which inspired the common enemy to
hope that there would be breach in

sportsmen. there are none to surpass
the resources and recuperative pow
ers OF the Republicans OF West vir-

But in our contests those con-
cerned should play fair with the
party, and keep in mind that the or
ganization is greater than the per-
sonal ambitions OF q man or a group
Of men. AL factions and interests,
SO far as 1t Is possible. should be rec
ognized. and the aim OF all should
be to do simple justice in the name
OF the party. With that thought in
view. 1t has occurred to me that In
the award OF the honors Of represent
ing the party ut the great Chicago
convention, there offers itself to the
party in the six congressional dis
tricts and in the state delegate con-
vention to be held, the opportunity
to SO distribute these commissions
as to give recognition to various
party groups and thus help to pro,
mote the harmony and accord that
will be needed after the ticket Is
placed in the field. am sure that
the rank and file Of the party will
endorse such a Just and patriotic
sentiment. and would be highly
gratifed to see the party leaders "a
vorably act upon It,"
Chairman sherrard declined tt
suggest the names of any men tt
carry out this idea. He named q
familiar list of names that has beer
printed in party papers In connec.
ton with national delegates. He
neglected to mention his own name
but as matter OF fact, Col. Sherrad's
name has been frequently mentioned
in connection with the states big
