The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1910-08-06
BOTH CANDIDATES ARE
CONFIDENT OF WINNING
THE PRIMARY FIGHT
CONTINUED from First Page,


his campaigning and speaking for
BRYAN and his zeal to bring out Demo
cratic votes for the Nebraskan he ne
elected to get his own vote trans
ferred from one ward to another, he
did not remember this oversight untli
too late to cast his vote.
1t lis understood. however. that
Judge Wickham will attempt 10 prove
Saturday night that Capt. Lamb al
vssed voters in the Third District to
go fishing instead of voting for bryan
ana that the Henrieo Jurist Will ask
whether Capt Lamb went fishing as
he advised others to do.
The letharsy compliance OF by the
candidates and the voters has peen
shaken off, In q measure. ana stiF-
ring windup In expected.
Captain Lamb said Saturday to a
reporter for The Virginian that he
felt confident he would be renomi-
mated In the primary Tuesday by a
large majority. He believes he VIII
carry Richmond by larger majority
than In any other contest. and that
the vote throughout the counties VIII
be large enough to quiet the ambitions
of Judge Wiekham or any other as
pirant two years hence.
Ever Loyal.
His friends declared Saturday that
II was akin to absurd to charge
Democrat of Captain Lambs fidelity
and long service with disloyalty to the
Demoerathic party. They maintain
that II thera was any disioyalty In his
failure to vote for Bryan 1t was to
himself in failing to get his ballot
transferred instead of to the Demo-
cratic party. Supporters OF the rep
resentative assert that he has made
a good congressman and served the
district we'll and that he lis at the
best stage of his usefulness right now
and should be returned.
Judge Wickham and his support
ers, however, maintain that Captain
Lamb has not shown the energy ana
progressive spirit which should char
acterize the representative from the
Third district. that he has outsrown
his usefulness and has cast several
votes which he has not been able to
satisfactorily explain to them. The
old soldier bill seems to stick in the
craw" OF large number of voters,
who declare Captain Lamb has
thrown them down" Judge Wick
ham has had the active support OF q
number of State senator's. who know
and admire him for his work in the
Legislature. and has made very
strong showing. and such as to give
unrest to Captain Lamb and his sup
porters. it Is said, during the last days
of teh campaign.
ssWill Carry Richmond"
The Henrico Jurist was as calm ana
cool as an iceberg Saturday afternoon.
He declared no one knew what he
knew. except himself. and that he
would carry the city OF Richmond.
Captain Lambs stronghold, by large
majority. Judge Wickham was all
confidence and smiles. He said he
had been receiving assurances all
week that the vote for him would be
heavier than he had believed. and
that the defeat of Captain Lamb was
now a matter OF hours.
