ton, which have brought about abb
normal conditions, so that it seems
that we cannot arrive at a common
understanding OF what should be
done, OF how we should proceed in
order to come back to normal pre-
war conditions, a conference of
representative men and of national
organizations met at the city of
Washington, d. C. on the goth of
March last, at the solicitation OF
the Hon FRANKLIN X. Lane, Sec
Rotary of the interior, for the pur-
pose of discussing, the means to, be
adopted for the purpose of solving
the above named problems thai the
nation is now facing. At the said
meeting, which was very largely
attended, after careful considefar
ton of the subjects that were laid
before it, a program was adopted
which was considered to be IN ef-
ficient means of bringing the peo-
pie of the country together, in a
common and concerted effort and
endeavor to rerIedy the evils under
which we are laboring. 1t was de-
termined that beginning on Satur-
day, the 18th day of the present
month of June, and ending on the
following Monday, the 14th of said
month, the people of our country,
in their respective communities,
