AND I 917-921 0, OPPOSITE POST OFFICE. IOWA POPULISTS Xteeeat Meeting Held and Organization Rejuvenated Beadr for the Fray in Dead Earnest It will be remembered that The In Sependent published a call for meeting of Iowa populists, to be held at Al "bia, March 17. The following, quoted from the Southern Iowa Educator, will how that the "kangaroo" socialists have not captured all of those who formerly stood by the Omaha plat form: The state conference of the Iowa populists, March 17, put new vim in to the old war horses and made the young feel like there were yet some thing worth living for. Early in the morning many young fellows near by began to call at the office of the Edu cator to see about the conference, also several old-timers came early, and letters came pouring in giving those In attendance good advice and urging the boys to keep in the middle of tha road and be faithful to the end. The meeting was called to order by S. M. Harvey at 2 o'clock and the object of the meeting laid before the conference. It was moved and car ried that the chair appoint a commit tee of three to select a chairman and secretary for the conferece; this was done and that committee named J. R. Norman of the Educator for chairman and S. M. Harvey of Des Moines for secretary, which was ratified by a unanimous vote of the conference. The next' business was the reading of communications and the plan to pursue in the reorganization of the state. This brought out " quite a heated debate and finally it was agreed to that each and every populist in the state should consider himself a com mittee of one and open up a corre spondence with every . reformer he knew in the state that would like to see the people's party principles incor porated into law and send their names and postoffice addresses in to the chairman of the state central commit tee of Iowa. Thi3 motion carried by a unanimous vote, the Omaha plat form, with direct legislation added, was made the te3t of true populism without any opposing voices. It was also agreed that the chairman of the state central committee should ask all populists and sympathizers with this reform movement to send the chairman some funds at once to help perfect the organization all over our state. Those present started the good work along by leaving some cash with the chairman of the state ceniral committee. Norman was plfetfri chairman rt th state central committee of the peo ple's party and S. M. Harvey of Des Moine3 secretary of the state central' committee; the Southern Iowa Edu-: cator was chosen for the official or-: gan of the Iowa-people's party. : A more enthusiastic meeting In Iowa was never held and a more de-' termined set could not have had a conference; yet harmony prevailed. The meeting was not large, but well represented and the good Intent wa3. snown cy tne eagerness 10 nave imngs done so all could understand it and! satisfactory to all that were present, which was done right. ... , - J. It. NORMAN, Chairman. SM. HARVEY, Secretary. .
