The Hamline Citizens union is one
of the most progressive and active Or
CARNATIONS of the Midway district.
Composed of the property owners, it is
banded together for the purpose of OBJ
tanning advantages and improvements
for this suburb which others gain
through being controlled by wealthy
corporations, and it is mainly due to its
efforts that Hamline is taking Oh an
urban air and keeping pace with her
rapidly developing sister parks. To in
crease its influence and secure social
distinction, the union entertained its
friends at the annual banquet in Ma
sonic nail last evening. 1t was a most
delightful event and highly enjoyed by
all.
A large number of people from all
the parks were present 10 enjoy its
hospitality, the reception taking place
in the parlorS of the hall. A musical
programme was given, including bases
solos by w. 3. Parsons and L. p.
Mcguire, selections 10y the AmphictyOn
quartette, and by string quartette. A
recitation by l.. j. Partridge. THE
Death OF Benedict Arnold" was very
we'll rendered. the voice being well mod
adlated and expressive.
In the dining hall large number of
tables were spread, and all elaborate
menu was served to the 300 guests. A
number of tOaStS were given, with G..
IL. Hazard as toastmaSter, the first by

were toasted and partiallyroasted by e.
A. Paradis, OF the Midway News.
Hon. Z. h. Benedict was the last
speaker. He spoke briefly upon one or
two things which seemed to him to be
among the shortcomings of the Midway
district. First of all.'' said Mr.. Bene-
dict, 1--WE see too little of each other,
depending too much for social enjoy
ment on our friends in the two cities.
This is wrong. Wrought to cultivate
a9more familiar acquaintance with
those among whom. our lot is cast. What
are we going to do about this? Had we
not better lhake our vicinity more
homogeneous, not only for its financial
advantage, but also for Its intellectual
gfowth, which would he stimulated by
a more general intermingling of its tai
ents. The principal question is, 'What
can we do for the vicinity in which we
ilve?' We can all pull together; we
can all be more liberalin our contrbu-
tt0nS towards public improvements
We ought to secure the location in this
vicinity of the most magnificent park
which either city can boast; al! the
natural advantages are ours, the energy
and public spirit alone are wanting.
Having secured this park, we ought to
pull unitedly forthe location of the new
capitol, which ought to be in the Mid
way Heights district. I'VE ought to be
better men and women, so as to attract
strangers to cur midst but L am quite
certain good many of us imagine we
are too good already. and that is the
reason why people who have been
brought up in the world and not in
heaven do not feel quite at home among
us. We ought to persuade some one to
come out here and purchase orr vacant
try and do it, In speaking of the
street railway service, Mr. Benedict
advised good, hard fighting for their
rights, and not to resort to prayers to
the railway magnateS.
