GOVERNOR SEES HIS DUTY
Special Session Of Legislature Will Be
Convened To Enact Primary


Charleston, w. Va, April AL
though 1t is reported that strong
efforts have been made 10 get Govern
or Glasscock to change his mind about
calling the legislature In extraordi-
nary session it Is also said that he has
informed those opposing his plan and
state wide primary that he proposes
converting the legislature at an early
date. Since the governor has stated
that It would be folly for an executive
to call the legislators together If he
was not reasonably certain it would
pass a measure proposed. it is be-
iieved Governor Glasscock has been
given the assurance that a majority of
the republican members of the senate
viii vote tcr primary bill and since
the house is known to be in favor of
one, by a great majority. it will be up
to the democrats to assist the republi-
cans in putting through the measure.
Probable Lineup.
II is figured that not more than sew
en- and probably not over five republi-
can senators win oppose state wide
primary. The first five are Hatfield,
Craig, Coffman, White, Johnson, with
Meredith and Hearne in the doubtful
column, although most estimates
place Meredith solidly against it and
Hearne in the democratic column.
This would leave Sutherland, Eng
land, Hocd, Flynn, Grimes, Smith
of Cabell; Smith of Roale. and
Shinn as certain for primary. The
democratic side Is also figured very
close, Senator's French, Preston, Phil
lips, Fisher, Bland Peterkin, with
Smith of Raleigh Woods and Kidd in
the doubtful list
1t is believed that the governor will
also include the Virginia Debt bill in
his call leaving it up 30 the Legislature
to treat the matter, as it may desire
without any suggestion of the COVER
nor
Of the five senators here Hatfield,
Craig, Johnson, Sutherland, and
Smith of Cabell. the first three are OPP
posed to an extra session. Former
Governor A. B. White, arrived We'd

that politics had anything to do with
his visit.

from points outside the State and in
distant cities. There are several rea.
sons for the great interest taken In
this big contest. The, principal one,
as stated before, is that there never

are certainly sensible rewards for the
ladies and their friends.
Prizes Are Valuable.

expensive proposition to award three

three Efgin watches. The West Vir-

one well worth tller money-and the
young ladies from this part of the
State should moi t.fail TO take advantage,
