Normal School Opening.

Superior's Normal school opened for
It's second term on Monday last, with a
large number of students in attendance
from the city and outside towns. Last
years enrolment was a gratifying sur
prise, but from present indications the
enrolment this year will be even greater
and number about $50. The number of
High school graduates in attendance
from other counties has increased. as
has also the attendance of local high
school graduates, and the tendency of
High school undergraduates to change
to the Normal school has been dlscour-
aged. The training department, or
model school, is unable to accommo-
date all the applicants. The grammar
and intermediate departments are al
ready flied.

ArnnOr Plate MeetinS.

meeting held on last Monday even
ing to consider the claims of the Head
of the Lakes to the government armor
plate foundry was attended by the most
prominent men in the city.
Speeches We're made by L. S. Butler,
Regent Ostrander, President McNeill,
W. {. Owen and others, urging the
advantages our land-locked harbor off
ers as safe point for such an industry,
not to say anything of the proximity of
iron mines and smelling works, which
latter advantages are considerations Of
sufficient weight in themselves to have
great influence with the government.
As for the exact location of the foun-
dry, that is matter can, we fancy, be
arranged between the two cities when
the government decides in favor of the
Head of the Lakes. To our minds there
is only one place for it, and that is near
the Steel plant and the smelling works
of West Superior. What is wanted Just
now is united action in order to secure
the foundry.
A committee consisting of John A.
Monser (chairman), Senator Thos. b.
Mills. Mayor G. S. Starkweather, James
Bardon, W. c. Owen and John +.
Murphy was appointed to confer with a
committee from Duluth.
Hon. Charles ID. Sheldon, of Hough-
ton, Mich, is to be IN the city soon to
confer with Congressman Jenkins and
Morris in reference to the location of
the plant at this point.

The Cry of Hard Times.
Secretary.

1t is the fashion to cry Hard times,'
And yet one finds that the times are
much better than they were; that I'M
provements are being made; that work
is increasing. One would really doubt
that hard times exist were he to take a
ride on one of the modern, finely
equipped trains of the Saint Paul & Du-
luth Railroad, for the crowds are GER
tainly evidence, of prosperity. The
rush to the many summer resorts along
this line has been greater this year than
ever, showing that their popularity is
increasing. Everybody likes the Duluth
Short Line, because it affords popular
service between the Twin Cities and
the head Of the lakes and always con-
suits the best interests of It's patrons
For maps, circulars, etc, apply to ticket
agents, or write to c. f.. Stone, General
Passenger Agent, st. Paul. Mimi.

The Presidents Response to the
Toast THE Country and
Its Defenders

At the banquet in Buffalo on Tuesday
night last, President Mckinley, who
was enthusiastically welcomed, in re-
spouse to the toast, The country and
its defenders spoke as follows:
Mr.. Toastmaster and comrades, and
my fellow citiZens:-I wish l might
frame fitting words TO make suitable
response to the more than gracious well
come which you have accorded me here
/ tonight. l come with no set form of
speech; come with no studied phrases
! to present to You, but l come in the
/ spirit of comrateship -(appiause Ito talk
with you as we have often talked in the
past, around the campfires IN war as
well as at camp fires in peace. To me,
| see by the program, has been assigned
the toast The country and its defend
ers." Ny fellow citizens, blessed is
that country whose defenders are pa
triots. (Applause.) blessed is that
country whose soldiers fight for it and
who are willing to give the best they
have, the best that any man has, their
own lives, to preserve it because they
love 1t. (Applause.) Such an army the
United States has always commanded
in every crisis of her history. Gap
plause.)
From the war of the revolution to the
civil war the men followed that flag in
battle because they loved that flag and
believed in what it represented. Gap
plause.) That was the stuff OF which the
volunteer army of 81 was made. (Ap-
plause.) Everyone of them not only
fought, but they thought -(applause) y
and many of them did their own think
ing-(laughter and applause and did
not always agree with their commander
daughter and applause). like that young
soldier who, in the late war, upon the
battle line, ahead With the color guard
bearing the stars and stripes, way in
front of the line, but the enemy still in
front of him.
The general called out to the color
bearer: Bring those colors back to the
young soldier answered back Bring
the line up to the colors." prolonged
applause.) 1t was the voice of COM
mand there was a man behind it, and
there was patriotism in his heart
So nigh to grandeur is our dust,
SO near to God is man.
When duty whispers: Lo, thou must
The youth replies, | can
men thus responded, and made an
army grander than any army that ever
shook the earth with its tread-(ap-
plause)-and engaged in holier cause
than ever soldiers did before. What
defenders, my countrymen, have we
now? We have the remnant of the Old,
magnificent, matchless army of which
have been speaking and then as allies
in any future war, we Lave the brave
men who fought against us on southern
battletields. (Applause.) The army of
Grant and the army of Lee are together.
(Applause.) They are one now in pur-
pose and in an invincibe patriotism.
(Applause.) Therefore the country Is

justice strong, in policy secure and in
devotion to the flag all one. (Appause. y
My fellow cOuntrymen, l thank you
and bid you good night prolonged
applause.)

klOnJike.
(Longfellow up to date)

Longfellow up to datc)
The shades of night were falling fast
AS through his native village passed
man with saddened eye and dim.
With this sign fastened onto him:
klondike."
His eye. like phosDhorescent spark
Glowed like cats eye in the dark;
His cheek afiame with Inward fire,
As muttered ne his one desire:
klondike."
All fieeced and woo!ly was his coat.
From off "a sheep or billygoat;
A coonskin cap was on his head
He hurried on and only said:
klondike'
A spade to dig the golden sand
He carried in his strong right hand;
His left a ten-quart pail did hold.
In which TO bring his dust of gold
From klondke.
Beside him trotted as he went
A humble dog with sorrow bent;
foresceing fate from selfish man.
In omeu> of the frying pan,
In kIondikc.
ne thlikoot pass. the old man said.
Is over yOnder-up ahead
The solemn miner somewhat vcxed.
Said: &" Let 'er pass. l make il next
For klondike."
"Oh. stay" the maiden said. and rest
Thy weary head upon this breast"
go to-" he cried; thy love will trust
The fellow whe brings back the dust
From klondike."
- Beware the price of garden truck;
Beware the nimble gay Canuck."
This was the farmers last goodnight;
And take the first road to the right
For klOndike."
4 man was found. to neck in snow
And hauled out by the Esquiudux.
All solid. rigid, stiff and dead
His idea frozen in his head
klondike.
On IukOn's bank at break OF day,
LifcleSs but we'll preserved he lay,
While DER his head in solid ice
They carved this simple, plain device:
klondike."

information of the overland route to the
gold fields is that Chilko0t Pass Is pass

date. This would seem to indicate that
At Is entirely possible TO reach the gold
fields BY the overland route from here
this year.
The matter OF the trip to Daw son City
has been considered by the railroad people
and the Seattle provision people with
so much energy during the last few days
that taey are now actsall not only offer
