NELSON POLITICS.
Warm Fight for Legislative Honors
Nearing an End-Sone Forecasts.


GRAPE LAWN VA, Aug. Especial
One of the most hotly-contested bates
ever waged within the ranks of the Nell
son county Democracy will end with the
result Of the primary on Saturday next
August 18th, which will determine whether
Dr. A. -. Fitzpatrick shall be returned
10 the House of Delegates, or whether his
opponent Or. John G. Everett. shall wear
the hOnors for the next two years. TIE
fact that both candidates hail irony the
same section makes this Ghe Rockhsh
District the bloody angle of the con-
test. and engenders, perhaps. more bit
terness than prevails in any other part
OF the county.
As the end OF the struggle approaches,
the issues are more clearly defined, and
resolve themselves largely into a question
OF choice between men. The senatorshiD
has been practically eliminated by the
refusal Of the Executive Committee. Of
which Or. Everett is q member by q vote
OF Q 70 g. CDR r. voting I'm the negative),
TO allow the names Of the senatorial cam
didates 10 be printed on the ballots and
by the decinatlon Of either candidate 10
publicly declare his choice between Sena-
tor Martin and Governor Tyler.
With the senatorship thus fairly ont OF
tho way. the only question OF public inter
est. upon which the candidates are known
10 differ. IS the SUPPLEMENTARY OF the
county schools.
IL cannot be stated author tatvely wheth-
or or not the present incumbent viii be
an applicant for reapp0intment but In
the event Of the nomination Of DR.. Dve-
rett. # Is said that he will recommend
Hon Henry r. Harris. ex-member Of the
House from Nelson, and a warm support
or Of DIR. Everett. Your correspondent
has interviewed a number Of leaders on
both sides as 90 the probable result Of
the primary. and finds their forecasts
widely divergent
Mr.. John Shipman, one of the most
widely-knoWn and astute lieutenants Of
Dr. Everett. said 10 me that after a
careful canvass Of the county he was
willing 10 predict the nomination Of his
chief by am overwhelming majority.
The Fitzhugh managers. on the other
hand. seem equally confident of the suc-
cess Of their favOrite. and are Offering
odds Of two % one that the old "G~a.,
Eagle" who has travelled the winning
pace I'm so many former heats. will reach
the post by a safe length, on the home
stretch
have thus given The prediction Of lead
ers on both sides OF the primary contest.
/ desire now to record one OF my own
and 1t is this: whichever Of the doctors
shall receive the majority Of votes I'm the
primary Will be a member Of the next
House Of Delegates. for Il has long since
been determined I'm Nelson that no man
need apply for this high honor who
mas not on the wedding garment Of
