A GREAT RECEPTION.
TO Be EXTENDED GENERAL ADLAI E. STEW
ENSON,
O, the Occasion Of His Visit Here on the First Of
NOvsmbsr-An Enthusiastic Meeting Held Last
EYsning-COmmittsss Appointed, Which
Are Called 10 Meet Tomorrow
Evening.

It's entirely safe to say that the re-
ception to be accorded Gen. Adlai Il.
Stevenson. the Democratic candidate
for Vice President, who is to deliver an
address in this city on the afternoon OF
the first of the coming month, will be
the greatest political event ever en-
acted in Wheeling.
It's the aim and ambition OF those In
charge OF the affair to dwarf even such
| political landmarks as the receptions to
| Thurman and Hendricks, and at this
moment the indications are that they
will be surpassed in every particular.
Democrats for fifty miles around
Wheeling are enthusiastic at the pros
uect OF a speech from Mr.. Stevenson,
ard they will come to town en- masse on
that day, making up an immense crowd
at the meeting In the afternoon, and
forming an enormous parade in the eve
ming.
Every exertion will be henceforth de-
voted to pushing the affair In all Its
branches, and some tall hustllng will be
done by the gentlemen who have charge
of the several departments going 10
make up the programme OF the day.
Yesterday morning a number OF invi-
tations to attend meeting at the
Wheeling Democratic Club building
were addressed to leading Ohio county
Democrats, aud as a result there was
very large attendance OF representative
| Democrats. The meeting was called TO
order by Chairman r. s. Kincheloe, OF
the County Democratic Committee, and
on his motion Mr.. Henry NJ. Russell
was made temporary president, and
later permanent president, with Frank
A. Woeber, Jr., as secretary. After
some preliminary discussion Mr.. +. L.
Jepson moved the appointment OF
committee OF five TO report committees
to have charge of the demonstration
and reception, and the motion prevailing,
the Committee was made up OF Messrs.
| f. p. Jepson, c. w. Brockunier, w. Q.
Handlan, f. Reister and John Water
house. The Committee at once retired
to consider the matters devolving upon
It, and while 1t was absent addresses
were made by Hon. j. B. Summerville,
Henry NJ. Russell and Col. Thomas
| O'Brien. These speeches were all emil
nently calculated to increase the al
ready great enthusiasm. aud there was
frequent and loud applause.
In due time the Committee reported

was unanimously endorsed

The Committee on Committees was
then constituted an Executive Com
mittee. to have general supervision OF
the affair, Mr.. c. w. Brockunier, being
named of its permanent chairman.
II YVES recommended by the Com
mittee that the programme consist OF a
speech by Mr.. Stevenson In the after
noon, and a parade OF all the Demo
cratic organizations In the evening,
and this was formally adopted.
As will be seen by q cali elsewhere,
all the Committees are summoned to
meet at the Club House Monday even
ing at half.past sever o'clock, and a
full attendance Of sill the gentlemen
named is most earnestly requested, as
il is important that the Committees
get down to work at once. rs the time
in which to make arrangements is short.
