The Big Sandy news., 1912-07-12


Charley 0senton, the Fayette war
rior. occupied a peculiar niche DUR
ing the convention at Baltimore. He
was one of the original Clark hoos-
ters from West Virginia, and the
delegates from his home county
were early instructed for the Speak
er. But Osenton has been a Bry-
an man for the last 16 years, and
he was one of the West Virginians
who refused to desert the Nebras-
kan when the national committee
and the convention late selected
Judge Alton B. Parker for tempor-
ary Chairman of the convention
osenton remained loyal to Clark
from beginning to end. but he de-
serted the organization from his
native state when it chose to go
to Parker when opposed by the
Commoner. He fought vallantly for
the Nebraskan among the West
Virginia delegates, and on the vote
mustered six votes for his choice
out of the 16 representatives from
the Panhandle State.
West Virginia Republicans are
facing the same crisis they exper-
fenced in 1908, when there were
two Republican state tickets in the
field. This year they safely round
ed the curves in the nomination of
a state ticket. the initial statewide
primary ending with probably more
satisfaction than had been given
for a dozen years. The Republican
prospects Immediately after the
nomination of state ticket were en-
couraging to the leaders. Then
came Chicago.

only State that compares with West

ginia, whose coal areas in the south
western part of the State are COZ

the production and marketing of
the product of both States being
similar. Neither State has any
well-developed local markets, and at
least 80 per cent of the output is
shipped to distant points for con
