his native state. 1 consider, said
of late the very best class of immi-
grants imaginable, and in such number, too,
that the state is rapidly filling up. Our
Germans, Swedes and English are formers
and agriculturists, steady, sober, industri-
Gus, fast in the faith and faithful to the ira
ditions of their fathers. OF course there is

but have noticed with Joy that all denom-
nations, not excluding the Roman Catholic,
are uniting to combat it. The Catholic

Gates of temperance.

grand old commonwealth and this magnifi-
cent city have for the federal authority which
they themselves have helped to constitute,
and in this spirit I accept and thank, you
for your gracious greeting"
