the previous convention there had been
little TO report in the way of increased
membership in the lroquOis clubs. Not an
additional club has been gained.

regret" continued the report, sin off po-
litical years, outside of large centers of
population. il is almost impossible to or
ganiZe Iroauois clubs. In the inferior this
is particularly true. 1t is also true that 1t
is the interior that is most in need of or
gaDization."
On this subject the grand sachem re-
viewed efforts made at quarterly confer
ences TO further interests of the IrOquois'
organization, and recommended that en-
Iroquois club b3 established in every
county in the State; that a grand deputy be
appointed IN every section OF the State not rep
resented by i club; that a system OF corr
spondents having connection with the central
body be provided; that the lroqu0is should
provide for two kinds of membership, one per
manent aud supporting. another temporary in
campaign times; that clubs meet monthly; that
whenever the efficiency of a club be impaired
rolls be opened or a new club organized.
Few OF the clubs paid the per capita tax OF
10 cents year, and in this connection the
pertinent suggestion was made that the coGven-
ton determine whether this lax condition
should be permii ted TO continue. After revert
