Of this state. The conyention, which
opened here this morning, is Of considr
erable Importance and prove the enter

ment in the interest Of internal devel.
opment and extension Of interstate in
forests Of the commercial firms and
corporations of this state. The con-
vention was called by W. B. Bond, of
Council Bluffs, who is secretary Of the
Council Bluffs Commercial Club. He is
strongly in favor of forming a state
league Of commercial clubs for the
purpose Of mutual protection and with
view Of securing more equitable
transportation rates on the railroads
There are about seventy-five CONNER
cial clubs in this state and most Of
them have sent delegates TO this meet
ing. Although the matter did not
come to test yet, the indications are
that an overwhelming majority of the
delegates are either instructed to vote
for forming a state league of CONNER
cial clubs or personally favor such a
plan. The meeting today was Of an
informal nature owing to the fact that
many of the delegates had not yet ar
rived. The actual work of the con-
vention will probably not begin until
next week.
