WITH THE TRAVELLERS

Hon. James j. Hogan, of La Crosse
Wis, speaker OF the house in the last
Wisconsin legislature, was in st. Paul
for few hours yesterday. Mr.. III ogan
is in the wholesale grocery business at
La Cross. and in conversation with
GLOBE man yesterday he said the beau
tiful Wisconsin city has suffered but
little from the period of depression
which Is now beginning to pass away.
While not given to talking very much,
the Badger politician eX presses pride
and satisfaction over the good re-
suits which have flowed from the
triumph Of Democracy in our sister
state. Old abuses have been eliminated
or corrected and honest methods have
been established in every department
Democratic supremacy is assured so
long as the present line of policy is pur-
sued. Mr.. Hogan left last evening for
Ashby, in Otter Tail county. where he
will be the guest of Mcfarland. the
hotel man, who will be remembered as
totei tn this city, which was burned
some years ago.
Among the Montana men at the Mer-
chants yesterday were: J. A. Dale,
Glendive: g. L. Busha, Big Timber;
Thomas McGirl, Billings; j. T. Mercer,
Livingston; w. II. Godfrey, of Great
Falls, and w. b. Jordan, of Miles City.

Yesterday two East Indians were
guests at the Merchants, where they
were mark OF general observation
Both were of medium height, rather
stout and we'll built; hair straight and
black as that of American Indians; both
wore rather heavy black mustaches;
complexion dark as that of our Indians,
but minus the reddish hue; features
clean cut and strong as those of the
white race. They were we'll and fash
ionably dressed, and, all in all. were
MISUNDERSTANDING pair. They regis
tered themselves as A. HooSseir and
friend. They were met and cOnversed
freely in excellent English, manitesting
good breeding and education.
1--WE are both exporting merchants of
Bombay" said Mr.. Heesseir. land have
come to America for the first time in
our lives. We came to see the fair and
TO become acquainted with our custom
ers in this country, whom for twenty
years we have supplied with goods from
Bombay through agents. We had dealt
SO long with these men that we natur-
ally had curiosity to see and become
acquainted with them. We have laid
out a journey through the United States
that will require nearly year longer to
complete. We are now on our way
to San Francisco, and after a few
months will take another turn
across the continent. We are de-
lighted with the United States; it is
certainly the most beautiful and Won
derful country we have ever seen. I
suppose you Americans think that the
whole world has long known of your
greatness; but if 50, you are greatly in
error. Were we to go home and pretend
to describe this country among even the
educated people of Bombay, very few
would believe US, but think that we
were trying to get off big yarns of our
journey. l cannot tell you how much
surprised we were when we arrived and
were Introduced for the first time
into sleeping car. We have
nothing of the sort in India, and
i'll my various trips to England l
never saw sleeper. In our country
we have been in the habit of regarding
America as new and half-civilized
country, so you can gain something of
an idea of the surprise that lay IN store
for us. just to think, here we get on a
sleeper at St. Paul and never get off
until we arrive i'll San Francisco-ride
1900 miles in a palace OH wheels. 1t is
wonderful to contemplate. 1t is
a grand thing for Canada and
Mexico that they adjoin count
~ containing such wonderful
people. 1t is our intention to make
freq uent Journeys to America in the
future, and the time will come before
long when East Indians will not be so
scarce here as they now are. We have
an immense trade in this country, and
lt,Si LOT
have always been most pleasant"
