At tho meeting of tho stito bo.trd
of agriculture held nt th3 Bvfito farm
at Lincoln IubI week VV. 11. Mellor,
for eleven years secretary of the etato
board of agriculture, was dislaced
thru the election of E. R. Danlelson
of Polk coun'y. Tho defeat of Mr.
Mellor eamo as a surprise to Mr. Mel
lor and his friends, altho Mr. Mellor
learned of the contemplated action
after the fair managers banqurt tho
previous evening.
Tho charge mado against Mr. Mel
lor by some of those who wcro op
posing him was that he is dlctartor
lal and that other state fair officers
have found it difficult to work in
harmony with htm. These charges
were Indignantly denied by Mr. Mellor.
On his way home from tho fair
managers dinner at the commercial
club in Lincoln Mr. Mellor was in
formed that a meeting of members
of the fair board had been held and
that It had been agreed to make a
change in the office of secretary. It
was suggested, It Is understood, that
Mr. Mellor step down from the office
of secretary gracefully and accept a
place on the board of managers. Mr.
Mellor would not agree to tho pro
gram outlined.
Mr. Mellor, while at tho meeting
of fair managers the night before
had marvelled that but few mcm-j
bers of the state board of agriculture
were present. He learned on the
way homo that they had been meet
ing at the Llndell.
Mr. Mellor has served as secretary
of the stato board for eleven years.
His salary now is $3,000 a year and
Mr. Danlelson will receive that sum
for his services.
The vote by which Mellor was de
feated was 42 to 30. Peter Young
ers nominated Mr. Mellor and E. R.
Purcell of Broken Bow nominated
Mr. Danlelson.
There nro twenty-nine members of
the state board. The largo vote, 72
votees b"lng cast, Is accounted for by
the fact that representatives of coun
ty fair associations ore allowed a
voice In tho proceedings of the state
bonrd of agriculture.

ble, "and I tell you it looked pretty
tough for one of them. The bigger

and I Jumped In between them."
The family had listened with rapt
attention, and, as the head paused In
his narrative, tho young heir, whose
respect for his father's bravery was
immeasurable, proudly remarked:
"He couldn't knock any brains out
of you, could he father?"
The head of tho family gazed long
and earnestly at the heir r-s If to de-

but as the youth continued with great
Innocence to munch his fourth tart,
he gasped and resumed his supper.
