that the call Tor the conference was

came from every county nearly, and arn

are present, and TO use an expression OF
one oi tho conferees, they were not
wanted. In fact they were not invited,

The consensus Of opinion Of men OF all
parties is that the meeting is an import
ant one In Tho political history OF West
