Williston graphic. (Williston, Williams County, N.D.) 1895-1919, 1914-11-12

First: That an organization be in
corpoTated with o capital stock Of one
hundred thmsand dollars, and that the
shares issue at par value Of $500.
Second; That the institution be
non-secsar an, and be organized not
only for hlspitaI purposes, open to al
reputabAa physicians and surgeons,
but for he purpose OF q training
school, f3r nurses.
Third; That the organization be
upon the plan as nearly as possible Of
an educational and benevolent institu-
tion, and that it be controlled by a
Board Of at least fifteen Directors,
which board shall have power and au-
thority to appoint an Executive Com
mittee to operate and manage the In
stitution.
Fourth: We also deem it best and
therefore recommend that no physi-
clan or surgeon be eligible to member
ship on the Board Of Directors, and
that no person, organization or So
ciety be allowed to vote more than
twenty live proxies at stock holders
meeting, and that every stock holder
be allowed to have one vote only, ir-
respective of the amount of stock he
shall hold, or amount contributed for
membership.
Fifth: That if the law will permit,
the property be decided to the city Of
Williston, so long as it shall be used
for the purpose Of this organization,
reserving, however, the right to the
control and management of the same,
within the power of this organization.
Sixth: That one member of the
City Commission, designated by the
commission, be ex-officio, member of
the Board Of Directors of the Associa-
tion.
Seventh: We recommend that no
contract be entered into or that any
building be commenced until at least
60 per cent of the capital stock shall
be subscribed and paid in.
Eighal: We further recommend
that this body of Citizens forthwith
appoint an Executive Committee on
finance, consisting Of at least five
members, which shall have full power
and authority to appoint, and direct
the organization of subcommittee,
who together with the Executive COM
mittee, shall raise the necessary funds,
with which to build the proposed hos
pital.
Ninth: We further recommend
that upon the organization of such
society, that it negotiate with and take
over every proposed or present hos
pital property within the City of Will
liston, and that we invite the assis-
tance and cooperation of every or
ganization, society, and church within
Williams and adjoining territory and
counties, for the purpose of furthering
the success of this institution.
Tenth: We believe that every citi-
zen should consider it his duty to as
sist in this grand movement, which
upon investigation we are convinced
is feasible and one of the greatest
necessities of the North west. 1t will
not only be great benefit to the COM
mon interest of the community, but
it will aid materially in the relief of
the suffering, and care for those in
distress, and prove a factor in the re-
lief of the troubles and expense of
the tax payers, in providing a place
for the taking care of public charges,
which will come under the jurisdiction
of the various towns, cities and coun-
ties within this territory, and we are
quite confident that if the Citizens
will interest themselves to a small
degree in the promotion of this organ
ization, that it will prove a great sue
cess.
