time in which to compile the full re-
ports.
The repor of National Secretary
Treasurer, NJ. A. Boyd, showed the af-
fairs of the society in excellent condi-
ton. The auditing committees re-
port showed all accounts up to the
minute, correct as rendered in the
various financial reports.
The report of National Organizer,
H. G. Morris, showed that he has
been consistently on the job, and that
during the last six months he has
raised funds for the various incor-
porations amounting to $4,000 to
be spent in developing new properties,
and buying and selling. Over 100
new members have been added during
his special stock campaign in New
Mexico. He has been instrumental in
securing for the Union County Equity
5 cars Of implements and machinery,
also a car of apples and one Of potatoes
one car of salt and one Of wire. In
addition he secured two cars OF APP
pies for the Minnesota district and one
for the Oklahoma. Mr.. Norris was
unanimously reelected National Or
ganizer for the ensuing year.
\
By unanimous consent of the conven-
ton it was decided to adopt the Roch-
dale system Of cooperation, so sue
cessful in Great Britain, as the future
basis of operation, and to that end
National headquarters will be re- in
corporated and shares of stock will be
sold to the members. The plan is to
collect annual dues from the members
one dollar of which will be applied or
the par value of share Of stock which
will be five dollars. In five years the
share of stock will be paid for, after
which time the holder will draw divi-
dends upon it.
The following report of the conven'
ton taken from the Kansas City Post
summarizes the doings of the conven.
tion and is given verbatim.

Naturally this made the Germans hate

OF Turks which surrounds the latter.
These circumstances are regarded
here as giving plenty of ground for

ample reason for the deepest despon-
