VERY CORDIA L WAS GREETING TO BOOSTERS Richmond Commercial Club's First Trade Trip Wednes day Proved to Be Unquali fied Success. (Continued from Page One.) APPLES POURING III For the First Indiana Apple Show. (Palladium Special) INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 2 In point of the exposition itself, the success of the first Indiana Apple Show is now fully assured. While the show does not open at Indianapolis until Nov. 6, the entry lists are filling very rapidly and the apples are pouring in upon the Indiana Refrigerating Co., which is holding them without cost for exhibit ors. The entries are coming from the best known horticulturalists who say that they will be in attendance not only to win prize ribbons but to gain the education the show will offer. In the lists, too, are many growers who operate home orchards on a small CORRUPT PRACTICE LAW T0J TESTED For First Time in County at Small Towns Elections Tuesday Next. ard, R. U Kelly, John H. Johnson, and Henry S. Clarke. Only the steer ing gear had been injured in the fall. As for the direct financial benefit of the Journey, one Richmond mer chant secured a contract worth several hundred dollars at one stop, another got two large orders, and many others added names to their list of patrons. The local men were interested in studying the methods of the small town dealers, and it is generally con ceded that the trip was worth several times its cost to the club members. Visit at Liberty. The need of one or more penal farms to supplant the county jails in Indiana waB one of the main points brought out by Chas. Jordan in his response to the address of welcome by Dr. Garrett i Pigman at the Liberty Court House i ' where a small crowd gave the visitors m. hearty welcome. Better roads and an Interurban between Richmond and rLlberty were advocated by Jordan, -who added that he hoped for their realization soon. He reiterated the statement that the trip was only a (neighborly visit, and that the Rich mond men did not come to steal any 1 trade. President Kelly, representing the 1 educational interests of Wayne County, repeated the friendly sent! troent and discussed the standing of the state in scholastic lines. The con clusion of his talk was "Sooner or i later we hope to come down to you on the trolley!" C. W. StlvcrB, publisher of the "Herald." asserted that there should certainly be a spirit of co-operation between Richmond and Liberty, for Liberty had contributed many of its best men to Wayne County. Editor Behmeyer, of the "Express," tendered the visitors an invitation to partake of the contents of a cider barrel. Two buckets of cider were disposed of at Abington, the first stop on the trip. A reception committee, consist ing of the entire populace, was stand ins at the village square when the autos arrived, and they engaged in in teresting conversations with the visit ors. A load of literature describing the opportunities for trade with Rich mond, was circulated among the Ab lngtontans, and all seemed enthusias tic over the visit. Charles Beck, post master and proprietor of the general tore In Falmouth, furnished Grimes' Golden apples for the crowd, and en Joyed a discussion of their mutual troubles with Postmaster E. M. Haas. Scorned by a Cow. Bentonville tendered the party a lively reception, where the chairman of the reception committee, and owner of the store, passed around the cigars. : The residents of Bentonville were glad to greet the Richmond delegation. The only one who seemed pleased to have 'the visitors leave was a cow. As the I last car left the village square, the animal gave a frantic lunge backward I -with its pedal extremities, and almost rlitteralW kicked the machine out of town. Owing to the darkness, only short stops wet?) made at Dublin, Cambridge City. Milton, Germantown, and Center-!llle. The couAfry along the route was of !the greatest interest to the Richmond I men. The crops seemed excellent, and the land highly productive, but the ; rapid destruction of the natural re- sources was also evident. The large trees are being cut down, and only a 'few small ones are being raised to take their place. A statute providing for uniform good roads in Indiana was atxongly advocated by members of the party after a ride over several bumps. Thirteen proved the hoodoo for the trip as usual. The heads of the ex pedition tried to obviate this by having no number 13, but car 14, which was substituted for 13, broke a spring at East Germantown, broke the cooling a t. m . I ysiem m nuuri uisiaucr luniifi, auu sent out a call to be towed in from Centerville. The members of this group arrived in Richmond at half past eight. Several spirited contests are antici pated in the election of officials of the incorporated towns of the county on next Tuesday. Tickets of the different parties have been known for some time and as the election draws closer practically the sole topic of interest among the voter? is centered on the el ection in Boston, Centerville, Cam bridge City, Dublin, Mt. Auburn. East ! next forty-eight SHOW IIOWEXPECTED According to Local Weather Bureau Forecast. No Indian summer for Richmond in 1911 is the belief entertained now by Prof. B. W. Kelly, head of the High school weather bureau. Prof. Kelly to day stated that the present cold spell had cooled the entire country to much that no more warm days could be expe rienced. He says, that we will have a few days of comparative warmth yet, but that in general, the cold is here to stay.

