A resolu tion, advising boycotting all pa pers not supporting the de mands was voted down, and the members advised to hear, both sides. The selection of the president, who is very extreme and proscribtive in his views is not quite so conservative as might have been expected.

Our people were all very sorry that arrangements' could not be made to hold the specia train over here so that all the members of the Press could have taken supper with us. But it was impossible to make tne arrangements. All was done that could possibly be done both by our people and the Winston people to hold the train over but the trouble seemed to be that the train was already engaged as soon as it could return from here on the programme iirst published. Our people will greatly appro ciate the fact that Mr. Henry Fries, Capt. Allen and others oiierea to hire the train to re main, bnt it could, not oe clone. The editors were anxious to stay over, but the train could not be held. While we are sor ry, it was the best that could be done under the circumstan ces. Railroad News.
