State Agent.

At meeting of our Executive Com
mittee, held April 8, 1876, all the men,
bcrs being present, full investigation
and free discussion being had from
each, it appears that there was an
understanding among majority of
the members of the committee, at En-
poria, December. 1875, to appoint Bro.
w. p. Popenoe as State Agent. Yet
there was never a vote taken confirm
ing his appointment. 1t being after
wards thought best to appoint Bro. A.
T. Stewart, as he was then acting as
our special agent at Kansas City, and
to put the whole business under his
charge, the committee appointed him
thereto, and statements having been
made and gone TO the public through
the press, that the appointment OF
Bro. A. 7. Stewart as State Agent OF
the Kansas State Grange, was OBJ
tanned through "trickery and fraud, y
therefore, in justice to ourselves, we
would respectfully represent that such
statements have no foundation in fact.
