the Washington County Journal, pre-
sented the letter Of regret from tire
editor of the Prison Mirror, and an en-
crossed resolution from the prison
board inviting the association to pay
visit to the prison while in session. The
matter Of the visit to Saltwater was de-
ferred to the individual wishes of the
members, and the president introduced
Conde Hamlin, of the Pioneer Press,
who read paper on "The Relation OF
the Newspaper to Material Prosperity"
(Mr. Hamlin's address appears on the
sixth page.)
OLD PEASE'S WIG.
In line with Mr.. Hamlin's paper, G.
G. Whitney suggested that o. Z. Gregg.
of the farmers institute, be invited to
address the association. Owing to the
crowded programme for the day. 1t was
decided to defer Mr.. Gregg's address to
later date.
At this point G.. s. Pease. of the
Anoka Union, slightly disfgured and
almost completely disguised in bronze
wig, was called for and escorted to the
platform, where he was hilariouslv
greeted and numerically guyed by his
fellow workers, who, however, accom-
panied every jest with unmistakable
evidences of the universal esteem in
which the old man, is held.

rangements of the room were peculiarly
fitted for the size and character of the
assemblage.
Previous TO the commencement of
business those present were shown a
unique piece of work in the shape of a
card of regrets from the editor of the
Prison Mirror, who, from his stronghold
behind the towers and walls of the in
stitution at Saltwater. sends his greet
ing to the association, accompanied by
satisfactory reasons for his absence.
The'card is about 1Sx24 inches in size,
the message being inscribed in most
beautiful penmanship. the border, head
and foot lines being a scroll in pen
etching that is the work of real artist.
The message itself was couched in the
following language:
To the honorable, the bulwarks of en-
lightenment,th the galaxy of editors of the
Minnesota State Editorial association in
Minneapolis assembled:
Be it known that we, the editor of the
Prison Mirror, in duty bound, do feel

early enough. and could warble sweet
lullabies and break forth in song, and
perhaps get ten days for doing so. He
alluded to the splendid hospitality ac-
corded the association by Minneapolis,
saying that the present was the most
brilliant affair ever given.
Mayor Eustis. in happy vein, then
introduced Gov. Nelson. who spoke on
"Our Commonwealth" The governor
spoke of the power Of the state and
said that while he represented the state.
President johnson represented much
nobler estate i'll the commonwealth of
the press.
Upon his arrival in Chicago in July.
'49. he had worked there on the Free
Democrat, published by John Went
worth. AS the office boy he was the
connecting link between the paper and
the public. and he regretted that he
had ever left his first love.
The great powers. he said. in the
United States were the school house
and the press He had felt the power
OF the latter, especially when he ran for
Office, but had taken his medicine on
the theory of whom the Lord loveth he
chasteneth." This was so, ne said, with
regard to his friend Hall. Brother Hall,
of the GLoRE, who had chastised him

the two men was vividly depicted, and i'll
conclusion he said the country editors
are the salt of the earth and that they
hoped some day to be occupying as good
salt cellars as the visiting editors.
The next speaker was HIP. Hall, who
responded TO the toast, 1.-The Capital of
Minnesota and the st. Paul Press
Club"
Mr.. Hall was introduced In happy
manner by the mayor. Mr.. Hail allud-
ed 10 the hospitality of the two cities.
He then progressed in early stages to
his theme, saying that he welcomed
them in behalf of the Capital city as
much as If the association was in St..
Paul. He read the following telegram
he had just received:
10 Ii. p. Hall, West Hotel:
ST. PAUL, Feb. 15.-EXtend courteSies
of the Commercial CluD of St. Paul TO
the convention.
W. j. FooTNER, President.
Mr.. Hall paid strong tribute to Col.
William S. King, one OF the early news
paper men of the state and city, stating
he had done more than any one man to
make Minneapolis, his work being at a
crystalizing era when the question was
whether there should be city here or
not. He read the following extract
lrolH loILSf lIOlil SOl. hlug.
"tlow | wish | Mas going to he at
home to drop in at your convention.
Some of the dear old boys of the by
gone days will be there, and l would so
like to greet them and take them by the
hand again With some of them have
had some most lovely battles in the
past, when we have bit, kicked and
scratched each other like the devil. but
God bless them all, love them still as
the years roll by"
Mr.. Hall. concluded with a warm
compliment to Minnesota hospitality.
Tie toast, "Thc Fathers of the Craft
was responded to by Hon. S. z. Jami-
son. Gen. Jamison dgressed sufficiently
from his theme to pay several pretty
compliments TO local newspaper men
and others Of the craft. Then in a
happy conversational vein hu spoke Of
the early days. saying that his only
regret was that be did not buy Mime
apolls in the early days. However, he
was not like Col. Stevens, who had
owned the city, and all he, the speaker,
could have bought, would have been
about a foot and half at that time.

