The Chicago Tribune notes that the Fort Wayne and Pittsburgh route achieves speed not by high velocity but by long uninterrupted runs. It cites the Pennsylvania Railroad and routes from Altoona to Harrisburg as the longest non stop stretches. It also mentions a New York bound train leaving Chicago at 11 am with minimal stops. The Adel Gazette reports Dallas county Republicans opposing primaries and restoring delegate conventions for nominations.
