At 10 a. m. the City band of Fargo pa
raded the street and played in front of the
Bruins opera house, which was the center
toward which all steps were turned. A
crimson arch had been erected over the
walk at the entrance, and flags and other
decorations lent quite holiday appearance.
Within the hall was most taStefully deco
rated, the committee and citizens having
We'd with each other to extend right cor
dial welcome to their guests. The spacious
room soon filed with people, large num-
Der of whom were ladies, and at few min
utes past II Mr.. William Fowler, president
of the Minnesota State Dairymen's asso-
citation, ascended the platform, accompanied

The exercises of the day were opened with

followed by an address of welcome from R.
r. Briggs, who welcomed the ladies and
gentlemen of the association, on the part of
the common council, in warm and enthusi-
aStic terms, while from without came the
sound of
BOOMING CANNON
to emphasize the speakers words. Gov. l..
u uv,hI i,,f1O tO o1 in,
fitting language to the kind and cordial well
come. During the course of the governors
remarks he alluded to his presence at Man
kato two years ago last winter, at the meet
ing Of the Northwestern Dairymen's asso-
citation, when in the course of his remarks
at that time he had told those from other
states who were present to look out for
their laurelS. or Minnesota would soon dis
tance them in the quality and quantity of
their dairy products. He appealed to his
hearers if the record of Minnesota at the
late Worlds fair at New Orleans, where
she had taken the grand sweepstakes
premium for the best butter made in the
world, did not verify his words. He did
not come here to instruct but to learn, and
would only say that he was sincerely in
sympathy with the interests which had
brought the people together, and proposed
to lend all the aid in his power to advance
them. '::We hold the banner now, but those
from whom we have taken it would struggle
to recapture it. We must be active, ener-
getic and earnest, if we would retain it.
Again, he would say, his heart was with
the prosecution Of this industry, in which
Northern Minnesota was destined to play
such all important part"
Col. J. G. LOmbgrd of Chicago was then
introduced, and sang in his most inimitable
manner the national hymn, America" the
audience at his request, joining in the
chorus.

II. Reed of Glencoe.
Col. r. P. McGlincy of Elgin was intro
duced as the first speaker, who, the presi-
dent said, was always loaded. He had
read, he said, recently in some newspaper the
statement that dairying could never be car
ried on proftably out of a certain section
of country, in which Northern Minnesota
was not mentioned. He would say that
the so-called dairy belt only existed in
imagination and had no place in point of
fact He would say that wherever grass
would grow and good pure water could be
found, dairying could be carried on.> He
had passed through some beautiful country
yesterday Grass was abundant and luxu-
rious, water without measure, and all that
was necessary to make it rich dairying
region was the right kind of men and
women. Moorhead had achieved some
thing of a reputation in the dairy line
already He had himself been present, on
certain occasion, when Moorhead man