In an exuberahce of brotherly love ard
a Christian spirit. Gov. Nelson then
narrated an experience he had with Mr..
Hall upon the occasion of the latter's
visit to Washington. in which he had
reminded HIM of the aid he had con-
tributed towards his election by his
opposition, and since when they had
been the best of friends. In conclusion.
he testified i'll eloquent language to the
high esteem in which he held the fra
ternlty in general, and to their power
and influence in the community.

Producing Mr.. Chamberlain. Mayor
Eustis euiogized the members of the
local press. Mr.. Chamberlain said big
guns were we'll enough IN their waV.
but that they sometimes refused to
shoot, and upon such occasions the little
ones were called into requisition. He
referred 10 the caliber of the other
guns with their brisiling batteries
of wit, their artillery OF repartes and
anacdote. He then drew a graphic,and
amusing picture of the life of the aver
age city newspaper reporter, whose sad
lot it is to be Shut out of meetings and

to become fat. sleek and prosperous

of Fl. P. Hall. on "Early Journalism In
Minnesota" but as Mr.. Hall had not
yet appeared his number was passed on
the list, and c. G. Whitney was called
to the platform for his excellent paper
entitled How to Conduct a Newspaper
(I1is paper is given in full on the sew
enth page.) as
The reading of this paper was fol-
lowed by an interesting discussion,t
participated in by George n. Lanphere,
Frank A. Day, DIR. Barret, Murphy,'
and others. DIR. Barret was especially
happy in his dealing with the question
Of cut prices. and John j. Ryder
strongly supported the position taken
by DIR. Barret. Mr.: Paradis, of the.
Midway News, also strongly fortified
the other speakers, who made stand
for full rates, but took the ground that
it was practically and actually i'm
possible to maintain such rates in
a city or largely populous community
were competition is rife. In the large
cities, he said. there we're SO many
small publications in which practically
no capital was invested. that 1t was not
practicable to bind them by the rules
OF an association. Mr.. Lange, of Da-
luth. cited the fact that in his city there
was the same class of competition rs
that referred to by Mr.. Paradis, but he
said he met such competition by simply
ignoring it, and holding out for the
natural patronage of his friends.
AT the conclusion of the discussion
upon Mr.. Whitney's paper, the associa-
ton listened to paper by 81. P. Hall.
of the GLOBE. on early journalism in
Minnesota" (Mr. Halls paper is printed
on the fifth and sixth pages.)

then proceeded to eulogize Col. John H.
Stevens. as the individual in question,
and in conclusion he introduced Col.
Stevens as the foremost pioneer editor
and resident of Minneapolis and the
state.
Col. Stevens was called upon, and he
said if he had not been an editor or
farmer he would have been a million
aire, as the city of Minneapolis now
stood on the ground where his farm
used to be. He gave brief but inter
esting resume of the early Gays, and
concluded by paying tribute to power
of journalism.
Mayor Eustis then proceeded formally
to welcome the editors to Minneapolis,
saying the city had nothing it could
give them. but they had things they
could give the CITY,.
The mayor wound up by a. happy
allusion to Mr.. johnson, as lie turned
over the keys of the city to the presi-
dent OF the association. saying that
Minneapolis had one Johnson who
could beat the record on skates or any.
thing else, and he hoped tile president
would keep up the reputation Of :he
family. \
President Johnson made happy re-
sponse, saying that lie not oaly accepted
the freedom of the city, but it accepted
the city itself. He made happy hit In
drawing contrast between the city and
the country newspaper men, saying that
the latter had great advantage. They
could see the gray dawn, if they rose

the Publishers Life" He said he did
not know of any solemn moments in the
life OF the country newspaper man,
except it was on occasions like the
present. He said they were banqueted
and given lot of things they did not
know how to eat, and as for himself he
never felt so hungry In his life. They
had come from the country to be told
how to make butter by city editor. and
1t was these and other things that made
them solemn. DR.. Barrett made good
many happy hits, which were warmly
applauded.
After another original selection by
the quartet. in which the couplets were
made to rhyme with Smith Hall, of the
Times. and Mayor Eustis. Rev. DR..
Shutter spoke on Craftsmanship and
the Press" just as he was about
to speak sensation was created
by the appearance in the hail
OF Robert q. Ingersoll, who was seated
next TO the mayor. In introducing DIR.
Shutter. Mayor Eusiis said he knew the
ministers of Minneapolis were CONVEX
SAINT with local craftsmanship from per-
sonal experience. In responding to hI,
toast. DR.. Shutter said he would be
brief for the reason that Col. IngersolI
came after him, and he said the Iatteg
