prohibitionists, apostles of Mckinley
ism inveighors against high tariff,
sporting editors and religious editors.
They will not parade the streets at 8
o'clock this morning, as had been set
| forth on the bills. The Wisconsin dele
CATION, which is the largest of them all,
| cannot get to Zion until 1:20 PM, when
| they will come in over the Rio Grande
Western. Besides this, there are many
minor details that have not yet been
definitely acted upon, and another
meeting this morning will be neces-
sary to take final action and perfect
the programme. To this meeting news
paper men and the public are invited.
The Order of Parade.
The parade will not begin until
o'clock. At that hour the scribes will
form for march in front of the Atlas
! building, and the order of parade will
| be as follows:
The band.
Carriages containing Governor West,
| Mayor Baskin and George Q. Can
non, chairmon of the reception
committee.
| Carriages containing distinguished Wis
itors.
Visiting lady editors.
Salt Lake Ladies' Press club.
Delegations by states.
From the association building the
editors will move on to West Temple,
from there to the temple block, then
east to Main, down to Third South,
east to the Knutsford hotel, and from
there to the theatre, where the work of
| the convention will be carried on.
Last night a preliminary meeting
was held at the press association
rooms and several matters of moment
were disposed of. The whole pro-
gramme was not finally completed,
! though, as most of the Republican
members of the association were en-
joying themselves at the festivities at
Saltair. The question of suitable dec
orations absorbed much time in the
meeting. Jake Greenewald was ap-
pointed to take charge of this depart
ment and streamers with appropriate
notices will be hung in the theatre.
Over the stage will be a large banner
| bearing the inscriptions: welcome.
The Pen is Mightier Than the Sword"
Brigadier-General r. W. Young was
selected as marshal of the day and
Messrs. Shoemaker and Flaske will as
sist him in seeing that the scribes make
a gallant showing in the parade.
AT the Theatre.
According to the present arrange
ments the scribes will Immediately pro-
coed to business after reaching the
theatre. An organization will at once
be made and very likely all that will
be accomplished at that session will
be the appointment of a committee on
| credentials and whatever other com
mittees are needed. A special car will
leave for Saltair at o'clock. and the
meeting will be adjourned in time for
the scribes to reach the r. G. w. de-
pot at that hour.
SaItair Festivities.
AT Saltair there will be great festiv-
tiles Tables will be arranged on the
west side of the pavilion and covers
| will be spread for as many delegates
as can go there. Judge Powers will
do the honors of toast-master in his
inimitable manner and Salt Lakes
most distinguished literary and news
paper lights will assemble at the feast.
Toasts will be given by Hon. George
Q. Cannon, Judge Goodwin. Charles c.
Bennett and c. W. Penrose.
Just previous to the banquet and as
the sun goes down gloriously under the
western wave, the visitors will take a
dip in the great inland sea. After this
! feature and the banquet, dancing on
the great pavilion will be the attrac-
ton for the scribes and is expected to
hold the attention of all until mid
night.
A special band of superior musical
talent will be on the platform and the
Sixteenth infantry band will be pres
ent and will discourse stirring music
all through the day. The return to
the city will be made at midnight.
Work of the Second Day.
The second day will initiate the
work Of the convention in earnest. This
i time the editors will assemble in the
council chamber Of the city and county
building and proceed to discuss the af-
i fairs which Immediately concern the
visit of the journalists. The subject
of irrigation in the arid west, the reIa-
ton of the press to the railroads., the
! prevalent laws as to libel and other
/ subjects of equal moment to journal
ism in the western empire will be
thoroughly ventilated. Perhaps the
chief action of the convention will be
an attempt to unite in one organiza-
ton all newspaper associations of the
trans-M Mississippi country. This viii
be the day of most importance to the
delegates and the delibera tons will
very likely last until about o'clock
