Locking Over the Field,


! Harvey L.WilsOn, one Of theeditors of the
Richmond News, and one Of the brightest
newspaper men in the South, is Just at
present engaged in writing up the Valley
and other sections of the State that he IL
touring Politics, which is uppermost in
the minds Of Yi-ginans at present, il re-
ceiying the greater share Of his attention.
He is writing from a non-partisan stand
point, and among other things has the
following to say about Clarke county:
This county has twelve delegates in the
Norfolk convention. There are fourmag-
isterial districts and the delegates are
chosen direct TO the convention by mass.
meetings in the districts There is feel
ing here that the selection Of school SUI
perintendents is in some way being utilized
as a political adjunct, and this is not do
ing Mr.. Montague any good. The con-
test for school superintendent will cut an
important figure ia the result, and no
delegates are likely to be chosen as long
as the appointment is held up.
Being in the same State Senatorial and
Congressional District, the voters here
are disposed TO be for Captain R. 5. Parks
Of Page county, for Attorney General,
and they also will support Mr.. Willard
for the office Of Lieutenant-GoyernOr, but
should Captain Parks be out Of the race
they would go TO John L. Jefiries, Of Cul-
peper.
Should there be "a divided delegation
here it would be in the ratio of three to
one for Mr. Swanson, and there is a
strong probability Of his getting a solid
delegation.
OVER THE MOUNTAIN.
Just on the other side OF the mountain
here lie the counties OF Madison, Greene
add Rappahannock.
In the latter county the politicians have
agreed y behalf OF "the people to divide
the delegation evenly between Messrs.
Swanson and Montague. This wesdone
to avoid any political iockeying in the
contest for school superintendent, for
which Howell NJ Miller has opposition.
Mr. Miller has served many years and is
we'll qualified for the position, and the
county Of Rappahannock wanted to take
the office "out OF politics"
Madison aud Greene counties will befor
Mr.. Swanson. have seen number Of
people from those counties and there Is
hardly man that does not put them
safely in Mr. Swanson's column.
u Greene there is another fight for
school superintendent. DR.. George b.
Jennings, the incumbent, is being opposed
by Dr. Jesse Ewell of Ruckersvine.
II WARREN COUNTY
Strong pressure is being brought to
bear on Mr. Montague to secure the APP
poiptment OF Mr. Roy. One OF che largest
farmers in the county, a iriend OF Mr.
Roys and n Swanson advocate, told me
to-day that friend of NJ Montague's
had been to him and urged him to join in
letter 20 Mr. Montague stating that II
he appointed Mr.. Roy that be would
help carry the county for him. He
declined, but there IS no doubt that the
school appointment will cut some figure
in this campaign. | omit names for there
is no desire to create local strife, but the
fact is absolute, and give il solely to
show the degree to which the school
appointments are being used in some
counties of the State.
