There were a lot of happy intelligent
looking men at the I. o. o. F. hall on
the third floor of the building at the cor
ner of Quincy and Sixth streets this fore
noon.
They were the members of the grand
council of Commercial Travellers of
Kansas about to assemble in their
fourth annual meeting. There
were old men and young men, tall
men and short men, fat men and
lean men, all good natured and all with
the indellible stamp of business and
pros perity and truthfulness and honesty
that Introduces you to the commercial
traveller wherever you meet him.
The most conspicuous man, perhaps,
was Grand Councillor A. j. Dowd of
Chicago, who always manages to drop
his grip long enough to lend his euliv-
ening presence to occasions of the sort
Unfortunately James E. Weaver, who
was the chairman of the committee on

The Lawrence fellows were doing as
much to entertain as were the members
of the Topeka council
Mayor Fellows speech of welcome
was short, but it was warmly received.
He said:
: IF the president would allow the
commercial travellers association of the
various states to select the consuls ap
pointed to foreign countries, the COM
show wonderful development.
@The practical common business sense,
the great energy, and the suave man
ners of the members of your organiza-
ton, would be vast improvement over
the politicians who are usually appoint
ed to fill these responsible positions.
eYou have revolutionized the business
methods of this country, and with few
of your numbers abroad, we would soon
be able to say the world is ours
"You have not only improved our COM
mercial relations, but our social. moral
and intellectual associations as well.
your great store of good bumoF, your
rich anecdotes, your general information
on all public questions, you are welcome
visitors wherever you 60 You leave an
impress behind you that rebounds to
your honor and credit
1--WE are glad you have met in our
beautiful city. All that we have is yours
without the asking, and on behalf of
our people I extend to you cordial
| welcome, and hope your stay will be
pleasant and profitable"
1t was followed by an address of well
come on behalf of the Topeka council
| by C. G., Burton. Mr. Burton has not yet
recovered from broken arm and leg he
received Christmas by being thrown
from horse. He spoke of Topeka and
of the Travellers union and on behalf OF
the Topeka council welcomed the visit
ors warmly to the city.
| The response on behalf of the visitors
was by Grand Councillor futile of Con
cordia who said in part:
| "Knowing as we do that Topeka is
the city of conventions and that you are
so often called upon to entertain visitors
we are delighted that so warm a vel
come has been reserved for US.
| "Topeka is our pride. We admire hel
beauty. Her citizens are to US friends
and when we leave we want you to have
no cause for regret that you SO royalty
entertained US.
1--WE are glad to be with you"
The travelling men could not restrain
their emotions at this pretty speech anG
made several frantic efforts to encore
Mr. futile but he simply responded with
a sweeping bow.
