the
nomination for Governor under any
consideration.
Col. VIM. N. Clements. of Jefferson
county is among the latest persons
talked of as a Democratic candidate for
Governor. Being a farmer he would
be enthusiastically supported by the
farming element. He is conspicuously
plain man of the people. while he is
at the same time just as conspicuous as
a man OF superior intellectual ability.
His friends say he would make a model
Governor, and his election ,Iuld be a
great credit to the State. His nomina-
ton will be urged by his friends.
