Reliably Democratic !!
An Enthusiastic Convention That
AGREED HarnOniOuSly on Every
Question and Candidate, at
the Grand Wind-Up,

Thursday of last week the Democra-
ovof the 33rd Senatorial District met
in convention at Ottawa. The place
ofmeeting was a cozy and homeIike
one. iuasmuch as Ottawa is beautl-
ful town and Putnam county has al
vavs been an old Democratic fortress
II ;s ca thronged with the good DEM
ocratic phalanx that to unearth
black Republican there requires
search warrant or some other terret-
like document.
The delegates all arrived early and
were most Hospitality entertained toy
+he resident Democrats. Ottawa mas
first class accommodations, even down
10 q brass band, and all these felicities
,yore con tap.n The whole delegation,
in word, is loud in its praise OF Ot-
tawa and her Democracy as en- ertalh-
ers.
The convention was called to order
at 1890, a. M, by Herman Groschner,
ofHenrv. chairman of the Senatorial
Committee, who announced that H.
q Richardson, of Lucas, had been
chosen for temporary chairman, and
Err. Jones, of Wood, temporary Sec
retary. .,
Mr., Richardson took the chair with
q few remarks in which he substan-
tially said that neither the time nor
occasion demanded an elaborate
speech; that they were here to noml-
nate and create two Democratic Sena-
+ors who will assist in choosing
Tinted States Senator, hence the ut
most discretion and judgment should
be exercised. To see Ohio represented
in Washington would be indeed
GRAND achievement-one which would
compensate any amount of labor and
LOYALTY on the part of the Democracy.
Our party is to-day in the ascendency'
and the party which has held togeth-
ar the length of it's existence must be
in the right

Considerable time was consumed ai-
the formation of committees, in dis"
cussing the recess question, the con-
vention finally recessing until II o.
clock, the short intermission due TO
desire to cut all prefunctory business
short
Shortly after noon, the delegates
were in their seats, acting on the Ia
bors of the several committees.

zation reported that the temporary or

mony prevailed.
