It ia understood TINT a Btrong delegation from
tho Bonrd OF Trade will loaye this city for spriug
tlela this evening or Tnosday morning for
the purpose OF urging npon the Legislature the
right OF grain owners and their representatives
to manage their own business In tGoir own way.
The Board has always bcen Of the opinion TINT
tho Stato had no right to assume direct control
Of tho inspection Of GRIM, but yielded tho point
gracefully in the hope that tho businoHs would
le conducted by the Stato officials iu such way
"a to give reasonable satisfaction. 1hoy soon
found that the system did not work we'll, aud
then made mild ramonstrauce against tho most
objectionable features Of tho State system,
while presenting a plan whorebv those objections
might be In part removed. Az it is now report,
cd that the Legislature is not disposed to pro-
gx go tSay ny ssfn sfs worssy parts" g SEg0yed
droaa, tho Board of Trade think it il
about tlnlo to show, that they have
como rights in tho premises which oven Logis-
lat!trca should rcupect. We stated the main
not now repeat thcm. The case is 10 p!ain that
it is difficult to soc how the claim OF the Com
mttoo can bo rotnaotl BY the legislature If the
