shoers in every state in the Union. At
the meeting of the association last
evening, in the senate chamber of the
capitol. committee which will have
charge of the campaign was appointed
and plans for the crusade were dis
/ cuSsed.
The horseshoers now have laws in
several states which provide that a
man must pass a rigid examination be-
lore he practice horseshoeing. The
laws have proved beneficial to the
craft and the members desire to Sc
cure similar ones in other states. They
also want to secure lien laws. such az
Minnesota and few other states have,
for the protection of the horseshoers.

largely to the receiving of reports of
the committees and of the various
state delegates. The reports were all
very satisfactory Further reports will
