Stops Taken to Form Young Men’s Republican Club.

Steps taken some time ago to organize a Young Men’s Republican Club and which have progressed under the leadership of Delos D. Dean, received new inspiration this Thursday morning when Miles Furnas, of Winchester, and R. H. Moore, of Michigan City, cams at Mr. Dean’s request to discuss the plants of organization. A meeting was held at Chairman McLain’s office and committees appointed to get the club under way. A big time is planned at the organization which is to take place Tuesday night of next week. At that time a smoker will be held and a program of speeches carried out. Republicans from all over the county are urged to take part, especially the young men, the forward looking fellows who are to be the bulwark of the party in the years to come. They are urged to get ipto touch with the movement by dropping a line to Mr. Dean stating that they will be present next Tuesday participate in the smoker and in framing the organization. V

As a duty of citizenship every young man should make a study of political issues and the needs of the country. He should assert his convictions not alone at the polls but in the platform making and conventions of his party. This is the greatest guarantee that the party will perform the wishes of the people. Come out to the young men’s meeting and join in the plan to make a permanent organization that will wield a tremendous power for good in future years.

John Coen, aged 90 years the Ith ot last March, was found dead in his bed when members of his daughter’s family went to his room this Thursday morning. He had for the past year been with his daughter, Mrs. John R. Vanatta, on North Cullen street, where his death occurred.

He had not been feeling very well lately, but yesterday he was in about his usual condition and he retired Thursday evening as usual. Mr. Coen was a native of Ohio, but came to Jasper county when yet a young man and had resided here for sixty years or more. The old Coen farm .is the one which B.

For a long time he was engaged in the raising and marketing of strawberries. He was always a devout Presbyterian and lived a good Christian life, respected by all who knew him. Some five years ago he went to Washington to live with his daughter, Mrs. John T. Saylor, also formerly of this place. A year ago he returned here and had since that time lived with the daughter at whose home he died. The funeral arrangements have not been made, awaiting word from distant relatives. He leaves three daughters, namely, (Mrs. Jennie Sayler, of Irby, Wash.; Mrs. Harriett Ferguson, of DeKalb, 111., and Mrs. Terzah Vanatta, of this city. Also one brother, William S. Coen, who

Asks The Republican to Join Christmas Ship Plan.

Editor Republican. Could you do a better thing than to join The Chicago Herald in the Christmas ship enterprise? Say by asking alPthe school teachers Jn the county to bring the matter of the attention of their schools, asking for a contribution from all the children of at least a penny, so that every child may share in the splendid charitable movement tovat least some extent, and they can give as much as they like. So worthy is the plan that many will doubtless be willing to give to the point of sacrifice. think of it, present it to your readers* Full directions may be found *in Chicago Herald and many other papers. Yours truly, A Friend of the Move.
