At.the opening o f the meeting, which was presided over b y j. W. Chambers, the secretary, C. R. Duer, read the minutes oC the meeting held a yea* ago^ which were approved. Poliow ing was son. Said report w *i ta printed form and was placed rathe hands a t each member. It is too lengthy for publication. J. W. Chambers, tbe manager of the cannery, made su extended repost in which he said that with few exceptions be had had. the co-operation and support of the board during the past year. Said the lade o f capital had been tbe big handicap but that a credit-had been established and he believed it would be easier to secure $25,000 the com ing year from Portland bankers than it was to secure $10,000 the past year. Said the local banks had given credit that had helped. No fun in managing a co-operative business in the face of doubt and opposition, but was glad to say that while under the adverse cir cumstances no money had been made, none had been lost, and a market had been furnished tbe growers for their stuff. He an* swered veiy effectively,it seemed, the criticisms that had been made regarding waste o f fruit and berries, and closed by saying thqt if the association wanted some other man for manager be would step down and out and give his hearty support to the as- sociation in the tature. John U. Smith suggested that the purpose o f tbe cannery was to prom ote a market for tbe growers rather than to show a margin o f profit for the share holders. He further suggested that the candidates whose names were on the ticket as prospective directors should show themselves and be given tw o minutes each in which to outline their policies. This proposition found favor and was provided for at the af ternoon session. C. W. Bradshaw got the floor and made extended remarks in the course of which he advocated a spirit o f harmony and palling together for the success o f the undertaking. Said he was not there to boost for any man bnt out paying him for bis services. If we will stand behind him be will make it go. S. 8andermah—I stand tor co operation. J. L. Marshall—I stand for the best interests of the association. F. B. Baughman—For co operation and interest of grow - L, S. Otis—This is a new en terprise and we ought to grow up together—the growers and tbe cannery. Think we might cut dow n the force a t the can nery. Should have man n t head who is a good judge o f fruit. The man who brings in first class staff should receive more for it than is paid for poor stuff. C. H. Nichols—Have been on board the past year. Did not seek nor want the place. We all want the cannery to succeed but can’t all see alike. We are all human. Have not always agreed with the manager, bnt we should get together and pall for the suc cess o f the undertaking. Who ever takes the job will have no picnic. We want harmony and I will do the best I can if elected. H. L. Amoth—Am the largest fruit grow er in the -valley. The directors should be held respon- J. W. M oore—I am no canning man and am making no bid for tbe jo b , bnt am interested and will do my best. W. M. Wire—Am a farmer. Business should not be run for profit to the association bnt in the interest of the grower. Think we have probably had to o mnch harmony. Could have gotten along jnst as well without a board o f directors as tbe busi ness has been done by the man ager. As tor financing the con cern there a n others and I think it can be done without Mr. Chambers. If elected will be for change in management. Mr. Chambers stated that Mr. Wire had never famished any thing for the cannery and W. O. B. Ripp^l>..*..................... 166 J. W.
