GLASSCOCK Nominee on the Republican Tlckct for Governor of West Vlrglnlu. OHIO COUNTY IS SOLIDLY LINED UP Nomination of Glasscock for Governor Ends Factional Fight There. WHEELING, Se^t. 29?Perhaps "there was no county In ..the state where the late complications that ex isted In the Republican party were so pronounced as in Ohio, and where, at one time the differences seemed to he hopeless of seUelment. Since the nomination of Hon. vv. E. Glass cock, however, and the elimination of both Mr. Swisher and Mr. Scherr, the opposing elements have swung into line for the new candidate for governor, which promises a solid line up of the party strength for the en tire state ticket. Many Republicans who had announced their intention of voting for the Democratic candi date for governor have openly ex pressed themselves as being satisfied with the selection of Mr. Glasscock, and will not only vote for him but get out and work for Ills success at the polls. Naturally the frank and ope.i sup port that the Intelligencer is giving to Mr. Glasscock, has had much to do with the peace and unanimity that has been restored to the once distracted rank and file of the 'Republicans of Wheeling and Ohio county. If the nomination of Mr. Glasscock has ac complished this in this section of the state4here can l>e no question about the solidification of the party In other communities where the distractions of factional" differences have not been so pronounced and complicated as they were In Ohio county. One of the most prominent Repub licans in this city, and who was op* posed to both of the former contend ing candidates for governor said to day there was no question about the entire acceptability of Hon. W. E. Glasscock as the Republican nominee for governor) "I state this," ssld this gentleman, "because I know It to be the truth, and for the reason wc all know his record as a faithful and honest supporter of the party princi ples in tills state as enunciated in the several platforms of 1900 and 1904. It was the policies set forth in the platforms upon which White and Dawson were elected and which so cured the most substantial victories for the Republicans in West Virginia. There was no stronger champion of the tax reform laws which have been written Into our statutes than the Hon. William E. Glasscock. We know that he Is safe on that ques tion, and will do everything In his power to preserve the integrity of the new, tax laws inaugurated by the Re publican party. The Democrats have attacked these measures, and if given the power will do their beat to nullify their operation if not totally destroy them. That is why we are strong for Glasscock in Ohio conty, and that Is one of the reasons why the Repub licans of the northern panhandle OTlI rally to his support ns one man and worlc for his election."
