WHITE sGtrHuR sPRNos. W. Va. Aug. 8.
MIR. Taft met the Republican leaders Of
West Virginia here late tonight In an effort
to bring about peace in the Republican
ranks.
The situation In West Virginia is in many
respects one Of the ugliest the candidate
has had TO face., Two Republican candi-
dates for Governor have been nominated.
Arnold G. Soherr and Charles w. 6wishsr.
swisher 10 the regular nominee. Soherr
and his delegates bolted the regular oon-
venton because they thought they had got Q
raw deal from the committee on credentials.
Both sides assured Mr.. Taft some time
ago that they would have /ths same set Of
Presidential electors, but things have be-
come % warm now that the electors named
by the regular or 6wisher organization
have refused to allow their names TO Be
used on tho Sob ctr ticket.
Two sets Of Republican electors in the
field means thatithe chances for Taft carry
ing the State Will be jeopardised.
The meeting tonight was called by Sena-
tor Scott and Congressman Joseph H..
0alnes. Both factions were represented,
and swisher himself attended the meeting
for time. u soherT was. rspresepted- bx.

George O. Mcintosh Of Fayetteville. secre-
tary OF the Scherr State committee.
The meeting tonight was the first time
that the two factions had even been able
to get together to discuss peace terms.
Altogether about ten Republican leaders,
including Senator Scott and Congressman
Gaines. attended the conference. Mr.. Taft
was present at the opening of the confer
enoe. and while expressing his desire for
peace he said that Il would not be proper
at this time for him to interfere one way or
the other. 49,.
Mr.. Taft left the room then, and he was
followed a minute later by Swisher, who
said that some Of the conferees might have
some hard words TO say about him, and he
did not want to throw any cold water on
the meeting by being present. He with.
drew and paced up and down the hotel
veranda awaiting the winding up Of. the
conference.
swisher declared that under no circum-
stances would he withdraw, not even II
he knew he would have to vote against
himself on election day. The real purpose
OF the conference, however, was to get
Scherr, the bolter. to withdraw. The con-
ference started at about II o'clock and at
O'Clock this morning II was still on.

they are rotating in one direction and then
In another. Hence It Is necessary to secure
