report of Mr.. Peters, of the Minneapo-
lis dairy board of trade, in (which he
showed that the price Of butter in the
Minneapolis market was on an average
only one-half cent less than in New
York 1t was then decided to embody
said and similar reports in the state
report. The nominating committee,
through it's chairman, Freeman, then
recommended that all officers be NOM
mated by reclamation rather than by
committee as heretofore This having
been accepted the election of officers
was taken up, the anti Hacker forces
being victors in every case. Results
were as follows: President Mathiesen,
Mower county; first vice president,
Even Eyenson, Meeker county; second
vice president, August Samuelson,
Nicollet county; treasurer, Clement
Halverson, Brown county. Senator
Sperry, of Owatonna, then nominated
Robert Crickmore, of Steel county, for
secretary. One man had the laugh
turned on him by requesting him to
get up and tell the convention what
he knew about butter making. The
Hacker forces, finding themselves
hopelessly in the minority, did not even
present his name for reelection, and
Crickmore was elected. Secretary
Hacker, on being interviewed, fatty
denied the charges made against him
and published in yesterdays G o e.
He seemed rather surprised when
shown the article in the G b e, ana
said he had not known that any OPP
position would lie made. When asked
whether the opposition was on political
grounds, he answered no, but stated
that he thought it was due to his hav-

years ago. He claimed that his mileage
