Gallia Republicans Hear Jenkins Speak in Courthouse Meeting
About 20 Gallia County Republicans gathered at the Gallia County Courthouse Friday night for a partisan meeting headlined by Col. Thomas A. Jenkins of Ironton. Jenkins praised the two party system and urged committee members to strengthen their parties, framing the event as a push to energize the party amid local factional tensions. Oakley C. Collins, state senator, spoke on increased local government funding and road improvements, while the gathering reflected a split within the GOP, with the so called Cherrington faction seen as dominant in committee control.
