FRANKLIN, SOUTHAMPTON COuN-
TY, VA, August lS.-A very large dnd
enthusiastic crowd of Southampton peo-
ple greeted Governor Montague at Court
land, the county seat, to-day, where he

for Governor or Senator.
He said that he did not advocate It in
the Roanoke convention in 1887, because
he had no chance, as he was not mem

May conference In Richmond. In May, 1893
he made speech in favor OF primaries.

Norfolk convention in 1901, which also
nominated him by an Overwhelming ma
