PeopIe,s Party Convention.

The Peoples Party met at Citizens Hall. Fri
day, Shpt. I'd. to place in nomination County
ticket. There were II in attendance.
The Convention was called to order at 2:3O p.
M. by @. e. Sheplin. chairman of the Executive
Committee. and W. J. Weaver was chosen as
Chairman. and Il. S. Stratton Secretary. after
considerable consultation.
Frank Colt put in nomination G. r. Doolittle
for Auditor; Sluman Nelson nominated Bina
Colt for Sheriff D. B. Wagner said that the man
he would name for Infrmary Director had been
astaunch Republican up to the time of the or
ganization Of the Peoples Party. was a compe-
tent person for the Office. and as the Republi-
cans had placed man on their ticket who would
not poll their full vote. believed the vote would
would go to Mr.. Messenger. and strongly endors-
cd his nomination.
All of these names were unanimously chosen
their respective candidates.
Upon motion. the balance of the ticket was
left &c be filled By the Executive Committee.
As there was q vacancy on the Executive Com
mittee on account of G. R. Doolittle not being
able to serve. Luman T. Nelson was elected to
ill the vacancy.
The Executive Committee consists of G. E.
Sheplin. H. S. Stratton. L. T. Nelson. E. II. Bar
Der. and B. F. Pardy.
1T. Nelson was heard to say that he saw no
difference between the two old parties in their
platform or men. and that it would make no
difference to him which was in power.
There was in attendance sprinkliug of some
of the old liners from the other political parties.
Mr.. Stratton informed those present that the
finances needed replenishing. and all monies
placed on the table would be thankfully receiv-
cd. None of the spectators contributed.
It was thought by some that they had not bet
ter put up q ticket. Others were in favor of put
ting up part of ticket. then form a combination
with one of the other parties.
It does not seem that the party's strength is as
strong as it was year ago. It is possible they
may poll their usual State and National vote.
With the four parties in the field. it would
seem that all electors can have plenty of materi-
al to choose from. It is evident there is more of
independent voting at the present time than
formerly, and in local affairs many will vote for
those tley think best qualified for the Office.
Thus it behooves each party to put up their best
men.

DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL TICKET.


The Democrats of Portage County did
good work, Saturday. The ticket nominated is
first class, from Auditor to Coroner. 1t is COM
the people to vote.
Its candidates are all good, clean men, of
sound ability; men of courage and character,
having the best interests of the public at heart.
They are men whose lives have been spent in
honest toll men OF healthy moral ideas, and
of public trust.
The Democrats have offered the people a
ticket that every honest voter should indorse.
There is not one of the nominees whose busi-
ness integrity needs bolstering up, or who has
pursued any questionable methods in amassing
together whatever worldly goods he may possess.
The Republican bosses have again seen fit to
go before the people with objectionable candi
dates, and this, too, in spite of repeated warn
ings from right thinking men Of their party. not
to do so on pain of certain defeat.
Under these circumstances, the Democrats
owed higher duty than ever to the people. in
nominating ticket that should be composed Of
representative men whose abilities and character
would be a guarantee of official excellence
when elected.
The choice of the convention is most crafty
ing. No better ticket could be named had they
canvassed every name in Portage County.
The Portage Democracy has performed it:
duty well, and we do not doubt for momen
that the PEOPLE will elect the ticket placed ir
nomination by them last Saturday.

1. H. PHELPS made happy hit as well as
true prophecy, when he introduced to the Re-
publicans present the next President of the
United States through his excellent portrait that
adorned the wall back of the rostrum.
IT was the universal desire of the Portage
Democracy that Prosecutor Phelps should ac-
cept denomination, and a matter of sincere
regret to them that he did not do so. But Mr.
Phelps felt that his undivided attention should
be given to his civil practice, and in justice to
its requirements, that he ought not to take up
the duties of another term.
IT was bad day for the truthful Republican
SCRIBE but as there were probably none within

important part in the thousands of
cures performed by the priest, are
bogus. According to j. j. Wright,
who was Father Mollinger's carpen-

colored glass, and the alleged golden
altar at st. Anthony's chapel is
nothing but wood covered with
gilt. Mr.. Wright said yesterday: 81

not exhibit real stones. He said he

property began today in the COM
