RUSHING THINGS
Northwestern Radiator People Are
Great HuStlerS
TAKES FORM
Building Is Up and all Enclosed,
the Work Going Rapidly Fer
ward Every Day

If any person cherishes the idea
that Sank Centre people are not hust-
lers, all he needs is to completely dis
abuse his mind of that idea is to go
out to the site of tthe Northwestern
Radiator factory just north of the
Northern Pacific yards.
That place is a veritable hive of
industry. The building is about done.
The work of laying the. brick for the
engine and stock rooms was complet-
ed on Tuesday, only a week being
necessary to do it. The main build
ing has been raised nd practically en-
closed. A good force of men have
hustled and hustled hard to bring this
about. w. McNeice is on the ground
all the time and is ably assisted by
Ed. Buck, who is to be superintendent
Of the factory when it opens. The
way these two gentlemen keep things
moving along is worth seeing.
The force of workmen has been
hampered a good deal by bad weather,
nevertheless, they have kept right at
work, regardless of the elements.
The boiler and engine arrived a week
OF more ago and this machinery is
nearly placed. Other machinery is
expected soon. With the work pro-
crossing at the rate that it has been
moving thus far there is no reason
to doubt that everything will be in
readiness to start the factory by the
first of February, 1909, as was at
first planned. T. Holland IS in the
east getting machinery and will re-
turn short time before the factory
starts up.
The vim with which this enterprise
has been pushed from the very start,
is the subject of much favorable COM
ment here. Every man who has any
thing to say speaks in the most COM
plimentary terms of the spirit which
has been and is being shown. 1t is
realized that the factory means much
t. Sauk Centre. A goodly number of
men are employed already in the
building of the factory and when it
starts up it will give employment to
a larger number. This means that
the business of the city will be ma
terially increased.

the nation is indebted for the privi-
leges it now enjoys. The speaker
closed with a beautiful peroration in
which he quoted scripture which ap-
piled to the old soldiers, and urged
his comrades to be ready for the fin
al mastering out.
Gen. Catterson told stories of the
war and related a number of his ex-
periences. He paid high compliment
to the work of the Union soldier. He
emphasized the idea that the Ameri-
can soldier and sailor are second to
none, and was firm in the belief that
no nation on earth dare fight the
United States. In this connection he
related an amusing incident. He said
he was conversing with a German not
long after the war with Spain. The
Teuton had remarked that it was easy
to whip second rate nation, but
that If Germany should war with the
United States it would be different
proposition. WELL" replied Gen. Cat
terson to the German, you fellows
Just try it if you dare. Well fill the

A GREAT OVATION
Governor J0hnSOn'S Home Town
Does Him Honor
WELCOMES HIM HOME
Gives Tremendous Demonstration to
the Governor and Fremstad the
Great Diva

On Thursday, Nov. II, the city of
st. Peter, for third time, paid
tribute to it's foremost citizen, John
a. Johnson This demonstration ex-
ceeded those that had preceded it, and
that is saying a good deal. Special
trains carried crowds to st. Peterward
from different parts of the state The
governor arrived in a special about
noon, and with him in his car. was
Nine. Olive Fremstad, the great diva,
whose girlhood was spent in st. Pet
er. and who was one of the governors S
playmates in the early days. There was
something doing all day and half the
night. At the opera house in the af-
ternoon there was a tremendous dem
onstration. Governor Johnson spoke.
F'remstad sang, and we'll known speak
ers talked. The last speaker on the
list was Congressman c. r. Davis, of
ST. Peter, who closed his speech with
the remark: 1--WE will now adjourn
to meet here in 1912" The demonstra-
ton was entirely non-partisan. The
Herald reproduces here an extract
from the pen of Miss Mary McFadden,
the well known correspondent of the
Duluth News-Tribune, which des-
cribes the scenes of the day in fine
style:
John A. Johnson, three times elect
ed governor of Minnesota, came home
today at the invitation of the friends
ard neighbors in whose circle he was
born. With him came the worlds
greatest living Wagnerian soprano.
Olive Fremstad. who spent her humble
childhood here, and who had come to
help her old friends do honor to her
former schoolmate. Freemstad went
with the governor to Gustavus Adol-
phus college and sang four folklore
songs for the students.
'The governor and his party were
taken to the opera house which had
been overcrowded for almost an hour
and he was given such an ovation that
his speech of acknowledgment was
husky with feeling and his words
came haltingly from trembling lips.
The great diva sang more songs and
gave many gracious encores. Then
catching the governor by the hand
she led him to the front and the
audience arose as one individual and
shook the foundations of the building
with their demonstrations. 1t was an
occasion that made every citizen of
the valley present tingle with excite
ment-the governor, a national fig
ure; the prima donna, world charac-
ter and both remembered as patched
and struggling children among the
people before them'

