Gatt}emen Of the Ndjite Press ASSOCIATIONS.
IL IL my pleasing duty on behalf of the
kentville Board of Trade, to tender you
hearty welcome to our town. We hope
your visit, although it is limited in point Of
time, will nevertheless be an agreeable and
interesting one. 1t is our desire that our
people should be better understood. and our
country better known by our kinsman of the
great republic.
We have, therefore, made arrangements
which, weather permitting, will enable you
to see something of our charming town and
of the beautiful adjacent country. We
cherish the hope that when you return to
your homes you will be able to tell your
people that you found their Nova Scotian
kindred to be happy, contented, industrl-
Gus, and prosperous people, and that if, I'M
forum ately, their noses are blue it is not on
account either of the GOODNESS of their hearts,
the sterility of their lands, or the cheerless-
ness of their climate. We think you will be
also able to tell thell that possess
beautiful, fertile, and well-cultivated coun-
try, replete with lovely and picturesque
scenery, and interesting by reason of histor-
ical and traditional associations. We wish
your people to get into the habit of visiting
us, and we think you will be able to assure
them that they cannot more prohtably nor
more enioyably spend holiday or vacation
than with their Bluenose cousins amid the
romantic scenery which has been hallowed
by the genius of y our immortal Longfelow.
In word wish you to take us as we
are, and report of us exactly as you lind us;
and trust that you Will carry away with
YOU nothing but pleasant "reminiscences of
YOUR visit TO Kentville and the land of
EvangeIine, aud a settled determination to
repeat the visit at the earliest convenient
opportunity.

House Military Affairs Committee
Favorable.

House Military Affairs Committee
Favorable.
There was only one vote in the House
committee on military affairs today against
favorably reporting the Senate bill provid-
ing for two additional regiments of arti!-
lery. It was delivered by Mr.. Cox of Ten
nessee.
There was an informal discussion of the
necessity of these two additional regiments
to man the coast defenses Of the country.
and some general opposition was expressed
by Mr.. Cox to increasing the army. He
contended that, in the event of war, the
volunteers could. man these guns. He also
expressed the opinion that reporting this
bill, which has been before Congress for
several years, at this particular time might
be misunderstood by the country. He
thought 1t might be construed as direct
action by Congress in preparation for war.
On the other hand. 1t was contended by
those who declared that they did not be-
lieve that war was imminent, that refusal
to report the bill might also be miscon-
strued. The sentiment in the committee.
however, was overwhelming for these two
additional regiments to properly man guns
which are being erected along the coast
