Permanent Officers.
At the afternoon session of the conven-
ton yesterday a permanent organization
was effected by the election of the following
officers:
President, Hiram Price of Iowa; vice
presidents, Rev. DR.. L. B. Wilson of Wash
ington; Joshua L. Bailey of Pennsylvania;
Ex-Governor Sidney Perham of Maine; Mrs.
Ellen ]. Phinney of Ohio; secretary, James
l.. Ewin of Washington, assistant secre-
taries, George A. HawXhurst of Virginia;
Fred. w. Walsh OF Massachusetts; SER
geant-at-arms, H. B. Waddy of Washing
ton.
Mr.. Dinwiddie of Ohio made a motion
that it was the sense of the convention to
proceed tc the organization of a permanent
National Anti-Saloon League.
Much discussion was aroused by this mo-
tion, owing to a question from Mr.. Bogar-
dus OF New York, suggesting that there
were enough national organizations now
working in the cause of temperance.
1t was the general opinion, however, that
the opposition to the liquor business is not
properly organized and united. The result
was that the motion, in a conSolida ted and
amended form, was adopted, and the fol-
lowing committee to draft a constitution
appointed Rev. DR.. L. B. Wilson, Rev.
DR.. kynett, Bishop Kephart Rev. Mr.. Din
widdie, Rev. Dr. Mann, Rev. DR.. Edwards,
Mrs. Wittenmeier, Mrs. ]. Ellen Foster,
Rev. DR.. Rock, Rev. Mr.. Noon, Edwin Hig-
gins, Rev. DIR. James, Mrs. Platt, Professor
