That Praiseworthy Reception.

In it's last issue the Tribune touched
on the hearty reception extended by
the citizens of Dodgeville to the BOOM
ing auto tourists of this city, but to
make it clearer to and the more to be
appreciated by those who were not
fortunate enough to participate therein
the following extract from the Sun
Republic is republshed:
1.-The Mineral Pointers were surprised
to see company of a hundred or more
of Dodgeville's most enterprising bust
ness and professional men in marching
order, with the Dodgeville City Band
at their head, lined up in the northern
part of the city, ready to extend to
them the 'glad hand" and the freedom
Of the city. Then began the march to
the Court House block, with the band
playing stirring march, the Dodge
vile merchants, with spritly stride,
and the Mineral Point automobiles,
with dirt and dust begrimed occupants.
For years no sight as thrilling has been
witnessed by the residents of Dodge
vile.
Here on the broad Court House steps
were assembled several hundred citi-
zens of Dodgeville, who joined in the
cheers of greeting. The boosters"
were amazed at such reception and
demonstration in their honor. Unable
to further confne his spirits, Attorney
j. j. Fielder of Mineral Point stood up
in his machine and called for three
cheers for Dodgeville. They were
given with a will. AS the cars lined up
along the street remarks were made by
different speakers from Dodgeville and
Mineral Point.
All arrangements for the entertain
ment of the pointers" were made
Thursday night by the local CONNER
cial club. 1t may be truly said. too,
that their preparations We're the height
of perfection. For once every man in
business forgot his petty grudges and
jealousy and got on the band wagon. -
The visitors in many ways showed their
appreciation. Their surprise at such a
reception all but overwhelmed them.
One member of the boosters" ex-
pressed his pleasure forcibly when he
said, Il thought that Mineral Point
knew how to entertain, but you fellows
make us look like mere amateurs.
Another feature of the reception was
the 'tagging" Of the Pointers" with
flowers by a number Of Dodgeyille's
beautiful girls and young ladies'. This
idea was suggested and managed by
Mayor and Mrs. w. p. Peters.

for veal could be turned over to fat
teners and let grow up on Wisconsin s
abundant fodder crops and in Wiscon-
sins excellent pastures, much good
meat would be added TO the supply.
This is a suggestion worth the
thought of Wisconsin's boomers. By
increasing the beef and pork produc-
ton of the state, they can not only put
good money in the pockets of Wiscon-
sin settlers, but aid in solving an inn
portant economic question.
