COMMERCIAL CLUB FEAST
Two Hundred Members and Quests Attetd
the Annual Banquet.
ORATORY OF A HIGH QUAUTY IS ON TAP
Oecasloa Is Oa of Preterms! Spirit
Between Osaaba aad Coaaell
Bluffs aad tha States of
Iowa aad Nebraska.
Iowa and Nebraska, Council Bluffs and
Omaha last night grasped hand In Ihe
clasp of goodfellowahlp and thereby
strengthened the entente cordlale between
the two great states and the two cities,
the occaalon being the annual banquet of
I the Commercial club of Council Bluffs.
While the representatives from Nebraska
were of a necessity In the minority In point
of numbers, In the matter of oratory and
rnrely have the citizen of Council Bluff
been afforded the treat In this respect that
they were last night honors were equally
divided. With Hon. John N. Baldwin and
such ' speakers as E. R. Ourney of Fre
mont, Congressman Smith of this city and
W. F. Gurley of Omaha, there was little
left to be desired In the way of oratory and
In fact the entire banquet and postlude
was a continuous feast of good thing.
As a starter after the menu had been
amply discussed, the cigars lighted and the
chairs tilted back, H. W. Binder, the newly
i elected president of the club, made his
maiden speech before a publlo audience.
His flow of language surprised even his
most Intimate friends and from that hour
he achieved the reputation of being a flrst
cloas after dinner, speaker. . . .
Telle What (Tub Has Done.
He was followed by Victor E. Bender,
who has the distinction of being the first
president of the club and of being the
Chaunccy Depew of Council Bluffs when
It comes to speaking on such occasions. Mr.
Bender's subject waa "In Behalf of the
I Club," and when he finished the guests at
the banquet board realised that Council
Bluffs had indeed a commercial club com
posed of some 200 of the leading business
and professional men of the city who had
enrolled themselves under the banner of
progress for the betterment of Council
Bluffs.
Mr. Gurncy'a toplo was "Our Commercial
Missionaries," and he enlivened his talk
with several original pieces of verse an-
4-proprlate to the subject.
Congressman Walter I. Smith was ten
dered a reception which Indicated the
esteem and affection In which he Is held
by his fellow townsmen and constituents.
Introducing him Mr.. Baldwin took occasion
to prophesy Congressman Smith' advance
ment before long from the halls of congress
to a seat In the senate.
W. F. Gurley spoke on "The West" in his
usual eloquent style and was liberally ap
plauded. H. W. Byers of Harlan responded to the
toast "Our Western Neighbors," while
Charles M. Harl spoke of "The True CIvio
Spirit."
The banquet waa held. In the large ball
room of the Grand hotel,' there being over
200 members and guests present. "
