ry.
G.. e. Cain, j. E. Keyser, G..
II. Dent, Fl. A. Mccoy and
Capt. F P Rease were appoin-
ted to report q plan of orgsni-
cation. After retiring for a
short time these gentlemen
made the following report:
'The name Of this oorgani-
cation shall be known as the
Belington Board of Com
merce. Your committee sug-
gests that you appoint a COM
mittee on bylaws to govern
this organization, and also
that you appoint a President,
two Vice Presidents, a Secreta-
ny and a Treasurer and Board
/ of Directors, and that the
I meeting proceed at once, and
that each member Of the or
ganization pay $1,000 annual
dues, and that each member
So paying shall be entitled to
one vote in this organization.
We suggest that the board of
directors be selected from the
members of this organization,
and that a paper be circulated
at once soliciting members"
In accordance with the
above over sixty members were

A Board Of Directors was
elected consisting of ]. A.

quesney, president; J. E. Key
ser, first vice president; H. B.
Shinn, second vvice president i;
Geo. E. Cain, secretary, and P.

The meeting was the most
harmonious ever held in the
city. 1t showed that every one
present was ready to stand up
in solid front to help push Be-
ington to the front, and from
expressions heard on all sides
this organization will do more
for the city than anything that
has heretofore bbeen attempted.
