 was seconded and carried. They were as follows: 



Resolred, That this societj'^ deprecate the position of the Colum- 

 bian Exposition in opening its gates on Sunday, and note with re-

 in causing our state building to be kept open and in requiring 

 those in charge of the variovis state exhibits to be present on that 

 day. 



Resolvech That, in conformity with what we believe to be the bet- 

 ter sentiment of this state, we respectfully urge the Minnesota 

 Board of World's Fair Commissioners to keep the Minnesota State 

 Bviilding, and as far as practicable, all state exhibits closed on Sun- 

 daj'; and that, especial!}', the gentiment of this society- be regarded 

 as respects the Minnesota Horticultural Exhibit, towards the main-
