]. P. Hornish and those opposing the

The forces for the recall won on a
vote of 10 to to table the motion of
Mr.. Boyd's that a plan for permanent
organization prepared by committee
OF which he was chairman be adopted
and in which the recall had no part.
After Mr.. Boyd's report was defeated
the permanent organization to CARR
out the recall movement was made.
When the meeting was called to or
der there were about fifty people pres
ent, a smaller number than at that
previous meeting. but it was soon evi-
dent that Rev. Gamblers and his forces
had lost none of their determination
to present the recall petitions to every
citizen in the city.

Rev. Sanders Attacks II.

Rev. Sanders arose to speak after Mr.
Boyd had moved the adoption OF the
report. He said it was all right but
that the first clause against the recall
defeated the purpose for which the
meetings were called. I'VE appointed
q committee to make the temporary
organization of last meeting perma.

tee brings In an entirely different or
ganizatioR If this Is adopted the PEG
pie will make fun of that first organi-
cation. We can't afford to go off
hunting members. What we are after
is three commissioners and we are
going to get them. He said if the
committees report was adopted he
was done with the work.
]. o. Boyd came back with a hot
answer to Rev Sanders remarks in
which he defended the committee and
its report. saying it had carried ont
its instructions. J P Hornish also at
tackled the report OF the committee
and ]. O. Boyd took offense at his re-
marks that the report was not serving
the purpose of the meeting. G. F. Nc
