Norwich [Chenango Co., NY]:  At the annual meeting of the Norwich Business Men's Association in G.A.R. Hall Friday evening of last week William H. Dunne was elected president in place of William Breese.  Since coming to Norwich from Oxford about 10 years ago to become a partner of the late E.L Smith in the grocery business, Mr. Dunne has taken high rank as one of the most substantial local business men. He is popular and progressive and his selection for this important position is most pleasing to his many personal friends as well as to his business associates.
 
The other officers chosen were:  First vice President, W.P. Chapman; Second Vice President, F.H. Burchard; Third Vice President, H.O. Hale; Secretary and Treasurer, Nelson P. Bonney; Directors, M.E. Gray, H.H. Higley, A.B.Ireland, C.S.Taylor, C.W. Lanpher, J.B.Turner, F.E. Skinner, J.K. Spaulding, G.L. Burrell and George W. Nagel.
 
J.B. Turner was made chairman of the committee on Commerce, the other members being C.W. Lanpher, H.O. Hale, W.C. Case and James K. Spaulding.  The committee on Regulations of Business Hours is composed of W.H. Dunne, A.W.Bosworth, H.L. Short, S.E. Johns and C.M. Hoffman.  The committees on collections and Credits, Public Attractions and Village improvements remain the same as last year.
 
W.C. Miller and A.B. Ireland were admitted to membership in the association and a resolution was adopted heartily endorsing the work being done by May Welles Johnston in the advancement and promotion of Chenango county villages by means of her original publication, the New York Interior Illustrated Magazine.
