Governor Ralston has issued a proc-1 lamation fixing February 23 as ale i gal holiday in Indiana, celebrating Washington's birthday which comes | this year on Sunday. He asks a care-! ful and thoughtful observance of the• day. It was with real pleasure that the many friends of the Hon. Charles Edvards of Huntington learned this morning that Governor Ralston had I named that splendid and well quali- 1 lied gentleman as the successor ofj Frank Payne, who recently resigned from the Public Service Commission. Mr. Edwards is a banker and business man and the fact that men of every party from his home city endorse him Is proof that he is the right kind.
