THB DEMOCRAT PRIMARY.

Tlie Connty Ticket Named Saturday Dpea Mot Create Much Enthusiasm.

The ticket is as follows: Representative, Montgomery Marsh, Center township.

Prosecutor, John F. Wiggins, Vernon township. Sheriff, Noah W. Speag'e, Green township.

Treasurer, Theodore L. Smith, Brandy wife township. Surveyor, Will J. Cieary, Brandy wine township.

Asse-sor, Homer Leonard, Sugar Creek township. Coroner, Dr. J. E. Lummus, Center township.

Commissioner Middle District, George W Crider, C^ nter township Commissioner Western District, John Manche, Sugar Creek township.

The ticket is not one to arouse any great degree of enthusiasm, bnt is acceptable to the Democrats as the nominees were generallv voted for over the county aLd no particular locality can be credited with their nominations.

The men comprising it are fairly well known over the county but this is a year in which "General Apathy" is in charge of the Democratic party and Hancock county is likely to prove an exception. The nomination of John MHnche for commissioner of the Western district is not a strong one. It will be observed from the tabulated table of the vote which we publish elsewhere that he did not run well in his own township, Sugar Creek, nor in Brandywine, where his political metbois are well known. In Sugar Creek he only received 67 out of 255 ©r only about one out of four, and in Brandywine 43 out of 124, or one in threa.

There are many reasons why the Republicans should carry Hancock county this year aud they will be properly stated to the people later. Never has the Republican -party been more enthusiastic and never have the principles of the Grand Old Party stood forth more prominently. The Republican party will win this year because it will deserve to win.

THE CREAMERY STARTED.

The Greentielfl Creamery Under a New

Management.

Harry Comstoch, son of Warren Comstock, has taken charge of the Creamery and commenced operating it this morning with J. H. Mingle as butter maker.

There is not a Creamery in Indiana that can boast of a better all-around creamery man and butter maker than Mr. Mingle, and as proof of this statement, if you will call at the creamery he will gladly show you a gold medal which he received for the best butter on exhibition at the Great World's Fair in which there were thousands of competitors.

The creamery here has not been a paying investment, bnt der the present energetic management and the money behind it, it cannot fail to win, and will be a source of ready money to those who sell them milk. Milk cows that are now scarcely pitying their keeping will produce quite a little income, as is shown in different localities where creameries are in operation and properly managed.

Mr. Comstock has made the dairy a 6tudy for the past tew years and we feel confident by his business-like methods and knowledge of the butter business, that the Greenfield Creamery will be a good thing for both the farmers who sell milk and our city.

Slight Disturbance at the Opera House. At the opera house last Saturday night during the performance of "The Temptation of Money' by the Anderson Theatrical Co., Jack Boswell, got loud and annoyed both the performers on the stage and the audience. He was promptly ejected from the hall. There were three or four with him who had been disturbing people near them, but they were as quiet as mice after Bos well's disappearance. This is exactly the way to treat those persous who persist in di$urbiQg the people who wish to see the performance and hear the actors. They should all be treated the same way. Let them know ibey can not interfere with the quiet enty meat of people who go to the opera house to be entertained.

struck With Paralysis.

Hon. Morgan Chandler had a slight attack of paralysis Sunday morning at his home in this city His right side was affected principally, his arm and leg. He had partial use of both, however, and is much better today. He had a somewhat similar attack at the time of the burial of the late Dr. N. P. Howard Sr., when it was thought it was caused by the heat. The trouble is probably Ciused by overwork in looking after the mana ment of his large business interests. Mr. Chandler has always been a very busy and hard working man.

President Burns Wins His Case.

Will H. Miller, of the glass works, received a telegram Saturday from President Burn*, of the American Glass Workei's Association at Pittsburg, that the court had ruled i» his favor. A few men, enemies of Burns, were attempting to oust him on charges of incompetency. The vast majority of the members of the organization over the United States were friends and supporters of Burns and are glad that he was successful in retaining his position 'i- A:

Sunday was an ideal Easter, in that it gave those who were fortunate enough to have them, a chance to display their spring suits.

Spring is the most beautiful season of the year, as it is then that the beautiful flowers make their first appearance.
