the time Peter McGrath called the
assembly to order until the time of
adjournment.
Men, who earn their daily bread by
the sweat of their brow were present
in a goodly number besides the regular
delegates and filed the hall to over
flowing, many being compelled to
stand for want of seating capacity.
The meeting was called for ten O'Clock
in the morning, but because of the in
tense cold weather the hour for COM
mencing was changed to one O'Clock
in the afternoon.
The first business transacted was
the appointing of committee on Gre
dentials, consisting of Gen. J. II. Bak-
er, Geo. Ballard and III. Brules.
On their return after a consultation

Leaving balance of 25
The committee on Irvine reported
that during the year it had received
the sum of 50, 322.2 and had eXpend-
ed S2,3O4.71, leaving a balance Of
S17.53.
While the Irvine had been in the
warehouse, quantity of it was stolen
and for the purpose of reimbursing the
purchasing agent motion was made to
give him Griffin the sum of SIS, the
balance to be put in the general fund.
The next business was that of rails
ing an amount sufficient to pay the
expenses of the Blue Earth county
delegate to the state convention
which is to be held this month. After
considerable discussion as to the mode
of securing the requisite amount, this
resolution was passed by unanimous
vote:
| ResOlred, That the president and
| secretary make an estimate as to the
! expense and assess each local alliance
accordingly, and the amount be for
warded to the county secretary or
/ treasurer.
President McGrath at this point
announced that the next order of bus
mess was the election of officers for
the ensuing year. When McGraths
name was mentioned for president, he
arose and stated that he must refuse
to accept the honors for another year.
and gave several reasons for so doing.
After several members had refused to
accept the nomination, William Webb
was selected as an efficient officer.
The following is the entire ticket
elected:
President, VIM. Webb, Sterling.
Vice president, III. Brules
Secretary, Henry Hodapp.
Treasurer, George Ballard.
Purchasing agent, Editor Griffen.
County lecturer, VIM. Webb.
The committee on resolutions re-
turned and announced the following
resolutions, which were unanimously
adopted:
WHEREAS, In view of the fact that
the Farmers Alliance, composed, as it
is OF members Lf all political parties,
and is of itself semi-political; and in
asmuch as questions of political
character are discussed and acted upon
by its members in Alliance assembled,

seek no advantages either political or

THE part that women will take in
the Columbian Exposition will be an
important one, and more than any
thing else will call the attention Of
the world to the progress they have
made ia the last fifty years. The wo-
men will have building for their
own use upon the grounds, which will
contain an exhibit of their own work
The structure will be 200x400 feet,
and it is estimated will cost $500, OO0
The design for the building was made
by Boston lady, who won the 81 200
prize offered for the best design. 1t
will be enc Of the attractive buildings
upon the grounds, and the exhibit
therein of woman'S work a distinc-
tive feature of the Exposition. 70

the Importance of the work which lies
before them, a meeting has been ar
ranged to be held at the Peoples
church in st. Paul, next Thursday.
Jan It'll. at o'clock p. H.. at which
time Mrs. Z. B. Clarke, of that city,
one Of the Minnesota members or the
board OF Lady Managers of the Worlds
Fair, will present the matter for the
consideration of those present. Ev-
cry part of the State ought to be rep
resented. and the ladies of Mankato
should see that some one of their
mum Der is present. 1t is as important
that Minnesota be represented in the
woman's department as in any ether
department of the Exposition, and
the FREE PRESS believes that the wo-
men of the State can occupy posi-
ton there that will rank equal to
that OF any other State, but to do so
they must be active in the matter
from now on. The meeting referred
to is a timely one and should be large
lY attended.

THE Milwaukee Journal (Dem.) says
that the United States senate cannot
GUST Gov. Hill from a seat in that
body, for he has not been, and is not
yet a member of the senate. There
has been no suggestions TO GUST Mr..
Hill from position he has not yet as
sumed, but Simply to declare one of
New York's senatorial seats vacant
because the party elected to fill it has
treated the Senate with contempt by
not coming forward to occupy it. How
ever, in spite of the fact that the
Journal declares that Mr.. Hill, has
not been, nor is yet, a member Of the
Senate, he will undoubtedly draw his
salary from March 18th last, and no
protest will be uttered by Democracy.

open and no further trouble is anticipated
on this portion of the line. The trayel is
coming over this portion of the
line Work on the bridge at Clark's
Fork is progressing rapidly. but at
Bonita the Missoula river seems to
laugh at the strenuous efforts of the army
of men at this point. Yesterday a tree
lodged near the bridge. and in a few mo-
ments the work of the past week was de-
stroyed. A new channel is being cut, and
the old channel keeps choking up with logs
and trees, which are continually coming
down. This turns the force of tho current
against the road bed. and despite the ef-
forts of Assistant General Superintendent
Dickinson. with an army of men, the worl
of destruction goes on. The passengers OF
four trains will be transferred tomorrow
The road east Of Bonita is rapidly beinl
put in good shape.
