The Fairmont West Virginian. (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1904-1914, 1905-07-27

A Fairmont gentleman was over in
Preston county a few days ago, and
meeting a number of Republicans
the White Sulphur Springs conference
was referred to and somewhat dis
cussed. The Fairmonter mentioned
the fact that their State Senator-Sam
Montgomery-was taking a leading
part in the "insurgent", movement and
wanted to know II he represented
Preston Republicans in SO doing.
They all answered in concert that he
did not represent any one but himself
In that county, and they repudiated
him as their State Senator. They
supposed that Sam was representing
at White Sulphur the same man that
he represented at Charleston last
winter-one Randolph Stalnaker, chief
lobbyist of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company. They thought,
however, that Sam was doing right
in a sense-that Ran having nomi-
mated him he should yield obedience
to his commands. The thing that dis
gusted them more than anything else
was the information they had obtain
ed from Charleston that Sam was al
ways running to find Ran to know
how he should vote on all questions,
whether the railroad company or its
lobbyist was interested in them or
not. They said Sam acted as though
he felt that Stalnaker absolutely
owned him body. boots and breaches.

MISUNDERSTANDING State Journal.
Judge Cor never consented to run
for any elective ofice, but he never
declined to run after his party had
nominated him. When nominated for
governor both in 1876 and 1858 he
would not consent to run prior to the
nominations, but jumped into the fight
Immediately afterwards. On the for.
mer occasion he protested against his
name being used in the convention,
and would not attend It, but when he
received a letter from the committee
that was appointed to inform him OF
his nomination, he forthwith respond.
ed as follows: II accept the nomi.
nation and am ready for the fight,
And he was ready. as he Immediately
entered upon his campaign, and not.
withstanding the Democrats had their
strongest following at that time, he
had them figuratively scared to death
until the election was over. If-the
next Legislature should prefer the
Judge to any one else for United
States Senator there is no doubt in
the minds of those who know him
but he would accept the office with
the same alacrity he has accepted
the many nominations from his party.
II this is doubted by Republicans let
them send Goff representatives to the
next Legislature and they will then
see that we know what we are talking
about.
