LARGEST CONVENTION
IN HISTORY OF COUNTY
Today the Democrats are hold
ing a convention at Middlebourne
to nominate county officers. It is
estimated by conservative men
that there are fully fif^eri hun
dred voters attending the conven
tion, which is by far the largest
Democratic convention that was
ever held in this county, and
among this immense crowd are
scores of Republicans who will not
vote for the Red Ticket candidates
this year. The Sistersville band
is furnishing the music. The
town is crowded with people that
it's almost impossible to get any
thing to eat either for man or
beast.
? The convention was called to
order at 10 o'clock this morning,
and E. 0. Bowers of this city, was
made temporary chairman and J.
L. Howard of Centreville, secre
tary. After Bowers had made a
speech which made Secretary
Root's famous Chicago speech
look like thirty cents, the various
committees were appointed and
the convention adjourned to meet
on the fair grounds at 1 o'clock
this afternoon, as not a third of
the people could get into the court
house. It's the banner convention
of Tyler county.
OIL MAN HAS DISAPPEARED
Samuel Shannon, an oil man
from Klondyke, W. Va., a well
known oil field worker, arrived in
"Wheeling about April 12 on hi3
way to one of the local hospitals
for treatment, and has disap
peared as though the earth had
opened and swallowed him up.
This morning a sister of the
missing man arrived in the city
and has been making diligent in
quiry for her brother. She visited
all the hotels and found where
he had stayed over night, bat
could find no trace of him since
then.
All of the hospitals of the city
have been communicated with,
and unless he is in some private
sanitarium he is not in the city.
He had a large amount of money
when he left home, and after his
arrival here he got some checks
cashed.
The search for him has been go
ing on for some time, his relatives
becoming uneasy on account of
not hearing from him. They are
now at a loss to account for his
where?bo\|ts. ? Wheeling Tele
