Judge w. l.. Maginniss was toastmaS-
ter of the occasion and in his address
of welcome said that while he was
Democrat he must quote President
Roosevelt who had said that. when we
| other we will be all right" And this
applies to we Catholics, who, when we
understand each other will get along
all right"
Judge Maginuiss was i'm his humor-
Gus vein and he stated that the Salt
Lake delegation all had passes back
home on the Western Pacific and had
to leave on an early date or the road
would be constructed bsfore they could
get there
Miss May Conroy rendered a solo and
was warmly applauded and given an
encore.
George J. Gibson of Salt Lake, terri
torial deputy of tn order, reviewed
its history and was followed by John j.
Harvey, also of Salt Lake, who deliv-
cred a eulogy on President Roosevelt,
which was absolutely without partisan
ship and merely commended him as an
example of the high citizen. Judge Ma
ginniss introduced Robert Canning, a
member of the Ogden council, who is
about to leave for Calofirnia, and called |
for cheers for him. The call got hearty
response.
Dan Sullivan of Salt Lake, formerly !
of Ogdsn. rendered solo. His efforts |
were so much appreciated that he was
called on again and again.
Progress in Nevada.
Senator p. l.. Flanagan of Nevada, |
grand night of the Reno council. gave |
an interesting address on the develop /
ments and progress in his state, most (
particularly of the new countries of /
1onopah. Bullfrog and of the building /
of the Western Pacific railroad. He
admonished the knights of the order
that in order to be good citizens of the
best government on earth they must
first be good Catholics
He was followed by w. J. CaShin, a
resident of Wyoming. Mr. Cashin gave
a review of the resources of his state
and spoke of the coal and oil resources
of Wyoming.
As he reached his conclusion Judge
said the speech had been so
warm he didn't need any Wyoming
coal. He then called on j. S Kane of
Pocatello to speak on Idaho, but the
gentleman had gone. and instead Miss
Aggie Grill was called on for a solo and
received an encore.
Rev Father Cushnahan spoke on the
church. He related that others had
praised their individual states. but his
state was bigger than all of them. 1t
had as many sheep as Wyoming and all
the others put together. and it had the
Shepherd of them all. His state was
like the Irishman-it was everywhere.
1t was the great church.
Joseph Allard of Evanston delivered
a brief address on the press. David
Hickey of Ogden had Utah assigned to
him as subject and talked principally
Of the development of the Knights of
Columbus.
At this point Dan Sullivan of Salt
Lake was again called on for song,
which he rendered graciously, and, be-
ing encOred. gave another one.
The closing address of the evening
was by Don Mcguire, who was to toast
The pope. He did so in a manner that
