Messrs. Jones, Merrill and Bartine
were appointed committee to draft
an address on the subject of books OF
a primary nature for general reading
Requests For Speakers.
A committee from the Working
mems association asked that the visi-
tors speak at the open air meeting in
the evening and were told their re-
quest would be complied with if ii
were possible to secure speakers.
State Organizations.
a very important committee. con-
sisting of Messrs. Merrill, Prince and
Light, were appointed to draft a plan
and suggestions for the organization
of the different states and territories,
for the aid of the state executive COM
mittees, and also to suggest means for
raising money to carry out the OBJ
jects of the union, 10. report at the
next meeting of the committee
Salt Lake Gets the Meeting.
A somewhat lengthy discussion was
brought on over the next meeting of
the committee. Mr.. Light wanted 1t TO
be in Denver. He said that Governor
Prince had. left the city with an under
be held there and this understanding
should not be violated. However, Gen
eral Jones and Mr.. Bryan. of Idaho,
said they certainly could not go to
Denver, though they could come 70
Salt Lake. Several other members said
it would be inconvenient and perhaps
impossible for them to go TO Denver.
Salt Lake was generally agreed upon
as being the best place for meeting,
Of "a CIR
represented in the organization. AS It
it exceedingly desirable that there
should be a full attendance of the
ing, Salt Lake was decided
upon and June fixed as the day. 1t
was suggested by some of the men,
bers that on the evening of that day
there could be a great mass meeting at
the tabernacle.
Headquarters at Denver.
Denver however, has been fixed upon
as the headquarters. The majority of
the committee believed that after the
next meeting there will not be great
necessity for committee meetings with
great frequency and it was decided
that three members should constitute
a quorum hereafter. 1t was believed
the facilities for transportation and
sending out news matter would be bet
ter at Denver, while it is right on the
frontier. The attack is to ibe made on
Nebraska and the other border
states and moved on east. Secretary
Light will be in charge of the head
quarters at Denver, and will report to
President Chambers all that lis being
done. Whatever meetings of the full
committee are held will probably be fin
Salt Lake.
Though the name had caused a great
deal of discussion in the full conference
and was supposed to be settled to the
of all concerned, it was
found that it did not meet all needs.
There was a necessity for distinction
between the various organizations. As
it was the evident intent to cake in all
the states of the Union that could be
brought into line the organization al
ready made was called the National
Union" while state unions
will take the name of the state and
eity and county unions the name of
that division. This will present the
pest way to avoid confusion.
The special committee reported the
following address, to he. printed with
he address of the conference:
To the Voters of the United States.
