WON'T GO ON TICKET.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Feb. "a
A sensation was caused here in po-
lltIcal circles by the announcement
that Auditor Arnold C. scherr. can
didate for governor. had refused to en-.
ter the primary called for March 18th
| in Ranawha county, to decide whether
he or swisher should have the SO
delegates of Kanawha county. to the
State Republican gubernatorial con-
rention. He based his refusal to en-
ter the contest on the grounds that
the call for said primary was illegal
on three grounds: First, that because
it takes away the 50 delegates
of Kanawha the right to choose dele
gates to said convention, and vests
the right In successful candidate. for
particular office, who, as matters now
stand, would be nonresident. tsaid
call allows candidate and not people
OF county to elect delegates.)
second-That 1t provides no means
of entry of candidates for office other
than that for governor unless said can.
dldates shall happen to be residents
of Kanawha county.
Thlrd-It renders the party helpless
to reject the candidacy Of any person
who may enter from Kanawha county
! for any office other than that of gov
ernor no matter how Objectionable his
candidacy may be If he be sole candI-
date for said Office.
He raises this point that under rule
"A of the State central committee, prl-
mary elections, conventions, or other
meetings are for the selection of dele.
gates, while under the call the success.
full candidate is entitled to name the
delegates; function, he claims. under
rules, which belongs only to the party.
He also objects to the fact that the
primary Is held so early as to bar the
polling Of full vote on account of the
session
Before the county committee, Hon.
| Malcolm Jackson and Grant P. Hall
j supported the contentious of Mr..
/ Scherr. The county executive commit
tee then went into executive session
and after several hours elaboration
refused to change the original call.
which action Mr.. Scherr's friends say
means that he will not enter his name
in the primary called for March 18th
to take the sense of Kanawha Repub-
lican candidates for gubernatorial
nomination. Auditor Scherr announc-
ed that he would appeal to the State
committee from the action of the
county committee. The county com
mittee fixed the primary for county
officers on May II.
Capt. H. B. Avis resigned as chair
man of the committee and Col. Fred
Paul Grosscup was chosen TO succeed
him.
