PROPOSED INDIAN FUND
NOW OVER $500 MARK
That fund of $1000 for the In
dians, in the almost certain event of
their winning the Northwestern
pennant, is growing apace, although
the committee which has been ap
pointed to take charge of raising
the fund is busier today with elec
tion matters than with the money
raising project.
Tomorrow's election is interest
ing practically all the committee
members, and according to the re
port of one of the committee, the
work is being done at the ratio of
about three licks of election work
to two of fund campaign. Even at
this rate, however, the fund is grow
ing rapidly and this morning more
than $,100 had been subscribed, with
other subscriptions coming in rap
idly.
The committee in charge of the
work is composed of Henry Saad,
secretary; Charles A. Blame, Blame
Smoke House; H. D. Merritt. D. D.
Byrnes, Twin City Catering Co.;
Attorney J. M. Hunn. Peyton build
ing; L. at, Varney. Varney '& Som
mers; O. Elmer Brown, Brown's
pharmacy; F. G. Dorsey and Jake
Hill of Hill Bros.
A meeting of the committee was
to have been held this morning for
the purpose of outlining plans for
the completion of the campaign, but
owing to the general Interest in the
election it has been decided to lay
matters over until after the political
game has cooled down a bit.
The Indians do not play at home
again this season, nnd it is now
probable that unless the fund is
raised the local fans will not see the
boys in action again, aa Joe Cohn
has announced that the team would
