COUNTRY DIVIDED INTO FOUR SECTIONS Satisfactory Reports Regarding the Organization. 6 a AROUND THE SOCIAL BOARD pee The second annual banquet of the Asso- clated Press was held last night at the Grand Pacific Hotel in Chicago. The en- tertainment was tendered to the members by the eastern contingent, for whom Col. Clayton McMichael of Philadelphia acted as spokesman. - Col. McMichael presided at the banquet. The list of guests included substantially all the members who were present at the annual meeting. A time arrived between 10 and 11 o'clock when the physical wants of the company having been satisfied, Col. MeMichael announced that the entertain- ment would shed its physical character and take on its intellectual garment. The addresses were inaugurated by the colonel as follows: “Gentlemen: I am exceedingly sorry for you—that is the ,only apology I should make—but through circumstances not en- tirely beyond my control the privilege is mine tonight to express on behalf of the eastern members of the Associated Press the great satisfaction it has given us singly and together to be permitted to offer to our colleagues this pleasant tes- timonial of fellowship. We have had one and only one embarrassment. In the man- agement of the affairs of the Associated Press; in the wtchful protection of the interest of each newspaper receiving its day or its night report; in the encrgetic collection of-news and in the impartial distribution of news we have discovered no evidence nor predilection, no sign of un- due leaning to the south, or to the north, to the west or the east. “We have hesitated, therefore, although for the purpose of hospitality, and this has been our single embarrassment in using the distinctive title which might be assumed to indicate a separation from our identity with you in our common objects, and in our common.actions. We desire to emphasize tonight and always that our faith and our allegiance has never faltered; that our belief in the principles which have been the foundation stone on which the greatness of this association has been builded are as earnest today as when we first welcomed and subscribed to them; that our confidence in the fidelity and the intelligence of the administration of those principles has grown more sincere, as by their methods they are becoming more familiar to us. There is not one of us who is not ready and willing to bear testimony that the news service of the Associated Press is a better news service than was ever furnished by any other news associa- tion in the United States. (Applause.) “There is not one who is not glad to be in alliance with the distinguished journal- ists who are seated about these tables to- night. There is not one who does not re- joice that he helps to send out over the wires of the Associated Press everywhere to tens of thousands of working, of eager, of trustful and of believing people the his- tery of the whole world as each day it trans- pires, told without prejudice and without passion, and told without the impregnation of either personal, political or mercenary DI (Continued applause.) ‘There remains for me to say but one word more, and that is on behalf of the eastern members. To repeat to you that from the beginning of this contest until to- day, whenever any question has arisen, where we, as members, individually or otherwise, have been brought into contact, officially or personally, with the gentleman I am about to name, we have found him broad, liberal and true to you and true to us all, and I say this with an absolute earnestness, with a feeling of conscientious conviction, that I belieye no man has done more in the history of journalism to lift journalism into freedom from a thrall, which Was galling, than has Mr. Victor F. Lawson of Chicago. (Great and prolonged applause.) “Your applause, gentlemen, 1s generous, but to me it seems but half enough. Let us, then, give three cheers for Victor F. Lawson.” The cheers were given, and three more. Mr. Lawson made his acknowledgments in a short and happy speech. Manager Stone’s Remarks. Col. McMichael introduced General Man- ager M. E. Stone, who was received with cheers, and said, in part: “The glory of this hour is the glory of the American press. It belongs to no man. It is Inherent in the principles of the Asso- ciated Press, and in the great good sense of the American newspaper man. (Ap- plause.) “Two years ago, when I took up so much of this work as was commissioned to me, I felt that the logic of the situation compell- ed the success of the Associated Press, and that logic has carried this battle. (Ap- plause.) All it required was the presenta- tion to New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington of the col absolute truth; and the logic of tke situation was the banner which carried ua es and which compelled success. And it {is not ecnfined to members who are present, but, as the president of the New England Asso- ciation sald; ‘My interests, the interes of our people, are with the Associated Press; but we are bound by contracts that we cannot overlook, “4 letter was read in the boatd of direo- tors yesterday from the president of the Southern Association, in Which he said; “One national organization of your kind must come and we must oom in’ (Ap- jlause.) Figs was a letter from Capt. lowell of the Atlanta Constitution. Now, the logic of this situation is absolutely unanswerable. This work has gone on onquering, and {t is only on the threshold, might say, of final success. (Cheers.) it is inevitable that it is but a question of few short weeks at most and this Asso- ciated Press will be as dominant, in fact, as the best and brightest dream of any man in this room could paint it. (Cheers.)” Ex-Minister Smith’s Addre: Chairman McMichael then introduced Mr. Charles Emory Smith, ex-United States minister to Russia, editor of the Philadel- phia Press, who said in part: “I am greatly gratified, as one of the eastern members of the Associated Press, to be here tonight to second the earnest, eloquent and rersuasive words spoken by our distinguished chief. “I am glad as an eastern member to. be here to testify to the profound respect and the high admiration which we cherish for the distinguished president