Democrat* Choose Delegates to Convention to Be Held Monday. Marion township democrats held a convention at the east court room this Saturday morning to choose sixteen'delegates to a county dele gate convention to be held Monday afternoon at 1:30 o’clock in the same room, at which time eight delegates to the district organizing) convention yyill be selected, The! latter convention will be held at ; Hammond on Dec. 29th. The delegates chosen were as follows: O. K. Rainier, N. S. Bates, Joseph Luers, J. A. McFarland, W. R Nowels, C. F. Stackhouse, Dolph Day, W. L Hoover, Ed Herath, Lee Glazebrook, E. P. Honan, Will Barkley, W. FL Ritchey, Henry Eigelsbach and Lucius Strong. Nineteen names were proposed and the three defeated ones were F. E. Babcock, Joseph Nagle and William Ervin. Babcock received. 8 votes, Nagle 12 votes and Ervin T 4 votes. The delegates elected received from 15 to 19 votes out of the 21 in the convention. While the is sue was not shown on the surface, there was a-contest between the Murphy and anti-Murphy supporters and Babcock was against Murphy and it is safe to conclude that the election of these delegates was a complete Murphy success.

The defeat of Mr. Babcock as a delegate was especially significant from the fact that he had opposed Murphy so vigorously in his paper and urged that the voters turn out and support anti-Murphy While the number at the convention was comparatively small the size of Mr. Babcock’s vote, as the only avowed Murphy opponent, shows his failure to secure the endorsement of his opposition. In the current issue of The Democrat the editor took a little fling at Mr. McFarland and Mr. Littlefield, the city chairman and county chairman, respectively, of the democratic organization. The paper said: “He (Mayor Thomas E. Knotts, of Gary) found but three or four here who favor Murphy, including, of course, McFarland and Littlefield. Everyone else thought it would not do to put him again at the head of the district convention.” It is not known whether Mayor Knotts reported the result of his canvass to Editor Babcock or whether the editor made a guess, but the estimate seems to have been woefully short, for in a direct contest when both McFarland and Babcock were candidates, the former received 16 votes and Babcock only 8. What the result was in other townships The Republican has not learned. There is to be a total of 51 delegates selected, and they are to assemble here Monday afternoon. Lucius Strong was the chairman and Editor Babcock the secretary of the township convention held today. “ ——■■ -—■

Co. M Defeated at the Armory Friday Evening.

The Co.. M basketball jossers went down to defeat before the St. Joe quintette last night in the opening game of the season. The game was a fast, hard-fought battle all the way and was marred by a great deal of rough work. The superior condition and teamwork of St. Joe were the reasons for the victory. The locals with more practice and better conditions should be able to defeat the college lads handily, showing much more natural ability than their rivals. When the final gong rang the score Sheet showed 28 to 19 in favor of the red and purple. Not until the last few minutes of play did the St. Joecrcw pull away from the soldier lads. Deery led in the scoring for St. Joe and Clark for the locals. A return game will be played later at the college. The lineup and summary follow: Co. M.—dark, Morgan, Kirk, Putts, Nowels. St. Joe—Schall, Shellenberger, Deery, Monihan, Mattingly. Field Goals—Deery 4. Schall 3, Shellenberger 3, Monihan 1, Clark 5, Putts 1, Kirk 1. Free throws, Schall 6 out of 10, Clark 5 out of 7.
