Daugherty Forces Plot Delegates in Columbus to Aid Mannington
A Columbus political delegation favored Mannington for secretary of state while Governor Nash heads the group and opposes Mannington in favor of Laylin. Reports claim a plan to push Mannington’s national delegates, backed by Kinney and allies, to threaten McKinley and sway the convention. Daugherty supporters claim two fifth district delegates and two more from the tenth district. Defiance stood against such tactics.
