TOM PATTERSON.
Former Resident of Crawfordsville Goes To the United States Senate.
A dispatch from Denver says: "The joint caucus of the fusion members of the legislature to-night decided to support Thomas M. Patterson, of Denver, for United States senator to succeed E. O. Wolcott. There arc ninety-one fusionists in the legislature, including Democrats, Populists and Silver Republicans, and of these eighty-seven were in the caucus. Mr. Patterson received seventy-four votes on the first ballot. Surprise was occasioned early this evening by the announcement that ex-Governor Chas. S. Thomas, who has been Mr. Patterson's leadingopponent, had withdrawn from the race. His name did not go before the caucus The total vote of the legislature on the joint ballot is one hundred. "Thomas M. Patterson was horn in Ireland Nov. 4, 1840. With his (taretits he came to America in 1853. After a short residence in New York the family removed to Crawfordsville, Tnd., where Thomas worked for some time in printing oflices. He was educated at
Asbury (now DePauw) University. He enlisted at the first call for troops, but served only a few months on account of poor health. He read law and practiced his profession for a time in Indiana. In 1872 he went to Denver and formed a partnership with Charles S. Thomas, who, it is uninteresting to note, was his leading opponent in the senatorial contest just closed. This partnership lasted a year, but was resumed in 1879 and continued until 1890. In 1S74 Mr.
THE CRAWFOTtPSYILLE WEEKLY JOURNAL.
Patterson was chosen territorial delegate to congress and greatly aided in securing statehood for Colorado. In 1870 he was sent back to congress, this time as a representative. At the end of his term Mr. Patterson resumed the practice of law in Denver. In 1890 he purchased a controlling interest in the I Rocky Mountain Xt m, to the conduct of which he has since very largely devoted his time. In 1892 Mr. Patterson was a delegate to the national Democratic convention, in which he made a fight for the adoption of a free silver plank. Being unsuccessful, he led the bolt against Cleveland which carried the state of Colorado for Weaver. In 1896 he was a delegate to the Populist national convention, which indorsed
Bryan, and in 1900 he was permanent chairman of the convention of that party. It is understood he now considers himself a Democrat. Mr. Patterson is second vice-president of the Associated Press. "Mr. Patterson in 18U3 was married to Miss Kate Grafton, a granddaughter of Alexander Campbell, the founder of the Christian church. They have one daughter, Mrs. R. C. Campbell, of Denver."

Charles A. Howells Plays the Part of the Arrant Scoundrel.
Charles A. Howells is a native of North Carolina who came to Indiana several years ago aim married Miss Wilson, of I'utman county. She had some property and Kowells mismanaged it for her. Finally they sold out in I'utman and coining hero bought a farm west of the city in the Alf Lookabiil neighborhood. A few days ago this was sold to //.ick Williams for $S50 cash and a piece of property in Wave'and. The money was banked and last. week it, was arranged for Howells t.o buy a sixty acre farm in
Putniaii county. The deal was consummated and Howells came into town last Thursday ostensibly fur tie purpose of paying for the land, lie drew
he has relatives. II is whereabouts were later ascertained and an attorney went to Marion to see him. lie thera learned that Howells had left for North Carolina with the intention of staying there. Howells' wife and three small children are left in very straightened circumstances.
Electric Line Talk.
Tu tin1 K'litor of The Jounml. Recently was in picturesque Ripley to a a to A a a a it zens in electric road talk. I was surprisea to hear that they had a man there who said it would kill the town that trade would all go to Crawfordsville. Well, tnose town-killing pessimists are e\ery where. We have them here who say if you builu a railroad or electric line to Indianapolis that trade will j1!) to Indianapolis, Lutdoes it'?
