Report of nominating committee
was read as follows
For PRESIDENT. B. Kay.

For secretary-A. F. Hofer.
For treasurer-D. ]. Fry.
For executive committee-Jos. H.

The above slate was chosen by A.
Huckestein, r. C. Bishop, Paul B.
Wallace, A. A. Lee, w. I. Staley.
G. Stolz moved that report be
adopted.
Mr.. Basey opposed adoption, and
offered to make a nomination.
Mr.. Huckestein and J. H. Albert
spoke for the report of the nominat-
ing committee. He made the point
that adopting this report only placed
the names in nomination, that they
should be elected by ballot
The report was adopted. Mr..
Basey nominated j. A. Mills for sec
retary.
The election of T. B. Kay for pres
ident was made by accamation. The
rest of the ticket was elected in SINH
lar manner, and a ballot on secretary
resulted as follows:
Hofer -. .. O.. .. 46
MlllS ...... ...... 80
Secretary Hofer was declared re-
elected, and the vote was made unan-
imous.
Mr.. McNary made a few graceful
remarks in retiring, and introduced
his successor, Hon. T. b. Kay, who
was received with great applause. He
accepted the position with a keen
sense of appreciation and paid his
predecessor a high compliment. He
reviewed the conditions of the past,
contrasted with the progressive spirit
of the present. In three years prop
erty values had doubled. Paving
streets had added double the cost to
the value Of property and TO rents.

CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS
Anti-saloon Faction Makes Big Gain
in It's Work Observation-Disclosures
Open Again Today-WiIl Circulate
Petitions Until Number is Secured.

Material gains were made by the
signers to petitions Monday, and the
progress made not only netted many
new signers but gave the work an i'm
petus that has brought with it a deter
mination to prosecute the circulation of
petitions until an ample majority of
signers are secured, even if it takes
weeks.
With some petitions still out more
than LOO names of signers were
checked from the poll books at the
headquarters in the Fry building Mon
day night. Just what the exact total
is there is no means of determining
because many of the petitions were not
brought in to be checked UP.
The headquarters were open today,
altho it is probable that after today
the headquarters will be discontinued,
and the rest of the campaign will be
conducted by personal work. That the
anti-saloon element is making inroads
into the ranks of those who have pre-
viously refused to sign is shown by
the fact that a number who had re-
fused to sign before added their names
to the remonstrance Monday.
Beginning with Monday a systematic
effort is being made to reach every
man who. it is believed. would sign,
but who has not yet been reached.

Modern Flour EXCelS
That Of Years AGO

There has been an open discussion of
late among millers, which is particu-
larly interesting in cities where flour
milling is one of the chief industries,
whether the flour as milled now is as
fine a quality as it was many years
ago, when patent -four was first milled
in Minneapolis. Most of the millers
insist that modern flour is superior to
any that was ever milled, while others,
especially the old timers. claim that
wheat -four as manufactured by the
Washburn- Crosby Co. years ago was
ficult matter.
The Washburn- Crosby Company has
decided the question emphatically, and
all thru chance, and the modern flour
comes out a winner by several shades
of whiteness. 1t is explained by those
who are familiar with the history of
the company that fourteen years ago
a scheme was thought out for packing
-four in cartons for domestic use.
The idea was thought to be so good
that large number of our-pound car
tons were ordered manufactured and
the Washburn- Crosby flour put. up in
that shape. But it was too great a
departure from custom and the carton
idea at that time was not thought 10
be practical. So the new scheme was
abandoned.
The other day one of those four
pound cartons, packed fourteen years
ago, was brought to light, and it was
at once seen that here was an oppor-
tunity for comparison with the flour
being milled at the present time A
test showed that the -four had kept
we'll during the long period of fourteen
years, and had only deteriorated slight
ly in a minor function. Compared with
the new flour, it was found to be
coarser. and not as white as the GOLD
MEDAL flour now milled by this COM
pany. The finding of the old carton
has set at rest all arguments as to the
comparative quality of the -four now
being miled in Minneapolis and that
OF decade and a half ago.

The home grown strawberries are

Fruit Company bought sixty-six cases
from one grower yesterday, and one
Albion grower made arrangements
with the Oppice company to handle his
entire crop, estimated at 500 cases. The
Oppice Fruit Company will probably
handle the most of the crop in Mar

grower alone $1,000 and will handle
his crop this year. The Oppice COM

two car loads of fruit. and is able to
care for large quantities. The crop out
look is good, tho the excessive rains
have had a diminishing effect.
