The president failed to issue a call of the meeting in due time before the 6, but it was understood that the meeting would be held from the decision at Lexington. The President also failed to notify members of the postponed but carried the following in his paper, the Torchlight, which perhaps does not reach a large number of the members of the League, and those that ought to be interested in the movement: "The Civic and Political League adjourned in Lexington to meet in Louisville, August 6. Since the adjournment of the meeting we have been asked to change the date of the meeting to some date in State Fair week. Past experiences have taught us that calling the league to meet at the time of other meetings has not been very successful, however, we should be glad to hear from the men and women who are really interested in the League's work, and we shall hold in obeyance the calling of the meeting for the time being. However, the meeting will not be held on August 6, but a later date will be announced. Let us hear from the ones interested as to the best time to call the meeting." There was much expression of discouragement and disgust, and there were those who had predicted that there would be nothing to the meeting nor to anything written or said by the president unfavorable to the Republican party.
