the board whatever, and paid his
money to see the results Of his owr
industry The resolution threatened
to boycott the state fair. When this
portion of the resolution was read
groans were heard. A dozen tried to
get the floor at once. Mr. Hanley was
recognized by the chair, and wanted
the agricultural society to adopt the
resolution as worded by the alliance.
Mr.. %. D. Childs said the resolution
was extensively worded. and cast re-
Hection upon the society. and for them
TO pass such a proposition would be
making a vote of censure upon them
selves.
Mr.. Rahilly said he did not draft the
resolution.

or applause when he said that he for
one would not stand by and see the
society bull-dozed in this manner The
alliance had no more right to a repre-
sentation on the board of directors than
any OF the other state organizations
which the state recognized by giving
a vote in the society. There were the
bee keepers, swinebreeders, sheep feed
efS ana a half dozen more associations
who had made no such request, and
they by virtue of the law were en-
titled to recognition Just as much as
the alliance.
Mr.. Rahilly stated that they did not
ask for this representation on the
grounds that it was the alliance, but
because they were practical farmers
Mr. Elliott. of Minneapolis, retorted
with the sally that there might be
others.
RESOLUTIONS TURNED DOWN.
Chas. Kenning, of Renville, said he
hardly knew that there was such a
thing as the alliance in the state. He
was formerly a member of the local
alliance, which had long since died a
natural death with two cents in the
treasury. He knew that there was a
| president by the name Of Ignatius DON
nelly and secretary named ]. C. Han
ley. who had large supply Of offices
to distribute
the back of the room to refer the reso-
luton back to the alliance. This was
carried without dissenting vote

the exception of the election Of of
ncers. Mr.. Cooper was nominated by
j. Diamond and elected by a rising
vote. He signified his acceptance in a
few words, and ]. M. Underwood, War
rem Potter and H. F. Weis were named
| by the chair as tellers.
c. H. Smith was nominated for vice
| president by c. Hamlfn. Luke STAN
| nard proposed the name Of George H
Hazard. Both made neat speeches.
| Mr.. HaInlin said the business men of
| ST. Paul wanted Mr.. Smith elected.
| Some one raised the point of Mr. Haz-
| Yards residence in st. Paul, and he
stated personally that he lived in st.
| Paul, but was only away during the
| summer while improvements, were be-
| ing made at the Interstate park
| A. 8. Tallmadge added a word of In
dorsement Of what had been said of
Mr.. Smith. The ballot resulted as

man, had retired.
