The project of the Indiana Odd
Fellows to establish State home
for old and feeble members and wild
ows and orphans of members is
about to result in the fruition of the
hope of the order. The plan is 10
secure $50 acres of ground, and
erect thereon sufficient number of
handsome and substantial buildings
to accommodate all who are entitled
to the benefits of such a home. The
location of the home has not been
decided, but must be at some point
within fifty miles of indianapolis. A
aumber of places want it, and are
taking steps to secure the same. The
grand lodge will locate the institu-
ton at whatever point offers the
best inducements and will spend
perhaps $6O, 900 on the buildings.
MR.. WILL BUMGARDNER has been
secured by us to make a canvass of
the town in the interest of this paper.
We have shown the town what we
can do towards running first class
daily in the community and we want
to see what the people of the vicinity
will do towards supporting such
paper What we can do will be what
we continue to do if the people show
that they will support us. Morgan
town is first class town and she has
first class daily. 1t covers the field
better than any other paper ever pub
lished here. All the news is given in
a most attractive form. Nothing
that is offensive to the most culti-
waited tastes finds place in our col
umns. Do you think enough of it to
want 1T to continue? If so, give your
subscription to Mr.. Bumgardner
WHILE of course we can't equal
the registration that Benny Will
liams has at his tavern drawn there
by the fact that it is so near to so
many railraad connections yet we
have hostelry that has very re-
spectacle registration and that
would have been largerif the accom-
modations had been equal to the de
mand. At the Franklin last wear
nearly 5000 people were entertained
and if the house had been larger the
list would have run up much higher.
We think that record is a pretty
good one in town where there is but
one railroad and travel consequently
is confined to people who have bust
ness here.
