This, it is urged, would have the ef
feet of forcing Roosevelt to remain in

A protraeted Struggle.
The fight to obtain the extraditiou

Delay In Service.
When Stuart Mcnamara, assistant

that until after March 4th. at least

factthat service will be held up until

ing and one of much value to the
members. The meeting was largely
attended by the members. Other
business taken up included the inau-
gural paper of President B. F. Wiss-
Ter who was unable to be present
owing to the death of his father and it
was read instead by one of the men,
bers of the society.
Slavery In Indiana.
Mr.. Jenkinson in his paper pointed
out that the introduction of slaves in
this state began with the first settle
ment, or followed soon afterwards.
Slavery spread and existed in almost
every community where there was a
settlement of white people. 1t be-
came so extensive that even the In
dians themselves, in their conquests,
or by barter and sale obtained slaves
and worked them.
The battle, which resulted at the
time Indiana was ready to become a
state and adopt constitution. as to
whether Indiana should be a slave or
an anti-slave state. was. referred to
by Mt. Jeakins0n. He stated that by
. small majority Indiana was voted
an anti-slave state. This vicinity
took q prominent part in the fight
although it was sparsely settled. but
nevertheless, to it is attributed the
success of the anti-slavery movement.
Had it not been for the fact that.
just before Indiana took its vote ON
the question immigration set in from
the Northern states and from the
southern anti-slavery districts, the
state would undoubtedly gone for
slavery. However the mere fact that
Indiana went on record as against
slavery in this election, did not elm
mate it. it was pointed out by Mr..
Jenkinson. 1t was not until 1850 that

Mr.. Jenkinson's paper was quite

urged that all members take an &C

curios or other material which will

advised the cooperation Of the soci-
ETY. with the Earlham students in this

In his paper mention was made of

library officials for granting the use
Of the rooms.
