ingly on the political situation down
there. He visited sharpsburg, Mt.
Sterling, Bethel and divers other
places. Z: 4
He said there was q terrible split In
the Democratic ranks down, there and
that Yerkes, the Republican candidate
for governor, would be elected beyond
a reasonable shadow Of doubt. One
element OF the Democratic party was
bitter against the outrageous seating OF
Goebel; another portion was bitter on
account of the treatment the rIghtful
governor. Taylor. had received at the
hands OF the Democratic party: still
another element declared they would
not support w. J. Bryan and his free
silver Ideas, and the small remaining
remnant was not numerous enough TO
elect a county constable.
Mr.. Rogers also travelled through the
lower end of West Virgins, and up the
river front and from his observations
he did not think It necessary to have an
election. as Hon. a. B. White would be
elected in the same manner he was
nominated-by reclamation. Republi-
cans would not only elect the state ana
county tickets. but all the corporation
tickets. He thought this IN entirely
