William Seymour Edwards Strong
Contestant For Senatorship.

William Seymour Edwards first
cousin of Theodore Roosevelt, is look
ed upon as the probable choice of the
Republican and Progressives in the
West Virginia legislature for the Unit
ed States senatorship.
Edwards was a Progressive in the
recent campaign, but supported the
Republican ticket for all other offices
but the Presidency. His candidacy
was announced prior to the election,
and he was then Endorsed by Chair
man Dawson, of the Progressive
State Committee, and Governor w. L.
Glasscock.
Davis Elkins, son of the late Sena-
tor S. b, Ell1ins, and himself Sena-
tor for % days by appointment of the
Governor after his fathers death, is
Edwards strongest opponent, and in
the event OF failure of Republicans
and Progressiyes to enter a joint eau
Gus will probably secure the support
OF the former.
Other candidates are Isaac T.
