HEADQUARTERS

CAMPAIGNS-FRE QUARTERS

Parkersburg. July 2O.-It is pos
sible that Parkersburg will be the
headquarters of the three guberna-
torial candidates. during the COM
ing campaign-in fact not only pos
sible, but from late developments,
entirely probable.
II is practically conceded that
should Louis Bennett, Of Weston.

here. Charleston on the Kanawha.

chance for prosecuting attorney.
Should Mr.. Bennett be chosen the
assurance is given that one OF the
first acts OF the Democracy will be
the opening OF an active campaign
from headquarters established here.
1t was made known Saturday
Il at the new state committee re-
Gently named at the Swisher state
Charleston will meet here Tuesday
to take up this and other matters.
Always alive to the interests OF
Parkersburg and his district, Con
gressman Harry c. Woodyard, who
was named as a member of that
committee, though he had refused
to complete his term of service WIFE
the old, yesterday wrote to friends
here asking them to assist him IN
fight to land headquarters here.
Mr.. woodward suggested that he
would have more force in his argn-
ment before the committee II he
could offer free rooms, suitable, j"
this city. Local friends immediat"E
took the matter up. and ii is under
stood were in a position to oner
ample quarters in the Union Trust
building. The chances are very n.
vorable for the landing of the
Swisher headquarters.
As to the ticket named at the
court house headed by Arnold c.
Scherr. the whole state will be their
headquarters, with a strong central
working force located at some cen
trail and accessible point, probably
also ParkersburG. A meeting OF
the new state committee, named by
the convention. will be held here at
the Chancellor hotel this evening. IT
is probable that Mr.. Scherr ana
leaders. aside from committeeman
will attend The plans for the cam
paign will be taken up and dis
cussed and headquarters may be
located. 1t is said that free ana
commodious quarters in the Smith
mock VIII be offered to the com
mittee. AS Parkersburg has already
been practically determined upon
as-main headquarters of the Scherr
Republican state committee the
free quarters offered by the city~~hl
no doubt clinch the matter.
