and Evans Make Short Talks.
AS a fitting elimination to a two
days visit of Senator Myers and Con-
gresham Evans in Glasgow, the Com
mercial Club rendered them a BAN
quet at the Model Cafeteria Wednes-
day evening.
Seventy-iv guests were in attend
ance and it proved to be most sue
cessful and pleasant evening for ev-
eryone, regardless Of. the short time
given for arranging the banquet.
Senator Myers and Congressman
Evans left Glasgow Wednesday morn
ing and attended a picnic at Midway,
and anticipated going on a trip into
Sheridan county on trip covering
two days, returning to Glasgow Fri
day evening. Plans had been made
for banquet on Friday evening, but
owing to the necessity of curtailing
the trip into Sheridan county at this
time, Senator Myers and Congress
man Evans returned to the city at
four o'clock in the afternoon. Upon
learning of their return the CONNER
cial Club Immediately took steps for
rendering them banquet in the eve
ming. The cuisine was left in the able
hands of T. A. Hauge and his chef
and he proved most wonderful cat
erer, as the viands furnished were
most delicious and appetizing, al
though Mr.. Hauge had but three
hours in which to make ready for the
feast.
At 7:15 sharp, the guests were seat
ed at the tables and at eight o'clock
the first speaker was called upon by
President j. L. Truscott of the Glas-
gov Commercial Club, who presided
as POSTMASTER. In introducing the
first speaker, Mrs. Thomas Dignan,
President of the Good Government
Club, Mr.. Truscott alluded to the right
of franchise having been bestowed up
on the women of Montana and the
speaker was given an opportunity to
discuss "Woman's Influence in Poll
tics" Mrs. Dignan handled the sub
ject in most commendable and
praiseworthy manner illustrating
points by two very clever stories.
! "The Press" and it's influence upon
the public mind was the subject as
signed to Mr.. Dan McGovern of the
Glasgow Democrat who very cleverly
handled the subject III the one minute
time allotted. Mr.. T. J. Hooking of
the Glasgow Courier was called or
, to tell "How to Run u Newspaper
He was equal to the occasion in the
one minute of time allotted him

welcome of the Glasgow Commercial
Club to the visitors and offered ther
the hospitality of the city and ex
pressed the pleasure of the Glasgow
Commercial Club in being afforded ar
opportunity to entertain them at this
time.
President Truscott then called upol
Senator Henry l.. Myers, who deliver

instructive talks which it has beel
the pleasure of the people of Glasgow
to hear in a long time. In boque
