WASHINGTON DC, April IL
The announcemnt made in these dis
patches a few days ago that Col Tom
Davis, the present representative IN
CONGRESS from the Second West Viz
rfria district. VIII not beza candidate
to succeed himself has resulted IN
great political activity among both
the Republicans and the Democrats
who, by either their friends or them
selves. are regarded as political pos
siblities. Senator ElEns, too. is
keeping a careful eye on the situation
for he recognizes that the campaign
this fail for the Legislature which he
hopes VIII reflect him to the Senate
z VIII be one @of the hardest fought bat
ties seen IN recent years in the poll
tics Ct that State. When Representa-.
tive Davis decided not to become ,
candidate to succeed himself It was
suggested that he be a candidate for
the Legislature from Mineral county
because that county, although Re
publican county. can easily be carried
by Mr.. Davis, because of his personal
popularity Mr. Davis however. de
EIkins by marriage.
In that senatorial district Mr.. Babb.
of Keyser, son.in-law of Auditor
Scher. Is mentioned for the Senate.
and in the rotation observed either
his county for Tucker is entitled to
the Senator this time. At the same
time Senator Forman. Of Grant, is
making vigorous campaign to sue
coed himself. Senator Forman. it

ton which nominated him. and who

but Colonel Davis was elected Among
the Democrats mentioned who may be
candidates to succeed Colonel Davis
are Junior Brown, of Preston county.
who was defeated by Judge Dayton:
John J. Cornwen,. who was the Demo
cratic candidate for governor at tho
last election; John McGraw. Of Graf
ton Blaine Taylor. Of Randolph: D.
III. Hner, OF Pend1eton, and VIM
Campbell, OF JEFFERSON. who is a hold
over Senator. The Democrats argue
that as the legislature may be close.
and there Is some hope of their con-
trolling that body, Mr.. Campbell, who
is a member Of the legislature. should
not resign. because his party will not
take chances On an election Tor his
successor It is not be1ievd that Mr..
eMcGraw will persists very long in
his candidacy. but that he intends to
make a fight for MIR. Elbins' seat. If
the Democrats carry the legislature.
The friends Of Mr. Hiner base his
claim for the nomination on the fact
that Pend1eton county IS one OF the
sc.5-uocratic counties that may very
easily go Republican unless he IS the
candidate for Congress. It is under
stood that Senator E1kns prefers the
nomination OF + Stanley Hodges for
State Senator from Pendleton, believ-
ing that he can carry the county Tor

date but it is supposed to be at least 40
years ago. 1t was bui!tof logs and had
been W ather- boarded on the outside.
The roof was the old fashion Cardboard
kind and Notwithstanding its age Mr..
Merrill says that there we're vefy few
places where it leakedi
The other building is the Fairfield
building which is being torn down to be
rep aced by the new postoffice building.
THIS building was built by tho firm of
Jenkins q Hetlley in 1888 and was used
