A recess was taken until 1:30 p. m., when the President's address was read, and the address of welcome was made by Gen. Lew Wallace.
The sessions of the State Camp of the P. 0. S. of A. continued Tuei.day with unabated interest. After the transaction of some interesting business Gen. Wallace was introduced to the order and was heartily welcomed. He delivered an interesting address which was frequently interrugted by applause. Among other things he said: 'Patriotism is the first impreiis on of a Tool and the last resort of a scoundtel.' I know that catches your attention. That remark is attributed by some people to an ancient philosopher, and by others to Samuel Johnsoh, the English author and critic. I wish to make this rem&rk comparative. A man lay dying on a battlefield ia one of the greatest of revolutionary battles, and, seeing that death was near, and as his last expression, he said: 'Tis sweet to die for one's country.' You have the two remark?, and you can determine which of the two best illustrates the sentiments of the American people. I am not a member of your order, but as I understand its principles I am with you. Where is there such an emblem as our Hag? It is always beautiful. There are some old soldiers among you and I appeal to them. They may have seen thatrllag Hying over conventions, flying over long lines of processions, saluted with music of bands and drums. They may have seen it on the church steeples or over the little red schoolhouses, but where on this earth did it ever look so beautiful and carry with it such lessons of instruction as in the smoke of battle?"
The General was very stroDg in his ideas that there should not be any sectarian schools kept up out of the public fnnds. He closed by giving the State Camp a hearty welcome.
A response was made by CJnion B. Hunt, of Winchester. The State President then read his annual report of the progrees of the order in this State during the past year.
Tuesday evening the local camp of the order held a meeting which was attended by all the visitors. Four candi" dates were initiated and the secret work was admirably exemplified.
Wednesday morning the session cf the State camp were resumed and considerable business was transacted. The following resolution was submitted and passed:
Resolved, That all the members of the State Camp P. O. S. of A. of Indiana, in State convention assembled in the city of Crawfordsville, August 11th and 12, 1S9G, tender our sincere thanks to General Lew Wallace for his eloquent patriotic and cordial address of welcome.

BUILDING ASSOCIATION LAW.
Report Prepared Ky tho Commissioner!* Appointed By tlie Governor.
The report of the commission appointed by the Governor pursuant to a resolution of the General Assembly to prepare a bill touching building and loan and saving associations was made Tuesday. The commissioners say they have given the subject the fullest possible investigation with the means at hand. They are impresstd with the fact that the situation is calling loudly for careful legislation at the earliest possible opportunity. The existing legislation, they point out, was enacted for associations of a small and local character.
The report includes a synopsis of a bill proposed for consideration at the next Legislature. It removes all limit as to capital slock, permitting it to be placed in a certificate of incorporation or increase at any amount the association sees fit to pay the necessary fees for. It confers power to issue installment stock and deposit or paid-up stock. It limits the rate of payment in installment to not more than 50 cents a week on a share and not less than the highest rate of interest taken or charged on a loan of equal amount. It permits advance payments of installment stock to be taken and interest at a rate not exceeding per cent, to be allowed for average time of the payment.
It limits the rate of profits that may be allowed to deposit, or paid-up stock, to that received for installment stock for a similar period of investment. In case of delinquency of a borrowing stockholder for three months, the association may collect the whole amount, principal and interest. The bill requires all expenses to be paid from earnings, and dividends, if any, to be cast at least semi-annually. Stock may be withdrawn upon three months' notice, and the stockholders withdrawing shall be repaid at least the amount paid by him, unless an actual loss has occurred.
It exempts the corporation as such from taxation, but requires stock not borrowed upon to be taxed against the stockholder. Stock borrowed upon to its full value is exempt. It declares any rate of interest not exceeding 8 per cent, legal. It forbids two or more associations from borrowing of each other which have the same persons as officers.

Scott Darter has sold his south Grant avenue residence property to a gentleman from Illinois, who who will move here to educate his children. Mr. Darter will build another residence on the lot just south of the property he sold.

Cal Ham is a "detective" from Jackville, and he came to town Tuesday to investigate a case. After investigating the case he investigated another case, which was a ease of beer, and this rather got the better of him, although it can be said with all truthfulness that he got to the bottom of it.

L'AET FIRST
low to Argne the Free Silver Ouentlou—A. Free Silverlte Tells lion- It OiiRlit To Ite Done.
First of all, denounce the crime of 1073. Tell your audieoce that all the' woe, misery, want, crime and cussed-: ness of the last quarter of a century is due, in part or in whole to that enormous crime. Denounce everybody and everything that then existed, exists now or may hereafter exist.
Then tell them that Washington, Jefferson and Jackson were strong advocates of free silver at a ratio of 10 to 1. No difference if it is a lie, stick to it.
Next, jump on Wall street. Next to the crime of 1S73, Wall street is the juiciest morsel you can roll under the tongue. Those Wall street chaps, you will find the greatest rascals unhung and why they have escaped the gallows so long is the mystery of this campaign.
Then take the case of any country, no odds whether it be enlightened or heathen, array their crimes and miseries'and ask your audienfl to shudder and ask them how thev like the result of gold monopoly.
Next take the Rtvoii... s.-sl ^arifF argument and wr foit! in place u? free trade. Twi.'* vary life out o* argument. ^d it up as an uwial example -old bug deviltry. For instance: ^.t. .''"Jaglana has been under the gold siiiidard since 1810, then quote, the argument used by tariff advocates to prove what free trade has done for England. Swear it was the gold standard that brought all this upon that country.
Tell them how low wages are in gold standard countries, and when the gold advocates tells you the low wages are caused by free trade, swear that wages are better in those countries than here. Charge drought, flood, famine, cyclones and double tailed political comets to gold.
Array labor against capital/ Tell your audience that any and every man who has- more wealth than himself is an arrant scoundrel and a Wall street demon.
Tell them no honest man would jingle gold in his pocket and no honest heathen would worship a gold god. Nothing but silver goes and that at a ratio of 10 to 1.
