A meeting of the First District Re-
publican Congressional Committee was
held yesterday afternoon in the Office
OF Attorney S. G. Smith, chairman OF
the committee, on Chapline street. The
purpose Of the meeting was to select
the time and place for the delegate and
congressional conventions. Clarks-
Durg secured the former and Weston
the latter.
Doddridge, Tyler, Hancock and Wetzel
counties were not represented Senator
W. 7. Cole, OF Weston, had the proxy
OF w. +. Morrison. of Braxton. and
J. I. Carter the proxy of NJ. H. Willis,
OF Doddridge. Gilmer was represented
by j. 5. Brannon, of Glenville; Harri-
son by S. c. Denham, OF Clarksburg;
Lewis by Charles B. Goodwin, of Wes-
ton; Marshall by o. C. Wilson. of
Woodlands, and Ohio by Hugo l.. Loos,
of Wheeling. The Chamber of Com
merce letter, asking that Wheeling be
chosen as the place for holding the
Congressional convention, was READ
and courteously considered, but Wheel
ing's claims We're not pressed, for the
reason that the last convention was
held here.
Weston was selected for the Con-
gresslonal convention, practically with
cut opposition, and the time was fixed
as June 9th at one O'Clock p. III.
Clarksburg, May 7th, at three o'clock
p. m, was decided upon as the place
and time for the convention for select
ing two delegates and two alternates
to the National Republican convention
to be held in Philadelphia The State
delegate convention will be held in
Fairmont on the following day, and it
is likely that the First District conven-
ton will select one set of delegates for
both conventions. So far very few
names are heard in connection with
the position of delegate, but it is I'M
derstood that there is a popular dis
position to select Mr.. Hugo L. Loos, of
this city, as one of the alternates.
Each county delegation at the Con-
gressional convention will elect mem
Der of the new Congressional commit
tee.
There was a quiet meeting of Ohio
county Republicans in the First
Branch Council chamber Monday night
called for the avowed purpose of
arouS1ng interest in the coming cam
paign, but in reality to formulate plans
for booming the candidacy of James
X. Hall for State Auditor at the con-
vention to be held in Parkersburg. Mr..
w. H. Hornish called the meeting to
order, and stated its object to be to
take steps toward securing the nom
ination of men who could be relied
upon to positively attend the conven-
ton. The inference was that it was
desired to secure big crowd of Hall
"rooters."
The chairman of the meeting was E.
Buchanan, and the secretary c. o.
Roemer Speeches were made by Col.
Morris Horkheimer, e. Buchanan, H. G.
Richards, S. o. Boyce. j. P. Maxwell
and others.
