His friends here are not apprehenslve
of the result
Cuyahoga county will present two,
and perhaps three candidtes, for the
honor. Two have already announced
| their candidancy They are Judge
Lamson ana Attorney Louis II. Winch
| EX-Director of Law Norton, is also
| snid to be in the race,
The Plain Dealer has the following
dacy:
Attorney Louis III. Winch wants to
be Circuit Judge for the Northern dis
trict of Ohio to succeed Judge Mar
vim, whose term expires this year.
Mr.. Winch is very much IN earnest
about his candidacy, and the first move
was made at the Republican conven
| ton Saturday, which selected the can
didates to the Judicial convention,
which will likely be held May 3. Mr..
Winch Is the president of the Ohio
Abstract Co., and is a member of the
legal firm of Winch & Thompson,
In his efforts to land the nomina-
tion at the hands of the Judicial con
vention his campaign was inaugural
cd at the Republican convention. All
effort was made by Mr. Winch to send
as many court house employees as pos
siblc to the judicial convention, the
court house people all being lined up
in the interests of his candidacy. The
effort to secure court house people as
delegates was very successful, some
thing like twenty delegates being en-
ploycs or officials in the county build
ms
In his effort to secure the nomination
NJ. Winch has formed an alliance, so
the story goes, with w. II. Gabriel
and Auditor W. Il. Craig. Mr.. Gabriel
some ten years ago was Il car of
Cuyahogn county politics. But some
time ago he was put out Of the polit-
icnl game with resoundlng whack.
Various Republicans Of both Hanna
and McKlssoa shades take the pres
ent reported alliance Of Mr.. Gabriel
with Mr.. Winch rs Indicative of Mr..
(iabrlcl's desire TO got back into po-
litlcal life and regain some Of his
former prestige. There are those pol
iticians who have already taken their
knives from their scabbards and are
whetting them to n fine point In the
anticination OF using them ut the Ju.
dlcial convention when Alr. Winch
hobs ,lp as n candidate, These politi.
clans declare they Will resent any ef-
fort on the part of Mr.. Gabriel to again
become factor in Cuyahoga county
Ipolitics. They also declare that they
will take II fall out of Auditor Craig
when he appears In the political arena
as candidate for reelection next
fall. They declare he Is endangering
his chances by the alleged three-cor-
nered alliance.
There seems TO be foundation for the
story--although as yet Mr. Winch has
not announced his candidacy
the list of delegates il scanned. Some
of the court house people who will so
as delegates to the Judicial convention
are the following: Auditor w. Il.
Craig, County Commissioner Kennedy,
W. j. Nahouse, of the Treasurer's of
fee. James Walker, of the Recorders s
office, w. G. Beck, Of the Board OF
Equalization, Fred Click, janitor; j.
V. Chapek, who does abstract work in
the Auditors ofllce; John Davis, jan
itor, and B. F, Davis, who does alb
stract work In tho Recorders office.
In addition to these there are several
others who work in the county Of
fees.
The McKissonites and the Hennaites
alike Will have their knives out for
Mr. Winch, The deal has not yet
been made public, but the announce
ment of Mr.. Winch's candidacy is ex-
pected TO come this week unless pre-
