Convention Held At indianapolis

A convention composed OF the
disappointed element of Democrats
met at indianapolis on the 2nd
instant, and to read the glorious &C.
counts in the gold bug papers one
would think it sbounded with enthus-
iasm and good works, but look be-
hind the curtain and moments
thought would convince even The un-
suspecting that all that glitters is not
gold.
After the delegates had assembled,
and in convention they had adopted
platform, the next and greatest con-
Germ was to find man to fit il. The
delegates had talked about General
John M, Palmer, of Illinois, but he
had said "nixie" because he had large
possessions, and because of his selfish
interest, "he would vote TOR Mckinley.
Yes, he would vote for Mckinley
That's just what he said he would do
1t he would vote for Mckinley,
then he gives assent to every per-
nicious enactment of that Mckinley
party. He becomes McKinleyite, a
aud vote for Palmer

To resume, Gen. Bragg had con-
cluded they couldn't get any body Else

On last Friday afternoon the Con
gressional candidates in this district
Hon. #. Y. Fitzpatrick and Hon
Jnc. w. Langley, both of the count,
of Flovd, addressed an audience
which crowded our courthouse. TIL,
house was uncomfortably hot, but the
people were anxious to hear the
standard bearers discuss the issues
which 80 effect our national welfare
Our people have had an opportunity
to see whether Mr.. Fitzpatrick is will
ing and fully competent to meet Mr..
Langlv, as a scribler representing the

that he, (Mr. F } was not willing.

and one-sided misrepresentation and
exaggerations will not seriously effect
sensible readers, unless it arouse the
sympathy of charitable public for a
scribler who places partisanship above
what is just and true, whether he
represents Democratic, Republican or
Prohibition party.
M. Langley opened the discussion
appealing to the prejudiees and pas
siOns of hearers, who were of course
loudly demonstrative. Wordy and
pointless he sailed through space,
lighting on his head IL time to give Mr..
Fitzpatrick opportunity to deal with
real issue, which devide the two par
ties. Mr.. Fitzpatrick was logical and
forcful, and took possession of the
minds of the thinking class. He
proved himself an unfaltering Demo-
crat and gave reasons in his own way
why it is best for this country to be
for the use of the two metals
fixed ratio. His arguments were
presented with force and carried con-
viction. Both parties were satisfied
with the efforts of their cham pions,
except some Republicans, who were
not entirely satisfied wi h Mr.. Lang
ley's money views. Mr.. Fitzpatrick |
will receive the entire vote of the De-
mocracy and Mr.. Langly on account of
some feeling on the part of some OF
our best Republicans, will not receive
the hearty support of his party.

would not be quieted until after the

Davis love for the canine was so great
that he willed $4,000 to the dog.
The condition of the dog would not
improve in Philadelphia, so the physi-
clan ordered a change of climate. 1t was
suggested that he be taken to Denver.
He was taken there In the hope that
the change of air might benefit his
lungs. At the present time the dog, in
common with the family of the dead
man, is quartered at the leading fash
