To Brown of Second District is
the Attitude Taken by COL
oneI Roosevelt.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June g.
Congressman Brown awaits the re-
suits of number of county conven-
with little concern or anxiety. He
expects his party to endorse him all
along the line, and that the action of
the conventions next Saturday will
practically settle it so far as his re-
nomination is concerned. That is the
way it is looked at here by politicians
on both sides of the fence. They
concede Browns denomination, and
expect that it will be made without
opposition. That means, of course,
that C. w. Brandon, of Barbour coun-
ty. will in due course of time realize
that the Second district congressmanN
organization is too strong for him,
and that he has chosen an inopportune
time to launch his congressional am
bition. Brandon is spoken of very
highly by many members Of his party,
but they say that neither Brandon nor
any other Democrat could have stood
a chance to prevent Brown from get
ting a nomination for the third sue
cessive time.
While he feels no particular anxiety
over the outcome of his race for the
nomination. Mr. Brown isn't so serene
Of feeling when he meditates upon the
prospect of having no Progressive
party candidate to help him to win
at the election. The attitude of Col
Roosevelt, as expressed by him last
week, was blow to Brown as well as
all other Democrats who are repre-
senting Republican districts. Roose-
velt's failure to attack the Republican
party and his declaration that fusion
was not tabood when the candidate was
acceptable to the Bull Moose, was not
what was expected either by the
Democrats, or by some of the Pro-
gressive representative here for that
matter Among the latter is Represen-
tative Victor Murdoch. 1t can be said
with truth, too, that the new policy
has caused CONSERVATION in the ma
tional Progressive congressional head
quarters, where the work has been
carried on the theory that there would
be a Progressive party candidate in
every congressional district. That
plan, is vetoed by the Roosevelt state
ment, or, at least, that is the inter
probation placed upon it.
In West Virginia, as in many other
states where progressive Republicans
are in large majority when united,
fusion is very likely to mean the re-
