The committee acted without ref.
erence to the political preferences OF
the men invited, and in most cases
without knowledge of that preference,
but with the desire to have on the re-
Iception committee representative
men from the northern part Of the
state, in order that fitting recognition
may be given to the visit here Of a
man who was for seven years presi-
dent Of the United States. who Is
again a candidate for that high ONCE,
and who is everywhere recognized al
one Of the worlds most eminent men.
Political preferences were cast to
the four winds when II came to Sc
tee and an effort was made to have
representative men on the committee
regardless of their politics.
