T
conditions, her tact forbidding her TO
violate the hospitality of her guests
She spoke briefly, saving that the music
they had heard during the afternoon
suggested TO her the thought that all
work for good purposes should work IN
harmony.
Miss Du Freeso of Holland said that
she had always thought tho American
people hospitablc. She said that the
fear had been expressed that when thc
delegation reached Salt Lake that they
would not be permitted to leave.
am glad, - she said, that we VIII
be able TO leave. I am. happy that we
can go through your city" Miss Dn
F'reese then spoke of the national re
lationships between America and Hol-
land, and referred to the Dutch ancestry
of Roosevelt, In conclusion, S he SAID
that her English was somewhat de-
ficient, but that she believed that she
entertained the hostesses if she had
brought her Dutch dresses and shoes and
had given Dutch folk dance.
The Marchesse Beawon Del Monte,
president Of the Italian Council OF
Women, in purest English, paid n high
tribute to the scenery and the sunset
on the Great Salt lake, whihc, she said,
beloved Italy. One Of the fondcst
dreams of her life had been realized
when she visited this land and had par
taken Of the hospitality of her people.
Programme Cut Short.
Ignoring Mrs. Elizabeth y. Grannis,
president of the NatlolNl Christian
and sole representative of the United
States National Council OF Women, who
occupied a seat almost directly across
the table from her, Mrs. Wells declared
that the hour was so late that 1t would
be impossible for all the ladies TO be
heard that it was intended should be
called upon. Mrs. Grannis S record IN
her fight against polygamy; her bat
tie which resulted In the awakening of
congress in the case of Brigham II. Rob
crts, and which finally caused his eX-
pulsIon from the house of representa-
tives; and of her continued fight
against Reed Smoot at the timo of the
contest for his seat before the com"
mittee of privileges and election, may
have had something to do with the IN"
suit which was given to her as the rep
resentatlVe of American womanhood.
At the conclusion of the banquet,
Mrs. Grannis commented briefly unon
this incident "Thc fact that | was
not called upon was not a personal af-
front. 1t was, in my mind. an affront
to the organization which / represent,
noble in American womanhood. 1t
seemed somewhat strange TO me that
while many other countries were repre-
sented in the toasts, America was over
looked, regardless of the Wanted
patriotism of the Mormon people. 1T
was another example, as the whole af-
fair has been, of the craft and stealthy
duplieity of the Mormon people.
Smith Passed Up.
Mrs. Wells, in concluding the formal
feature of the programme. said fecllnoly
that she trusted the visitors would carry
away with them a good impression of
Utah and her people.
Mrs Cummings of Boston declined
TO speak. Mrs, Ruth NJ. Fox read
brief poem of welcome.
cluded speech from Joseph r. Smith,
who was present at the banquet, and
who occupied the second table, Presi
dent Smith, because of the incident at
the railroad station in the afternoon,
and because of the sentiments expressed
by number of tho clubwomen with