Now an electr lit:©' from here to Yountsville, Alamo, Bluff Mills and Wavelai.d is worth more to the citizens of Ripley and Brown t-.wnships than a railroad possibly eoukl be, because it is quicker, cheaper and safer traveling. Fsp: eially ought every citizen of Alamo and Ripley township be enthusiastically in favor of it anu would doubtless vote a subsidy for it. Alamo must eventually be the most important-town on this interurban chain that will so: encii cle the county, because it will be the junction for a very important line branching off to Wallace, Kingman, ana the coal field. It will be the rejuvenation of Alamo. Business opportu ity attracts business. Facilities for rapid at cheap travel *,nd the purchase of the essential commodities of the home will beget a rapid development of business at every such place. The Shades, with its wild and romantic surroundings, will eventually bo a most enticing resort for summer tourists off three lims of railroad, who will spend their muney ireely for the eggs, jersey cream and other luxuries of the farmers. They will come by hundreds when accommodations are furnisheJ, because facilities for travel are rapid and cheap. Numerous cottages will bo built for those desiring that calm solitude so inviting and essential to the busy business man, nerve worn and exhausted. j?\ large modern hotel will be built and men of means and leisure, with their families, will enjoy supreme delight in the rustic surroundings. The interurban lines will add immensely to the educational dvantage of Crawfordsville and the towns through which they pass. Pupilso. high school and students of college can come in on morning trains from all the adjacent towns and return in the evening. And should tho dawning of the twentieth century arouse the savants that legislate for the interests of Wabash college from the damaging somnolency and admit women to educational privilege, then anew impetus will be given to business and the morning trains will come in loaded with rosy rivals for inlellectualitv and the young man will have to "look to his laurels" and the town have anew growth, (jive us the interurban lines.

A Topeka man lost a small opal fet. out of his ring and went to the jeweler to have it replaced. Returning home he found the lost set and. putting it in his mouih for safe keeping, hurried back to the jeweler's to have that set used instead of the new opal. Rushing into the store he said: "Say, I've found 'he old set, so don't use that new one." He attempted to remove tho stone from his mouth, gave a gulp, looked sheep ish. and said: "I guess you'll have to use tho new stone

The Commissioners Will Grant the Franchises lor the Electric Railways.
Tuesday was the day set by the county commissioners for the final hearing on the franchises on the proposed electric railways. The committee of the Commercial Club presented the following report on the assembling of tin: board: "To the board of commissioners of Montgomery county, the franchise committee of the Crawfordsville Commercial Club begs to submit, the. following: "On January 8th last, this committee appeared before you asking for a delay of at least thirty days in granting the franchises offered for inter-urban electric. roads, in order that proper comparison might be made between the franchises offered hero and those
the $800 from the bank but left on the granted in other counties for similar him. having long ago passed their 50th early afternoon train for Marion where I purpose. That such changes as might
be necessary could be made in-the provisions of said franchises, and that such new provisions as were found desirable could be incorporated therein. "The interest, of the Commercial Club in this case was the common interest of all residents of Montgomery county in any matter of so great importance to its citizens, and so closely effecting their welfare. "It was the object of the Commercial Club and of this committee not to oppose the granting of said franchises, nor to throw impediments in their way in order to defeat them, but it was its solo intention to co-operate with this board to the end that the franchises granted should contain all proper provisions for the protection of the interests of Montgomery county and of its citizens.
v.
"1 response to our request for at least thirty days' time for consideration of these important matters we were granted one week. "Being actively engaged in business, and with the demands already upon our time which that involves, this committee deems one week entirely inadequate to enter into this matter as thoroughly and exhaustively as itf was its intention to do. "The Commercial Club, however, in special session for the consideration of this matter, and on motion of this committee, endorsed the granting of these franchises, provided the interests of Montgomery county and of its citizens were properly safeguarded. "As to the proper provisions for these safeguards, this committee, boing unable in the time granted to give the matter full and thorough consideration, has nothing to offer, leaving them entirely to this honorable board and its able attorneys. "J. C. BARNHILL. "CHAS. li. LAUBY, "Grco. W. GRAHAM. "Franchise Committee of the Crawfordsville Commercial Club." Crawfordsville, Ind., Jan. 15, 1901.
