lance was replete With incidents"
Everyone had a splendid time and
when the announcement was made that
Idaho was left behind and the train
was travelling in Utah, there We're
cheers for Utah-by the contingent
which was awake. The time of de-
parture from Boise was 1886 p. m. Fri
| day, and the moment of arrival here
10 a. m, the train being only so minutes
late, a good run, all things considered
The run from Ogden down was made
in an hour and not 80 minutes as has
been stated, an impossible feat con-
sidering the stops.
The train bearing the Utah legisla-
ture was passed at Woods Cross. The
Idahoans cheered for the Alfalfa club"
as the trains passed and were effusive-
ly greeted by the Utahnians for the
brief period required for two trains to
pass.
President Nebeker of the senate,
Senator Chambers, Speaker Perkins of
the house and Representative Kimball
OF Cache, did not go to Logan, but
remained behind to take care of the
guests. 1t is indeed doubtful if four
better selections could have been made.
The committee recognized the fact that
the visitors desired time in which to
locate themselves and after bidding

o'clock an excursion to Fort Douglas
would leave the corner of Main and
Second South streets per the cars of the
Salt Lake City railroad.
The visitors found homes at the vari-
Gus hotels and from that time until
o'clock took in the town" as it were.
Some visited the bathing resorts and
dabbled in the warm waters: others

the temple and tabernacle; many in
spected the Il. c. NJ. / while not a few
took trips on the suburban lines to
the outside additions.
TRIP TO THE POST.
The Salt Lake City Railway company
had its cars on hand promptly at 2
o'clock and large number of the WISH
tors were taken to the post Many of
them expressed great admiration at the
view obtained from the east bench, de-
claring that in summer it must be
perfectly grand. When they arrived at
the post they were entertained by the
field and line officers and their stay
made extremely pleasant. Lieutenant
c. e. French, Fourth United States In
fantry, on duty with the National
Guard of Idaho. who was one of the
party, was at one time in the same
regiment as Colonel Kent and his pres
ence proved very happy, especially in
the way of introduction. The post and
its surroundings, the splendid quarters
of both officers and men, were OBJ
jects of great admiration. The band
rendered the visitors a special concert
which occasioned much favorable
comment. The time spent at the post
was thoroughly enjoyed by both Of
ficers and visitors.
RECEPTION AT THE KNUTSFORD.
President George Q. Cannon, Colonel
T. G. Weber, w. a. Nelden and other
business men of the city arranged for
a reception at the Knutsford during
the afternoon, which was a very pleas
ant affair. Upon the return of the party
from the post they were taken to the
hotel, where the receiving party
awaited them. Senator r. c. Cham
bers presided, and for an hour the best
of fellowship prevailed.
An orchestra located near the dining
room discCursed exquisite music be-
tween speeches and while the visitors
were getting acquainted with our citi-
Zens.
PRESIDENT CANNON.
President Cannon made a short open
ing address, ard began by saying that
the same conditions that confronted
the people of Idaho confronted the
people of Utah. They had similar in
terests and were bound together in
every way. There had been great
changes in both states during the past
Eve wears, and the two elements that
formerly confiicted We're now united
and harmonious. which was very pleas |
ing 20 him. He cordially welcomed
the visitors to Utah.
