With the statewide primary date.
June 6. less than five months away,
the political situation is daily grow
ing more interesting and candidates
and thei friends now are about the
most active set OF men on earth. The
leading party tickets are gradually
assuming definite form. Especially
is this true OF the Republican, one
or more candidates having been an
nounced for each office on the state
ticket. Less interest is being taken
by the Democrats. apparently, as
but few names are mentioned in con
nection with places on the Demo
cratic state ticket. The next few
weeks. however. doubtless will bring
forth a~spirants.

One OF the most interesting polif.
ical incidents of the past week. es-
pecially from a Democratic stand
point was the suggestion OF Col. W.
w. Beall. OF Wellsburg. as a possible
candidate for the United States SEN
ate, on the Democratic ticket. About
two hundred prominent Brooke coun-
~ residents were present. Mention
OF his name in connection with the
high honor was greeted with hearty
applause, but the Significance Of the
incident IL in the fact that although
Col. Beall was present he neither
confirmed nor denied the suggestion.
Col. Beall formerly was treasurer
OF the state Democratic executive
committee. and has been a notable
figure at YER Democratic onven
ton In the past twenty or more
years. Two years & he vas a strong
candidate for the Democratic nomina-
ton for commemorative. but
lost out at the Parkersburg owen
ton through methods which he
claimed were outrageous and unfair.
He limited AZ the time that these
were prompted largely BY Senator
William r. Chiffon.
II has been believed generally that
Senator Chiffon would have no on.
position for the nomination for re-
election. Judging from the Welsburg
incident however. IL would appear
that he is likely to have opposition.
and strong opposition. too. I'm the per
son OF Col. Wylie w. Beall.

II became known from an entirely
reliable source this week that a COM
promise between two candidates for
prosecuting attorney had been pro-
posed. but that IL had been refused
by the man to whom the proposal was
made. Whether or not the candidate
who sought the compromise will throw
HIS support TO some other for the
promise OF the assistant prosecuting at
torneyship. is not known, but such a
move is not improbable.

Quite a few "jolts" were experienced
in political circles during the week just
passing that may have considerable
effect on the result OF the Republican
primaries June 8. Organizations are
being formed each day TO the D
OF some favorite, and in others two or
candidates have agreed to help
n another to the d~isparagement OF
the third party.
Probably the most striking event OF
the week, locally. was the dismissal
OF Chief Deputy Assessor George $.
Biggs. a candidate for assessor. by his
chief. w. A. Hanke. assessor. who is
also a candidate for reelection.
However. friends OF 10Th men feel
that the break was bound TO come
sooner OF later. and while II may have
an effect on the nomination. vet Il is
not anticipated hat II, will have n
effect on the general election. Repub-
licans. as a whole. will rally to the fore

hard man to beat in any fight.