The show apples that are now reach ing cold storage in Indianapolis are winter varieties good old Rambos, Orimes' Golden, Vandevers, Northern Spies and fifty or sixty other kinds long known to HooBier growers and consumers. They nave Deen careiuuj : gathered and packed and they repre sent the very choicest output of one of the greatest apple years in the history or Indiana. Several of the growers have each sent twenty barrels and from single box exhibits up to com plete orchard displays and county ex hibits, the entire premium list will be well filled with contestants. "The names on the entry lists," said Dr. Harry E. Barnard, superintendent of the show, "include many men who have never been known as profession al horticulturalists, "but who find pleasure in developing orchards around their homes. The number who will display apples is growing at a sur prising rate, and some of the old pro fessional producers must look to their laurels for the contests for ribbons in all classes is going to be very keen. We already have on hand enough ap ples to give an immense exposition, while the quantity will be still further increased before the show opens. We are expecting the apple consumers of Indiana to take as much interest in the show as the growers of the fruit. I am satisfied that the show is going to be one of the most popular ex position ever held in the state. It will be the first opportunity the public has ever had to see what Indiana is really doing in growing apples, and we shall surprise those who have thought it was necessary to bring several million dol lars worth of fruit into this state year after year, when we can get the apples out of our own orchards and keep this money at home. nrnvlHn t he first tost in this rnnnrv r.f the new corrupt practices 8tatuteJ vatory this noon was the highest passed by the last legislature.

In case any one of the candidates should falsify his itemized statement of election ex penses and promises, he is liable to prosecution for perjury, the prosecut ing attorney being charged to make a vigorous prosecution. There has been no end of complaint by some of the candidates that the law is burdensome and a nuisance, insofar as it applies to the incorporated towns. Some of the offices pay but $10 per annum.

The nom inees on the citizens' ticket were nam ed by petition while the Republicans held a convention to nominate Frank Hunt for councilman, to oppose H. S.

The citizens' ticket in addition to Mack and Wetzel, includes C. N. Hatfield for town trustee and Francis L. Thomas for clerk and treas urer. Both the Democrats and Republi cans are active at Hagerstown. The nominations of both parties were made at convention assemblies. The Re publican ticket includes Frank White- sell, treasurer, Mark Werking, clerk, E. A.

The Demo cratic ticket includes Frank Geisler, treasurer, Harry Stoltz, clerk, Ben Ab bott, marshall. Loren Helmsing and John Clark councilmen from the fourth and fifth wards.

The Women's Homestead Association, through Mrs. Charlotte Smith, has announced it had aligned practically every Massa chusetts woman's organization, with memberships totaling 100,000 against the electors of the Republican candi date for Governor, Louis A. Frothing ham, because he is a bachelor. The resolution adopted reads in part: "Be it resolved. That no man should be elected Governor of Massachusetts, no matter what his party affiliations are, who is a bachelor. Bachelors shirk their duties to society, are failures, al ways have been and always will be because they are not good citizens." Athletics Will Be Probable Pennant Contenders in 1912 CLEVELAND, O..

And he has Strunk on the bench, waiting for one of the older men to show signs of going back. Thomas and Lapp are right in their prime, while Egan, bought from Baltimore, is said to be the equal of either except in experi ence. Manager Harry Davis, of the Naps says he is one of the best catch ers he ever watched. Connie will not have to worry about his pitching staff, either. Bender showed stronger this year than he has for several seasons, while Coombs and Plank show no signs of deteriorating. Krause was better this fall than ear lier in the season and Morgan is ont a has-been yet.

With Davis as manager of the Naps, President Somers looks for Cleveland to make a better showing, but as Davis has never had any managerial experience the season must be played before his positive managerial ability may be measured.

The amended complaint must be fil ed with the court by Saturday, but it is likely that the case will not be tried for several weeks, and then not in the Wayne circuit court, as it is under stood a motion for a change of venue will be filed. Witnesses for both the complainant and the defense were present, some coming all the way from Peru. The case was set for trial at 10 o'clock, the jury having been sum moned and most of the jurors had as sembled when the action was postpon ed. Although the action Is directed ag ainst the city of Richmond, the muni cipality has no more interest in the case financially than that it will hold the bondsmen of Trippeer and Sons, contractors, for whatever amount of damages is awarded, should there be any. On Wednesday attorneys for the defense served notice on the attor neys for Mrs. Hawkins that the case would be thrown out of court before noon on Thursday, being summarily ended, according to their opinion on a technicality of law. By some it was understood that the petition to am end the complaint was made primarily to thwart any such possibility of the case ending on a technicality.
