HAUGHYILLE'S CONVENTION.
Town Officers Will Be Nominated To-
Night in the Suburb.

+, The Haughville Republican town conven-
ton will be held tonight in the public
reading room, at 1880 o'clock. The candi-
dates for the various offices have been
hustling ION the quiet since the announce
ment of their candidacy, and the exact
strength of each candidate is unknown.
1t is the belief of the knowing ones that
each nomination will be holly contested.
The Republicans are all united, which gives
them an advantage over their opponents
who are divided into what are known as
the Progressive Element" and the solid
Democracy factions The latter class is
composed of the ward heelers and spoils-
men who in general have been disappoint-
ed in getting an office. The recent action
of the town board in granting the franchise
of the streets to the Citizens Railway Com
pany, after which ii vainly attempted to
comment among the independent voters
The recent action of the school board
which is composed of rock-ribbed Demo-
Gratis has also given the Independent yot-
ers subject for thought.
w. l.. Hobbs and .. 5. Wright have an
nounced themselves as candidates for the
nomination for town clerk. In the race for
the treasurership are DR.. A. l.. Preston
and Samuel j. Bartel. Alfred =. Turpin
and Hubbard Carey, colored, are making
the race for marshal.
The trustee for the third district holds
over for one year, and this leaves only
the trustees for the first and second dis
tricts to be elected. For trustee of the
first district Thomas Powderly and w A.
Lockwood have announced themselves as
Thomas are out for the nomination of
trustee for the second district

FOOLED THE WEATHER BUREAU.
SnowstOrm and Cold Wave Came Day
in Advance.

The snowstorm which came stealthily upon
the residents Of this city and vicinity early
yesterday morning arrived just twenty-four
hours in advance of the time for which
IL was billed at the office of the weather
bureau. There were reports of a cold wave
in the Northwest, and the indications were
that it would come down the Mississippi
and across central and northern Indiana,
but ii acquired a much higher speed than
was anticipated and got here in time TO
surprise the weather officers as we'll as
the laity. Mr.. Wappenhans's reports indi-
Gated that last night and to-day would he
colder, possibly very much colder. The
snow that fell yesterday seemed TO have a
penchant for getting into just the places
where 1t was not wanted. The wind seemed
to be rushing to a central point from all
directions at the same time, and carrying
with IL the fine snowfiakes. 1t. laughed at
the efforts of pedestrians carrying umbrel-
las to ward ii off. and down at the Union
Station paid no attention whatever to the
train sheds but simply fiOated around and
under the sheds, covering everything.
The drop in the temperature, it is feared.
Will injure a large part of the wheat crop
in the southern part of the State, some of
which had jointed. 1t may prove damag-
ing to the wheat in central and northern
Indiana as we'll. In the southern part of
the State the apple crop has been injured.
in the lake regions the crop was not so far
advanced and may not be injured. Grapes
are thought to be uninjured.

THE REPUBLICAN YEAR.
What Business Man Predicts for Next
November.

II do not believe that the politicians fully
appreciate the situation in this State" said
a Republican whose business takes him
among the people in the manufacturing
towns They cannot unless they go among
the people, and particularly wage-earners
in all lines There has been a revolution
in sentiment. l everywhere meet men VINO
voted for Cleveland two years ago who are
anxious for the day to come when they
can vote for a Republican candidate for
Congress. Every day l meet men who de-
clare that they have cast their last Demo
cratic vote-not one here and there, but
many. If men openly make such declara-
tions, what will hundreds of the silent
men do in the privacy of the voting booths?
/ have put the Republican plurality in In
in the opinion that it will reach that hg-
ure. You know that / was not hopeful
Republican in 1892, and Ii was because
mingled with the same people who are now
so decidedly heading toward the Republican
party, and then they We're in doubt. Then
they were listening 10 theories; now they
know The man whose wages have been
reduced from $3.50 10 81 a day is in no
frame of mind to be treated with more
theories. He has just two facts In his
mind, which are that he had full wages
under Republican rule. and that he has
lost one-third of his wages and full en-
ployment under Democratic rule. He Will
stay Republican until he gets his wages
back. No, 1 will not put the Repuolcan
plurality in Indiana less than 10000 Nor
would you if you could hear what l hear
on my trips"

NOT BOUND TO REFUND
City Not Responsible for Costly
Blunders of the Sullivan Crowd.
City Attorneys Opinion on Cases Where
Errors Have Been Made in Assess
ing for improvements.

The opinion of the city attorney was sub
mitted TO the Works Board yesterday upon
the question of the liability of the city to
reimburse property owners for the amounts
overpaid by them on account of erroneous
assessments, several Of which, on the part
of the last administration, have been dis
covered. W. NJ Adams presented claim
for 1914, which he showed had been coll
lected from him in excess of the amount
which he was in equity required to pay.
The error was caused by mistake in the
assessment roll.
The Works Board, upon the showing
made, issued a voucher upon the controller
for the amount. When the claim was pre-
sented TO Controller Trusler he refused to
pay it, and the opinion of the city attorney
was sought upon the question. In his opin-
ion he holds that the controller was right
in refusing to pay the voucher, for the
reason that there was no fund to the credit
Of the department of public works from
which the sum could have been paid. The
city attorney also says ne is of the opinion
that the city is not legally bound to relm-
burse Mr.. Adams or others similarly stu
ated, because of the fact that the amount
was voluntarily paid, without objection or
protest. This he advances as a mere legal
f-OPODASACAAS saying lilct, do ODilSd-
ton and in conscience, If the city can be
supposed to have conscience or moral OBJ
legation, it should reimburse the persons
who have overpaid. AS it would in most
cases prove more expensive to the city to
correct the assessment roll than to pay
the amount overpaid to those who have
overpaid, the city attorney recommended
that the Council be asked to appropriate
a sum for the reimbursement of property
owners who have been losers on account
or the mistakes and incompetence of the
old assessment bureau. The law did not
contemplate the possibility of mistakes in
the department, and made no provision for
such cases
The board addressed a communication to
tne controller asking him TO request the
council to transfer the sum of 81 900 from
tne sewer fund to fund to be used in
relmDurSing persons who have overpaid as
