GRAND Forks, Sept. 16, 1891.
We arrived at this busy city to-day.
This being my first visit, I need not say
that my first impressions we're pleasing
ones. The pleasant faces of Captain
Mccormack andsMajor Hamilton were
among the first familiar ones we en-
countered. Then Commissioner Walsh
and Secretary Edgerley came into view,
and we could almost imagine ourselves
in Bismarck again.
From all the trains cam ladies wear
ing the little white ribbon of the w. G.
L. u, and exchanging sisterly greetings
with the new and old friends.
Among the ladies of the press whose
acquaintance I have had the pleasure to
make, were Mrs. T. G. Benedict, Mrs. DR..
Hill and Mrs. Campbell all of Fargo and
all bright and accomplished lady %journa-
llsts-and omongst whom the idea of
forming a state press association of la
dies found favor.
The convention met at the Presbyte-
rian church, and organized.
Tonight the mayor gives an address
of welcome and Mrs. Leavitt, the round
the-world missionary of the W. G. T. U.
will lecture.
1 will send my impressions of the city
and report Of the convention next time.
ZEzULA.
GRAND Forks, N. D., Sept. 10, 1891
This city fully sustains, on closer &C.
quaintance, the first impressions given to
the traveller who arrives by the Northern
Pacific, and to whom the agreeable sight
of forest trees, running streams and
rustic bridges form a. pleasing fore
ground to the picture of wide, clear
streets, lined by pretty houses and solid
business blocks, and bordered by long
lines Of graceful trees-altogether a
pleasing scene. Grand Forks is far
above the average of western cities in
the character of her business blocks; and
the splendid new opera house is a wonder
in a frontier town. Except in size, it is
fully equal to Albaugh's, Grand opera
house, Washington city, and in the seat
ing arrangements it is superior to that
famed and costly structure.
If Grand Forks has one excellence pre-
emin ent above another, it exists in it's
newspapers-the number and excellence
of which have formed so important a
factor in the upbuilding and develop
ment of the city.
The Northwest News is a paper
whose name is it's best description, and
which is ably edited by Mr.. w. R. Bierly,
a gentleman of accomplishments and
democratic proclivities. With the News
is domiciled the Independent-the organ
Of the State Farmers Alliance-conduct
ed by Hon. Walter Muir, and in whose
bright columns in advocacy of prohibi-
ton and other reforms we are pleased
to find brilliant traces of the pen of Mrs.
l.. L. Muir. The Normanden is a bright
paper, published in the Scandinavian
language by Mr.. H. A. Foss, and which
has a large circulation and possesses
great influence among the intelligent and
thrifty citizens of that nationality. Mr..
Foss is an earnest advocate of labor re-
form and temperance, and is also an able
writer in English.
MI. M. M. Miller, an agreeable young
gentleman, whom Bismarckers will re-
member as a sojourner in the city during
the session of the legislature last winter,
is ably editing the Plalndealer. Mr..
Miller has recently been one of the
correspondents in newspaper row in
Washington city and his facile pen
makes attractive the columns of his pa-
per.
The office of the Grand Forks Herald
is a magnificent structure, and the paper
is a fine, we'll conducted sheet-republ1-
can in politics. Mr. Geo. Winship, the
editor, is absent from the city and
MIR. Baker, who represented the paper
at Bismarck during the last session
Of the legislature, is lending his able
pen to the adornment of it's columns.
The citizens of Grand Forks are fully
up to their newspapersin large-hearted
ideas and the liberality of their views.
They have most Hospitality entertained
all the delegates in attendance upon the
convention, and contributed in every
way possible to their comfort and plea
sure. ZEZULA,
