Eight thousand gallons of oil shipped in by an Illinois firm, over the Erie railroad, attracted large numbers of farmers from various parts of the county, who filled their tanks therefrom. The company also sent in a car load of individual oil tanks which they sold to farmers who did not have one to receive their supply of oil. It is said that the firm sent a representative here last summer to i contract among the farmers for oil ■ at a price lower than that of the local market, but the price which they conI tracted for then, is higher than that of the local market now.

A NEWSPAPER ROW CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE party, is said to have declared his intention ol' severing his connection with the Huntington Herald, on which he is retained as editorial writer, being highly disgruntled over the expressed intentions of the pres ent management. Mr. Butler will be chosen to assume control of the new republican paper, providing present plans materialize. The consolidation of the TimesDemocrat and Herald is the prime sensation of the day. The public is keenly aroused and the matter has prompted a discussion that precludes the most stirring national issues from consideration. The democrats have already obtained the services of an editor, and declare they are determined to thwart the designs of the interests who have attempted to assume sole dictation in civic and political policies of the municipality.

The j first demonstration occurred when a delegation from Adams county enter.ed the hall, lead by a former sal ! loon man from Berne. It was announced that this crowd came from the district of Stephen B.

Timothy Nicholson, . Richmond; Seventh, L. Babcock, Indianapolis; Eighth, Francis M. Wil- ; liams, Muncie; Ninth, I. C. Dwiggins, ; ; Crawfordsville: Tenth, Charles Thompson, Lafayette; Eleventh, George B. Lockwood, Marion , and delegate at large, the Rev. Joshua i Stansfield, Indianapolis. Mr. Locks wood is chairman. The organization will try to secure the best planks possible, looking to ward the re-enactment of the county option law, with state-wide prohibition as soon as possible, and if thev I should fail to interest either one of the old parties, may, from all the talk heard, form a new party.
