hard for Dayton to whom they were
under no obligations whatever.
And now it is sand that they have
grown bitter against Dayton, and viii
try to down him in the next conven-
tion with Frank Cox. That is proba-
bly, the reason Marion was taken out
of the Second District They are
pretty long headed politicians at Nor
gantown, aud they doubtless foresaw
that Marion would support Cox like
they supported Meredith. Hence
they worked Marion out Of the Second
District into the First where she don't
count.
But Dayton's luck will likely con-
tinue with him as far as the conven-
ton is concerned. Stark Bake would
like to have the nomination; Frank
Cox's friends think he would make Il
fairly efficient Congressman, and there
are one or two fellows over in the
Eastern Panhandle with the ssbee ia
their bonnets:n but Dayton has
cinch on the nomination against all
these. Whether in an off year, the
nomination will do him much good
well, that may be different story.
He has got in the habit of running a
good ways behind his ticket, aud there
won't be much politics in next years
election, and II the Democrats put up
really first class man, that district
is not SO safely Republican as to make
his election an assured fact by any
means.
1t has been intimated that Wood
Daley will enter the lists against
him. In that case Dayton's danger
signal will be nut to the Armor trust,
and he will need all the help it can
give him.
