On behalf ct the Board of Trade
and the people of Parker, Mr.. Pres
cOtt voiced the thanks of the COM
munity to Mr.. Hayden for his efforts
in our behalf. 'Without Mr.. Hay

been unable to show the progress
which We have already attained to-
ward the opening of the reservation,
and it is chiefly due to his efforts
that the bill now pending in congress
is in it's present good condition. l

i den our sincere thanks and apprecia-
tion for his able work.
Mrs. Mary Brown spoke on behalf
of the women of Parker and thanked
| Mr.. Hayden, not only for his work
in furthering legislation for the open
ing of the reservation, but for his
attitude on the suffrage question. He1
remarks were greeted with great en-
thusiasm by all of those present.
/ Superintendent o. L. Babcock was
called on by the toastmaster for a
few remarks on the subject, "Why
the Indian Will Benefit by the Open
ing of the Reservation" Mr. Bah
cock marshalled forth many benefits
which would accrue to the Indians
:. when the lands are open and under
i cultivation by white settlers. His
arguments were logical and to the
point, and he made clear that the
opening of the lands would be of in
estimable value to the wards of the
government.
At the close of the speaking pro
gram an informal reception was held
in honor of the visiting congressman,
and everybody was made personally
acquainted with Mr.. Hayden, whose
i genial manner and ready smile made
fast friends of all who had the pleas
ure of meeting him.

man Hayden is induced to run for
governor next fall he will receive
the unanimous vote of Parker pre-
cinct.
