WHO WILL BE NOMINATED!
If the nomination is, made, it. VIII pro;
bably go to one of several men. oaIiuei
r., Burroughs, former postmaster al
: portsmouth. and for eight years chalr-
nan of the district committee, IS mos
rrcminently regarded at this time Next
RI him comes Hugh Gorden Miller, as
sistant United States attorney to General
Allen; Colonel William Lamb, OF Nortoih'
Jrhn l.. Rorer.- of Norfolk. and eX-Cdl-
gresham Harry Libby, of Hampton. Johts
Dcles. of Southampton. is also spoken OIL.
It is said here on good authority INA
MIR. Burroughs is ambitious for the noEl-
nation and that he can probably get IL.
He has a strong friend behind him IN
Congressman Hull. of Iowa. who is con
nected with Chairman Babcock IN the
management of the Republican campaign.
MI Burroughs is not only ambitious, put
he wants to pay off some old scores Win
the Boyden people It is said that he at
tributes his troubles as postmaster at
Portsmouth to the jealousy of the Bow
der people. because they saw in him the
prospects of a man who might get foot
ing among the people and in Washington.
Practically the same charge is made IN
the case of Hugh Gordon Miller, the Wise
adherents declaring that he has been
kept down because there was promise CT
political development and strength in his
career
THERE Is FRACTIONAL TROUBLE.
