Hon. John 81. Holt, of Hunt
ington, was made permanent chair
man of the State convention and
W. E. r Bryne, of Charleston,
secretary. and F. B. Tippett, of
Point Pleasant, assistant secretary.
The Democratic convention held
at Charleston Wednesday, was the
most largely attended convention
ever held in the state of West Vir-
ginia. Probably twelve hundred
Democratic leaders from every
section of the state were present
and added to the enthusiasm of
the convention.
The personnel of the convention
was matter of general comment.
Professional and business men of
highest standing, the old wheel
horses of the party and the young
er Democracy were alike repre-
sented and in spite of the little
differences that arose at times the
convention closed with the utmost
good feeling prevailing among all
elements of the party. United
Democracy" was painted in letters
of heroic size over the chairman's
table and it was indeed and in fact
united Democracy which gather.
ed in State convention and select
ed it's delegates to the National
convention. All the elements of
the formerly fsction-ridden party
were harmoniously united and all
were recognized. Senators Gam.
den and Davis, who represented
the Democracy of the oIden days,
were given a magnificent ovation.
Governor MacCorkle and o. S.
Mckinney, representing another
large element of the composite
Democracy, were given equal REQ.
ognition. The Bryan element,
which stood out against re-organi,
cation was recognized on the dele
cation and every element of the
party was treated with due oon-
sideration and the one idea of har.
monizing unifying and solidifying
the party and the result was one of
the grandest, most inspiring and
most gratifying conventions the
Democrats of West Virginia ever
held. The pleasing result and the
generally satisfactory outcome
have been matter of general DOM.
ment ever since the convention adj
journed. Everybody was satisfied
and the convention has done more
to arouse, to enthuse and to solidfy
the Democracy than any similar
convention held in the last fifteen
CT twenty years.
The state convention adjourned
shortly before eight O'Clock We'd
nesday night, after having nomi.
mated delegates to the national
convention at st. Louis, and one
candidate for judge of the Su.
preme court, besides naming the
state executive committee.
The delegates to st. Louis are
uninstructed. Two of them, those
from the Fourth district are Hearst
men. The remainder are conser-
vatives, but are not pledged to any
one candidate. Parker and Cor.
man are the favorites.
Hon. John 81. Holt of Cabell

speech upon accepting the chair
manship, he outlined the lines
upon which the present campaign
