THE SAULPAUGH OPENING

The committee on invitation for the
Saulpaugh reception has received about
twenty acceptances from prominent
persons invited, and a half dozen re-
grets. Among the latter are included
Gov. and Mrs. Merriam and Congress
man Snyder. Among those who will
come are Attorney General Clapp, Hon.
P. III. Kelly, Mr.. ESan, all of St. Paul,
and others well known over the state.
Large parties from all of the neighbor-
NJ towns are preparing to be present.
The next few days will probably bring
a large number of acceptances. Among
the letters received by the committee is
The following from Rev. Geo. c. Pollock,
of Fergus Falls, formerly pastor of the
Presbyterian church in this city, which
is characteristic:
FERGUS FALLS Oct 22nd.
Your invitation to attend the recep
ton and banquet given by the citizens
of Mankato i'll honor of Thomas Saul
paugh, Esq, has been received We
are glad to learn that you have not for
got US. and you may rest assured that
nothing but distance prevents our &C.
ceDtance. We are still interested in
Mankato, and believe that next to
building new church nothing is better
calculated to promote lis growth and de-
velopnent than the erection AMI main
tenance of such hotel as you have op-
ened. When We remember the import
ant part which bread has PLAYED in the
history of the world, every lover of his
country should see to it, that nothing
but the best is served, and If as some
wise men tell us, "wh hat We eat makes
us what We are" the responsibility OF
he hotel for the moral character of the
travelling man, is greater than any land
lord would be willing to accept. Besides
taking still broader view, what wars
between nations, and quarrels betw cen
individuals, might have been avoided
had their chiefauthors only been fur
nished with more comfortable beds by
night, and better coffee in the morning.
In common with all my brethren in the
ministry l look forward to "the time,
when the sword shall be beaten into the
ploughsbare and the spear into the
pruning hook" when the wolf and the
lamb shall lie down together" and ]
am sure We are justified in regarding
your hotel as an omen of its approach
and in considering Mr.. Saulpaugh and
all the citizens who have subscribed OF
their money to the enterprise, as fellow
workers with us in bringing it about.
Physical food affects moral qualities and
Paul tells us that was not just which is
spiritual, but that which is natural"
and this, the divine order, ought to
teach us to regard our diet as an impor.
tant factor in our higher development,
and to unite in honorlng the man
who loveth our town and has
built for us hotel.
With kind regards to the committee
for their courtesy and hopes that the
future may justify our highest and most
sanguine expectations, l remain as ever
Your True Friend,
GEO. &. POLLOCK.

ST. PAUL, Oct. 29.-The committee APP

The report shows that considerable suf.

upon the state contingent fund for the
same, in compliance with the relief COM

General Wanamaker in his annual report
will recommend that postofiices be es-
tablished on the principal steamers that
ply between the ports of the United
States and Europe, similar to the postal
service on railway trains. This would
greatly facilitate the delivery of mail
matter in countries on both sides of the
Atlantic. When the steamers arrive
could be made up for all the principal
distributing points in the country of des-
tination. The German government has
been in correspondence with the post
master general on the subject, and he
will ask congress for an appropriation to
carry his recommendation into effect.

says in regard to the much talked of sale
of the Pillsbury mills at Minneapolis:
Information was received at the Pioneer
Press Office in Minneapolis Monday, on
what seemed undoubted authority, that
the much talked of mill deal is practi-
cally as good as effected, and that the
transfer will be made Nov. 5. The Pills
bury mills and elevator system, the prop
erty of the two water power companies,
and the w. ID. Washburn mills are in
cluded in the present deal. The informa-
ton came straight that several days age
the Office employees were informed that
the change would be made on the 9TH. A
cable message was sent to London rela
tive to the name of the new company tC
be formed, in order that arrangements
might be made for the books. The CON
sideration was put at S5,25O,O0O. 1t was
given out, too, that the Pillsburys
would retain large interest in
their property here and that
they would continue i'm general
management of the concern. A reporter
duly presented himself at the office of G.
A. PilISbury & Co. and announced the
information he had received to G. A
Pillsbury. That gentleman busted him
self in thought for moment and then
called in f. c. The two evolved the fol
lowing authoritative statement:
In reference to the rumored sale of oul
mill and elevator property, we would say
that no deal has at yet been absolutely
closed. If our property is sold it will be
to Joint stock company in which we
shall retain a very large interest, and we
shall have to agree to continue in the
management of the same. The sale, il
made at all, will be to a company to be
organized in New York or some other
Eastern state. and as far as the public
and especially the interests of Minneapo
lis. are concerned, we cannot see how il
will affect them one way or another
