CLUB ORGANIZATION.

Plan a* Outlined and Adorned by the Recent St. I.nuiH Convention. Last week a large share of our specially prepared reports of the St. Loui • conference was crowded out at the me ment of going to press, and some in portant features were omitted, much to our chagrin. The following important resolution on organization was adopt ed by the committee. We suggest to all reform papers to reproduce th s resolution in their columns and keip standing some weeks or months: “Resolved, That while we do no-t attempt to dictate to any state as to the plan of organization it shall adopt, we renew the recommendation of the national committee in favor of the organization of the Industrial Legion in every precinct in the land; and further recommend that no dues shall be exacted, only from legions that operate the rebate plan, and that in all cases where members are able, they be urged to send 10 cents per annum to headquarters; that all clubs or other orders that wish to change into legions shall send 20 cents for supplies, and that original legions shall send 50 cents, b t that no legion shall be denied a charter when it is unable to pay for it, and that these organizations shall be called People’s Party Clubs, People’s Party Ley ions or Industrial Legions, in order to suit the conditions in each state, and that rule 15 of the instructions of the Industrial Legion be drooped, and that all People’s party clubs or legions shall report to tne same headquarters, in order to avoid confusion and to perfect a systematic, organization.” The above was unanimously adopted by the national committee, and will be sent broadcs.st thro gh the country as the authorized method of organization. The committee on literature made the following report: “Whereas, there is an important demand for cheap and reliable literature with which we can reach the people, so that the people can be properly educated upon the principles of our platform; therefore, your committee would retom-mend that the chairman and the secretary of our national committee establish and publish from headquarters, at Washington, D. C., a monthly serial, and furnish the same to our committee and people at the very lowest possible price, and furnish such other literature to our people as is reliable and in line with our platformall to emanate from the bureau at Washington.”—Nonconformist.