WELCOME
Meth0dists Give Reception to
Their New Pastor
A PLEASANT FUNCTION
Members of Church and COngrega-
ton Devote An Evening to
Greeting Their Preacher

The good people of the Methodist
Episcopal church rendered their new
pastor, Rev. ]. T. Brabner Smith, and
| Mrs. Smith, formal welcome last
week Thursday evening.
A public reception was held at the
church and it was a very pleasant af-
fair. The function was largely attend
I'd by the members of the church and
congregation, and a number who be-
| long to other denominations.
Mr.. and Mrs. Smith stood in front
Of the pulpit platform when receiving
As the people pressed forward to meet
them, they were introduced to Mrs
Smith by Mrs. Sylvia Townsend. Mr.
Smith stood at Mrs. Smiths left, and
at his left were members of the Of
ficial board of the church, Messrs. j.
l.: Hartley, Frank Pangburn and E.
j.. Compton. The new pastor ard his
wife had a pleasant word for all and
both proved themselves good mix
ers.'
After an hour of informal social
chat, a short musical program was Civ
eu Miss Mildred Lothrop pleased the
entire assembly with a solo and
gracefully responded to a hearty en-
core. Miss Lothrop was in fine voice
and charmed all with her fine rem
diction of the two selections. The
Raraca Quartette then rendered Sc
lection and responded to an encore.
Following this, refreshments were
served in the church parlors. A long
table bearing the viands stood in the
center of the room and guests were
sc ated near by. At either end of the
table sat Mesdames H. F. Henneman
and Geo. Butler, who poured the cof-
fee. A number of young ladies of the
church waited on the guests.
After supper had been served a hall
hour or more was spent in social chat.
Just before the Baraca quartette left
the church they sang Good Night,
ladies' which was received with ap-
plause. Shortly afer this the gather
ing broke up.
The new pastor has made an excel
lent impression in Sauk Centre. He
will undoubtedly make good" all
along the line. AS a sermonizer Mr..
Smith stands we'll among the Metho-
dist clergy of Minnesota, while as a
pastor he gives every indication of
being a success. The reception did
much to bring pastor and people
together socially and to pave the
way for a successful years work.

ALL GIVE THANKS
GOyernO: Johnson Issues Thanks.
giving Proclamation
REQUESTS ALL TO JOIN
Thursday, November rs, the Day Set
Aside to Observe the Annual
Custom

Governor Johnson, last Saturday, is
sued his annual Thanksgiving Procla
nation. Here's the document:
STATE OF MINNESOTA.
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.
We are come again to the sea-
son of the year when natures
ever recurrent task of creation,
growth and fruition has been ac-
complished. For nature and for
man, insofar as his pursuits are
closely related to or determined
by natural processes, the year is
done, the task accomplished, the
reward won. Now is at hand ma
lures rest time, when she prepares
herself for another period of activ-
ity and fruitfulness. And though
in the office, yet the tiller of the
soil finds the winter period of COM
parative quiet. Ours is still an
agricultural state, great as are its
manifold manufacturing industries,
and the end of the seasonal year Is
the end of the popular year. We
measure our prosperity from gran
ary filling round to granary fill
ing.
AS We look back to the last
stopping place in his endless cycle
of time, the people Of Minnesota
see much to rejoice them and lit
tie to discourage, much to be
thankful for and little to regret:
much they find in solid achieve
ment, much they see of promise
for the future. Our farms have
yielded abundantly and our farm
ers are prosperous. The world
eagerly takes from them at gener-
GUS prices all of their surplus.
And in this state the prosperity
Of the farmer becomes ultimately
the prosperity of all.
1t is true that the business world
has had some experience of tight
purse strings, chatting inactivity,
and curbing caution; but while our
goodly state of Minnesota has shar-
ed in this national misfortune and
hard experience, it has not suffer-
ed keenly but rather less than
most of it's sister commonwealths.
The experience has been salutary.
if drastic, and will tend, as has
been we'll said, to make us prize
comfort more and luxury less. A
feeling of thankfulness is in the
hearts of all for the good that is
ours, and We feel that the future
promises much. 'a..
1t is meet and proper, there
fore, that as a people of deep re-
ligious feeling, for all our absorp-
tion in worldly pursuits; We should
follow the good custom, now long
established, and set aside a day
for the giving of thanks to the
Creator.
AS an evidence of gratitude and
in conformity to usage, ], John
A. Johnson, Governor of the State
of Minnesota, do hereby proclaim
Thursday, November 26, A. d.
1908, as a general Day of Thanks
giving.
Upon that day let our people
assemble in their customary places
of worship and join in services In
dicative of their gratitude, and
pray for a continuation of divine
mercy for the future.
In witness whereof, have here
unto subscribed my name ana
caused the Great Seal of the state
to be hereto affixed, at the capi-
tol in the City of Saint Paul, this
fourteenth day of November, A. D.
1908.
