A change was here given to the pro-
gram In a most pleasing solo by Bert
Price, with Armour q Co., who, after
rendering In a clear baritone voice, y
popular song, "The Roses" was re-
called, and gave a humorous song
that met with the heartiest approval.
Chairman Richards complimented
the state In having a supreme court
without a stain upon 1t and intro.
duced Judge A. A. Bruce, who had
been fr%aternizing with Judge w. G.,
Crawford, to give the next address.
Judge Bruce spoke OF the great
change that had come over eastern
people relative to the state of which
we, her people. are justly proud. We
were tolerated, said Judge Bruce, by
the rest of the United States years
ago, simply because we were an In.
tegral part OF the union, but today
North Dakota is received for her own
sake. Indeed, II is fast becoming one
of the ideal states OF the union. We
have in her a cohesiveness, a sO-part-
nershlp and a oneness that appeals
to other states, and that makes what
would otherwise be a disintegrated
body, a compact, composite whole.
The nationalities represented in the
state bring some Of the unworthy
traits from the old land, it is true, but
the major qualities are those for
good and welded together make q
perfect whole. The east, that cast a
slur on our fair %escutcheon, minim.
izing our culture, education and NOR
al life, is today seeking, through it's
sons and daughters. an entrance into
our life. 1t is when you hear them
knocking at the door, seeking an en-.
trance into the very heart of that
which has been ignored, that real
value is discovered. Our mineral re,
sources, commercial opportunities and
boundless prairie lands could support
so, 0O0, 900 people just as well as Bel.
GUM or other of the congested coun-
tries of the world. Our soil pOssibili.
ties are making North Dakota the
mecca for a worlds immigration.
Henry Klein, who, with his party,
joined the touring party at Richard
ton, was introduced by Mr.. Rihards as
one Of the welLknown hustlers from
made an interesting speech.
The keynote of Mr.. Klein's address
was the value OF competition. No
town or city could expect TO make
Roadway without the push that com.
petition makes.
Clarence Winters, chairman of the
publicity committee, entered very fu =
ly into details relative to the October
fair. Mr.. Winters said that the rail
| roads were each viewing with the other
as to space and position for exhibits.
The management contemplated a TO-
OOGfOot floor space, as against 1000
last year. There will be special days,
N. P. day, 500 day, Milwaukee day,
Old Settlers day, Union day and the
added interest Of = dog and poultry
show, with entries from kennels in
7 Chicago, Winnipeg and the Twin
Cities. New buildings will be erected
for dairy products, for more machin.
cry and the interesting sight OF i silo
being built on the grounds will draw
the crowd. :.
President Richards then gave an
open field to the orators of the Capita
City, but having had their views
| voiced by the previous speakers, none
responded. The meeting closed with
informal talks and the thanks Of the
Bismarck crowd for the favors ex.
tended in the reception given. "
