CALL CONVENTION
OF REP UbL|CANS
District Committeeman Decide to
Make Nomination on
September II.

Republican delegates from the cities
and counties of the Third Virginia
District will meet in convention in
Richmond on September -. at noon. to
name a party candidate to oppose Cap
tain John Lamb, the Democratic 9nomi-
nee.
This was determined at meeting
of the district committee. held yester-
day afternoon at / o'clock at the office
of District Chairman John G. Luce, in
the Mutual Building. The committee
is composed of the various city and
county chairmen, and was we'll at
tended. NJ. j. Enright is the district
secretary.
The basis of representation in the
each fifty votes or a fraction exceed
electionSof November. 1909, for WIZ
liam Patton Kent for the governorship
of Virginia. This will make a mem
bership OF about fifty delegates.
But little has been said regarding a
probable candidate. The name of for
mer United States Marshal Morgan
Treat, of West Point, has been used
in this connection. but it is stated
that Mr.. Treat would not consider ac-
ceptance, and it Is doubtful If the
CONVENTION would tender it to him.
City Chairman Melvin Flegcnheimer,
of Richmond, has been suggested. but
1t is not thought that sentiment
among the Republicans has at all
'crystallized in. favor Of any one.
