Jasper County Democrat, Volume 6, Number 40, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 9 January 1904 — J. B. FAULKNOR. [ARTICLE]

J. B. FAULKNOR.

Editor of Michigan City Dispatch Is Made District Chairman. The democrats of the Tenth congressional district have a new chairman in the person of J, B. Faulknor, editor of the Michigan City Dispatch, who was chosen to succeed Dan Sims of Lafayette at the district convention held at the latter place Thursday. Owing to private business occupying so much of his time, Mr. Sims declined a re-election, and Mr. Faulknor was chosen in his stead. The new chairman is a wide-awake gentleman and it is conceded that he will make an excellent chairman, Mr. Faulknor will probably get oat over the district shortly and make himself thoroughly acquainted with the democrats. The Jackson banquet at night was attended by about 300 prominent democrats from all parts of the district, and much enthusiasm was shown. There will be a grand ball at the Armory Hall, Rensselaer, Ind., on Tuesday eve, Jan. 12, 1904. Best of order maintained. Music by Haley & Steadman’s orchestra. Shindler & Bowers, Mgro.
