GOOD THINGS AHEAD

President Lewis of the T. P. A. Has All Kinds of Plans. AFFAIRS OF LOCAL POST. We Notice that a great. itnany amendments to the national constitution and by-laws have been propos ed by the national officers as well as members of the Various divisions, and among them the most important ones are as follows: One providing for a ritual, which will bo a guide for the transaction of the business of all posts. This idea is certalnly a good one. Another one is to make theage of admission not. under 21 years of age. At the present time it. is from is to T,7,. Another o.e is to raise the expert Scountant's salary to .:." a year. We think it, is a poor time to raise salaries. One or two others provide, that where a member receives injuries, causing total disability, he shall be paid $2-" a week for two years, if lie should be disabled that Ions. The salary of the president is touchad upon, it being proposed that his salary be raised from !hx to .S4,nm per annum, and all expenses paid while engaged in the work, and it shall be his duty to give his exclusive time and attention to the work of the association, and that he shall be elected to hold office for two years. In this ease the national board of directors will no doubt dispense with the National Representative. We think this suggestion a good one. Brother Ryan of Terre Haute does not want the state president and secretary to go to the national convention as delegates. He claims that it is improper representation, as the smaller state divisions have more delegates to the number of members than the large divisions have. We think Mr. Ryan's suggestion is alright. The members of the Muncie Post are anxious that .f.'iOO shall be paid to the beneficiary on proof of death from any 'cause, of a member, and they also deeire to establish an animal premium. In order to pay this benefit. It is also proposed by Bro. Ryan, that any sums In excess of $123,0o in reserve funds at the end of each fiscal year shall be transferred to the benefit sum, and that fifty per cent of the surplus in the expense funds at the end of each fiscal year shall be likewise transferred. This amendment is a good one. Every member of Post C should attend the meeting to be held next Saturday night. Our brand new. president, James M. Lewis, will take the reigns of government for the following otift consecutive days. During his administration we understand that we ere going to have a meeting once every month, that all matters of importance and interest will be taken up and ciscussed, and that the meeting will be conducted along parliamentary lines. Also that every eligible person in Richmond will be a T. P. A. before the year is out. We also understand that we are going to have a membership committee, that will get new members, a railroad committee, that will look after the interests of Post C as regards railroads, end shall keep in close touch with Btate and national chairmen of this committee. We also expect to have a chairman of a hotel committee, that will have all the hotels in this part of the state in first class condition betore the year is out. He also says that t is going to have a chairman of the Iress committee, who will write less and say more. The new administration has our best wishes, and we knowJim Lewis will make us an excellent president. The committee appointed by President Lebo to confer with the city authorities, as well as the traction authorities, to endeavor to re-establish inter-urban freight service over the Dayton and Western, and to allow the freight cars on the T. H. 1. fc E. to come into the city, has not yet made its report. We sincerely trust that in the interets of the suffering shippers of Richmond, that such influences can be brought, to bear as will cause an arrangement to be entered into that will jglve us relief from the present situation. A prominent merchant in a nearby town, located on the Dayton and Western, stated a few days ago, that he would like to buy his goods in Richmond if he could get them promptly, but in view of the fact that, he had interurban service to Dayton, he was buying all of his goods in Dayton. This Is the case with numbers of other merchants, and those who are kind enough to give Richmond some of their business, are buying the most of their goods in Dayton on this account, and etill the Richmond merchants must put Tip with it. We sincerely hope that the situation will soon be relieved. W. H. Q. Always uniform in quality and flavor. Pathfinder. 5 cents. BARBERS ASK AIO OF THE MINISTERS Want Them to Fight Sunday Opening.

Never before was such a variety of Easter novelties in the way of favors and gifts shown on the market as there has been this season. One would almost be led to believe that it was Christmas time. Just as many pretty things were shown for the older, as well as younger folk. The booths and bazaar counters fairly groaned under the weight of rabbits, chickens and eggs. Some of these were arranged in beautifully decorated baskets and they made a very pretty gift. Several mothers purchased birds' nts of straw made of various colors, hid small candy eggs in the corners of the rooms and let the children fill the nest themselves. One of the new novelties this year was a Teddy rabbit made in brown and white. Easter cards were sold in large numbers, these being unusuallv pretty and inexpensive this year.

President Gompers, of the American Federation of ltbor, has issued Instructions which will result in gatherings of laboring men on that day in every state in the union. While no individuals are named in President Gomper's call, there is a general understanding that the move ment is in the nature of a protest against the nomination of Secretary Taft. Roosevelt Pulls for Taft. President Roosevelt has been making desperate efforts to reconcile labor leaders to the nomination of Secretary Taft. His strenuous message of January 31 was largely for the purpose of mollifying the labor leaders, and his order to Commissioner of Labor Neal to investigate the threatened dismissals and reduction in pay of railway employes ae another attempt to calm the ruffled feelings of labor leaders. It remains to be seen whether or not the administration's numerous attempts to placate labor have removed the feeling of hostility against Secretary Taft engened?red by the latter's decisions in labor cases as a Judge in Ohio.
