EDITORIAL CONVENTION
The National Association in
 Session.
A VERY LARGE ATTENDANCE
Nearly Six Hundred Dslsgssss fressnt-A 1 Hearty Wslo ome So the Nor th wsst Extended by tho People of
 the City of st. Paul

ST. PAUL, Minn. July l5.-A sprinkling of rain from threatening sky greeted tho editorial excursionists who arrived iu this city on special and regular trains this morning to attend the seventh annual Con vention of the National Editorial Associa- tion, but 1t cleared oil beautifully before the hour for their afternoon drive around the city. Each newspaper office was gay with bunting and waving flags The Globe and Dispatch buildings were draped beau tifully with bunting while flags were scattered over their fronts The big thir- teen story Pioneer-Press building was bare of bunting, but from each of the 600 windows there fioated from one to half a dozen flags and new American flag waved welcome from the flagstaff, 220 odd feet in the air. Not only in gay decorations had there been preparat ons made for the thought-molders, but all had been done for their convenience, comfort and enjoy III mt that thoughtful intelligence could devise. Litts beautiful Grand Opera House was thrown open and decorated for the Con. vention; The Press Club rooms, in the same building with all their cozy comfort, were free to the visitors; the street rail way company had agreed to honor dele gates badges in lieu of fares; ana the edi- tors scarcely needed Mayor Smiths ap- nouncement to know that they had the freedom of the city. When President E. W. Stephens called the Convention to or der there were between 500 and 600 dele gates who had seated themselves in the Opera House and were admiring it, hand some appointments. Over the stage greeted them the only American flag that ever waved from the top of the famous Eifel tower in Paris. Bunting was stretched about tho walls and over the boxes, state insignia hung from the bal cony railing, and State banners scattered about the house indicated where each del- egation should cit.
 After Archbishop Ireland had opened the prayer tho committees wore announced. Gov. Merriam welcomed the Convsn ton on behalf of the State and Mayor Smith tendered the freedom of the city to the visitors. United States Senator c. K. Davis, in an eloquent address presented the formal welcome of the city, State and the entire Northwest. President E. w. Stephens responded to the addresses of welcome with glowing tribute to St Paul and the Northwest.
 Adjournment was taken until afternoon, and after dinner tue editors were tne city's sussts for drive around the city and sub urbs, which tho pleasant and c,ear weather made especially delightful.
 The annual address was delivered at 9 o'clock to night by A. H. S'egfried of New York. It has beea decided to hear from one of the Canadian editors, of whom good number were in attendance, but the lateness of tho evening session and the probable weariness from travel of the dele gates caused posiponement of that fea- ture Of the programme, and those who cared for late hours spcnt the night in tho Press Club rooms in social enjoyment.

IOWA FARMERS MOVING.

The Iowa farmers are making
arrangements to put a ticket in
the fields this year. An election
for Governor and other State Off
GERS will be held next November,
and the Farmers Independent
party will probably be the first to
nominate a ticket. It purposes
holding q State Convention in
June and to ignore all existing
parties. The call for convention
says the time has arrived when
the friends of industrial reform
should associate themselves for
independent political action with
out regard to former political
affiliations.
The Farmers Alliance and In
dustrial Union, Farmers Mutual
Benefit Association, State Grange,
knights of Labor, and all indus
trial organizations are invited to
send representatives to the Conven-
ton, not as representing organiza-
tons but as individuals.
