Thursday, and went through the
forms of nominating candidate for
Senator. All opposition was with
drawn, after it was perfectly helpless,
and Charles HI. Reeve was nominated.
We are told that Mr. Reeve maintain
ed his independence of the Democrat

sembled how corrupt the dead carcas
of the old party was. The delegates
gulped it down and some of them
swore that they would not vote for
him-but they will.

We invite the attention of our
readers to an article which appears
elsewhere, concerning the State Fire
Insurance Company Of LaPOrte, of
which the editor OF this paper is the
President. 1t is a State institution,
and worthy of the patronage of the
people of the State. The success of
the company has been very great,
and its managers are determided to
build up an institution that shall
take rank among the foremost that
are now doing business in Indiana.
From the encouragement already re-
ceived. they are assured that their
high ant.cipations will be fully real
lied. An agency for the company
has been established in Plymouth,
and a share of the insurance patron
age is solicited for the reasons set
forth in the excellent article from the
Milford NetCs.
The Editorial Convention held in
Columbia City, last Thursday, was an
enjoyable gathering OF the fraternity.
1t was not only pleasant reunion of
gentlemen engaged in the same occu-
patton, but it was especially so on ac-
count of the attention and respect
shown by the citizens. By invitation
of citizens we visited the principal
houses-the public halls-the selcer
and the jail. The Jail is really a beau
tiful structure, and it is nicely finish
ed with stone and iron. 1t is a safe
place to be in. The sewer is useful
deep and long. The banquet given
by tue citizens, at the Miller House
was enjoyed by all. The meeting in
Odd Fellows Hall, in the evening
was attended by a large number Of
citizens, ladies and gentlemen, and
presided over by Col. L. b. Mcdonald
afforded ali opportunity for citizens
and guests to relieve their minds oil
whatever might be heavily weighing
upon them.
We have no disposition to wrong
any person-nor even to create an
impression calculated To iniure oul
neighbor, without just cause. Wher
we made a remark about the candi
dacy for the Senate, OF our neighbor
Mr.. Plat Mcdonald, we did so in
good humor, without any intention
OF charging him with crookedness il
any transaction, either in or out o
TIM Common Council of the city o
Plymouth. Candidates for the Pres
idency, especially Republican candi
dates, have been investigated, will
a vengeance, and with seeming de
termination to convict them, though
ever so innocent, il such a thing
could be done by hired, and trained
witnesses. Our only object was u
point out to our neighbor the rougl
road he might have to travel, il h
continued the race for Senatoria
honOrs, provided the same kind o
treatment was meted out to him tina
others, equally innocent, were re
ceiving.
