IS. a. Langum, OF Preston. expressed
his admiration of the beautiful build

grounds, and congratulated the state of
Minnesota for having made such an al
tractive contribution 10 the number.
As a resident of Minnesota he was par
ticularly proud. He explained that in
the Legislature he had voted against an
Increased appropriation of public funds
for this purpose, but was now convinced
the money had been wisely and adYan-
tageOusly expended.

This whole exposition is one gigantic
Advertisement of the development of
this great country, but it has been the
continual and perpetual advertisement
OF our resources by the newspapers
which has caused the enterprise and Gu

Ii is fitting. therefore, that the news
paper fraternity, which has proven so
Important factor, should take promi-
nent part in the dedication of this beau
tifui building. whose creation was large
~ due to their united efforts. When there
were divided councils in our state as to
the policy OF large expenditure. there
was no divided sentiment among the
editors. Their united and persistent
effort was successful, and every Mime
sotan present or absent has reason to be
proud OF the accomplished fact. which

has been so gracefully presented BY our
president and so elegantly accepted on

proud of ourselves.
We are grateful TO the Duke of Yer

Mr.. HALLS FORMAL REMARKS.
There seems little for ME to add to
what has already been so well said
commemorative of this notable event.
a combination of great common
wealths vieing with each other in
friendly rivalry has produced a magic
city which challenges the admiration
and commands the wonder of the
world. The greatest nations of the
old world are here today paying tribute
to the greatest nation of the entire
earth. And in the development and
progress which has secured the admlra-

delivered that the governor had changed
his mind, and would not dedicate the
Minnesota building until June 5.

This is what pretty little Mrs. Oscar

leaning gracefully over the railing, she

1t was a great day for Minnesota. and.
the patriotic and enthusiastic residents
of that great state were out in force TO
make the most of il. Early in the morn
ing they began gathering at the Gopher

OF state papers, and the ladies were
their wives or relatives. They deter

and dedicate the state building without
