POLITICAL NOTES
FROM SP0TSYlVANIA

There is considerable sentiment in "a
vor OF having one superintendent OF
schools for Spotsylvsnia and Fredericks-
burg. since IL is certain that the county
will not raise the pay Of the superintend-
ent to 5000, as required by the new law
II county or city wants to have a sep
arate superintendent
Both candidates for the House OF Dele
gates were present at the road meeting
Monday, mingling with friends. In
Berkeley district the qualified vote will
be much larger than IL was last fell.
owing, II is said. to the activity OF friend
OF hr.Coleman. who lives IN that district:
the other districts will not, IL is thought,
show much change, CORTLAND and
Chancellor having Increased some while
Livingston has probably decreased.
Mr. Goolrick's friends are iubliant
over the increase In the vote of Freder
icksburg, pointing to the heavy vote
there as an indication OF his strength
st home.
There is little talk of the gubernatorial
fight, but Judge Mann seems to he
slightly In the lead in the county, while
Judge Williams will poll much the larger
vote Tor attorney general.
