An animated discussion ensued on the ac
ton of the Plummer post at Minneapolis
censuring Gov. Hubbard for his veto
OF the $1,000 appropriation bill for
the veterans reunion at Minnetonka
and while the action of the governor was ap-
proved, it was unanimously agreed that the
action OF the Minneapolis post was by no
means an expression of the veterans OF
Minnesota or the comrades of the Grand

resolution was adopted denouncing the
Minneapolis post and expressing the senti-
ment that the Grand Army members had no
more right to ask for an appropriation than
would the lodges of Odd Fellows or any other
order.
