uuANb DISPLAY IN DtttAs,
The Texas Press association met ON the
d,y Of our arrival. Any and oil persons
are aware Of the happy feeling that pre-
walls on meeting friends, but surely lhe
meeting Of 30 brother editors Is one
NJ the most Joyous meetings That ever tQok
place. We cannot refrain from saying that
they are the Cleyerest and most soclaDle SCI
of men that ever assembled together. .
One of the grandest displays was that OF
tins Spppetfest. We have not had tlme 10
attend the grand concerts which nave been
given by the Smngerlest and to winch the
editors nave had Tree tickets, but we are
prepared TO say, from what we have hehio,
that they were simply splendid. Yesterday
we witnessed one OF the grnndest process
sons, perhaps, that ever topk p,aoe ~
Texas. We regret that the humble pen
which tries 10 convey an idea OF this pro-
cession to the readers OF the Herald, ieeis
unable to do this occasion justice. Inc
procession was over two miles long Inc
entire streets were crowded with men wo-
men and children. ..
While all OF these we're passing, we must
say that vast number OF various pusi-
nesses which are in this lovely city was
ness and almost every business house In
Dallas was represented in some style-to
the amusement or pleasure OF the specta-
tors of almost every town in Texas. whose
mighty pen can give picture OF the grand
processionP Whose great talent can give
the energetic city of Dallas what she de-
serves on this occasion. Our power, our
ability is unable, and the readers are un-
fortunate to this extent. Since we have
been in Dallas we have been treated in the
most hospltable style, and the city of Dali
las will ever have a warm place in the
hearts of the editorial fraternity OF Texas
Morris County Herald.
AN ELEGANT AFFAIR.
The Texas Press association concluded its
labors in Dallas on Friday last. The election
of officers passed Off tremendously and sat
isfactorily. A grand banquet was rendered
the association by the local press club ana
citizens of Dallas. The affair was most
elegant one and Was highly enjoyed by the
mem bers of the press. The speeches in re-
spone to toasts proposed were excellent.
AT IL o'clock the eXcursionists 10 Monterey
boarded the cars, and from all accounts
have had a most jolly time ON their Trip
At Austin they we're entertained by Gov
ernor Ireland. At Laredo they were hos
pitably received by the citizens. Upon
their return banquet was rendered them
at San Antonio.-[Terrell Times.
A PRovERBIALi.Y HOsPITABLE PEOPLE.
The Texas Press association met at Dallas
last week. Much routine work was trans
acted, and kindly feeling between all the
members present was engendered and OLD
friendships we're renewed. The citizens OF
Dallas manifested much hospitality, enter
tanning the whole convention, with that
generous. open-heartedness for which the
people of that place are proverbial. A
magnificent banquet was rendered by the
Press club, after partaking OF which, about
eighty members boarded special train
provided by Colonel Hoxie and started for
Monterey, Mexico, stopping at Austin tpsi
sufficient length of time to pay their re.
spects to Governor Ireland, and partake of
sumptuous repast rendered them at the
mansion. Mrs. Ireland, the estimable wife
of our governor, was the presiding, genious,
who was ably seconded by her daughter,
Miss Rosa, and Mrs. Fisher. At IS O'Clock
the whole party, except the editor of the
Tribune, started on their way to Monterey.
The party was Joined at A ustin by Secreta-
nv of State Baine, who took the place Of the
writer for the balance of the trip.-[Deca-
