made in two hours. This past
summer over good pike with
newly graded hills the farmer
made the trip in thirty minutes

From mud to hard roads, from

ANNOUNCEMENT was made in Wash
ington last week-West Virginia Repub-
lican politicians usually start their CAM
paigns from Washington-by Sherman
Denham that Governor Hatfield will be a
candidate for the United States Senate
from West Virginia. AS Mr.. Denham
and his associate. Virgil L. Highland, are
regarded as political managers of Cover
nor Hatfield, this may be taken as Official
notice that the Governor will 90 into the
fight for senatorial honors. 1t will be a
bitter struggle, with the issue very un-
certain, and il will be more OF fight tor
and against Hatfield than contest be-
tween the Governor and A. B. White or
any other candidate who may turn up.
The Governors own forceful methods
and the boldness and resourceiulness OF
his political managers will probably be
well offset by the fierce opposition OF his
enemies, and if the campaign develops
the animosities that are already so ap-
parent and increases the bitterness now
in existence we may look for very excit-
ing times between now and next June,
when the State wide primaries will be
held.
