Lampnere ana y. L. carpenter were dp-
pointed to suggest some plan OF action.
Z. +. Barrett, of the Saltwater Demo
crat. read very entertaining paper
upon ready prints, in which he consid-
cred the advantages and disadvantages
of patent insides. The gist of his paper
was that the ready print enables the
country paper, which could not
otherwise exist, to struggle along.
He thought there were about
500 papers using the ready
print in Minnesota, and that without it
at least one-half would cease to exist in
the six months. BY the aid of the
ready print practical printer with 5000
capital can start fair weekly paper.
ItwaS after o'clock when he concluded
and adjournment was taken to O'Clock
this morning.
IN THE EVENING
the editors visited the Exposition and
with their ladies were banquetted.
Two hundred plates were laid in the
large dining room and the collation.
During the discussion of the
rendered by an orchestra composed of
members of Cappa's band. 1t was 1890
O'Clock when Manager Palmer raped
for order and introduced Al. Blethen to
preside as toast master, who made hap
py response and returned thanks for the
many kind words for the Exposition
from the country press. President
Heatwole replied in behaf of the
editors and introduced Bill Nye as
man who slipped upon peal of thunder
during cyclone a few days ago.
As the humOrist arose to respond he re-
ceived an ovation. In his quiet way he
managed to keep his auditors on the
verge of Mysteries for about TWEEN
ty minutes, and before he con-
Guided had their risibilities so
thoroughly aroused that even
his attempts to be serious were taken
as jokes. He remarked in starting of
that the American newspaper had killed
off the American orator until there are
only two or three of US left, and illus
trated the point that the newspaper
men should cultivate sSelf-esteem by a
story of Nate Salisbury and Henry
WatterSon. He related how he came
West
IN AN IMMIGRANT WAGON
IN 1854 and brought his parents with
him and gave his experience in living
on the same street with member of
congress. His discovery that he was
cut out to be a newspa-
per man was made when he
was sixteen years old and as tall as he
is now, when he had shrinking nature,
and wore clothes that shrunk, too. and
was brought about by his experience
with a circus fake. He did
not think he had received
the training to qualify him to give adj
run, and if he should be given an as
signment on daily paper as reporter,
the only thing he could do would be to
make an assignment on the way he did
when he ran the Boomerang in WyO-
ming. II. P. Hall, of st. Paul, re-
sponded in a jOcOse vein to the senti-
ment, the Twin Cities" He thought
that one city was an excuse
for the existence of the other, and went
on to tell some numerous stories illus
trative of the rivalry between the
cities, and closed by saying the pros
perity of the one means the prosperity
of the other. J. Fl. Glass, of
the Carver County News, responded to
the toast. 1.-THE Country Editor" and
Maj. I. NJ NewSon made the closing
address on the part of the editors. The
members then adjourned TO the Elks'
hall, where an entertainment was pro-
vided by the Minneapolis Press club.
