A Few Observations Regarding

and Collectively.
Great is Great Falls-'sfor wind, wat
err and future" But greater still is she
than her sisters in the m%atchless enter
prise and generous hospitality of her
proud citizens. The editors meeting af-
forded n more grand demonstration of
the above-named truth. The HERALD
was represented at the meetings, gather
ing fresh enthusiasm at every turn
sometimes it came from a spigot, some
times from the mouth of a long necked
bottle-more kinds of enthusiasm than
our space will permit us to describe. A
minute of the meetings will not be at
tempted here. But it is more fitting
that the matter and manner of entertain
ment should have due mention. In this
particular Great Falls turned herself
loose with suderordinary grace and told
her visitors to help themselves.
On Thursday night the gang was
treated to a humorous lecture by the re-
nowned Press Woodruff. His speeches,
full of high-class fun, were ~interspersed
with grand musical selections by Madam
Ericke's orchestra. Excursions free to
the press were given by steamer up the
Missouri, and via motor lines to the dam,
smelters and mills. We were kindly es-
corted by the affable manager Of the
Royal Milling company, w. M. Atkin-
son, through the various departments of
their busy mill. He explained the pro-
cess of making the various grades of
flour up to the celebrated Rex, acknow-
lodged by all to be without peer. A Wis
itor to this mill is at once impressed
with the remarkable neatness and clean
illness which is maintained throughout
the establishment. Mr.. Atkinson told
our scribe that the run for the day pre-
vious was 367 barrels of fine flour, while
the prodnct of that days run would
probably exceed $50 barrels.
The people of Neihart are pleased at
the splendid train of excursionists who
saw fit to visit their camp last Saturday.
1t was a visit long to be remembered by
our people and which will doubtless re-
dound to the ultimate good of the camp.
The press of the state was especially
welcome; for to that class of people we
must look for a thorough dissemination
of the vital truths which give to our state
the well deserved title of "Banner of the
Northwest" TO the newspapers must
we look to have the facts of our great
resources set forth to the world. Then
the benefit accruing to the editors is in
computable, for the ladies of Neihart are
more than ever friendly to editors since
the splendid array of manly forms and
beaming countenances passed through
our streets. The editors of Montana are
much handsomer than are the members
of other professions.
The folio wing interesting stats" in
connection with the brainy excursion
were found to fit the intellectual sub
jects with even better propriety than any
serial story or prolonged flight of rhet-
oricals. Some of these gems were never
written on earth, but were left on the
Office table by the recording angel as
she made her regular trip to the HERALD
rooms, the editor aiding her in revis-
ing the list of old sinners for this COM
munity.
And Here You Are.
Last Chance l.. Harris was in the city
Saturday younger than ever.
