There Is no apathy among the Repub.
licans Of Ohio county this year, judging
from the large number OF representative
men who assembled In Gcrnania Hall
last night to take tho preliminary steps
toward the. organization OF a Contra! Re.
publican Club. Nearly every seat III the
hail was filed by the Republicans from
every part OF The city and county, aud
notwithstanding tho atmosphere was In.
tensely warm, they sat through the en-.
tire meeting and manifested great inter.
eat III the object OF the gathering. U-
A Iittlcalter eight o'clock DR.. George
J. Caddle, OF the Executive Committee Of
tho State Club League, raped the as.
scmbly to order, and after announcing
the object OF tho meeting nominated Mr..
b. s. Allison for temporary Chairman
and George A. Huntington for ScCre.
tary, aud they were unanimously elect.
ed. On taking tho chair, Mr.. Allison, In
a short speech, detailed the purpose Of
tho meeting aud explained the propos.
ed plan Of organization as II hnd been
suggested by It's proiectots.
NECESSARY CLUB.
Mr.. Allison impressed upon theminds
Of those present the necessity for Cen.
tral Club, which would be a parent or.
ganiza,icn Of other clubs in the county,
and dwelt upon thu peculiar work 1t
would have 10 do, announcing that II
would be free to all, connection with
1t would involve no eIpGnae, and that
lis members would comprise al Repub-
l!can voters Of Ohio county. To the end
that the spirit OF tho plan contemplated
might be carried out from the start, he
asked that oil present should take part
in the proceedings, aud invited Il full,
free and frank expression OF opinion.
Mr.. Allison, by way OF introducing
tho business Tor which tho meeting was
called, suggested that the convention &C.
lect two committees, one on plan Of
organization md the other on place Of
meeting. The duty OF the first would
be 10 settle upon a permanent plan,
broad and liberal In its character, for the
conduct OF the club. The second COM
mittec, he stated, should provide 4 per-
mauent home for tie club, which wonld
be headquarlerg, not only for the Re-
publican voters OF tho county, but Il
central point or recruiting station for all
other clubs belonging 10 tho League.
The Chairman then declared the meet.
ing open for busirese.
THE FIRST BUSINESS.
1t wasmovcd by Mr.. J. G. Brady, OF
Triadelph!a district, that the committees
suggested, each consist Of one member
from each district in the county, and
the motion unanimously carried. -'T
A brief recess followed in order to
give the representatives. OF The various
districts time TO get together and select
their members for the committees. The
caucuses developed an agreeable fact,
and that was that every district in the
county (save two country dis.ricls) was
Represented very fully by earnest men,
MI eager TO take part in Ihn proceedings.
In this respect the assembly bore re.
semblance to 1 mass convention OF the
county Republicans, rather than 10 a
called meeting Tor the purpose Of organ.
izing 4 club. In n short time all the
districts were ready TO report with the
following result: lil.-.a,,- .-,-

On motion OF Mr.. Brady the chairman

an eX.otiic!o member OF both commit.
tees, and after some discussion OF minor
matters tho convention adjourned to
meet OF the call OF the chairman TO hear
the report OF the committees and to
effect permanent organization.
The committees met Immediately l!er
adjournment and transacted consider
able business. That on plan OF organi-
zation discussed plan which will
doubtless meet with g,cat favor among
the Republicans OF the city and county,
which is unlike any party organization
ever known here before. It ID designed
TO be very effective and will provide for
not mere campaign club, but for 4
permanent institution, WHICH will be o!
practical and lasting benefit 10 The party.
1t was impossible for the speakers an
nounced to be present, owing to bust.
ness engagements that either took them
out OF tnwp or kept them from the hall.
1t was, however, well that such was the
case, as the night was excessively warm,
and the business OF the meeting occu.
pied all the time. -
