known throughout the district from
Brooke to Braxton. Mr.. Harmer was
sure that Captain Dovener would be re-
turned with n larger majority than
ever, and his presentation of Dovener's
name was the signal for wild applause
Mr.. Willis. OF Doddrldge, seconded the
nomination In a neat speech. Mr.. VIII

Tho Republicans of the First district
yesterday nominated Captain Blackburn
Barrett DOvener for Congress- by accla-
nation
Their convention was held at the
Wheeling Park Casino. and every coun-
" in the district. with few exceptions,
sent full delegations The withdrawal
Of Judge John A. Campbell, of Hancock
county, from the race a few days ago
removed much Of the interest attached
60 the convention, which was. never
theless, marked with many interesting
features, and the harmony and ener-
getlc Republlcanism were commendable.
There was a brush when II came to
seating the Tyler county delegates. there
being a contesttng delegation, which
was seated on the adoption of the report
Of the committee on credentials, but
this decision resulted In q dozen OF the
Tyler countyites, opposed to the report,
leaving the hall The Tyler county puZ-
Gle also got the Marshall county dele
gates tangled up as to how they should
present their vote. In the midst Of these
contentious. while the other counties
were waiting on their brethren from
Marshall, there came in like a fash
through the hall the news Of Santiago's
surrender. The Intelligencer had tele-
phonad these tidings out, and the glor-
iouS news carried the delegates on their
feet. and the scene Of wild enthusiasm
that followed baffled all description.
When the shouting, cheering and hat
waving demonstrations had ceased, the
white winged bird Of peace lowered
over Marshall county's corner, and the
convention settled down at last to busi-
ness.
The weather WINS all that could be
wished for, and the visit to Wheeling
Park was enjoyed by the out-of-town
delegates, many of whom were accom-
panied by their wives. The convention
proper lasted from 2:3O to o'clock. Out
side of THE Tyler county ripple, the tea-
lures were the nominating speeches, and
the response Of Captain Dovener, and
accompanying speeches by the other
congressional aspirants, Judge Camp
bell and Hon. B. F. MeIghen, both gem
tlemen promising the captain their
earnest support. It was the fourth NOM
nation Captain Dovener has been ten
dered by First district Republicans, a
distinct tribute to the esteem In which
ne is held,
