S.AI, l.JKDl['.All Y .EBlRJJ. B
titled to the highest praise for his unre.
mittlng laborsT in the territory, and to
whatever credit there might be for the
ls,lccess the Catholic Church, has had
| hitherto as an organization in Dakota.
Bishop Cotter of Winona. was called
up as one Of the trio. He said that
when be stepped out under our won
derful sky and saw the stars so near it
seemed he could almost reach them, he
felt a sense Of room and space. He
| would like to speak with nothing but
the sky above him, and he already
en7ied Bishop stanley in his location.
I Bishop MEG Golrick Of Duluth, said he
had expected to see men with buffalo
coats, and hay seed in their hair. wear
| ing leggins and brogans, the ladies in
ear muffs. He had been condoling with
the bishop on having to become resi-
dent of the country, but he was wrong
in his impressions. The reception just
finished had been attended by ladies
and gentlemen whose presence and in
tel)igence would do credit to any Of the
larger cities, who were oft the best
classes and he found that ne had wasted
unnecessary sympathy on Bishop Shan
icy, and would give him no more re-
grets. He would inform his hearers
that Bishop Stanley was arustler from
away back and advised the people here
to make him useful. When he, the
speaker, had gone to Duluth they made
him member Of the Board of Trade,
and if .Jarnesto Wn had anv such organi-
zation, the example OF the Zenith City
could well be followed in the case of
Bishop Shanley. He intended to write
toSt. Paul friends Of the occurrences
they had met here, and advise them not
to send anv more letters Of coincidence
to the bishop Of Jamestown, as he would
not receive them after these facts be-
came known.
Rev. N. S. Bradley of the Congrega-
tional church of j Jamestown, responded
for .'Our Protestant Brethren" HIS
remarks were cordially crested and
were in perfect accord with the general
friendliness and welcome of the occa-
sion. He expressed the hope that har-
mony and sym pathy would characterize
the work of the new bishop in the field
ip which they. were all engaged, that no
differences of opinion might weaken
the joint efforts of building up morality
and religion in the state. The platform
was ample for all.
Hon. johnson Nickeus responded to
the toast '.The New See City Of North
Dakota Y imtown on the Vim" He
said that Governor Dickey and Mr..
FRYE had stolen his notes and that he
should not attempt to follow the sub
ject of the toast. He was Protestant
but honored and admired the spirit OF
Catholicism 1.-The greatest power in the
world. He enlogized the precepts and
successes Of the Church, and referred
to it's wonderful historical career. Judge
N ickeus' speech was Of some ten
minutes length, replete with happy
entences and apt observations.
E. w. Camp was detailed for toast
on behalf OF the ladies. the toast mas
ter saying that he knew Of no one bet
ter able to respond than Mr.. Camp, as
he has had the most experience. Mr..
Camp prefaced his remarks with the ex
planation thathe had previously spoken
to Mr.. Wells, asking to be released from
the toast on the very ground that the
more experience one had with the ladies,
the less he knew. Bat there was no
more fitting place to welcome to the
new diocese the bishop Of that Church
to which women owed her present ex-
alted position. He referred to the
noble work of the sisters of charities
and proposed health in Adam g ale,
which woman seemed determined
should be mans only drink.
The last toast was to have been e Mike
and john by Senator NJ. Il. McCor-
mack and Bishop John ShanleY, but the
former at that moment had to 60 and
observe man id the hall and did not
come back, to the regret Of all who had
hoped to hear some old time anecdotes
of the bOyhood acquaintances Of the
