At the signal given by firing the big gun |
at a. m. yesterday tents were at once
struck, and in few minutes the First regi- |
ment was ready to move away from the |
camp ground it had occupied for a week. |
But it was not till $50 or Whereabouts that |
the regiment was formed in line for march |
ing to the depot. On arrival in Minneap-
oils the regiment took up the line
of march given in the GLOBE yesterday
morning and proceeded to the Milwaukee
depot. The streets through which the
marchfwas had was so INSTRUCTED by drays,
hacks and wagons, that most of the march
was made by tours instead of by platoon
or company fronts. On arriving IN st.
Paul at II 80 the regiment marched in
columns by platoens to the capitol and,
having been formed in parade line, pre-.
scented arms to Governor Hubbard who, at
the request of the colonel, addressed the
"Oficers and Men of the First Regiment:
81 congratulate you upon the success of
your second annual encampment. Notwith-
standing you have had to contend with the
adverse disposition of the elements to
some extent, you have had a successful
and profitable experience. You have
learned much regarding the details of a
soldiers duties that could not have been
acquired in any other way. You have also
demonstrated to the people of the state
that we have we'll organized and efficient
| national guard. I believe it is the wish
of the people of this state to make such
provision for the maintenance of your or
| ganization as liberal disposition would
suggest. I think that fact is made appar-
ent by the increased appropriations made
in that behalf by the legislature of last
winter. IL is doubtlnss a source of much
qualification to you, as it certainly is to
me, that the state has thus recognized and
in measure rewarded your efforts to give
her more effective militia organization.
1 sincerely hope that the people of the
state may feel that the increased cost of
our militia organization is proving prof
liable investment. shall be disappointed
If such is not the case, as I feel that you
are doing your part, gentlemen, in the
demonstration of that fact. You have
done even more in that direction during
the time you have been a regiment than
, could reasonably have been expected, and
you are ertitled to the thanks of the state
for the time and the effort you have given
to this service. I trust that you will not
allow your interest to flag, but that you
will maintain purpose which no doubt
animates you now, and which know IN
spires your efficient commander, Col.
Bend, 10 make your regiment in all re-
speots equal to the best.
The response to the governors remarks
was three hearty cheers, but Lit. Col. John
son was called on to speak as if to make
further response. He thanked the COVER
nor on behalf of the regiment, and then
addressing the battalion, spoke of their
satisfaction with Col. Bends COM
mand of them in camp
where they were brought together
for the first time, and of the cordial rela-
tions established between the colonel and
other officers of the regiment. He then,
in token of their pleasant associations,
presented the colonel new sword, hand
some dress sword mounted in gold and sill
YER. Colonel Bend was taken by surprise,
but managed to express his qualification
at the kind expression of
good will and his pleasure that
the token had taken the form of a new
sword, since the old one had suffered some
what by much use.
l After cheers for Col. Bend, to which the
companies one after another added their
company ''cheer and tiger" the battalion
: line was broken by the Minneapolis, Litch-
} field, Fergus Falls and Red Wing compa-
MES being formed under command of Lit.
} Col. johnson, to march to the union de-
lpot. The st. Paul companies were then
marched to their armory and disbanded.
| The first meeting and camp of the regi-
ment has been wholly successful, and the
boys will now anticipate with greater in
terest their next summer encampment,
when it is believed the regiment will be
one of the largest and best drilled in the
United States.
***'Mean people take advantage of their
neighbours difficulties to annoy them" Mean
diseases, such as piles, rheumatism, constipa-
ton, dyspepsia, malaria, lame backs, etc., take
advantage of peoples exposures and attack
them. 1t is then that Kidney-Wort appears on
the field and by its timely agency puts to rout
this flock of evil ailments 1t is friend in
need is friend indeed.
