WELLERs HAT IN THE RING

Ovington Z. Weller, the State
leader of the Republicans, has
announced himself as a candidate
for the G.. O. p. nomination in
the primaries next May for the
United States Senate. Whether
Mr.. Weller got into the game this
early to keep any other candi-
dates out. or through a real inten-
ton to stick, is a matter of spec
ulation. He put up young James
A. Gary for Goveror last sum
ner, but as promptly threw him
into the discard when Mayor
foening demanded Harry Nice.
THE Gary candidacy was gener-
ally regarded as an effectual
method OF keeping w. Bladen
Lowndes from entering the field.
AS chairman of the State
Roads Commission Mr.. Weller
made a good record. He was un-
known 70 the public when Cover
nor Goldsborough named him,
but severed all relations with the
Governor when he announced
himself as candidate for Cover
nor four years ago while the Gov
ernor was out of the State and
had not made up his mind
whether to be a candidate again.
MIR. Weller was defeated by Gov
ernor Harrington in the general
election.
He went through the Naval
Academy as boy from Carroll
county, made fortune as a stock
broker in New York with former
u. S. Senator John w. Weeks. of
Massachusetts,, as a partner. and
had retired to rural life in Balti-
more county when Governor
Goldsborough placed him at the
head of the Roads Commission.
He is strong type of business
man, set in his ways, and as good
a hater as he is a fighter. Out in
Baltimore county he was never
known as much of a Republican
in other than an academic way
until he became a part of the
State administration eight years
ago. In 1916 he managed the
candidacy of his friend Weeks for
the Republican nomination for
Prcsident-and the candidacy did
not get very far.
Mr.. Weller will add to tn
gayety of the May primaries. in
any event. but he will go before
the people with the handicap of a
reputation for being a rather cold
blooded politician and his record
as one of the Weller-Jackson-
France triumvirate is not calcu-
lated to enhance him in popular
estimation.
