H Chairman Armstrong ruled that .tho H' Ogden delegate was ineligible to make H a motion to reonnsidor the question,- H on account of not having voted, in the H affirmative at the session when tho H article' was adopted Joseph L -Ma- H boy of Davis county made a inotjpn to H reconsider, which was seconded by J. H J. Brummitt of the chamber of com- H merco of Ogdou.

It leaves the matter up to tho H hoard of governors as to which organ. H Nation shall bo a member of tho H league. H In the arguments picsented by Bel- H nap and Brummitt It was held that H Salt Lake with four distinct organiza- , n lions effectively working for the interests inter-ests of the btale. should not be lim-iled lim-iled to n membership of ne of the organizations AH along, however, the delegates from the outlying towns and counties have indicated that they felt that more than fair treatment had been offered by the Salt -Lake delegates dele-gates in tho organization: and remarks re-marks woro made emphasizing that fact.
