Col. R. W. Thompson was selected to preside. In taking the chair he made a fifteen minutes speech, which was received with applause. Col. Thompson said if the Republican party was turned out of power at the ccming£national election it would be nothing short of a calamity and it would be like putting back the indexed finger of time. He baid he expected the coming campaign to be an angry,, violent and exciting one and was glad to see that the Republican spirit in Vigo county had not di& out.

Messrs. G. M. Allen and D. T. Morgan were elccted secretaries 1. H. C.
