l and having stood a reasonable amount
 of personal abuse from Mir. Bedding ! NIT. Hotchkiss denounced the charges
 as a lie, whereon there were begun l embryo hostilities that enlivened the evenings entertainment, if only for d moment. The honorable amends were
 made at the conclusion, after Mr l Bedding realized that his accusation had been unfounded, and the affair
 was ended.
 And in this connection the Sentinel Record has this to say relative to it's
 position on the amalgamation of the organizations: When the younger or. Sanization was formed we were of
 the opinion that there should be but
 one commercial body, we believe that
 still, and we shall insist to the end
 that one commercial body, where at
 tendance can be secured such as
 greeted last night's meeting, would in
 the language of Mir. w. s. Sorrells, do
 more for Hot Springs than all the rival organizations that could be formed.
 Mir. Bedding made the issue a per
 sonal one between himself and the editorial writer of the Sentinel Record but that was and is a diversion of the issue, and most likely now is disposed
 of at least in so far as we are con. cerned, and future efforts, as past ef- forts, vii be towards one harmonious commercial organization for Hot Springs and it's upbuilding.
 New officers were elected for the Business Mems League last night. NJ. A. Eisele one of the most substantial citizens of Hot Springs through al it's history, was elected president of the organization by unanimous vote President Ge-rge A. Callahan second ed the nomination, which was made by Captain C. N. Rlx, and seldom if ever has within a public body ia this city such a tribute of worth been paid q citizen as Captain Rix paid to Mar tin A. Eisele last night when he pre- sented his name to the body.
 In accepting the unanimous cleo ton Mir Eisele made most happy speech, just a little caustic just a lit- tie critical, just a little loyal to the organization of more than 25 years standing but withaI bespeaking for his future eff rts il behalf of the best interests of the city as his past ef- forts had always been directed.
 Fer first vice president Harry A., Jones of the Majestic Hotel was nom- mated by w. w. Waters, and Ernest Iatta, secretary of the Young Mems Chamber of Commerce, seconded that nomination and moved that it be made Mir Jones was elected and when called on f a speech, briefly thanked the mem bers for the honor conferred.
 For second vice president an honor fell where it had often ia len before. Billy Borman nominated simon Cooper and there was a second by l.. F. Saw yer and MT. Cooper was again elect ed second vice president unanimous ly. He made happy speech in ac- cepting the honor in which he called attention to his fourteenth consecu- tive eiection to the office, and that he was not slipping back any in his 
 George R. Bedding nominated Wm G. Maurice for treasurer, announcing that Mr. Maurice had been the best treasurer the organizati n ever had. and after a second by MT. Borman. MT. Maurice was elected unanimously.
 The discussion Of the Callahan res olution was not lengthy.
 MT Callahan stated that the Young Mems Chamber of Commerce had been organized to maintain the honor and the integrity of the community It was a patriotic organization and had been inspired by honest and sin cere motives. He believed that the young men of the city within the or ganization represented a strength for good that should not be denied. He called attention to the meeting at the Arlington when the young men or ganized, and spoke of the enthusiasm in the movement. He urged the adop- tion of the resolution.
 MT. Simon Cooper said that he favored the resolutions "We want al, you boys in the Business Mems League" he added
 Mir Gus Strauss said that he was for the resolution. He said that but for the Young Mems Chamber of Com merce there would have been no meeting as was there present. He be- lieved that a strong organization would grow out of the consolidation of the organizations.
