Loud Acclaim Saws, "Come."
An active effort is being made to Sc
cure the next annual meeting of the
american Travellers Protective Asso-
citation" for st. Paul. The session for
1894 begins at Milwaukee tomorrow, and
an active delegation from st. Paul will
be present to extend the hospitalities Of
this city to the organization in 1895.
There is no body of men in the count
try SO competent. and whose calling
gives them such opportunity to spread
the, glOries and advantages of a city
broadcast, as the "Traveling Mems AS.
soclation.'. They will be welcomed td
st. Paul with the hospitality for which
this city is so famous, hospitality td
which thousands who have visited us,
connected with other organizations, can
testify.
AS case in point, we quote from the
Cleveland Sun and Voice an interview
with Webb c. Ball, who recently at
tended the convention of the Brother.
hood of Locomotive Engineers in this
city. He says:
''They know how to treat people in
st. Paul" said Mr.. Ball to writer for
the Sun and Voice. You don't have
to be introduced to citizen Of ST. Paul
In the morning, again at noon, and still
another time in the evening i'll order
to get acquainted with him. If you
are properly presented to him, he
constitutes himself a committee OF one
freedom of the city. He will spare no
effort to make you have good opinion
of st. Paul, her institutions and her
people. A member of the local conn
mittee in charge Of the details of the
convention introduced party Of
engineers and myself to one
of the prominent men of the
city. lie made us feel at home in two
minutes. He was glad to have US come
to st. Paul. He wanted US to make q
long stay and have good time every
minute. Then he proved it by taking
us over to the Minnesota club. where
he presented us as citizens from Cleve-
land, and had credentials issued which
gave US the freedom of the club dur
ing our visit. l tell you, they are
glad to see visitors in st. Paul and they
let YOU know it. Cordiality of that kind
helps town; helps it to grow from
without by encouraging people to come
to the city and stay there; and to ex.
pand from within by creating spirit Of
friendliness among themselves and
stimulating local pride. Not merely
one. but scores of the engineers were
rendered the hospitality of the st. Paul
clubs"
The lake resorts, such as White Bear
and Minnetonka of large size, the
smaller lakes, such as Como. Harriet
and Calhoun. river excursions. visits to
historic Fort Smelling and Min.
nehaha. and withal an inspection
of st. Paul and Minneapolis, two
cities which are the marvel of the cen.
tury, and traversed by the most COM
plete electric system of cars in the
world. as we'll as abounding with de
lightful carriage drives. afford some OF
the attractions which make st. Paul
pre-eminent as place to visit, both fol-
business and pleasure.
A trip to Duluth and sail upon Lake
Superior, such as the Engineers en-
Joyeu, is an attracllOu nowhere else AZ
fOrded.
Add to all these the welcome which
st. Paul always extends to her guests.
ana there ought to be no doubt rela-
tive to tine acceptance of the in
vitation which will be eXtend-
ed to this great organization.
1t is given whole-hearted and free
handed. st. Paul will make the Travel.
ers feel that they have found a home at
last, where their ability and services are
appreciated and respected. The Com
mercial club, the Jobbers' union, the
chamber of commerce, the city. county
and state governments and the people
generally all unite in saying: Come"
and unite with business the comforts
and joys Of life.
