AT CLUB MEET
r. "a. Nestos and ,Sveinbjorn
johnson Guests at Com
mercial Club Dinner.

The dinner given Saturday by the
Commercial Club in honor Of Hon. R.
A. Nestos, governor-elect, and Hon.
Sveinbjorn johnson, attorney general
elect Of North Dakota, was attended
by as many persons as could find
seats at the tables. In addition to
the club members n guests of honor
there were present a number OF
visitors from other parts of the state
who were in the city on business and
who took advantage Of the opportun-
ity to pay their respects to the re-
Gently elected officials.
President Williamson, of the Com
mercial Club presided at the informal
program of addresses, and in an
nouncing the purpose of the gather
ing he explained that the arrange
ments had been made hurriedly when
it was learned that Mr.. Nestos and
Mr.. johnson would be in the city at
this time. and in view of the fact that
pressure of business might make it
impossible for the members of the
city's representative business ryan
iZation to extend a similar courtesy
for some time to come. He empha-
sized the fact that the, club is non-Sec-
tartan and non-political, and that the
purpose of the gathering vas not to
revive controversies. but to express

administration in every effort which
is madc,t benefit the state adm its
people.
Both guests. when introduced, We're
greeted with enthusiasm. the company
rising and applauding heartily.
Mr.. Ncstos' Speech.
Nj. Nestos, when presented. ,ex-
pressed his appreciation of the oppor-
tunity of meeting with the members
of the club and other citizens, and APP
pealed for all the aid which he~and
his associates could be given in. con7
Quoting the affairs of the state in an
honest and efficient amer He de-
clared that aside from all other CON
s~iderations the first object sought
would be economy and efficiency in
the states affairs, and that if it wore
found on investigation that there are
on the states pay roll persons who
are unnecessary those persons will be
removed, and that if there arc others
holding state positions who arc serv.
ing others rather than the state. they
will be replaced by others who will
expect to give a days work'for a day:
pay.
He said that the state could not live
to itself alone, but must seek to co
operate with others for the common
good. Already he had found 'cvi'
dences among those outside the, state
of returning confidence and a will
ingness to cooperate in the restora
ton of the states credit and the re.
building of it's business. In the mat
ter of bonds, he felt sure that if tht
present purported sale of a larg'
block of 6 per cent bonds ats PEE

could be found for North Dakota 81
