1t is not difficult matter to get a line

The Fourth district which tripped on

1912 and 1914 with the gallant young
Moss leading it, may reasonably be
expected to stand pat with the no less
popular Harry c. woodward carrying

Fight In Two Districts.
AS the situation stands, the Repub-
lican leaders are claiming that their
party will win those four congress
slonal districts with hardly a strug-
gle. They expect the only real fights
against them to be made in the First
and the Sixth districts, where Nicely
and Littlepage, respectively, claim to
enjoy the advantage of being in the
harness. The Republican managers
concede no such claim, but do con-
cede that they will have to make the
most aggressive fights in those two
districts. Fact of the matter is, the
lights on, and it is aggressive. The
district represented by Littlepage is
probably harder row for a Democrat
10 hoe than the First, though the
First is Republican. In both those
districts the Republicans have candi-
dates who were popular selections of
the party. DIR. Goodby who. as a can
didate for the State Senate caused the
political star of Ex-Governor MaCCor-
kle to set permanently, basks in the
fame of that accomplishment, which
proves more than a raft of oral ar
gument what he can do in the way Of
running. Col. Thomas W. Fleming,
of Fairmont, who has it in mind TO
measure the length of the manly po-
litical figure of MajorINeely on the
mat. has long ago showed to the good
people of the First that as n success
full campaigner he is no SLOUGH and is
entitled to rank abreast OF the best
of them. a
In getting line on the situation
in the First and Sixth districts 1t
should not be forgotten that the two
times Nicely was elected he scratched
in on minority vote Of the district.
Littlepage did the same in 1914, but
in 1910 rode the Democratic tidal
