When the circular pledges are returned
to-day by the grOcers. druggists and pro-
fessional men to whom special letters were
sent by the committee of ten engaged in the
work of promoting the technical school
movement it is expected by the canvassers
for the institute fund that several thousand
dollars will be received in subscriptions.
Many leading druggists and grocers to
-whom these letters were sent have inter-
ested themselves actively. and it is known
of handsome donations. The committee of
ten desires it known that the circular
pledges must be returned to-day.
The committees task is well supplemented
by the activity of volunteer canvassers. In
the Stevenson Building E. 1. Fisher is con-
Quoting a personal canvass of the offices
with encouraging results. In the Indiana
Trust Company building S. E. Kiser is do
ing the same thing. NJ. H. Camden is max
ing thorough canvass OF the Law build
ing, NJ. Arbuckle Is visiting the offices in
the Lemcke building. NJ. III. Taylor and +.
J. REFINE are canvassing the When building
and other business men who are enthusiasts
tic over the technical school project are as
sisting the committee in other large bust
ness blocks where men who may be ex-
pected 10 contribute literally have offices.
VIII II. Craig. editor of the Noblesville
Ledger, yesterday sent subscription of SIS
with a letter in which he praises the move
ment: II make this offering OF my mite"
he says, with the hope that others outside
OF the capital city may follow in this most
worthy enterprise. II means the upbuild-
ing OF the States largest interests, and the
growth and prosperity of Indianapolis is of
the greatest interest to every citizen OF In
diana. The establishment OF a technical in
stitute and army post Is Of vast Importance
10 the whole State. AS business PROPOSE
ton they are worth the money. The State
of Indiana spends about half a million dol
lars annually on its three State educational
institutions. Why should the people hesi-
tate. then. to raise $50 900 for an institution
of practical twentieth century education
that would be self-supporting? 1t seems TO
ana outside of Indianapolis who would give
SIS each 10 such a fund"
The canvassers believe that Mr.. Craig's
letter will have the result of interesting
people over the State and that many SUBJ
scriptions will now be received from other
cities and towns.
w. ID. Bynum yesterday sent a subscrin-
tion OF SIS from Washington. The total
amount In subscriptions received to date by
the committee of ten is s2,1O3.50. That the
sum will be considerably augmented by the
reports to-day of the volunteer canvassers
Is certain
