c. D. P. EYES ON
VIRGINIA

Washington, July 20.-On the eve
of the assembling of the Virginia Re-
publican convention at Newport News
there is manifested among the poll
ticians here a lively interest in the
situation in the Old Dominion. The
convention will name candidates for
governor and other state officers to
be voted for at the election this fall.
Although Virginia has heretofore
been strong Democratic state, Re-
publican leaders express confidence
that conditions are decidedly in their
favor owing to dissensions In the
Democratic party. Many well inform
ed politicians declare that the state
Is ripe for political revolution.
State expenditures during Cover
nor Swanson's administration have
largely increased without appreciable
betterment Of conditions. The Re-
publican party, therefore. pledges it
self to insent clause in its platform
providing for decrease in state ex-
penditures. Another issue is the ap-
pointment of state officials by the
governor. The Republicans declare
that these 800 or more appointments
SHOULD be by special act Of the legis-
lature reposed In the hands of the
people, by whom they should be elect
ed at the polls.
Other planks the Republicans will
incorporate in their platforms are
abolition of poll taxes. local option
and reform in the tax law. That the
platform will be along lines of re-
form never before known to the state
is vouched for by party leaders.
A. P. Gillespie of Tazewell can
have the gubernatorial nomination if
he will accept it. Mr.. Gillespie's
strength lies in the fact that he is
an able business man, who has es-
chewed partfzan politics, and is
therefore strong with the independ-
emit voters Of the state. He is an ex-
tensive land owner, which makes
him popular with the farmers, ami
one of the foremost members of the
Virginia bar. He has large Glen
tele among the coal producers Of
southwest Virginia. where he Ia

known as brilliant lawyer. He has
never held any political Office.
1t is understood that President
Taft has personally urged Mr.. Gill
lespie to become the Republican
standard-bearer in the approaching
campaign, and on all sides it is adj
mitted that he would be able to give
the Democratic candidate. whether
the latter is st. George Tucker or
Judge Mann, a hard fight for cleo
ton. Nevertheless there Is much
doubt as to whether Mr.. Gillespie can
be prevailed upon to accept the NOM
ination. Should he decline to allow
his name to be presented to the con-
vention the contest for the head Of
the ticket will be fought out among a
field of favorite sons.
