 When senor obaldia was ofFicially informed by a special committee, rep resenting each district of Panama province of the result here, he said, in A speech, that the only obligation ha had contracted was to govern with the best elements of the country.

West Virginia is state where
they do things worth while-a

development forces are at work aud
q state whose chiet executive will
take his rightful place among the
governors of the foremost common

nation. The eyes of capitalists,
promoters and investors are on
West Virginia as The coming state
OF the Union. She is solving lust
now great problems Of vital impor.
tanoe, and her recent rejuvenation
gives to the gubernatorial contest /
today a significance it has not been
vested with in some years.
Having been in West Virginia

from an absolutely unprejudiced
viewpoint Of the outsider, we are in
position to state advisedly that
there is no shadow of a doubt tast
the next Republican candidate
which means practically the next
governor of West Virginia-will
be the Honorable Arnold Z. Scherr,
auditor Of the state, and th't in all
this section there could not be
found a man better qualified in
every particular for this honorable
position, whose sterling worth and
ability have been more thoroughly
tried out, or who is so pre-eminent-
ly the man for the place.
He has served his state we'll.
Twice has he been honored by his
party and the people of West Vir-
ginia. He is now serving his
second term as auditor, in which
capacity he has proven himself
probably the most efficient the
state has ever had, carefully and
conscientiously guarding the inter.
ests of the people, and dong par
tibularly commendable work in the

rect as can possibly be compiled at
the present writing: The total
vote of West Virginia Is se5, which
means that 443 are necessary for
nomination, Thirty-three counties
have held conventions TO date. 3Oe
are for MIR. Scherr and 24O for the
opposing candidate, Mr.. Swisher.
Cabell county has 25 delegates
which are contested and your cor.
respondent happening to be in
Huntington on the day of the con-
vention, would say that Mr.. Scherr
will obtain better than one-half of
the votes from that county. There
are 337 delegates yet to be select
ed, and as only 1875 more votes are
needed to insure Auditor Scherr's
nomination, all apparent chances of
defeat are swept away.

found in every community but it is
seldom that we are able to chronicle

done so much for his state or who il
so entirely worthy Of public re-

K. OF P. Lodge Mdu Meet In Hunt
InOtOn.

Huntington, in all probability,
will entertain the Grand Lodge and
uniform rank Of the Knights of
Pythias at their .conclave to be
held in October. Huntington last
year had this honor, and It was
decided this year to meet in Hin
ton, that place winning out after
hard fight.
1t has now been discovered that
Hinton cannot take care of the
immense throng of visitors that
yearly attend these state meetings.
The hotel Accommodations of Hinton
are not large enough to provide for
all who would be there, and the
Hinton lodge, that would have
charge of all the arrangements,
after looking the situation over,
reported to the Grand Chan ccllor
the condition that confronts them.
recommending that some city in
the state, better equipped with
hotels, be selected.
AT the last meeting of the Hunt.
ington Knights of Pythias, a
letter was read from Grand Chan
cellor, N. q. Prickett, of Ravens
wood, telling the likelihood Of
some place, other than Hinton,
being selected for the conclave, and
further stating that he bad received
a number of letters from different
lodges asking that the Grand
Lodge be held in Huntington.
The matter will be decided
within the next two weeks, and az
the Huntington Pythians are deter.
mined to do all they can to get
Huntington selected as the place,
and as a great majority of the
lodges throughout the State are in
favor of going there, there seems
little doubt but that Huntington
will be selected.

power and activity he holds . posi-.
ton that cannot be disputed.
There 10 nothing spectacular about
this man OF success. In every line
OF bis face he bears the impress of q
life given over to furtheriug the
highest ideals Of duty and it would
be hard, indeed. to 6ud \ better
type OF the quiet, forceful, able aud
successful leader of men than
Arnold @. Soherr, candidate for
governor. With the intuitive
knowledge aud keen observation Of
human nature and peculiar mental
equipment, he would have reached
the top in whatever profession or
enterprise he was engaged in by
virtue of ceaseless energy, an indi-
vidual sense Of duty aud a very
marked ability.
We know We are voioing public
sentiment when we say that with
Mr.. Scherr as governor, the Noun
tain State could have no better
chief executive. If party devotion,
loyalty to friends, personal worth
and stateemaulike qualifications are
to be regarded and recognized,
then no man in the state can lay
more logical claim to a four years
tenure in the executive mansion
than the Honorable Arnold c.
