Mr. Niblackj.for the Committee on President's Address, made 

 the following report: 



To the Members of the Delegate State Board of Agriculture: 



Gentlemen — Your committee to whom was referred the President's 

 Address, beg leave to report that it is full and complete in all its parts 

 and that it should be approved and its recommendations concurred in 

 in every way by the Delegate Board. 



The President's acknowledgment of the debt of obligation tliat the 

 State Board of Agriculture owes to the Commercial Club and Merchants' 

 Association, and to tlie business people and newspapers of Indianapolis, 

 should be especially emphasized. The interests of the State Board of 

 Agriculture and of the business people of Indianapolis are identical, and 

 the measure of success that came to the last State Fair, brought about by 

 the exertions of both, show that for time to come neither should ever be 

 a prey upon the other. 



One of the mottoes of the State Board of Agriculture should be, "Close 

 relations with the business interests of the people and the newspapers of 

 Indianapolis." 



Respectfully submitted, 



MASON J. NIBLACK, 

 JOHN L. THOMPSON, 

 SID CONGER, 



Committee. 



On motion of Mr. ISTiblack, seconded by Mr. Blackstock, the 

 report of the committee was adopted.
