Twenty-Five years ago, or more, cor
re"tly speaking on February 5, 1871, the
Scranton board of trade was incorpor
ateq. Last night the twenty-fifth an
niVerSary of that event was celebrated
at the Hotel Jermyn in a banquet that
was conspicuous for it's business spirit
and continual remembrance of the COM
merCial pluck and enterprise that has
evolved the great Scranton of today
from the little mining town of three
decades ago.
The banquet had a dual purpose.
1t not only commemorated the boards
tWenty-ffth anniversary, but it was in
part "a celebration of the approaching
occupancy of the elegantly appointed
rooms in the new board of trade build
ing on Linden street which have been
fully described in the columns of this
paper. A public inspection of the rooms
win take place this evening between
the hours of Z and 10 o'clock.
over 200 persons sat down to a most
delightful event and after partaking
of an elaborate menu, We're privileged
to listen to a round of speeches by such
noted afterdinner men as Charles En-
Dry Smith, editor of the Philadelphia
dent of Lafayette college; James II.
Torrey, the toast,naster; Captain w.
A. May, the now fiVe-term president
of the board of trade; Rev. DR.. C. M.
Giffin, the bright and sparkling orator
and pastor of Elm Park church, and
T.. b. Sturges, and fitting representative
of the honest and fearless business ele-
ment which has been particularly in
strumental in making possible the pres
rnt Scranton.
ID. b. AthertOn, the alert secretary of
he board, occupied seat at the left of
he speakers table. He is the indiVid-
lal to whose assduous efforts and
'ush are due as much as to any one
ource the great advancement and
mooth running of the boards projects
n the last three years. He has borne
the brunt of the actual labor of the
recent achievements and last night
was forced to listen to more than one
encomium upon his faithfulness and
labor delivered by the speakers and
during the reception period that pre-
ceded the banquet proper.
THE FEAST STARTS.
1t was $50 o'clock when, after a pc
TlOu Ol SOCldDlllly IN ana about the
hotel parlors, the banqueters filed into
the dining room to an accompanying
march played by Bauer's orchestra of
ten pieces situated in the breakfast
room. Rev. DR.. Giffin invoked a bless
ing and the feast was begun. 1t was a
feast radically different from the board
of trade banquets in the past. They in
their time We're of no little moment
but that of last night would in it's ar
rangement, numbers and present day
spirit have caused the ghosts of former
feasts to become even paler Plainly
it marked an epoch in the city's busi-
ness history and was a precursor of
broader things to come.
No effort had been made, and wisely,
too, to decorate the beautiful dining
apartments over which sea of light
was shed by the scores of incandescent
lights from the ceiling and Moorish
globes. A departure was made by using
small tables. There We're forty of them,
each seating six or eight persons. At
the head of the room on the Spruce
street side was the speakers table at
which the seating arrangement was as
follows:

promise any great principle of national
right. Here is the open field for our
ripest and loftiest craftsmanship which
shall realize the broad destiny of the re-
public when our prmacy of the American
continent shall stand undsputed, when
our flag shall float on every sea, when
car commerce shall reach every port and
when the flaming torch of American lib
erty. regulated by law. shall be the en-
kindlng beacon for humanity.
The weight of what Mr.. Smith said is
in its reproduction somewhat lost when
1t is considered the way in which he
said it. Always forceful, earnest and
eloquent in the extreme, he was last
night at his best and never for second
did the interest of his two hundred
hearers lag. Repeatedly he was inter-
rupted by applause, and when he had
finished it was the common verdict
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1897-01-30

Each table was beautified with cut or
potted flowers, roses, carnations, tulips
and other varieties appearing in pro-
fusion, While about the pillars and in
the inches and along the walls were
palms and other tropical green plants.
DR.. Warfeld did not reach the city
from Easton until nearly o'clock, and
1t was fifteen or more minutes after
that hour before he appeared in the
banquet hall and was conducted to his
seat by President May.
From beginning to end the banquet
stamped itself as an event of magni-
tude, not numerically alone, but as
something reflective of the cty's con-
stantly growing repute and prestige.
Represented at the tables were Scran-
toms major wealth, its professional
sinew and the ever-striving. pushing,

if we do not want to use it against others,
neiher do we propose that it shall ever

sure of that by insisting upon unques-
toned American supremacy.

