Democratic Editors Were Entertained Here Sunday.

Editor Babcock, of the Jasper County Democrat, was the host Sunday to several democratic editors of the district, those being present were: J. P. Simonds, of 'Montioello; Reno Tsherwood, of Lafayettc: Ed Steinbaclr, of Kentland, and Roby and Robertson, of Fowler. They were entertained at the Makeever hotel for dinner, and A. F. Long and wife, C. C. Warner and wife, B. Forsythe and wife, E. P. Honan and wife, T. M. Callahan and wife, Dr. H. L. Brown and wife and Harry Watson were also guests of the editor and in the automobiles of the local guests all were taken for a spin Sunday afternoon, the cars being driven to the county farm and St. Joseph’s college. A longer trip had been planned but the drizzling rain made it impracticable to make tliejjip. In the afternoon the editors held a business meeting at the office of The Democrat, a sort of executive session. Presumably some method of securing postoffices for the editors was discussed, although The Republican has no information along this line. Editor Steinbach, of Kenttand, remained over night with Attorney Honan. He had a falling out with the democratic county chairman of Newton county and was made a defendant in a libel suit and Mr. Honan was one of his attorneys.
