THE PRESIDENT SPEAKS.
Nothing He Has Ever Heard or Read
Equals What He Has Seen.


Equals What He Has Seen.
CHICAGO, Sept. 5.--At banquet at Mime
tonka, Minn., yesterday, President Arthur in
response to q toast said: Il thank you cordial
ly for your kind greeting. l am glad to tax Q
part in these festivities. The great work ac-
complshed which they commemorate may
well be celebrated, and well may the residents
of your city, which stands at the gateway of
that highway stretching far out to the western
sea, congratulate themselves, as they are
about TO enter upon course of renewed pros
perlty. Coming to you from that wonderland
OF America, have travelled a thousand miles
by the Northern Pacific railroad. Nothing
have read, nothing / have ever heard, has
equalled what have seen, which convinces
me OF the Importance of this great enterprise,
and that 1t has not been over-estmated by the
most sanguine friends. All honor then to the
zeal and energy which has given that enter
prise snch tremendous success.
President Arthur and party occupied boxes
at McVickers' Theatre last night, and wit
messed Margaret Mather's impersonation of
Julia in "The Hunchback." During the per-
formance Miss Mather presented the President
with costly floral tribute, which he received
very gracefully, bowing alternately to the
donor and to the cheering audience. A num-
Der OF acquaintances called upon him IN the
box. AT the close of the performance most OF
the audience remained to catch a glimpse OF
the Presidential party as IL passed out between
lines of people clapping their hands.
President Arthur passed the forenoon quiet
ly at his hotel, receiving a few callers. At
123c, accompanied by several members OF the
committee, he appeared on the trading floor of
the Chamber Of Commerce, where he met with
a splendid ovation. Fully 1900 persons were
on the floor and in the galleries, and the APP
pearance Of the President was signal for q
continuous cheering, lasting several minutes.
He was introduced by Vice President French
as the chief magistrate of nation enjoying
the greatest prosperity ever known in the his
tory OF the world. President Arthur then
spoke as follows: Gentlemen, / thank you
Tor the warmth of this greeting l am glad to
have an opportunity of meeting 80 many OF
the representative business men OF this mag
nihcent city. shall always recall with pleas
ure the warmth and cordiality with which l
have been welcomed and l leave you with my
best wishes for your future prosperity and
welfare" At o'clock the President held a
reception at the Union League Club, and at
O'Clock sat down to dinner at the Calumet

Every business that increases national
wealth and promotes individual comfort
and prosperity possesses an interest TO the
philanthropiC commensurate otis impor'
lance. 1t Is impracticable for census re-
ports to fairly represent every industry.
Should It be done In the simple matter Of
poultry and eggs, the figures would astonish
those who have given the subject only .
mere passing thought. am certain that
the value and importance Of the poultry
business US source OF national wealth has
not been fully.appreciated. Judging from
the census reports OF the State OF New iork
| am led to believe that the actual value OF
poultry in the United States is scarcely
realized.
There can be but little il any less than
three million farmers families in the
United States that keep poultry-hens
simply. It IL reasonable to suppose that
on an average each family keeps at least
ten hens, and that each hen lays 100 eggs
annually. This would give an aggregate
OF 250, 06O,0 900 dozen eggs, which at a net
valuation OF ten cents dozen to the pro-
Queer, would make the net proceeds to the
farmers $25,0O0,00O! Does this startle the
reader?
In New York alone, twelve years ago,
the census report set down the actual value
OF poultry at $3,OOO,0O0. The city OF Bos'
according to statistics, expended for eggs
in 1869 S2,OOO.OOO, and for poultry the
same year, 100000 making the enor-
nous sum Of 100000 expended in a
third.class city for poultry and eggs.
hova M 1onhf huk the estimate of SO1 600,
600 for eggs is low one, while that oil
poultry sold would swell the amout OF the
poultry interest to more $50, 100000. And
this refers to hens alone. The additional
amount in geese, turkeys, ducks, guinea
fowls and pigeons l will not attempt to
consider.

suggestion, saying he only wished to make
