HULLER AND WEBB NOW IN INDIANAPOLIS

Two of Men Charged With Wrecking Columbia Casualty Company - Brought Back to Trial. Lafayette Journal. Two of the four alleged embezzlers are reposing in the Marion county jail, William H. Webb>and Nicholas 'Muller having been brought to that city Tuesday from Houston, Texas. Detective Lyons accompanied the two nlen from the southern state. - h —■ A preliminary hearing will be given the alleged conspirators at a date in the near future, the exact day not as yet being set. They are charged with the embezzlement of securities of the Columbia Casualty company, formerly of this city, the concern now being in the hands of a receiver. The remaining pair of alleged fleecers are as yet unapprehended and it is thought that Tousy and Haynes smelled a mouse and acted accordingly. Governor Colquitt is in a way responsible for the getaway of the fugitives as his indecision in the matter of extradition allowed the two men ample time to learn of the state of affairs and vanish.

Catarrh Sufferers

Get Immediate and Effective Relief by Using Hyomei. Hyomei is nature’s true remedy for catarrh. There is no stomach dosing—you breathe it. When using this treatment you breathe healing balsams and effectively the most remote air cells of the throat, nose and lungs, the catarrhal germs are destroyed—quick and sure relief results. Hyomei often restores health to chronic cases that had given up all hope of recovery. Its best action is at the start of the disease when the breath is becoming offensive, and constant sniffling, discharges from the nose, droppings in the throat, or that choked up feeling begin to make* life a burden. At the first symptoms of catarrhal trouble, surely use Hyonjel. Ask B. F. Fendig for the complete outfit, |I.OO. He will,refund the money if It does note give satisfaction.

Entered January 1, 18*7, as second class jnall matter, at the post-offlee at Rensselaer, Indiana, under the act of March 8, 187*.

That is our ticket, Mr. Voter. Eighty-nine Republicans placed the big part of it in nomination Wednesday night in a mass convention in the east court room, after the wards had held separate conventions in different rooms in the court house. It is probable that at few times in preceding city conventions had the field been more thoroughly canvassed for good candidates, the demand of republicans without exception being for a clean ticket from top to bottom, one that would commend itself to the voters of the city and secure the support of all interested in-the careful administration of the business affairs of the city. And proof that a mass convention composed of a good representation of the voters can act wisely is shown by the result of this convention. In the first and third ward conventions there were no contests, Ray Wood and Frank King being named by acclamation. In the second ward three names were proposed, F. W. Tobias, Sylvester Gray and Rex Warner. Mr. Tobias was named on the first ballot. The mass convention organized by making Charles G. Spitler permanent chairman and Delos Dean permanent secretary. The call .was read and. nominations for undyor were called for. Only one name was presented, that of Charles G. Spitler, and after waiting for some time a motion was made that his nomination be made unanimous and it carried with enthusiasm.

Mr. Spitler was asked to speak to the convention and did so in substantially the following language: “To say that this nomination comes to me,as a surprise would not be the truth, for during the past several days I have been urged by many to allow my name to go before the convention. I tried to make it understood that it was not my wish and in this I was sincere.* There was a time some years ago when I was a younger man and thought I knew it all that I wanted to be mayor of Rensselaer. hut at that time wiser heads prevailed and I was not chosen to 'head the ticket. I have realized since that time that the people were right. Now that I was in no sense a candidate I am urged to accept this nomination by you and I hope that time will prove that the people arc right again. I do not like political campaigns and have engaged in them as a duty and not for any pleasure. I do not like the excitement they create nor the tendency toward personalities some times Indulged in. I am known to yon all and trust that irt-this honor you have conferred upon me I shall meet your expectations in carrying the vote and shall meet your confidence in every way. Hoping that you have not misplaced your confidence, T thank you heartily for the honor and pledge that I will do all that I can for the success of the ticket nominated here tonight."

REPUBLICANS NAME TICKET OF ABLE MEN

Mr. Spitler’s words impressed his hearers deeply. They had the ring of statesmanship and are proof of his thorough the responsibilities of the office to which he was nominated. His long experience as a councilman and his able service to the city in that capacity make him an especially desirable man for the place. The nominations of Charles M. Sands for treasurer and Charles Morlan for clerk were made by acclamation. Both are thoroughly qualified and in every way deserving. Mr. Sands has been the assistant cashier of the State Bank for a long time and the fact that 1 he is on the ground floor will be an advantage welcomed by all who have business with the treasurer. Mr. Morlan has been clerk for several years and is thoroughly familiar with the duties of the office and punctilious in their conduct. Being the janitor of the court house and having his office in the basement of that building, the records are kept in a place where they can . readily be consulted at any time.

Mr. Morlan deserves this office and will doubtless receive the undivided support of his party as well as the votes of many outside who recognize his worth of citizenship and his qualifications for the position. In the naming of councilmen-at-large the most interesting part of ‘the convention developed. Three names, those of Rex Warner, C. J. Dean and Dr. A. G. Catt, were proposed. Mj. Warner was the first selection, getting 47 votes to 27 for Dean and 11 for Catt. the second nomination the following names were placed before the convention, C. J. Dean, Frank G. Kresler, J. N. Leatherman and H. F. Parker. There were several declinations which the chair did not accept and the first ballot resulted as follows: Kresler 37, Dean 26, Leatherman 19, Parker 7. Sonfe wag put in a vote for O. K. Rainier, who is frequently mentioned as a possible candidate for mayor on the democratic ticket. The next ballot resulted in the selection of Kresler, the vote being as follows: Kresler 45, Dean 36, Leatherman 8. The candidates for councilmen-at-large made brief speeches, pledging their efforts to win and adding zest to the convention. The democrats of the city will nominate a ticket Wednesday night of next week, Oct. Ist, for the first time in the recollection of many there will be three tickets In the field.

Since there are three tickets the outcome of the campaign Is to a degree uncertain, but the ticket nominated by republicans certainly is one of splendid worth and its success at the polls will mean a clean, dignified and business administration. We hope that voters will look over this ticket and give it the support it so well deserves.
