To Unify nemocracx

Philadelphia, Feb. 23-Steps which are
believed to be preliminary for unifica-
ton OF the rational democratic party
We're taken last night when 200 Pennsyl-
wanna democrats and some from other
states met al a dinner, No organlzat ton
stood sponsor for the meeting and All
shades of democrats were represented.
The participants We're representative
democrats. John Cadwalader, of this
city, who presided, explained the object
of the dinner: This meeting is called
for the purpose of putting democracy
on its feet he said, and to ks.ep it
from defeat hereafter Letters were
read from ex-President Cleveland. ex
Senator David B. Hill. ex-Secretary Of
the Interior Hoke Smith, ex-Secretary
of the Navy Herbert and others. all of
whom favored general reorganization Of
the national democratic party. Ad-
dresses were made by Congressman
Thayer of Massachusetts: ex-Gov-
ernor Pattisen and ,thers Thayer ii,
the course of his remarks said: There
Will never be a reorganization of the
democracy until a new foundation is

We must let bygones be by-gones and
begin at the beginning. Incompetent
and unworthy men must not be allowed
to hold Office In the cities or the towns
and delegates to state conventions must
be selected with care With these pre-
liminary steps taken In all sections of
the country it will not be difficult

tion of democrats who believe in and

meeting there next Tuesday night. One
of the probabilities is they will secure
the building of the Illinois Central from
Cedar Rapids, which of course would
make a fine traffic arrangement for us
at that point. 1t is estimated that $780,
600 will build the road If the right-of-
way csu be secured, and it is thought
the initial fund ought not to exceed
from $4,000 to $4,000. Montezuma ex-
poets to raise toward this fund 81, 900,
Millersburg $500 and Iowa City $1,000.
No donat tions are expected, but every
one contributing or making subscrip-
ton will be considered stockholder.
Short talks in favor of this movement
We're made by Capt. j. w. Carr and j.
w. Jarnagin. W. r.. Lewis spoke of the
inconvenience incurred by the county
seat having such poor railroad facilities.
For this reason alone the county seat
has for years been threatened to be
moved, but with this new line Monte
yuma will be placed on an equal foot
ing With the other towns in the county.
Charles r. Clark was called upon and
expressed himself as in sympathy with
the enterprise and made a motion that
all who were in favor of this proposed
railroad to SO signify and it is needless
to say it was unanimously carried. A
motion was made to appoint Mayor "A.
f.. Rayburn chairman of a committee,
he to select four associates, to look
after the interests of the citizens of
Montezuma in this new project. Charles
w Clark. w. L. Powell and Thomas
Harris spoke of the advantage to be
gained from a commercial standpoint.
Mr.. Lyons said If no unnecessary delay
was incurred the road should be in OPP
GRAFTON during the present year. Meet
:ngs will be held at later dates to dis
lcuSS future planS.
