corn fields and meadows, are to make as rich,
and you, gentlemen, richer. You may be
amazed that we are happy and content on.
these western wilds, but go into our wheat
fields, SO high you can scarcely get glimpse
of the farmers roof, and you will laugh with
us, to see the bread we are growing for you.
Go into our corn and oat fields and you can
almost taste the sweet beef and pork we are
making for you. Go into our grass lands
and be convinced that Miner county can
bury st. Paul under our vast hay NOV.
tell you, gentlemen, no heart can con
ceive or tongue describe the great future of
this country.
Three years ago, when we had but just
sprouted this town away out on this western
prairie, it was great relief to see a man
come along on foot or on horseback. Now
you CONC among us with palaces of oriental
grandeur drawn by steam. When another
decade rolls round what will you see-this
wooden row will be built up with brick and
stone; in the place of these small shanties
will be homes OF elegance and comfort;
these prairies will be shaded by groves and
covered with fiocks and herds; the farmers
will have torn down their bursting barns-and
granaries and built larger; the county will
swarm with happy and prosperous people.
Gentlemen, if you keep pace with us how
will you come among us then. The train
you now have will be very commonplace
affair; it won't be up to the times; more
style will be necessary. Nothing less than
coaches inlaid with gold, and engines spark
ling with gems and diamonds will satisfy
the pride and growing ideas of our people.
But will not detain you, your time are
short.

one in interest, one in sympathy, in short
one and inseperable We must travel the
future together, like the bride and groom,
hand in hand. The prosperity of one is the
prosperity of the other. ST. Paul helps to
clothe our. bodies and furnish our houses,
while we help to fill your larders and spread
your tables.
We are proud of st. Paul, we hope you are
not ashamed of US. Sever the ties between
us, cut the interests of trade, and If death
does not ensue it would at least make us
both very sick. We trust that a kindly and
fraternal feeling will be fostered by us all;
that each will recognize its dependence on
the other. We hope and believe that as
great as your city now is, it is as but the
day OF small things as compared with the
future. We trust and believe that yours will
become mighty city, that will gather in and
distribute every article known to man. And
we promise you, gentlemen, that we will
pour into your city an ever increasing stream
of grain, of beef and pork, of butter and
cheese, and all the products of our unsur-
passed soil.
And may these mighty streams, that flow
into your city, and out into the country, carry
upon their bosoms the happy greeting and
the mutual affections of our people.
Gentlemen, again we thank you for this
visit You have come while we are small.
Come when we get bigger.
AS the girl wrote to her aunt: ''Dear Aunt
Come and see us. Come quick, before my
kitten gets to be cat" Come, gentlemen,
when we get to be cat and whether you
come singly or collectively, you will always
receive hearty welcome.