The gentlemen asking the franchises were present and spent the morning discussing what additions should be made to the agreements they had stipulated in their petitions. Several paragraphs were inserted, relating in the most part to road rights. The county attorneys made the liability of the railroads for highway drainage, farm crossings, and other matters very explicit and binding. It was set down that the innermost rail should not come within ten feet of the graveled center of the road. It was likewise provided that there should be no rate discriminations by the roads one way as against the other.
This being a special session of the board, no official action was taken but the commissioners expressed their intention of granting the franchises at the next regular meeting on Monday, Feu. 4.

IN LIFE'S TWILIGHT.
Citizen Passes
Cornelius Morrison, well known throughout the county as one of the early settlers, died at his homo near Garfield, at an early hour last Monday. Death was not unexpected and its coming was not sudden: Bright's diseae, which resulted in death, first manifested itself more than two years ago, but not until about eight months since did it become alarming. Since that time he has been a most patient sufferer.
Cornelius Morrison was born June 10th, 1^22, near Adelphi, Ross county, Ohio, and was left motherless when a child. Came to Montgomery county in 1x4-1, and was married Oct. 29. 184t5 to Louisa M. McKey, who still survives
anniversary of married life To them were born eight children, six sons and two daughters, Will II., Alfred, Frank, Taylor, Ben F., and Charles, deceased, and Mrs. Wilson Sands, of Darliugton, and Mrs. ij. M. lurry, of this city. A granddaughter, Mrs. William B. Paul, of Arapahoe, o. T., spont many of her childhood days in the home of her aged grandfather. By his death the community ban lost one of its best citizens, the family a kind father who did much for the future comfort, of his children. The funeral was held at the homestead at ten o'clock Wednesday morning. Interment at the Odd Fellows' cemntery at
A Birthday Dinner.'
Monday at the old homo of Elder Matthias Vancleave, on the spring hill, a birthday dinner was held in honor of the 52nd birthday of Mrs. J. E. Hunt, the daughter of Mr. Vancleave, who was born in the old home. Uncle Matty had lived here for over thirty years, and as tho old home in soon to bo sold the children met to have a good time before the property is disposed of. William Vancleave now occupies the old home of his father, and at the noon hour over fifty relatives and friends sat down to a feast of good things. Elder Oliohant was present and conducted religious services and the day was spent in singing, story telling and reminiscent talks of the old days, when the children were at home. It was a very pleasant occasion and will long be remembered by those present,
As to Temperance Legislation. There has been a very general im-prest-ion that no anti-saloon legislation would be urged during this session but this idea may be a mistaken one The superintendent of Indiana's anti-saloon league said Monday that tho legislature may be asked toamend tho Nicholson law in those places where the test of use has proved its weakness. As yet these amendments hare been merely outlined but it is more than likely that tho anti-saloon clement in the state will demand certain changes. Any attempt to make more stringent laws to govorn the sale of liquors will bo fought by a very strong lobby of the men to be affected.
iv A a The alum baking powder makers are making the most of their opportunity. Their combination is now endeavoring to gather the grocers into its fold to aid in disposing of its goods. Whero the grocer will permit, they will put his name upon the package, when it is sold as the grocer's own private brand. This powder is sold to the grocer for 55 cents a dozen pound cans. The grocer retails it for 25 cents a pound. Paying 5 cents and selling for 25 cents may bo a smart business transaction for the alum baking powder people, but think of tho evil that is being worked upon the innocent consumer.
A Change |-or the Better.
L. A. Jones, of Hindsviile, Ark., in renewing his subscription to THE JOURNAL, adds the following postscript: "I was greatly pleased to note the change of political faith of Mr. McCardle and Mr. Vancleave. I, too, was reared a Democrat in old Montgomery, and can testify how hard it- is to give up ones party. But the change was made, and 1 am rejoicing in Republican triumph and our country's prestige and prosperity."
All In One Church.
Indianapolis .Meridian street M. K. church is feeling ratner proud over the fact that it is now the church homo of the governor of Indiana and I the two senators from this state. Senators Fairbanks and Beveridgo have long been members of tho church, and now the new governor has indicated that he and his wife will associate themselves with the church for the next four years.
