LAST SATURDAY'S OOfJViiNTION.

A Large Attendance and an Enthusiastic Meeting,

When chairman Will Johnson called last Saturday's democratic convention to order, th« court room^was comfortably tilled with loyal and enthusiastic democrats ready for duty. A call of the townships, by the secretary. Taylor Thompson, showed that all of the eleven were represented. A brief discussion then ensued as to how the committeo on permanent organization should be selected. A motion by John A. Booe for the chair 1o appoint one from each township, was voted down, and each township was allowed to name its own member of that committee. The chair thon aeaiined places for the townships to meet and select their committeemen on permanent organization and delegates to tho district convention to be held at Terre Haute, on Jan. 3th. The convention then adjourned to meet at 1:30 p. m.

Immediately upon calling the afternoon session to order, Chairman Johneon called for the report of the committee^on permanent organization. The report was, Mike Foley, chairman, and J, M. Keeney and W. D. Harlow, secretaries. Upon being escorted to the chair, Mr. Foley made a rousing good speech which met with round after round of applause from the audience.

Tho chair then called for the rpports of the various townships on their selection of delegates to the Terre Haute convention. The townships then reported as follows: Coul Creek. T. O. Templeton, Mike Foley Wayne, Morris

Herzog: Ripley, James Gollowyay Brown. F. M. Johnson: Scott, Depew My ten: Union. Sam Burkholder, Eli Myers. Asher Wer*, James Brennan. Charley Callehan. W. B. Ilardee, Tom Nolan: Madison. Frank Dunkle: Sugar Creek. Stewart McGuire Franklin, J. Shannon Walnut. James F. Johnson Clark, Wm. M. Rhoads, Geo. W. Corn. According to the basis of representation, the county would be entitled to 'JO delegates, but only 39 being allowed, one delegate is divided between Wayne and

Coal Creek, as has heretofore been the custom, Just before adjournment, M. E. Clodfelter introduced the subjoined resolutions which were read and adopted with great enthnsiasm:

WHJCRKAS, The democratic party in its national platform, upon which it was ushered into power, pledged itself to the repeal of that infamous measure known aa the McKinley law, and to a reformation in the interest of the great masses of the people of the middle states, aad

WHEREAS, There is a measure now pending before the congress of the U. S., known as the "Willson Bill," in its original purity, promised tariff reform in accordance with tho democratic platform and the tariff message of Grover Cleveland, president of the United States, and

WHEREAS, There is a strong effort beinj? made by certain monied classes as against tho laboring masses to defeat tho tariff policy upon which the democracy was restored to power in Congress and elected the President of tho United States.

THKRKFOKK, HF. IT RESOLVED, By the democracy of Montgomery county in convention assembled, that we as democrats are in favor of taking no steps backward on the question of tariff reform, and we will kold our representatives to a strict account for any deviation from tho principles of tariff reform as announced in the platform of princioles upon which Grover Cleveland was elected President of tho United States.

We further express ourselves as fully satistied with the course pursued by Grover Cleveland as President of the United States and recognize his course the highest evidences of statesmanship, and we tirmly believe that his policy will inure to ths best interest of the people of the United States.

any other and there is alto abetter profit to the grower. One repreeentativo present stated that his factory made a contract wiih tho growers before tho planting season, so that he knew just what his stuff to be furniehed the factory would bring him.

He said last year his factory paid tho grower 20 cents per bushel for tomatoes this price holding good through the entire season, according to the terms of ttie contract. From 250 to 500 bushels per acre is the common yeild of tomatoes

A committee consisting of Mayor Bandel, H.F. King, P. S. Kennedy, Wm. H. Hurley, Squire Flanigan, Capt. H. II. Talbott and James Mack was appointed to solicit stock and transact such other business as is necessary to the consumation of the enterprise. The meeting was presided over by Mayor Bandel, and he became so enthustic over the enterprise as to remark that if ho had the money no stock company would be required as he would put up the factory on his own account. Thero is no doubt but that the industry would pay. The question is to secure it. Let everybody go to work and the factory will be established.

John R. Courtney, Insane. On Monday a commission of iunacy was hold in tho case of Johu Il.Couitney, tho attorney. Ho was declared of unsound mind, and on Thursday Sheriff Davis removed him to the asylum at Indianapolis. Courtney seemed to be perfectly rational at times and tho time of his going was kept from him until tho eve of his departure. A few days ago erysipelas broke out on his face, which not only disfigured him but also proved a source of annoyance. On Wednesday he was down town and was taken with a tit of insanity on the street. Although it has been known by the family and intimate tiriends that for months past he has been subject to temporary aberration of the mind, his true

condition has only been knowu by the

How For The flannin? Factory, There was an enthusiastic meeting at the small court room Wednesday afternoon to discuss the canning factory project. The meeting was fairly well attended by both farmers and citizens, Representatives were present by request of Mayor Bandel, froui t.vo different a to do in a of it a in in Indiaua. They explained the workings of such an industry in detail to the satisfaction of all present, together with the profits resulting therefrom, both to the grower and the manufacturer.
