The Burlington Hawk-Eye seems to
think that the directors of the G. A.
should have something to say about
electing a president for next year
and we will have to admit that we
share the same opinion. Its article
on the subject follows:
Undoubtedly the Muscatine and
Waterloo papers mean to come to
Burlington September %, and fire
President Justice out of the Central
Association. All of them state that
Justice has seen his last year as pres
ident OF the league. Unfortunately,
however, the laws of the league do
not permit newspapers to cast votes
at It's meetings. When these papers
get to Burlington and find this out,
no doubt their columns will be filed
with walls against the league man
agement for adopting such unheard
of laws, and more than likely Presi-
dent Justice will be blamed for It.
No doubt he will be charged with
connivance with Tom Hayden or
some one else in this matter to defeat
the will Of the two sets OF newspapers.