of this asso- ciation. And since your chairman has al- luded to me as a diplcmat, I desire to take off my hat in the presence of this greatest of all diplomats who sits by my side (turn- ing toward Col. McMichael), and who has demonstrated the highest diplomatic ge- nius in that great work. (Cheers.) “I am glad, also, to have had the priv- llege, as I have had within the past two days, to meet his associates from the west, and principally upon the board of directors, and to recognize personally these men, whose reputations were well known to me, as they are known to every journalist throughout this land and to the great pub- lic. I want to say that my heart is bub- bling over with joy tonight, with earnest congratulations ‘upon the great success which you have had today. “During the last two months I have heard @ great many rumors and reports about this Associated Press. “From all this I had supposed that com- ing here in the midst of this period of bliz- zards we hight strike a cyclone in the city of Chicago; but I find here nothing but peace and serenit; I find nothing but eulogy and harmony; and I tell you, gen- tlemen, if you feel as I feel tonight, you are conscious that in the results of this day there is a moral and a material power which will be felt from one end of this land to the other. (Applause.) “I am sure that I am not mistaken when I say that in the action of our meeting to- day, in the absense of conflict, in the pres- ence of harmony, and in the consciousness of power, there was a demonstration which will carry its lesson from one end of this country to the other among journalists of all classes, whether they are in this asso- ciation or outside of it. (Applause.) And I fancy that within the next few coming months we shall see something of that ex- perience which was illustrated by a rather bew-legged individual, who, upog being asked what was the matter, replied that he went up in a balloon and walked back. (Laughter.) There are those gentlemen who have gone up in a balloon, and if you and I are not sorely mistaken, there will ceme a day when they will be glad to walk back. (Cheers and laughter.) “For my own part I have never regretted the moment when we made our determina- tion to enter into this Associated Press and to stand or fall with it. “Gentlemen, I congratulate you upon this day’s work. It was testimony to the coun- try that this body stands in a solid pha- lanx which cannot be broken, and which meams that it is going forward to the most complete and absolute triumph. (Cheers.) If the truth were told the American Con- gress is not in session in Washington to- day, but the American Congress is in ses- sion in this hall tonight. (Cheers.) These are the leaders and the molders of the public opinion which moves congresses and purposes.” (Applause.) Col. McMichael introduced W. J. Mur- phy of the Minneapolis Tribune, who beg- ged to resign in favor of Col. St. Clair Mc- Kelway, who was then called upon. Mr. McKelway’s Speech. Mr. St. Clair McKelway, in his speech, said: “The satisfaction of the members of the Associated Presg with its service is gratifying. There is*enough complaint to prevent the organization from becoming a mutual admiration society. There is, however, enough satisfaction to vindicate the principle of associationism. he ex- perience of each newspaper in the body, ‘if the one which I represent is a criterion, Is that fair and decent treatment upon a basis of equal rights, equal burdens, equal privi- leges and equal representation is worth the having and is worth the keeping. Our friends, the eneniy, say that we are un- happy. The remark is incorrect, but that does not prevent them from circulating it. Besides, they are experts on unhappiness, I am satisfied, however, that if we are not so happy as we might’ wish, we are hap- pier than our esteemed opponents would have us. “The principle of the Associated Press is like the impartial sunlight of the se- rene heavens. It falls on and fructifies both the just and unjust. We could not keep in with our opponents because they were doing us harm. They cannot long keep apart from us, for they are harming themselves. I have no hard feelings to- ward our estranged friends; neither has the Associated Press, Success cannot afford to be splenetic, neither does it need to be envious, it is too busy to be malicious, and finds that the sweetest sequence of pros- perity is magnanimity toward the less fortunate. They will come to us, not as vassals, but as friends when the cruel war is over. Upon them and us be peace. The latch string is on the outside; let them enter and toast their tired toes at the fam- ily hearthstone.” Effect on the South. Mr. H. H. Cabaniss of the Atlanta Jour- nal made an eloquent address, which was received with great applause. He sald that he considered this one of the most fortu- nate days of southern journalism, when it is permitted to come and be one in the great work of building up this national news association, “Long ago, many years ago, we came back into the Unfon, but it took years and years of desolation, years of suffering, to bring us into cordial feelings, which I be- eve we are experiencing tonight. (Ap- plause.) “I want to say to you that the breezes which come from the gulf are not more redolent of the perfume of those flowers of the south than southern hearts are filled with loyalty to the good union.” Mr. A. S. Ochs of the Chattanooga Times and Gen. Felix Agnus of thd Baltimore American spoke briefly. Mr. Charles W. Knapp of the St. Louts Republic was called upon, and said it was only through trials such as had been ex- perienced that the association had come so quickly to the commanding power which it now wielded. Those trials had been blessings in disguise. The members might congratulate themselves upon a complete demonstration that the government of the newspapers, by the newspapers, for the fewspapers had come to stay The company adjourned at a late hour with mutual wishes for continued health and prosperity. ‘ The Business Mccting. The business meeting of the Associated Press was held in Recital Hall at the Au- ditorium in the afternoon, The attendance of members was large. In calling them to order, President Victor F.
