Endorsements Shift in Keyser and Davis Speculation
The article notes a near unanimous endorsement of Senator Elkins at the Keyser convention, with only three votes against, suggesting strong party support in his district. It also debunks a Deer Park telegram claiming Henry Gassaway Davis would enter a second congressional race, calling the gossip fake and marking Uncle Gassaway as unlikely to run if his son-in-law’s interests are at stake.
