Political Gossip Of Moment
for Various Dopesters to
Ponder Over
BY THE wATCHMAN

g. w, Otto, well known political
figure in Ohio County. was a visi-
tor in Fairmont yesterday. The
exact purpose Of his visit here was
a little personal business transac-
ton. but he took time to discuss
briefly with the writer some
phases Of the political situation.
In his opinion the question Of
prime importance among the poll
tical leaders at this time is the
matter, Of the Republican nomlna-
ton for United States Senator.
That Senator Sutherland is to
have opposition at the primary in.
August seems a settled PROPOSE
ton. Whether H. c. Ogden Of
Wheeling or some other man from
the northern end OF the state. or
a man from the southern end Of
the state, is to furnish this oppo.
sitioD is not yet officially decided.
Backing Ogden
We were Informed by the Ohio
County leader that Mr.. Ogden is
mot anxious to make the fight this
year. but sentiment in favor Of
him coming out is crystalizing all.
over the state so rapidly at the
present time that within a fort
night. Mr.. Ogden may toss his
hat into the ring, or rather his
friends will have literally taken
his hat and tossed It in for him.
It is a well known fact that G.
W; Otto was a strong Rosenbloom
man and still is for that matter,
and that not SO long ago the
Rosenbloom followers and H. c.
Ogden were at odds. Indicative
of the way In which't the Panhandle
section is lining UP to get Ogden
in the senatorial race, 1t Is said
that the Ratchet has been buried
permanently between these fac
lions.
Something Soon
While there Is nothing to give
out at the present time, political
enthusiasts may nave something
Of a definite nature along the line
of ogden's candidacy in the very
near future.
From the Democratic side Of the
fence, 1t is said that when all has
been sifted down. bill" Chiffon
will very likely be the Demmie
candidate for the United States
Senate. 1t Is rImored that John
J. Cornwell is definitely out OF the
running and that NJ. NJ. Nicely has
passsa up the proposition. There
may be a slip in the dope, but
that's the slate at present.
The tip has gone out that Major
Nicely is going TO be out for Con.
gress from the First District and
will very likely be forced TO fight
out the battle with Ben Rosen-
bloom, who trimmed him off in the
last round.
Atall events, one may expect to
get a right good earful on sure bet
candidates In a very short time.
