St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1885-07-28

After we reap our grain we shall visit ST.
Paul and lay in another supply of goods.
Capt. Hackett replied to the warm
welcome of Mr.. Whitney, assuring
the citizens of Wadena that the ST. Paul
jobbers appreciated their cordial greeting
They had come but TO look in their faces
and to see the ev licences of their prosperity.
The relations between the merchants and
the wholesale men of st. Paul,
had always been pleasant and
he hoped they would prove so in the fu-
/ ture. He then called upon W. II. Murray,
whom he said was always ready to make a
speech. Mr.. Murray, coming for
ward, addressed the peop as citi-
for a city, he said, it would be before hey
saw it again. He said the st. Paul job bers
were glad to see people who bought literally
and paid promptly, and that was
what he was told the people of Wadena
did. They were delighted to
see them so prosperous and were glad TO
! become personally acquainted with them.
Three cheers forWadena were given by the
| jobbers, which was responded to in kind by
the citizens, and again the train moved on.
AT DETROIT
| Detroit, famous for its beautiful lake, and
one of the finest summer resorts in Mime

| crowd and the fine Detroit band were await
ing us. As soon as we had disembarked
carriages were found in waiting for all vino
wished and were driven about the town
and over TO the new hotel. During the
absence of those who went TO
drive the home band and the Great Western
enliyened the time with their music. Upon
their return j. L. Wood was introduced,
who said he could not welcome the jobberS
as he wished he could. The citizens of
Detroit wished that the time of
their visit had not been so close to
and lake could have been seen to better ad-
vantage. They were glad, however. to see
st. Paul wholesale men and bid them
a right cordial welcome. The hoped upon
their return they might stop and give them
another call. They would carry with them
on their journey the best wishes of the
and pleasant journey and safe
return. Capt. Hackett thanked the citi-
ZenS of Detroit for their cordial welcome.
| The jObbers were satisfied with it, bu
had little curiosity to see what Detroit
would be by daylight. Most of st. Pauls
merchants knew all about their trials
and troubles and had rejOiced at their vic

he hoped they would always continue so.
Again he thanked them for their RECEPTION.
AT AUDUBON.
The town of Audubon was ablaze with
| Chinese lanterns and fireworks as the lively
| jobbers arrived. The Lake Park band
played lively air while the visitors in

across the street bore the inscription: 1.-The
Welcome to St. Paul JobberS." No speeches

having lost their voices. Many had retired
after the unusual fatigue of the day, but

every man, woman and child by the hand
and wishing them prosperity. A quick

THE COUNTRY AND THE CROPS.
The country trayerSed to-day, from ST.

and other numbering and milling points

destined to respond graeiouSly TO the devel-

vored section. On every hand, as the

1t is subject of general regret on the part
of all that the great wheat belt between

of the trip and the short time allotted TO the
tour forbid stops over night. The schedule
is so happily arranged, however, that the
