It,is the understanding among local Democrats that the platform for the State convention will be written in Washington. Senator Turple will write it and Senator Voorhees and the Democratic members of Congress—Conn excepted—will see it before it is sent to Chairman Taggart. The convention will meet two weeks from to-day. No one is predicting what position the party may take on the tariff question should Congress still be in a deadlock when the convention meets. The party managers are hoping that Congress will agree upon a tariff bill not later than the middle of next week. Senators Voorhees and Turple will suggest what the convention shall say on the money question. With two extremes to please r.obody envies them the undertaking. The convention will, so Democrats about here say, approve the administration of Governor Matthews. Further than aproving the Governor’s acts the convention, so it Is said, will not discuss the recent strike of the members of the American Railway Union. ' No addtional candidates have been announced, and it seems certain that nearly all the nominations will be by acclamation. The talk about the convention approving the candidacy of some of the men on the Populist ticket has not attracted much attention. Chairman Taggart says that a straight Democratic ticket will be nominated. The slatemakers here say the following will be the Secretary of State—William R. Myers, Anderson. Auditor of State—Joseph T. Fanning, Indianapolis. Treasurer of State—Henry Berghoff, Ft. Wayne. Clerk of Supreme Court—C. W. Wellman, Sullivan. Superintendent of Public Instruction— W. H. Glasscock, Greenfield. Attorney-General—Marion Griffith, Vevay. It has been expected that either Senator Voorhees, Senator Turple or Congressman Bynum would be here and preside over the convention, but Congress holds on so long that the State committee is considering the advisability of selecting some one else. The fall meeting ’of the Traveling Men’s Republican Club will be held Saturday evening at the club rooms in the When Block. The officers of the county Democratic committee deny that a legislative ticket has been agreed upon in caucus. Thomas Taggart says there is no foundation whatever for the story that a legislative “slate” has been fixed. The convention, he says, will endeavor to select six good men as candidates for the Legislature. —- Already preparations are going forward for the fall election. In the State House C. H. Stein is making arrangements for the manufacture of paper to be used In tickets. One and a half million tickets were required at the last general election. Two hundred thousand more will be needed this fall. It will take forty days to make tne paper and ship it to the printer. Th£ activity in the People’s party has started inquiry as to how much strength the party had in Indiana two years ago. The party cast in this State for its presidential candidate 22,220 votes. The Democratic party cast 262,740 votes and the Republicans 255,615 votes. Populist leaders declare now that their party will cast as many votes in Indiana as the Democrats this year. Those who have consulted the official figures of the last election do not believe this will be don" The party would have to gain 109,150 votes to cast half as man> votes as were cast in the State for Cleveland two years ago. The Populists do not expect to elect any Congressman from this State, but they do expect to gft several members of the Legislature—enough to hold the balance of power. The Populists showed strength in the several congressional districts two years ago as follows: First*district, 2,110 votes; Second,

Mayor Denny this morning gave his decision In the matter of the revocation of the saloon license of James Hignlgbt. Hignight was a mem bop of the fire department who resigned to go into the saloon business as an agent of the brewery syndicate, and was established in East Washington street. His bartender, John Bchurman, waa arrested for sellling liquor on July 4, and later in the day Hignight was arrested for the same offense. Superintendent Powell asked the Mayor to revoke the license and a trial was held before Mayor Denny or Tuesday. Spaan and McCullough appeared for the syndicate and called In question the authority of the Mayor to revoke the license. The Mayor, in deciding against the syndicate, said: The defendant has interposed no defense, calling no witnesses, and although appearing'by counsel, did not even crossexamine the witnesses Introduced by the petitioner. He simply questioned the jurisdiction of the Mayor to try and determine the matter presented by the petition. So far as my powers to revoke or suspend licenses, under Section 45. of the chart! ■ ■$

Seventh Day Adventists In Camp. Many more persons came in to-day to ewel] the number of campers at the meeting that is being held In Roache’g grove, in North Indianapolis. The camp continues to grow as tents go up, both large and small, some only large enough for one family, and some large enough for a dozen families. A grocery tent is on the ground, where provisions can be had by those who cook for themselv" and a 40 by 60 tent makes a good dl: room for those who do not care to themselves with cooking. The dl» _ tent is connected with the kitchen, which is a; forty-foot tent, and both are Inclosed by mosquito netting, making them

by the officers to pr

clearly appears that he has succeeded on several occasions In secretly admitting qrowds of persons and serving them with drinks on Sunday, although he has managed to prevent the officers from personally witnessing the sales, refusing them admittance when demanded. He has not only obstructed the regular officers in their efforts to inspect his premises and present illegal sales, but has applied vile epithets to at least one officer for persisting in hlfa efforts to prevent violations of the law from being

committed.

The law under which saloon-keepers are licensed in this State provides that the licensee shall “be a fit person to be intrusted with the sale of Intoxicating liquor.” I believe, from the facts before me in this proceedings, that the Board of County Commissioners made a mistake in first issuing the county license in this case; and feeling that I have the power to correct the mistake made, by revoking the city license issued, I have concluded

At noon Mr. Spaan calld on the mayor and served a notice on him to appear before Judge Harper, of the Superior Court, to show cause why a restraining order should not be Issued against him to prevent the enforcement of the order of revocation. Judge Harper is ill and the proceedings will be at his house in North Delaware street. _ . ' Succession of Small Accidents.

A noticable feature of the dining tent and kitchen is the absence of butter and lard.i Milk and cream are used instead of butter and lard, and, while some might think this would be expensive, it is found that it Is not nearly so expensive as to use butter and lard.