RECIPROCITY THE REFUGE.

RECIPROCITY The EEFl Gle.
Reciprocity is the sequence and supple
ment of protection. Protection developes
our internal resources; reciprocity pro-
vides for the surplus, Protection is de-
fense; reciprocity is conquest. Protection
builds up and secures the home market;
reciprocity reaches out and captures for
eign markets. Our great supreme field
is the American continent. But with
reciprocity we can also compel some
terms with the powers OF Europe,
This policy of reciprocity, with its con-
current and associated IDEAS, is the best
conception of American statesmansh!p in
this later generation, and the American
people ought to cherish with undying
honor the precious memory of the true
patriotic American leader who was its
foremost champion. 1t is in full harmony
with all the other elements of a broad
American defensive and expansive policy
our docrine is clear and direct. Just and
reasonable protection for what we our
selves produce; free admission for the
necessaries of life, which we do not pro-
duce; but fair trade is fair play, and
when we open our great market to others
they must in turn open their markets
TO us; when we make concessions, they
must respond with reciprocal concessions
That is reciprocity, the twin sister of
protection, and we inScrbe the two side
by side upon our banner as the blended
key notes of home development and COM
mercial expansion.
The time is ripe and the conditions are
favorable for the application of distinct
American home and continental policy
We have had experience which empha-
sizes the plain mandates of reason. We
have struck down the bulwarks of our
domestic defense and have suffered de-
preston and disaster: we have over
thrown the measures of commercial eX-
panson which We're inaugurated six
years ago and have seen opening ad-
vantages wither and vanish We come
now to new turning point which can he
made the beginning of n new and glor-
Gus epoch. We want a statesmanshiD
which shall realize the noble mission and
the high destiny of the republic.
HAND IN HAND.
We want the protection which first of
all concerns itself with the interests and
the welfare of our own people, We want
the reciprocity which brings our sister
nations of the American continent-nay,
more, the nations of the Orient and Occi-
dent-to our doors in the exchanges of
mutual interest. We want the arbitra-
tion which shall submit disputes to the ar
bitrament of law and justice, rather than
of the sword, but which shall not COM

GIIMPsE or THE FUTURE.

And what of the future of the city? If
should leave my imagination run riot
and say what is possible in the future you
would call it oVer-wrought enthuiasm the
dream of dreamer, the vagaries of a
theorst, and yet the imposslbilties of the
past are the facts of today, Who twenty
hive years ago, would have dared to have
said that tonight we would banquet in

site? 1t became a fact through the faith

ONE DIFFICULTY.

The one great difficulty with a college
training for business in my own expert
ence is, that men who intend to enter
upon a business life make that purpose
an excuse for neglecting college tasks.
They think Greek is good for a clergy
man, and mathematics for an engineer,
and biology for a physician, ana history
for a lawyer, but the only thing that is
reany useful for prospective business
man Is the managership of an athletic
team. A very able lawyer and trustee of
a great New England university once
told me EraVely that certain young man
was doing well in college, for though not
much of scholar and no athlete he was
a great organizer of athletics and was
going into business anyhow. 1t is the
mastery Of tasks that makes the man,
not the dodging of them. Inc one genu-
Inc reproaCh to modern college lie is that
the decentralization of elective studies
has enabled some men to elect only a life
of idleness and ease. and SOW the seeds
of dissipation and disaster
Mr.. Carnegie's famous attack on the
colleges was based on the false assump-
tion that colleges advertise to supply
brains as well as training So far as |
know, no college gives hypodermic iniec-
tons of the extract of brain. Not only
brains, but immense industry, and other
rare qualities are needed to make a great
captain of industry. Nature alone gives
such gifts, and she gives them with no
lavish hand. Not only Is this SO, but we
