PUTNAM DEMOCRAT
NAMES CANDIDATE

Charleston, Oct. 26.-The editor
of the Putnam Democrat, John w.
Miller, who was here a few days ago,
declared that the Democrats could
elect Senator Adam Littlepage OF
Kanawha, governor, and that Put
nam county. although now strongly
Republican, would give a Democratic
majority for the senator from Ka-
nawha. He also declared, when re-
minded that Henry G.. Davis would
make a good man. that the state
owed the aged philanthropist nothing
and that he should be permitted to
spend the rest OF his days as he saw
fit; that the Democrats needed some
new and young blood, and some one
with life to lead them to victory.
He thought that Senator Littlepage,
who, he added, would be able to
unite the labor people, would be the
proper person to head the ticket and
rejuvenate Democracy.

THE new CANDIDATE
FOR NOMINATION

Charleston. w. Va. Oct. 2e.--
some one has started rumor that
Hon. Fred Paul Grosscup. a former
speaker OF the house. and Tor years
an active politician. will be a candi-
date for tho nomination OF governor
on the Republican aicket. When Mr.
Srossoup was seen by your corre-
spondent he denied that he had an
nounced his candidacy. and said that
he did not know whether he would
be candidate or not: that he was
associated with a number OF busl-
ness men In enterprises that now re-
quired his entire time and which
could not very well be sacrificed by
him. He added. however. that if
his associates later urged that he
become n candidate and satisfactory
business arrangements can be made.
and IL his friends over the state then
believe he has good chance of
securing the nomination he might be
candidate, but at the present time
he was not.
