COLUMBUS, Ind, April I1.-This pretty
little city was thrown open to-day and to-
night to the Republicans of the Fourth
district They accepted the invitation TO
come and partaxe of the good things pre-
pared, and arrived in goodly numbers. The
love feast. which took place in the City
Hail tonight, was certainly a success in
point of attendance and genuine enthu-
siasm. The big hall was crowded. and
great many people were compelled to
stand. 1t was a representative Columbus
audience gathered to listen to some OF the
best orators of the State Hundreds OF
women were present, and many OF them
were brave enough to face the inclement
weather in their brightest array.
Candidates began arriving in the city on
l.. early morning trains. and by o'clock
.l-,s evening most of those. who are asking
for nomination TO state Offices were here.
Three of the candidates for Governor who
had been expected failed TO arrive. These
were John L. Griffiths. w. T. Durbin and
w. S. Haggard. James s. Dodge and l..
G. Hogate were on hand early iH the day.
and Frank Posey arrived on of the
afternoon trains. The hotels OF the city
were crowded. The ST. Denis was head
quarters for the visitors, although a num-
ber of them stopped at the other houses.
During the afternoon the delegates TO to-
morrow's convention began arriving. A
brass band played lively airs I'm front OF
the hotels. and, although the weather was
anything but pleasant, there was much en-
thusiasm that the rainy morning had
failed to dampen. In the afternoon the

ing trains and welcomed the visitors The
