the Denver Democratic Club, Q
Marion Co.

There Is probability that Demo-
Gratis Of Marion county will organize
what is to be known as Denver
Democratic club, which will have as
dts object the sending of big dele
cation from here to the national con-
vention to be held in Denver, next
summer. A number of the leading
Democrats of the city are interested.
nhe plan Is to effect the organiza-
ton Immediately, to elect officers and
ht once begin devising ways and
means for having Marion county well
represented at the convention. 1t is
Ipurposed to secure as large a MEM
bership as possible and to have each
member pay a small assessment at
stated intervals up until the time for
going to Denver. In this way, enough
money could be raised, it Is believed,
to defray the cost of chartering a
special car In which the Marion coun-
ity delegation could make the trip.
| "I think the plan Is good one,"
said a well-known Democrat, Tues
day. "and I for one am ready to take
hand in the plan. 1t would be
great for Marion county to be well
represented and send its delegation
in private car"
ut is likely that meeting will,

purpose of taking action on the mat.

Surprise.
DECISION IS REACHED
After Thorough Investiga.
ton Has Been Completed.
Within a Few Days Complete
New Board Of Library Trustees
will be Selected.

After spending several weeks in
vestigatlng the situation Mayor
Scherff announced Wednesday
morning that witnih a few days
he will appoint an entirely new
board of library trustees to sue
coed the present board which has
been in Office for long period.
Two years ago the mayor
searched the records and was un-
able to find when the various men,
bers were appointed and when
their respective terms expired. Even
the members themselves were not
Informed on the subject. At that
time the mayor reappointed the
entire board for two years.
In order that the matter may
be placed in a satisfactory shape
for succeeding mayors. Mr.. Scherff
Will appoint three members for a
term Of four years. and three
more for term of two years.
The next mayor of the city will
then have the appointment of
three members for the long term.
The mayor has refused to state
whether any of the present board
will be reappointed or to state
how many of them will be ap-
pointed. He promises to make his
appointments within week.
The board at present is COM
posed of DR.. T.. H Raffensperger,
president; Fred Dombaugh, secre
tary and treasurer; NJ. Waddell,
J. j. Crawley, II. N. Quigley and
Frank Huber. The members serv
ed without any compensation and
the clerk of the board is even
required to pay the postage out
Of his own pocket.
To the members OF the board
the proposed action of the mayor
came as a surprise. Five years
ago through the efforts of DR..
n. II 'Raffensperger the original
offer of twenty-five thousand dol
lars was secured from Andrew
Carnegie. Since that time the
board has worked hard until the
present time when it has all
but completed fine library build
ing, of which the city may we'll
feel proud. While none of the
members will make a statement it
is evident that they do not think
that their labors should go entirely
