BOSS WATSON
VERY, VERY BUSY
FOR CORNNE:LL[|. |.
.FAIRMONT MAGNATE
MAKES STRONG APPEAL
For Support Of Democratic
Ticket - Coal Company
Head Very Active.
sncc,al Disp.tcb to the 1ntclligonoor.

FAIRIONT, W. Va, Oct 20-The
activity Of C. W. Watson, head Of the
Fairmont Coal Company, the Consoli-
dated Coal Company, and representa-
tive of the Rockefeller interests in
West Virginia, for the Democratic tick
ct is not confined to the check book
and fountain pen solely. 1t has been
understood, of couse, that Mr. Watson
was the principal financial support Of
the Cornwell movement, as we'll as its
principal organizer and sponsor. The
part that John J. Cornwel played
when he betrayed John T. McGraw IN
the famous legislative session Of 1911,
turned his back upon his former polit-
ical friend and leader, and helped
bring about the nomination Of G. W.
Watson to the United States Senate,
! is fresh in the minds Of a great many
people in this section, and 1t was ex-
pected, therefore, that Mr. Watson
would take an active interest In be-
half Of Cornwell.
Expectation Verified.
This expectation was verified by the
oustinS of John McGraw from the Ma
| tional Committeemanship after he had
been elected to that position by the
delegates to the National Convention.
| Following the orders Of Watson and
Cornwell, the Democratic State Com
mittee overturned the actions Of the
delegates to the National Convention,
ousted McGraw and put c. W. Watson
! in. Not satisfied with this, they
| forced c. c. Lewis, the Democratic
State Chairman, to resign, and tlled
his place with Clem Shaver, a subor-
dinate and supporter Of C. w. Watson,
| and thereafter removed the Democrat
| ic State headquarters from Parkers-
burg, where they had been formally
opened, to Fairmont, where 9. W. Wat
son could give them his personal at
| tention.
! Watson now adds to his activities
by addressing personal letters to vot-
| ers throughout the Monongahela Val
| ley, in which he appeals to them for
support for the Democratic State tick
ct. Mr.. Watson has sent out large
number of letters, and here is copy OF
one Of them:
The Letter.
C. W. WATSON
Democratic National Committeeman
West Virginia
| FAIRMONT, W. Va, Oct. Is, 1916.
Dear Sir-The Democratic ticket in
West Virginia will win this election If
the Democratic vote IS gotten to the
polls. -Four years ago it cost the man
ayers of the party nearly $50, 10000 to
get this vote transported in vehicles to
the polling places. This fall this
money should be spent In other direc-
tions, you good Democrats who are
either precinct captains or automobile
owners looking after the transporta-
ton problem.
Doubtless you have already planned
