AT CONCORD.
CONCORD, N. H., Aug. 15.-The run
from Manchester to Concord was quick
one and was made without stop. Prepa-
rations for the coming of the president
had been made. business houses were
generally decorated. and flags were
stretched along the driveway. The cap
itol and grounds presented fine appear
ance. AT the main entrance to the park
was a large arch decked with national
| colors surrounded at the center by the
name of the president. The government
building at the rear of the capitol was
also prettily decorated with flags and
srreamers. The president was met by
Mayor Humphreys, Adjt Gen. Ayling
| and. the Grand Army post of Concord,
Penacook and West Concord acting as es-
corts. The party was assigned places in
landaus and was driven to the capitol in
a drizzling rain. The president was es-
corted to the council chamber and was
cordially welcomed by Governor Goodell,
members of his council and state officers
and large number of visiting citizens,
among the latter being Senator Chand-
Ter, Congressman Moore aud Gen. j. II
Potter
After each had been presented the
president was taken in charge by the
governor and escorted to Doric hall,
where the New Hampshire battle flags
are kept. Comrades of the Grand Army
were introduced and were pleasantly
greeted by the president. The introduce
ton of city dIgnitaFies followed, after
which, under the escort of Governor
Goodell, the president went to the repre-
sentatives' JOINT convention. The presi-
dent was met by President Taggart of
the senate and Speaker Upton of the
house and escorted to the platform.
Governor Goodell then said:
'eGentlemen of the legislature, the
president of the United States viii be
pleased to shake the hands of the MEM
bers of the legislature. -
The officers of the legislature began
arrangements for the personal introduce
ton of members. Before they could
carry out their purpose, however, the
president arose and addressed the legis-
lature as follows:
"Before that I beg to thank you,
gentlemen of the legislature, for the
cordial greeting which you have extended
to me. believe the trainers of our con-
stitution, state and national, are careful
to recognize and separate executive and
legislative departments of government.
But I am sure the careful trainers of
these instruments did not have in mind
an occasion like this, and that may
meet you here this morning, as American
citizens charged as you are with re-
spOnsible public duty.
During this ceremony the crowd of
people had become so great in the halls
that it was necessary to lock the doors.
From the legislative chamber the presi-
dent was escorted to a stage which had
been erected in front of the capitol,
where, as he appeared, he was warmly
cheered by the thousands assembled to
see him. The governor introduced the
president.
''Mr. President, - said he, ''you have
met the legislative and the exec
utive departments of our state
government. I now introduce you
to the people of New Hamp-
shire. If they are not all here it is not
because they are not loyal to the gov
eminent or their president. They want
TO be here and there is no man, woman
or child in our broad commonwealth that
does stand by the administration of this
government under all circumstances,
whoever may be its head. Fellow citi-
zens, present to you tie president of
the United States. "a Prolonged ap-
plause and cheering.
President Harrison stood with hat in
hand and overccat on his arm looking at
the crowd moment and then said:
f'MY fellow citizens, that public man
is dull indeed who does not derive in
struction and inspiration from frequent
contact with the masses of our people.
When from those who are about
nm, and who are pressing considerations
personal to themselves he turns to the
great body Of people who have only one,
and that the highest concern of the gov
eminent, that the public affairs shall be
honestly and economically administered
and that law shall be enforced, and that
public servants shall bear themselves
well in the discharge of their duties from
that source he cannot fail to find IN
enlargement and inspiration 1 thank
you most cordially for your earnest in
terestIng greeting here to-day. l VIII
not detain you under the inausplcious
circumstances of weather which sur
round US, longer than to say again,
thank you and goodbye. -
The president was then escorted
through the capitol grounds in a car
riage. After the drive collation. was
served at the Eagle house. Among the
invited guests were United States Sena-
tors Blair and Chandler.
