Pursuant to postal cards mailed out
by Emil Mann. the young man elected
two weeks ago secretary of the New
Mexico Territorial Fair association,
thirty-eight enthusiastic advocates and
fair workers assembled upstairs over
Zeiger's Cafe last night
1t was evident, by looking over the
meeting that the Retail Merchants as
sociation had finally got in line, and
was out in force, showing that they
were going to have a voice in certain
fair matters. AS the meeting was
public gathering, and is the talk of the
town today, no one who participated
in the lively debates and prosecuting
remarks can surely objeot-to-a full &C
count of the meeting.
At Sis o'clock, Alfred Grunsfeld
moved, the motion being seconded,
that the secretary call the meeting to
order. which Mr. Mann promptly did,
and suggested that temporary chair
man be named.
A. Everitt moved. seconded by B.
Spitz, that B. Ruppe act as temporary
u.
Mr.. Everitt then asked that the sec
retary read the minutes of the meeting
held short time ago. This is the
meeting presided over by o. N. Marion
as vice president and at which P. F.
McCanna. the retiring secretary. nom-
mated Emil Mann for the office.l
After the reading of the minutes,
Mr. 4
Spitz. that the entire proceedings of
that meeting be expunged from rec
ord, and that the present gathering
proceed to the election Of a new board
of directors and new officers.
At this stage in the proceedings,
Mr.. Marion, the vice president of the
fair of last year and who presided over
his appearance, and from that time
until adjournment the meeting was a
lively, stormy one, for Mr.. Marion sus-
tanned the actions of the meeting over
which he presided and at which Mr..
Mann was elected secretary, in heated
but eloquent words, while the opposi-
ton, led by Mr.. Everitt, made it equal
ly as warm.
Mr.. Eyeritt moved, seconded by Al
fred Grunsfeld. that the meeting pro-
coed to elect a new board of directors
consisting of twenty members.
