Ohio County.

O'to S0hhtys
In some claims sent out by Auditor
Scherrs friends, the 80 votes of Ohio
county ara given to him. This is, of
curse, without authority, as no &C.
ion of any kind has been taken that
could be construed as assuring Mr..
Scherr of Ohio county's support.
There is undoubtedly more sentiment
or Scherr in Ohio county than there
for Swisher, but at the present
time the disposition is generally TO
await development, so far as this
county is concerned. The solid vote
+ Ohio county, it will be seen, howev-
err, will give the auditor within a score
as many votes as the secretary of
state.
OF the counties yet to vote Preston,
Wood. Richie, Randolph and Lewis
are the largest. All of these are con-
|fidently claimed by the Scherr people.
| If their expectations are met they will
get 80 of the 104 delegates from these
counties, which will give the auditor
a commanding lead. Hancock's seven
votes and the eight of Peasants are
also counted sure for Scherr. In the
above table the vote of Roane county
| is given to Scherr, but this is contest.
d by the Swisher people. Doddridge
| is given to Swisher but Scherr claims
onehalf of the delegation. In Mason
both candidates, claim 16 votes, and
in the table the vote is split evenly,

WORK OF THE CONGRESS.
Many Bills That viii Not Be Acted
On This Session.
SESSION is CLOSE TO THE END
Non-Action May Make Good "Thun-
der' For Campaign Speakers
This Year.

Washington, d. c., May 20.--lt Il
probable now that the final adjourn
ment OF congress will take place OF
either Saturday, the 23rd inst, o.
Monday, the 18th. In the opinion Of
the leaders of both branches the ac
tual work outlined can be finished in
time for adjournment on Saturday.
The determination to adjourn early
will leave much important Legislation
unenacted upon. The bills, of course
are not dead, but merely will be car
ried over until the next session. Def
mite action on some of them undoubt
eddy will be obtained next winter; but
he fact that they were not disposed
of at the present session is likely to
cut more or less important figure in
he approaching presidential cam
paign. Here are some of the meas
ures on which no action is to be taken
at this time.
Amendments to the Sherman anti
trust act advocated by the Civic Fed
GRAFTON and by the president.
An anti-injunction bill, advocated
by organized labor.
The measure providing for publicity
of campaign contributions.
A tariff measure reducing the Gus
toms rates on Philippine products, ad-
vocated by the administration.
A measure to remove the duty on
wood pulp.
The measure providing for the re-
instatement, in specified circum-
stances, of the men of the Twenty
fifth Infantry, discharged for insubor-
dination.
More drastic laws for the regulation
liquor selling in the District of
Columbia.
The measure regulating interstate
shipments of liquor, advocated by the
Anti-Saloon league.
A bill making Porto Ricans citizens
of the United States.
The swamp land reclamation bill.

RACE FOR GOVERNOR
IS A CLOSE ONE

The Wheeling Intelligencer has pre-
pared from all sources OF information
at hand, a careful compilation Of the
strength of the republican candidates
for governor, which shows that at the
present time Secretary of State
Swisher has a considerable lead, but
Is yet by no means certain of the nom
ination. On the contrary the counties
that have yet to vote are reported to
show preference for Auditor
Scherr, and the chances are that he
will get majority OF their delegates.
In compiling the table below, the
claims of neither candidate are ac-
cepted as authoritative. A number of
counties are claimed in whole or in
part by both, and a special effort has
been made to arrive at an accurate es-
innate regardless of conflicting state
ments The table follows:
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1908-05-23
OHIO WILLIAMS.

The democratic party in this county
has quite a mix-up in its senatorial
contest The convention to select del
agates last Saturday was the noisiest
and most turbulent ever held in this
county, and the boiling delegation has
good cause for its action. The time
has come when one or two men can
not name the delegates for the coun-
try districts and then ask the farmers
TO endorse them. And il looks like
the only way to put a stop TO such
proceedings is for the country people
40 take matters in their own hands as
was done last Saturday. If this is
done reveral times the democratic
bosses will learn a lesson that they
will not soon forget. Every honest
countryman only asks for fair play
and that he must have, or he is going
to resent It, and rightly too.
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1908-05-23

1t is conceded that GovernorDaw-
son made wise appointment when
he named Mr.. Conley, of Kingwood,
to fill the office OF Attorney General,
made vacant by the untimely death
of Hon. Clark W. May. Mr.. Conley
is a lawyer of no little ability, and
above all, one OF the oleanest and
most honorable men in public office
today. He stands high in his profess
sion, and time will show that his ad-
ministration will merit the approval
of the great mass of people at large.
II was only after careful research and
calm investigation that the governor
honored him with this appointment,
and he has no apology to make for
has been raised to Mr.. Conley, and
that he will be the nominee to sue
coed himself there is little question.
The people of this state are clamor-

II there is any one thing OF which
the people OF this county should feel
proud ii is the elevation of her
honored sons and daughters. That
many honors have been bestowed up
on her citizens is well known fact,
and when the news come home OF
those who went out from our midst
having won additional laurels, every
true and loyal citizen should feel
proud. 1t is only few years since
Robert X, Robinson. of Shanghai,
secured position with the United
States Fish Commission. In a short
time he was promoted to superintend-
emit of the West Virginia Fisheries
at White Sulphur Springs, at a fiat

fish culturist is recognized by those
who are in a position to know is
proven when Governor Dawson recent
ly appointed him as one of the dele
gates to represent this state at the
Information Fishery Congress which
convenes in Washington city next
September We are ready to take our
hat off to Mr.. Robson and bid him
God-speed in his important enter

in an amicable manner the lesson
learned OF handling such tremen-

to a mass convention in this county.
Let each mag'sterial district elect its
own delegates hereafter and then
there will be no need for such meet
ing as was held last Saturday
