BLUNDER IN THE PETITION.
Cambern's Name VIII Not Go ON De-
catur Republican Ticket.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
GREENSBURG, Ind, Oct. 2S.--The cleo
ton commissioners of this county decided
to-day that the petition of Cambern, of
Rush county. for judge and Roland, for
prosecutor was defective, in that it failed
to state that the petitioners desired to vote
for the candidates. They also decided that
the petition filed in behalf of Judge Myers,
of this county. complied with the require
ments of the statute, and his name will,
therefore, appear on the Republican ticket
fer judge in this county. The office of
prosecutor is vacant by reason of ,ne de-
fective petition. So far John L. Davis, the
Democratic candidate, has no opposition in
this and Rush county, the petition filed
in Rush has the same defects as the one
filed here which petitions were prepared at
the office of Smith & Cambern. in Rush
vile.
Mr.. Cambern's friends claim the error was
made by the person who copied the petit
tons from the original drafts. They also
claim that Abercrombie had authority
to withdraw the certificates of nomination
hled by the RuSn county convention, Mr..
Cambern intending, after the petition was
filed to request, under the act of 1897, that
ton. thus avoiding any grounds of contest
by reason of an alleged illegal nomination.
Rush county has now defeated herself and
lost the Republican judgeship in this coun-
ty, as there will be two Republican candi-
dates, Myers in Decatur and Cambern in
ton of things exists, and If it were not for
the present election system the people I'm
righteous indignation here would sit down
hard on the whole performance.

SEYMOUR. Ind. Oct. 2S.-The Browns

speaking of the statement sent from Sey-

was settled on Oct. 49, 1897, by a decisive
victory for its present location" Every
body in Indiana knows that the election
resulted in a majority of 925 in favor of
Seymour. AT the meeting of the Repub-
lican county committee. twenty-seven out
of thirty-two precinct committeeman were
present. The first vote fusion resulted
sixteen TO eleven in its favor. On motion
of jefferson Hogg to make it unanimous
the vote stood twenty-five to five, the OPP
position votes being cast by Brownstown-
ties. The convention which was held TO
nominate the fusion ticket was composed

ficers at the camp was that they
thought too much about personal pre-
ferment and the way to get it, and
too little about their men. Instead Of
drilling the men Systematically in
small squads, they were drilled inces-
sanity all together all day long. The
men weakened and grew sick under the
strain~on their vitality and went to the
hospital, while the officers won praise
for their strict discipline.
The anxiety of a number of officers
to maintain reputation as strict drill
masters will get them in trouble after
the regiment is mustered out Many
men who suffered at Chickamauga from
abuse at the hands of officers are
waiting for an opportunity to thrash
those officers, and there will be lots of
fun after the regiment is mustered out,
Several officers might be named whose
popularity in the regiment is confined
TO their ownselveS.
The men Of the Fourteenth for the
most part have had enough Of soldier
ing. They will not take much inter
est in the national guard, except for

First Sergeant William McConnelly,

left the hospital and is spending the
sunny afternoons trying to get back
his strength. He said yesterday: MANY
of the men in the Third regiment owe
their lives to the Red Cross nurses,
The country can never repay them for
their service during this war"
At the hospital everything is done
for the men that can be done. Only
the best and purest foods are used and
Ice cream is made three times a day
for the convalescing patients. Fifty
gallons Of milk are delivered at the hos
pital every day, in addition to other
choice foods which are provided for the
government. The hospital authorities
do not encourage donations OF delica-
cies, and in fact, have to refuse them
in many cases.
It can be said With a great deal Of
assurance that the hospital at the fort
is one of the best in the country. With
a daily average Of 100 patients they
have only lost two, which is an excel
lent record considering the fact that
several have died OUT OF each Of the
st. Paul and Minneapolis hospitals out
of much smaller number.
Work on the new hospital building Is

will be ready for occupancy Dec. I,
