Notes
BY T. c. II.

Everybody over the state is talking
OF the Chattanooga national conven-
ton which convenes June 10. Indiana
will have sixty-four delegates and they
have been instructed to vote for Schuy-
Ter Logan for national secretary Mr.
Logan is an Indiana man, his home be-
ing in Lafayette. He is at present act
ing as national organizer under the IL
tie of assistant to the secretary.
Post G. is very much pleased to see
a T. P. A. column appear this week in
the Indianapolis Star. w. S. Over
street is press chairman and is an old
newspaper man. He has given us
column, well written and full of inter-
esting news. 1t is to be hoped that he
keeps up this good work and joins the
balance of the Indiana active posts
With a new regime in power at In
dianapolis determined to boost things
along, no doubt, will be made during
the coming year. Post B has the larg-
est field in Indiana in which to labor,
and the boys should not let any grass
grow under their feet this year. Get
busy post B and show your mettle.
Omer Whelan is the only Richmond
T. P. A. that still carries with him
fond recollections Of the Fl. Wayne
convention. He is now busy with the
railroad company trying to secure q
low rate of fare to and from Fl. Wayne
and if successful will make weekly
visits to that city. 1t seems Omer
found long lost friend while at the
convention and from present indica
tions he don't propose to let this friend
get lost again.
A great effort is being made to have
a special train called the 'Logan's In
diana Special to take the delegation
from the Hoosier state to Chattanooga
Mr. James Crawford, state chairman
of the railroad committee, has the af-
fair in charge and if any one in Indi-
ana can bring the special train about
he surely can. In all probability post
C will join the special and go to Chat
tanooga via Louisville over the L. &
N This train, if run, is promised by
the l. & N. officials to be the finest
special train ever sent over the road.
1T will consist of solid Pullman coaches
of the latest type with observation
| cars attached. A stop-over at Nam
moth Cave will be made together
with other side attractions to be TAX
en- in.
Hegger's tomatoes are now in full
bloom.
Mcclellan of the Richmond Bak-
ing Co., came in Friday night loaded
down with flowers and plants that he
claims were given him by friend
over near Sidney, o. On investigation
it is leraned that he has been carrying
on a secret trade for just such plants
and flowers all over his territory and
has about enough on hand to start in
the flower business. The commodity
used in trade is the famous "Grandma's
| 'Lasses Cookies that he manages to
work off for plants on his customers.
How he settles with the company for
the plants has not been learned.
The following clipped from Kleed-
er's Marion column:
The Terre Haute Star and the Rich
mond Palladium failed US last week.
What's wrong boys: Too much Fort
Wayne?'
Not our fault, old man. Uncle
Billy Ryan and yours truly are ever
on the job.
The following is clipped from Ryan's
