Convention Will Hesssemble,
The Democratic county convention
will be reassembled during the first
week of October to nominate a candi-
date for Coroner. That was the con-
clusion arrived at by the Democratic
county committee in session in Belle-
fonte Monday afternoon. The Demo-
eratic party is a parly of the people
and not of the bosses, therefore no one
except those lawfully vested with the
power to do so dares to name CaD-
didates.
The committee meeting was one full
of enthusiasm, and plans were laid by
which Democratic supremacy will be
maintained in Centre county.
