HuBBARD,s ANNOUNCEMENT.

In our school days we learned the
sentence; Ceasar having crossed the
Rnbicon, Pompey prepared for battle,
/ 3 some time It has been known by
the close friends OF Hon. Wm.fP.
Hubbard that he was very seriously
considering the question of becoming
b candidate for the position OF United
States Senator from West Virginia.
ut has been an open secret for some
months that the present occupant OF
the place would not be reelected
without a contest. Numerous men
have been discussed In connection
with the race, many conferences have
been held, the wishes Of the people
have. been sought and finally the can.
stdidacy OF Mr. Hubbard Is the result.
Vie will have much more support than
many people are aware of. His friends
and admirers are legion throughout
the. State and he asks directly that
metropolitan masses nave a chance
to express themselves in primary
elections in the various senatorial
districts on the question OF selecting
their candidate for the high position
Epf United States Senator. The people
4wil1 mot be slow in answering his
call. they will quickly take up the
idea and demand that they have a
chance to vote on the question. Such
ii plan will prevent factlonal fights
over candidates for state Senate aud
the House OF. Delegates. If 1t Is I'M
aderstooa that II the members of the
Legislature stand bound by the vote
b the people in thier respective coun.
Sities land senatorial districts there
need be no rending OF the party and
limiting of the ticket in the final cleo
ton. The people have n right to II
voice in the selection OF NIL candi:

most popular thing possible in bring
Ing talis case directly to the masses.
OF MT. Hubbard's qualifications and
fitness for United States Senator. It is
hardly necessary for lis to speak. He
iss known everywhere as one Of the
very nblest men in this or any other
& stnte. He Is a strong lawyer. a COOL
business man. a forcefl speaker. 4
statesman Of high order. That he
would at once stand in the front rank
as an ! United States Senator, goes
without saying. He is a natural
