Marshall County independent. (Plymouth, Marshall County, Ind.) 1897-1902, 1898-08-12

Through the kindness of George H.
Thayer, of the Indiana Novelty CON-
pany, the Independent is enabled to
give some interesting facts relative to
tie business outlook of this Plymouth
institution
The Indiana Novelty Mfg. Co. made
two very important contracts last week.
BY one of these contracts they pur-
chased 100000 rock elm strips for the
manufacture of rims and 100000 strips
for the manufacture of guards, with an
option of % per cent more. These
strips are all made by the Stewart
patent process, which cuts them out of
the log at one operation and makes
every piece flat sawed. resulting in the
grain running straight through each
piece and consequently all the way
around the rim when it is completed.
This is new process which produces
rim and guard stock superior to that
produced by any other process and
insures a uniform quality of rims and
guards. 1t will be used exclusively by
the Indiana Novelty Mfg. Co. They
Will begin receiving these strips about
September 1.
The Novelty company was also fort
unate in securing what is probably the
largest wood rim contract ever given in
this country. BY it they sold to the
Gormully Il Jeffery Mfg. Co., of Chica-
60, 100000 pairs of wood rims This Is
one of the largest and financially
strongest companies manufacturing
bicycles in the world and were the first
bicycle manufacturing company to
give the Indiana Novelty company a
standing order for wood rims. This
order was placed in January, 1851.
They have used Plymouth wood rims
ever since and probably have more than
10000 now in use on their bicycles.
The following letters endorsing their
rims have been received by the Indiana
Novelty Mfg. Co.:
Office of Gormully & Jeffry Mfg.
Co., Chicago, ILL.,, Aug. +, 1898.
Indiana Novelty Mfg. Co., Plymouth,
Ind.
Gentlemen: Having used a great
many of your single piece elm rims
during the past four years it affords us

know of no better rims. We are
also we'll pleased with the prompt at
tention which you have always given
to our orders. Yours very truly,
GORMULLY Il JEFFERY MFG. Co.
BY Thos. b. Jeffery, Sec'y.
The Crawford Mfg. Co., of Hsgers-
town, Maryland, is also one of the larg-
est and financially strongest of the
companies manufacturing bicycles and
they have recently written the Novelty
company as follows:
Office of Crawford Mfg. Co.,
HagerstOwn, Md. Aug. 4, '98.
The Indiana Novelty Mfg. Co., Plym-
outh, Ind.
Gentlemen: We take pleasure IN
stating that for the past two seasons
we have used your rims almost exclu-
sively in the output of our factory, and
that we have always found them to be
equal in quality to the samples submit
led and have proven entirely satisfac-
tory. Respectfully yours,
THE CRAWFORD MFG. Co.

that he has thus been imposed upon.

only the distinction OF the maine"

equal suffrage is guaranteed without
regard to the distinction Of sex; and
we declare that that provision Of the
Constitution, and the laws made in
pursuance thereof should be given the
fullest possible effect; and the absolute
right Of women to vote and hold Office
should be upheld and maitained.
Awe congratulate the people Of
Utah county, and the Democratic
party therein upon the clean, frugal
and honest administration OF the
county government by the officers
elected In 1896. The county govern.
ment has been administered and con.

TENDER 7, 1898.
PLATFORM AND RESOLUTIONS.

The Democratic party OF Utah coun-
ty. by its authorized delegates in con-
veution asse mbled, submit the follow
ing declaration of principles:
I've reaffirm, and endorse the
Democratic platform adopted by the
National Democratic Convention at
Chicago in 1896, and especially that
portion of said platform which declared
in favor OF the free and unlimited
coinage of silver equal with gold at
the ratio of 10 to l.. The warfare be-
tw cen the money power OF the world
and the masses Of humadity is still on.
the issue is as important now, and
more important than it was in 1895. 1t
is and must continue to be a conflict
between grinding monopolies on the
one hand and the down-trodden masses
on the other, until, by the mighty
voice Of the people Mt the Dallot box, ii
shall have been settled, aud settled
right. This is the paramount issue
before the people. 1t has hitherto
been in the State of Utah question
upon which all OF the political parties
agreed. Recently, however, by the
use OF juggling words aud meaningless
terms. calculated only to obscure the
vital question and befog the issue, the
Republicans Of Utah. with many hon.
orable exceptions, in violation OF theiI
solemn pledges and promises to the
people, have taken a backward step In
the progress of the fight until it ha;
become impossible to regard them any
longer In any other light than as thu
friends OF gold and enemies of silver,
The Only true friends OF any question
are those who fight for It's triumph,
aud fight TO win. Such Is the attitude
Of the Democratic party towards thu
free aud unlimited coinage of silver
equal with gold as money of ultimat
redemption,
