A LITTLE NONSENSE.
HIS CREpITORs,

Autographs the bard one thought
Would from him be wildly sought
BY the mob.
Thought that to enough indite
Might at times become a quite
Tiresome job.
Yesterday saw the bard
Seeking credit for some lard,
Meat, and such;
And / asked him out OF hand
II his name were In demand
Very much.
Thus the poets answer came:
Very seldom doth my name
Albums deck
People want my autograph,
Quoth the poet with a laugh,

general; George w. Self, Corydon. for
reporter of the Supreme and Appellate
courts; and David Myers. Greensburg.
for Judge of the Appellate court. Each
was was named by reclamation In the
order here set forth.
The last unopposed nomination was
followed by the big fight of the con-
vention-that for the governorship.
The candidates = James E, Watson,
Rushville; Charles w. Miller, Goshen;
William l. Taylor. Indiana polls; and
Hugh T. Miller, Columbus-sat on the
stage and kept close tally on the vot-
ing.
The delegates were wild with en-
thusiasm and the galleries were crowd
ed and delirious with excitement. 1t
was the biggest fight in the republican
party for years and the eyes of the
state were on the contest
other nominations and their candi-
dates were taken up in the order that
follows:
Lieutenant Governor-Emmet Branch,
Martinsville; and Fremont Goodwine,
Williamsport.

Judge of the Supreme Cour-John H.
|Gillett, Hammond; and Quincy Myers,

The feature of yesterday afternoons
session was Governor Hanly's speech.
He made great cleaning. Many of the
delegates and spectators were against
him when he started but inside of a
few minutes he had the big audience
with him, swaying it at his will and
drawing from it tumultuous applause.
1t was a great personal triumph and
many regard it as the best convention
speech ever held in Indiana.
The temper of the delegates on the
local option law was plainly revealed
when they jumped to their feet with
shout and threw hats and flags in
air when the governor declared that
present temperance laws must not be
weakened, that any proposed local OPP
ton law must not designate as the unit
anything smaller than the county and
that it should supplement and rein
force the remonstrance laws. The dem
onstration following this declaration
was the greatest of the afternoon.
All the speakers We're we'll received
yesterday but the triumph of Governor
Hanley was the feature of the day.

Some Things to Ponder Over.

We are all worshippers at the feet
of chance.
How short the miles are on a honey
moon trip.
It is greater to grant a favor than
to receive one.
Nature and Wisdom always vote the
same ticket.
Fidelity bought with money awaits
only higher bid.
The greatest coward in battle talks
the loudest when victory is won.
Fortune may take away riches, but
it never stole a love worth having.
The man who profits by crime is far
from innocentin the eyes of the Great
Judge.
If you would be happy, live today
for today's sake with no thought for
the morrow.
Apprehension has caused more
wakeful hours than all the real troub-
les of the world.
