ed we should change officers about
noon on election day and set about to
| find Il candidate to oppose the present
| incumbent who has held the office for
several terms. and succeeded in per
suading O. w. Malmgren to run. The
| first thing on the program was tor ap-
point chairman, the prOgressives win
ming over the StandpatterS by a good
margin Next was the regular business
meeting. and then the nominations fol-
| treasurer. The progressives nominated
| q. w. Malmgren, and the Standpatters
| j. c. Stubs. during which time we
would have thought he was at a reg
| ular national convention. by the com
motion through the room. Finally the
| standpattcrs decided to withdraw their
candidate. so O. w. Malmgren was
elected by reclamation.
