NEWTON COUNTY DEMOCRATS NOMINATE.

A very enthusiastic convention was held by the Democrats of Newton county at Goodland Tuesday. The Indiana Harbor road ran a special train down from the north end to Kentland and from there the Panhandle brought the crowd over to Goodland. The Kentland and Goodland bands furnished music for the occasion. Following is the ticket nominated; Treasurer, Chas. Spinney of Goodland, the present incumbent; recorder, George Gay of Iroquis township; sheriff, Samuel Lemaster of Grant township; assessor, T. L. Davis of Brook;.surveyor, Chas. Mullen of Iroqnois township; corener, Dr. Godfrey of Kentland; commissioners, A. D. Washburn of Jefferson township, and Ed Long of Jackson township; county council, Thos. Keene, Paul Weisbaar, Jr., Chas. Shreiner, J. B. Guildinzoph; at large, Henry Carson, Charles Franklin and Dr. Petry. The present republican clerk, Mr. Hess of Morocco, seems to have given pretty general satisfaction and is a very deserving young man, therefore no nomination was made for that office.
