This contention is not well founded, and caunot be sustained. | The said corporation is authorized by its charter to make rules and by-laws for the man- agement of the affairs of said association, but is not authorized to muke by-laws prescribing the mode ia which the election of its trustees shall be made.

The crisis raised by Sheriff Wilkerson calling out a posse of 1,000 men to defend the republican position is so critical and so filled with embarrassing difficulties that they decided not to meet it. At noon the governor held a conference with the populist house members and various leaders of the party. ‘The governor said that the militia could not be depended on tocarry out his orders; that the resistance of 125 men composing the force of deputy ser- geants and 100 provisional troops would be use- less before the sheriff's posse of 1,000 men. It was decided to hire hall down town for the populist house, and there the meetings of the populist house will be held, At yesterday afternoon the governor sent an application for peace to the republican house, offering to withdraw the state military and not allow the republican house or its employes to be interfered with by the popnlists, provided that all further proceedings that have been commenced by the republicans be dropped and that the populist members and employes be not disturbed by the arrest of officers or otherwise, and the sheriff discharge his deputies and does not interfere or try to interfere with the acts of | the populists and state oficers, including mili- tia, and this agreement to continue in. force until the close of the present session of the legislature, The republicans refused to accept this peace offering. ‘Th ulist house held a meeting last night in their new hall and recommended that the governor formally dissolve the state legislature.
