| desire in the name Of the F hers Of
St. Josephs to return our sincere thanks 10
the friends whose united efforts contrihu
ted TO make our recent pic mic such de-
cided success Notwithstanding the ex-
treme heat and the intolerable dust little
over nineteen hundred dollars was realized
for the benefit of the new Convent.
To the ladies in charge of the dinner
table especial credit is due for procuring
such sumptnous and hounteous repast, as
perhaps has never been witnessed in the
State on a similar occasion. The ladies
and gentlemen comprising the other COM
mittees are also worthy of every praise for
their exertions which were crowned as they
deserved to be, with marked success. The
Fathers made note Of those who worked
30 zealously in behalf of cold ST. Joseph's'
and those good friends may rest assured
that we shall not forget them.
Our thanks are due to the press of the
surrounding towns but more particularly
TO the Som ERsET Press for substantial ia
vorz in the way OF printing and advertis-
ing and to the Columbian for many kind
notices. To one and all of the friends who
assisted us We wish 10 return our heartfelt
thanks. H. F. LILLY. o. p.

A Reading Tp., Democratic is Inter-
viewed.

Our reporter demanded free full and
expression for the PRESS and il
was given:
What is your opinion of the county tick
cts now in nomination in Perry Co?
Like the people in Pittsburgh, Phila>
delphia and other places last spring, the
people of many townships and counties in
Ohio wish to change bosses. The Demo
cratic ticset has few good men, so has
the Republican ticket and the Greenbaek
ticket in Perry County.
I approve of the movement on foot in
several townships to organize the elements
that do not fully approve either ticket in
to Conference Clubs with view to select
the best men from all the tickets and soli-
dify themselves on this line of effort to
get rid of good deal of rubbish on all
the tickets.
Do you know of any considerable senti-
ment in favor of such Conference Clubs?
have discussed the subject with IS to
100 Democrats, chiefly of Reading town
ship, and the approval of some such meth.
cd to purify the convention system and to
correct IFS abuses, ia not only generally
but earnestly entertained.
Wonld you expect permanent organi-
za'ion, lasting into next spring and future
elections?
By all means, sir. 1t would hardly pay
to build house OF SO good material as is
found in the independent voter, only to
use for few months.
Have you any objection to give details
and plans of organization?
am at liberty only to cay the plans and
details, as well as the power and ascertain.
ed will of the Conference Clubs, are new
and belong to the members alone or to
those who are specially entrusted with
them as helpers.
is it a secret society?
Yes, in certain sense, it is secret like
the cost marks on goods, secret like the
proceedings in the Executive Committee
rooms of all parties, secret as to its work
and methods, but not secret a to its aims
and objects
| Has any Club been organized in Perry
County?
| None has been yet organized in Reading
township but, as said, more than three
score have been consulted and expressed
approval of such a Club, and learn that
in all the Northern part of Perry such
Clubs will unite 10 days before the elec
tion, on the same set of candidates and ap
point a committee to fix tickets according

This is the opinion of J. w. Bookwalter
whose name disgraces the Democratic
State ticket for Governor. Never has a
man fallen so low in the estimation of a
community as Mr.. Book walter has on his
visit to Shawnee and Straitsville. He
came here with the idea that our people
required no other evidence of mans sbili-
ty than the liberality he possessed of dish
ing up beer and whiskey to the voters.
His conduct was disgusting. Going from
saloon to saloon treating any body and
every body who would drink at his ex.

tober which will learn him and all who
suppose that the miners can be bought
with whiskey that they are badly mistaken n
