Never were republicans so plenti ful in Putnam county as this year and never were they so enthusiastic as today when they came in to attend the best, the biggest and most harmonious convention ever held in this city. Many arrived last night but this morning the gravel roads, the dirt roads, the lanes, the alleys and tlie trails were full of republi cans. Some drove in double rigs, some in single rigs, some came on horse back and lots walked. They came with their lungs tested to a three hundred pound to the square inch pressure and all were headed for Greencastle the Mecca of their hopes. For days and weeks the • boys’’ trom all over this county have been itching for the opportn nity to make this trip. And why? Because republicanism is in the air. Because the grand old party is the one the people look to this year for salvation from the ills which dem oeraev has hung about their necks. Because there is a deeply rooted feel ing in this the year of our lord 1891 that republicanism is going to triumph in Putnam. Because thirty candidates have been hustling over the county totj many weeks seeing the delegates. Because the recording angel is reserving a special page for the democrat who this year changes his politics. There are a whole houseful of other becauses that we might enumerate had we the time. The people know them and the people will act upon them. Never before was there such a raging desire in the bosoms of voters hereabouts to stamp the eagle. The feeling is in the air and it cannot
be downed.
Democracy was knocked com pletely breathless today even ns early as nine o’clock when they saw the procession beginning to arrive. They gasped, stared, shuddered and then started: and went over the hills with heads and tails a fiappin’ in the breeze. They gave way to the oncoming hosts. Never before did the Putnam county court house prove too small for a republican convention. But today it couldn’t hare held a half of it. A little forethought had been made by the central committee and the opera house engaged. The Silver Leaf band unlimbered early in the day and at ten o’clock, the hour for the assembling of the convention, the crowd was enormous. A rush was then made and in an incredibly short time that large hall both auditorium and gallery was tilled to overllowing with republicans and republicanism. So much for the opening of the ball. The opera house was gaily decorated with flags, hunting, and pictures of some of the past and present heroes of the republican party were profusely distributed. There was Grant, there was McKinley, there was Harrison and there was "Lincoln. These pictures evoked
reading of the following resolution: The republicans of Putnam county, in convention assembled, hereby Tenth rm their allegiance to the principle* net forth in the platform adopted by tlie republican national convention of lsti'2. We desire to call tlie attention of every Putnam count v voter, regardless of former party attiliation to the unparalelled prosperity of our government and it's people while harvesting the lienetits of a republican protective policy, and we ask them to carefully and honestly contrast that period w ith the present condition of uncertainty and depression, which is—as many leaders of the democratic party and the leading democratic papers of the country concede—directly due to threatened tariff and financial legislation. We believe that a comparison of this kind will he made be every earnest voter, and that, in November next, Putnam county, like many other democratic strongholds, will enter an unmistakable protest against the proposed legislation that lias produced the pres-
ent conditions. 4
The long continuation of the democratic party in powerhi Putnam county has invited evils and practices that are detrimental to the people, and we h--lieve that the time has come when a change is desirable to a majority of the
voters of this county.
We therefore present to the voters of Putnam county the candidates which
on rules consisting of T. T. Moore, we this day nominate, with die pledge O. E. Mullinix and Frank Hall, that frugality and economy will be our . „ _ . „ , watch-word; that no public money Upon motion of S. A.
