with their curious shouts.
The chairman then toasted the Pres
ident OF the United States In pro-
posing this toast he said that il was
corollary of the preceding, toast TO the
Queen. The President was regarded
with affection as the great head of a
great nation, and they hoped that his
successors would always be leaders in
the peaceful contets between the two
English speaking nations. The COM
pany then drank the toast TO the Pres,
ident standing. amidst cheers by all.
The chairman next toasted the
Prince of Wales and the other mem
bers OF the Royal family. He referred
in his speech to the Prince of Wales
connection with both military COM
panies. with the London company as a
member and with the Boston com
pany as an honorary member. Toasts
TO the army and navy and to the aux
Hilary forces followed.
The chairman then proposed the
toast of the evening by saying: Com
rades from Massachusetts, (cheers)
with much pleasure bid you a hearty
welcome A body of armed invaders
for the first time in 500 years has sue
cessfully landed on our shores. We
were comrades. but as relations We
hope it will not be presumption if we
say that the Honorable Artillery Com
pany greets it's visitors as fond parent
would greet its only offspring. All we
can say is it is high time you came
home and reported yourselves to head
quarters. (Cheers.) We regard your
stay as too brief, and we hope you will
return to America with an increased af-
lection for the English people, and that
you will disseminate it among your
countrymen. (Cries of 1--WE will."O l
now invite all to drink to the health of
our visitors, and I trust that this will
commence an epoch of real peace be-
tween the two peoples"
Captain Henry Walker, upon rising
to reply, was cheered for some minutes.
When he was allowed to speak he began
by saying: Friends, l will return sim
cere thanks for this candid welcome,
the forerunner of many greetings to
come from the blood of our race. 1t is
the same blood. This is still our home
across the waters" Captain Walker
then delivered an eloquent eulogy on
the Honorable Artillery Company of
London. He said: 1--WE come here on a
pilgrimage, and we know that there are
warm hearts behind this reception. :"
He also spoke of the loyalty and en-
thusiasm of both corps for their native
land, and said: Let these two compa-
MES be ever faithful to the principle
that if disaster shall ever come you
cannot say, did it."

MCKINLEY THE CHOICE.

There seems to he no doubt that
Mckinley has enough delegates elect
ed to control the convention at St.
Louis and it is altogether probable
that he will de nominated by accla-
nation. This fact will In itself 60
far towards assuring his triumphant
election, because it will relieve the
party Of the possible bitterness Of a
convention fight which sometimes
leaves sores that are hard to heal.
Such a nomination will in itself do
much TO enthuse and unite the party
and give them u prestige that will be
hard TO resist.
On the other hand democratic can
ditlatcs are still In the woods, while
pops stand waiting to see what the
democrats will do. II the democrats
and pops fuse this year on national
ISSUES, as is quite possible, then here
after the party Of whom Mr.. Cleve-
land is the representative, will retlre
as an active drganlzatlon from the
field Of politics. The other amalga-
nation will simply swallow each 9TH
er and-both will be badly troubled
with dyspepsia.

Hudson Bay Ra,lwav.

Winnipeg, Man, May "a delega-
tion Of prominent men from all parts
Of the Canadian West waited on Cana
da's premier, Sir Charles Tupper, to-
day and received a definite assurance
that his government would undertake
the construction Of the Hudson Bay
railway and steamship line. AS to
Sir Charles was due mainly the con-
structlon Of the Canadian Pacific rail.
way, from ocean to ocean, an under
taking so colossal that no, other
statesman had the courage to attempt
1t. his assurance is accepted by the
people.
Sir Charles said after careful In
vestigation he has become convinced
that the Hudson's bay and straits
were open to navigation at least four
or five months each year, aud that
the enterprise would be profitable
from its inception. Nature, he de.
clared, had intended Hudson bay us
the outlet for the grain exports OF the
Canadian West and Northwestern
states to the European markets. For
Manitoba, he added, the Hudson bay
route was rapidly becoming an abso-
Lutte necessity, for with the country's
rapid growth the Canadian Pacific
railway, big as it is, would soon be un-
able to carry all the grain to market.
For Great Britain, he pointed out, q
Hudson bay route would be of the
greatest Importance, for in the event
Of war with the United States troops
from England could be brought into
Canada safely and quickly. England,
he said, appreciated this and would
rapidly supply the necessary capital.

EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION.

7.sAa 'A1ASA SANeS1A0 SNAS0SA6AS A$eAN
Some Of the newspaper boys seem
to think an associatlontis Of no use.
Well an useless association ts useless.
We have attended several sessions OF
the North Dakota association and
while ut no time was there u large at
tendance, vet we always found it'good
to be there. The trouble with the
editorial association Ia, that 1t seems
impossible to have a full attendance.
The experiment OF holding such
meetings at the time of state conven-
tlons Is failure, because all the edi-
tors are politicians and are too much
interested IN politics just then. On
the other hand when held at other
times, the question Of expense be-
comes q very serious one. Leaving
out the question Of railroad mileage,
North Dakota is a long distance state
and its railroads are pot planned for
quick transit within its borders ex-
cept in certain directions.
For most Of US, it ID usually a much
shorter trip In time, and often In dis
tance to st. Paul, than to almost any
point within our state, except per-
haps Grand Forks or Fargo. Many Of
our country editors, do much Of their
own type setting, and run their papers
with the help of one Or two inexperi-
enced boys. A trip to the editorial
association. means perhaps two DAYS to
GO, two days to return and day or
two at the meeting. Meantime
somebody must get out the paper.
So with the necessary expense while
away and the increased expense at
home, 1T must be something to at
tract, to induce the country editor to
go to editorial meetings. Sometime,
when we get those northeast and
southwest railroads, this part of the
problem will be partially solved.
This matter Of time away, also
cuts figure In the discussion of the
place Of this summers meeting.
DEVILS Lake is 9 nice town and has
many natural advantages as pleas

1 ISSUED FRIDAY MORNING.
s2.Oo PER ANNUM
TERMS,

THE PICKLER PENSION BILL.
The Picker pension bill, passed by
the house, contains some objection
able provisions, but as whole it will
not fail to receive the approval Of the
country. It's general purpose Is to un-
do as far as possible the evil results Of
the democratic pension policy and to
protect the soldiers against further
wrongs in the adjustment Of their
claims under the laws enacted for
their benefit. The fact is we'll known
that the present administration has
persistently conducted the pension
system in an unfriendly spirit toward
those who fought the battles that saw.
ed the union. Instead Of striving to
promote the rapid and helpful distri-
!. button of pension funds to those hav-
ing just and fair rights In that rela-
tion. it has used every expedient to
delay and defeat such payments, thus
preventing the money from reaching
those to whom it belonged and who
stood III sore need Of assistance.
Thousands Of names have been drop.
ped from the pension rolls in al arbi-
trary and surreptitious way; and
thousands of applications have been
rejected on frivolous pretexts and
with offensive tnsinuations of dis
honesty on the part Of the applicants.
It is the principal object Of the
Picker bill to put stop to the .sys-
tematic betrayal OF great and sacred
trust. The interests of the soldiers
represent a sentiment Of national
gratitude and generosity which should
not be hindered In disappointed and
practical operation by political pre-
judice and animosity. 1t is the de-
sire Of the people that disabled and
dependent veterans shall have reason
able succor, and that the process Of
obtaining the money appropriated Tor
this purpose shall be:made O. easy aud
expeditions po.sib ls, conslstent

gationo OF claims or the Interpretation

diers out Of their rights. 1t provides
in a general way for The slmpliflca-
tion of pension Office methods, and for
the restriction Of official discretion in
the rejection of claims for frivolous
and insufficient reasons. Such legis-
lation is demanded for the legitimate
enforcement Of the will Of the people
with regard to the debt which they
owe to the men whose valor preserved
the government, .A sto be hoped
therefore, that the senate will pass
the Pickler bill at an early day.-Man.
