Plans are fairly we'll completed for the
entertainment of the visiting editors
and their ladies of the Second Con-
gressional District who will arrive here
to spend Saturday and Sunday in our
midst. The executive committee OF the
Editorial Association has been busy at
sending out notices of the meeting the
past week and from the number OF
acceptances so far received, large
number will be present to partake OF the
hospitality of which New Ulm is so justly
proud.
The scribes are expected to arrive
Friday evening or nearly Saturday and
it is presumed that many will come IN
their own cars for number OF the
editors of the District are such pluto
Gratis that they can afford to disregard
the railway strike which threatens to
interfere with the Convention. The
first number on the list of events schec-
uled for the day is the automobile TRIP
(. about the city. The cars will assemble
y at the Dakota House Saturday morning
before 9 o'clock and will proceed south
on Minnesota Street to First South
will turn down to the Northwestern
Station, passing the New Ulm Roller
Mill Plant and proceed to the Eagle
plant where trip thru the big mills is
being planned by Mr.. Vogtel. Leaving
the manufacturing district, the cars will
90 west on Third North to Minnesota
and then out past the new Lincoln
School to Fifth North, turning there
onto State and go out for circle about
the Fairgrounds, nursery and green
houses, thence to Loretto Hospital
where they will be given time to see the
Wav of the Cross. The cross road to
Herman's Heights will be followed and
after visit to the College and the Park,
with possibly Pipe Organ concert by
Prof. Reuter-, they cars will proceed to
the "Hundsruecken'' where the guests
will be given an opportunity to walk
over the hills and see one of the most
striking bits of scenery in Minnesota
and come back to the cars for the winding
drive about the foot of the hill and on
out to the Cottonwood. 1t is not
definitely decided yet as to whether the
trip will then proceed to the Poor Farm
but at any rate the breweries will be the
next point of attack and the return to
town will be via the new Hospital and
run thru town to show the new school,
house, the armory and some of the
representative residence streets.
After dinner, the visitors will have
time to rest up for the afternoon bust
ness and pleasure until two o'clock.
The ladies will then be entertained,
probably by a trip on the river, while
the men discuss matters of particular
import to the craft at business session
at Turner Hall, lasting until S o'clock.
The program for this session is as
follows:
]. Postal Laws and Regulations,
Their History and How They Affect
Newspapers.
y,a g.. Political Advertising.
3. General Advertising and How to
Reach the Merchant.
4. How to Make the Job Depart
ment Pay.
5. Question Box. .
At six o'clock four course banquet

Hall by the Ladies Society of the Turn
verein F. w. Johnson will speak and
John D. Deets of Mankato, Secretary
of the Southern Minnesota Better
- Development League will have for his
Subject, ''The Value of a Newspaper To
I a Community" New Ulm knows Mr.
Johnson's ability as public speaker too
we'll to be told that his talk will be well
worth hearing and John D. Deets is a
silver tongued orator who carries his
audience with him to the last word of his
offering. No two men could have been
chosen by the committee who would
better entertain an audience of the news
men.
Minor will the banquet and speeches
as1fose the pleasures of the day. The
~ New Ulm committee believe in making
the midsummer meeting of the writers
a real holiday to them and have engaged
