NORFOLK COUNTY'S
TANGLED POLITICS
Peculiar Condition Exists Be-
tween Straightouts and
Fusionists.
Especial to The Times-Dispatch. ]

Norfolk. Va. July 14.-While Norfolk
city politics is beginning to bubble,
conditions in Norfolk County. where
tho Straightouts and Fusionsts usually
make things hum, are at a standstill.
In the county there Is peculiar
condition, which probably has never
been known before in Virginia. The
Straightouts will support for the
lower house Of the General Assembly
Captain c. j. Duke and DR.. L. C. Fere-
bee, while the Fusionists probably will
work for the election of f. c. Baker
and Curtis l.. Old. The latter is at
present q member OF tho House from
Norfolk County.
Captain Duke, one Of the Straight
out candidates, was deposed as harbor-
master by the Fusionists, over the pro-
tests OF number of shipping indus
tries. the press and strong public
sentiment. He probably will prove the
strongest candidate the Democrats
could name, and with any kind of q
fair deal he should win. Il. c. Baker.
who probably will be Curtis Odds run
ming mate on the Fusion ticket, Is a
son of Captain Baker. who succeeded
Captain Duke as harbor-master.
The Fusionists, 1t appears, are de-
termined not only to keep Captain
Duke from following his vocation, but
are also determined to keep him out
OF politics. And they are using the
Baker family to accomplish both. It's
a case of the Bakers against the Dukes
and the Fusi9nists appear TO have the
upper hand at present
NO date has been set for holding the
Democratic primary to select nominees
for the General Assembly. The county
committee Is controlled by the Fusion
lists. and so far not word has been
uttered that might give the least idea
as to when the primary will be held.
In Portsmouth j. Davis Reed, former
Mayor of the city, has been nominal ed
to succeed w. G. Parker. one OF the
oldest and best known members of the
Legislature. Mr.. Parker made re-
markable run, considering the line
up against him. The fight caused un-
usual bitterness. \ secret fight be-
cause OF Mr.. Parker's religious belief
was made against him, which stirred
up considerable hard feeling in Ports
mouth.
Mr.. Reed. as Mayor of Portsmouth.
made an excellent official Because of
his determined stand against corpora
tons. he was called the Backbone
Mayor" and it is predicted that when
he gets to the Legislature he will make
name for himself.
In Norfolk conditions are unsettled.
Because of the split between the or
ganization and tho so-called Good
Government faction-more recently
known as the Citizens party-there
will be no primary. The Citizens
party will not go into a primary with
the Democrats, or organization forces.
The Citizens have nominated c. a.
Woodward and w. p. Cousins. but the
organization has not centred upon its
candidates. 1t is highly probable how
ever. that Daniel Coleman Will be re-
turned. and Benjamin y. Banks may
also go back There Is some talk, how
ever. of selecting some other candidate
to oppose Banks. The friends of Mer
rift r. Cooke. former representative
from Norfolk. are urging him TO enter
the race.

Property Improved.
Tho Council Committee on Docks,
River and Harbor will make an inspec-
ton OF the Clyde Line wharf, between
Ash Street and Gillies Creek next Tues
day. with a view to ascertaining whe-
ther it will be advisable for the city to
purchase the property to be used for
Il city dock or for other purposes. This
action was taken at the committee
meeting last night. in accordance with
resolutions passed by Council asking
for a report on the property. 1t now
belongs to the Old Dominion Develop
inent Company.
\ resolution from the Board of Pub
lie Interests was read, asking that the
committee make Investigations to as
certain the cost Of improving the pres
ent city dock. with larger locks, new
wharf houses and landings
The resolution states that there is
reason to believe that the boats of the
OLD Dominion Company and other largo
vessels would dock there If the facili-
ties were adequate, and that the citi-
zens of Richmond would be saved about
S37,500 a year in that case by reason
of the fact that the City Dock Is mile
nearer the centre of the city than the
docks now in use.
