NICHOLSON REPORTS RUSH OF CITIZENSHIP TO "DRY" PETITIONS

' For the dry cause, Timothy Nicholson, veteran leader, has Issued the following statement: - The sentiment for state-wide prohibition for Indiana secured a wonderful uplift at the last election when five more states voted for prohibition. The committee to circulate petitions to the approaching legislature for statutory prohibition secured persons in every election precinct in Wayne county to assist In the work. Those Ux the precincts outside the city seared the petitions with specific instructions last week; and some -remarkable reports have come In from , some places. In one vicinity only one person had declined to sign the petitions; in another only two preferred not to sign. In the city so many offered to assist intho work three orders of petitions were necessary to Bupply the demand.

The work began In the city on Monday, and it was the Intention to complete the canvass this week but owing to the disagreeable weather the time will be extended. Many men In the city who voted wet two years ago have openly declared it another election was called they would vote dry, and large numbers who would not vote the saloons out of Richmond are enthusiastic for state-wide prohibition and are glad to sign the petitIons. The Bennett Gordon blind tiger scare is no more. Every Intelligent person knows there are more blind tlgera where legal saloons exist than in dry territory and Indiana has a very efficient bind tiger law by which these illegal nuisances can be easily destroyed if county and city officials will do their duty.

REEVES HEADS MOVE TO OPEN COMMUNITY TRAINING SCHOOL

Scott was constituted to report recommendations for the establishment of a similar school here next year to run for twenty-four nights. The work as outlined by Rev. Mr. Pomes follows with organization of a college with a regular course of study including prescribed and elective courses covering a period , of three years at the end of which diplomas are awarded, provided the school is conducted according to the standards of

the International Sunday school' com: mittee. The great benefit derived is supplying of the Bible schools with a corps of especially trained and efficient teachers.
