Lampasas. Texas, August 23,-(spe-
Ial)-The long debate over amend
ments to the State Alliance constitu-
tion has come to an end, but the ques-
tion Of amending the constitution Is
just where 1t was, No decision was
reached.
It was decided, on the contrary. 10
refer the whole matter to the national
council, and all the papers In the case
turned over to Wesley Randcnburs,

but the story OF this constitutional
night has not yet been told. True, they
have fight every year thnt calls for
a lot of wind tanning, but tho cIr'um-
stances Of this fight arc new and may
work serious results. The constitution
OF the State Alliance plainly prohibits
any member holding stock In any cor
pOratiou not controlled by the alliance.
il also prohibits membership I'm the
order by any professional men except
country doctors, preachers aud teagh-
