State Chairman Matthews
Says Ii Viii Not Be I'm
der Those Figures.
TAFT AN EASY WINNER
Estimates Are Regarded Con-
sentative by Him and Vic
tory Will Be Greater.

II confidently expect pluraIit,
of not. less than 10000 for Glass.
cock Tor governor of the State" de.
clared Chairman Samuel v. Matthews
OF the Republican state committee al
Republican state headquarters Wed.
nesday morning. ''aud Taft will get a
few thousand more votes"
Mr.. Mathews stated that he based
the above upon the most careful and
full reports from each county in the
State. Every county committee has
been heard from and all other avail
able reliable sources have been con-
suited. Even every small place in
the State has been heard from. and
the advices at state headquarters are
full and complete. covering every
part of West Virginia.
Chairman Matthews said thai he
regarded the estimates made giving
Glasscock 10000 plurality and Taft
few thousand more as quite con-
sentative and in fact the figures un-
derestimate what the committee be-
lieves will be shown election night.
While there Is confidence in the
outcome, yet the stA:e committee and
other managers OF the campaign in
tend to get in still more telling work.
as they have ambitions to make the
victory even greater than the figures
given in this article by Chairman
Matthews. They assert with con-
thof oh L.,
they are talking about that the VIC
DRY Is already won. but the work of
the campaign does not cease because
Of that but goes merrily on with re-
Moved vigor and additional results.
Republicans throughout the state
are urged by the managers of the
campaign to keep mp the fight until
the polls close and especially to be on
the alert and diligent at the polls,
seeing to it that every Republican
votes and, that Democratic methods
SO frequently employed to thwart the
will OF the people are not practiced
this year to the detriment of the
State and the Republican national,
state and county tickets.
While the bulk of the campaign
work at headquarters is over, yet
there is an activity there in the clos
ing week OF the campaign that is re-
sitting In rounding UP the campaign
period with finishing touches that
will complete its perfection as an
ideal political achievement and es-
pceially systematic and mighty bat
No against the enemy and in behalf
OF the party principles and its nomi-
uces.
Throughout the state meetings are
being held in every county and the
speaking itinerary covers points of
vantage. This active ending of the
campaign is expected to result in a
gratifying increase of the plnralities
already indicated and next Tuesday
will mark glorious triumph for the
Republican party in West Virginia,
Taft and Sherman and Glasscock and
the remainder OF the state ticket
sweeping the State and an over
whelming Republican majority in the
legislature being elected.
