Press Meeting q Success

The success Of the press meet
ing held in Bismarck last Friday
and Saturday cannot be told any
better than the way l.. 7. Guild,
editor of the Fargo Courier-News
has told it. He says:
cit is distinctly a great ex-
perience to come into a state an
entire stranger; become editor OF
a daily newspaper Of wide cir
culation in it; meet the problems
of management and get really in
to the newspaper Life Of the
state. That experience has been
for me and l seem to have fully
entered it by attending the an
nual meeting Of the North Da-
kota Press Association.
"What a bunch Of bright, hust
ling, brotherly fellows this same
"press gang" is, and how en-
Enthusiastically they enter into
their fun and work! The adj
dresses We're Of high order, the
program was fine; the wit was
keen and repartee always quick
and bright. And this stranger
were made to feel that there neNlt
was a more genuine, cordial
brotherly association Of men
gathered together. II there are
any enmities, distrusts, bitterness,
in competition, they we're not
brought to the meeting. This
writer doesn't believe there are
any among them. These men are
too big, too generous, too saga.
cious to allow little grudges, jeal-
ousies, trade difficulties, to enter
their lives.
81 am more in love with North
Dakota than ever-which is say
ing a good deal. It's great
big, wide safe, with lots Of room;
it's people are robust, red blood
ed, holding convictions and not
opinions. They are moral
and care enough for their child
rem to keep the saloon out; they
are progressive enough to estab-
lish institutions and enact laws
covering the. progressive policies
now in favor throughout the ma
ton.
"And l think | know the sec
ret of it since | met the North
Dakota Press association, | doubt
if there is a little, narrow, Gimlet-
souled man among them. [ like
the bunch, and, if ever a strang-
er was made to feel welcome, |
was. The big state big souled
people are being developed by a
lot of big souled newspaper men,
graphing with their problems
and mastering them.
"Gentlemen Of the Press Asso-
citation, here's to you; to be
worthy Of your fellowship; to.
help develop this noble state

$50" is OH the hook, to finish my
s'take," I'd as soon leave it on
