FOUNTAIN PARK.

“Tho Hon. Charles A. Towne’a maiden effort in the House was a triumph, equalling that of Mr. Bryan in the Fifty-second Congress. “There were few in the hall when he rose to speak, but before he was half finished the House was in a delirium of enthusiasm. Like Burke Cockran, Bob Cousins, William L. Wilson, W. C. P. Breckinridge and W. J. Bryan, the handsome, graceful, eloquent young orator from Minnesota •wept the House off its feet. There was nothing more done that day at that end of the Capitol, and all that political Washington talked about was Towne’s maiden speech.” It will be recalled that Charles A. Towne ran for Vice-President on one of our National tickets in 1900. At Fountain Park. Aug, 25th, 1906, Remington, Indiana.
