Milwaxtkke, Oct 7. -When. the
President and party returned from
their drive to the Soldiers' Rome this
morning, where a salute was fired in
his honor, he was taken to the north
western depot, where a large and
cheering crowd had assembled to bid
good by to Milwaukee's distinguished
guest. Very few minutes were lost
in starting the special train after the
President and Mrs. Cleveland had
boarded it. Amid waving hats and
handkerchiefs the President's train
pulled out fat 10:24, for Madison,

Madison,. Wis., Oct. 7. The Pres-
idential party arrived here at 1 o'clock
and was received, by a salute of 21
guns and ten thousand people. The
line of march was readily formed
and the pre-arranged parade 'pro
ceeded. The President and t Mrs.
Cleveland were in the most gracious
mood and smiled frequently and
tcood naturally on the enthusiastic
multitude. In the procession were
many of the most distinguished citi
zens of Wisoonsin.. It was after 2
o'clock when the procession reached
the ease front of the Capitol, where
on the platform erected on the por
tico, a formal welcome was rendered.
1 he park was crowded to the fence.
three hundred feet distant, with' a
solid mass of. humanity, from
which frequenly thunderous
cheers would; break forth. The
formal address of welcome was made
by Chief Justice Erasmus Cole of the
State Supreme bench. . , The address
was mos scholarly and warm in its
welcome and was enthusiastically re
ceived.
' The PMaMMfsBcply.
"After a week spent in travel and
visiting tbe people of the great west
we have ame to rest awhile at the
capital of Wisconsin known as the
most beautilul in location and seen
ery of all the cities of the region. We
have come to see your lakes and the
otuer features of beauty that give
you the reputation so well deserved.
You are not to understand that we
need and desire rest that we do not
care to see the good people of Madi
son for .that would be a mistake.
Though we see them at their . home
ior the first time they are not un
known to us. We know you at the
seat of the , National Government
through j our fellow-townsmau who
hs done honor to his home and to
his neighbors by a most, successful
and conscientious performance o'
important public duties and who
has earned, as he has received the re
spect and esteem of every citizen
who desires the welfare of his coun
try, so our desire to actually see you
and to know you better is perfectly
natural It seemed to me, when I
planned the trip which we haveun
dertaken, that Mad son would be a
proper place at which to make our
first stop for. rest. I have always
observed V at when a man wants to
do something of this kind he can
quite readily find a way to justify it.
So when I conceived the idea of stay
ing at Madison ovt r Sunday and test
ing the kindness of her citizens and
the hospitality of -the Postmaster
General, all I had to do was to im
agine that we would be very much
tatigued when we reached here and
in need of the restl was determined
we should have. Thus we are here,
and tired enough to justify my plans.
I am already satisfied that all de
scriptions of your city, with which I
have been favored," have failed to
give me an adequate idea of its beau
ty," of its broad and pleasant streets,
and of , its fine - public" and private
buildings . I am, already prepared to
venture the assertion based' upon
very slight observation , that . this is
the home of kind hearted and hospi
table, people.; The influence upon
such a community of such a Univer
sity as has its seat here, the Alma
Mater of hundreds of educated and
useful men scattered throughout
our entire Western "country , is great '
er than is at a first glance apprecia
ted. It fosters a certain refinement
and cultivation which radiates to all
the bonds within 4ts sphere, vastly
enhancing their value as miseries of
steady and intelligent citizens, v
I expect to heartily enjoy my , stay
here, and to always cher sb pleasing
recollections of your city and its
inhabitants." '

eurated in the rotunda of the Capi

honor o Ex Governor Alex. B. Shep

hearty bvation ever accorded a5pri

was a large military and civic pro

display of pyrotechnics 'along the

ed near the Capitol at 8 o'clock last
night and marched about three miles
through the principal streets and av
enues. I A beautiful night. The pop

along the line of march perhaps never

the reception committee from Bleak
House, inis country home. and. with
a hundred prominent 'citizens, occu
pied the reviewing stand at the cor

passed the reviewing stand the crowd
which completely blocked the street
f r a square ,or more in either side,
clamored for a speech and Mr. Shep
herd, in! a fe w words, neat! v ackriowl

I The outlook in mining enterprises
-was never more favorable- than at
present5 There are' hints of foul
dealmg which mars the whole, and
in certain quarters engenders mk
trust, but these aside, and the - pros
pect brightens. " In the eastern
placer fields' there is activity which
promises good returns. These re
marks apply to the region surround
ing the old Portis mine. - The par
ticulars of thus important work will
be riven the public in . due season.
In the Blue Wing region there is no
particular work. , being conducted,
but the mine owners are in good
spirits patiently waiting the advent
of the "Iron Horse"; which is head
ing that wayThey " ''are confident of
tne result, $ ana nave unoounoea
faith in the superiority of their cop
per mines. In Guilford county the
Fisher Hill is active and is produc
ing regularly son a paying basis:
it is one of the best mines in the
State, so claimed by those who know
it hesL In Bandolph county but
little i9 . being done. In Davidson
the Mlver VaUey people are making
a brave start; they nave, done a
great deal of preliminary ' work .and
are just getting the machinery into
working shape. In Stanly the Con
cord fold CroweM is f active. ; with
what results the writer ts amtormed :
the Stanly Freehold is doing a large
amount of preliminary work and
employ a large force of hands. In
Montgomery tbe largest activity ex
istsjthaig Buseell is said to be
Drcducing fauivt tbey have a full
equipment of machinery and are
working alow gradexre with profit:
the same may be said oi tne Apaia-
Chan mme. . This property is highly
spoken of and seems tu be conducted
with a view to permanent worr ana
ultimate success. The old Steel.
now Genessee, is at work with a
large force of hands and. they-' are
said to be producing largely. The
8am Christian recently sold to Eng
lish capitalists wilLoe started up at an
early day, in fact, as soon as the
new superintendent can reacn tne
property and take charge There are
other operations in that county but
of less note, m Moore county mere
are two or three mines being opera
ted in a quiet way, and generally in
a preparatory way. In Cabarrus tbe
rcoenix : is going steaauy, on a
pavitig basis, and has been so run
ning for several years; other explor
ation worx is oeing conuuetea mere.
In Mecklenburg not so much is being
accomplished, yet mining is in a
healthy condition there, ana so in
Union, Lincoln. Gaston, McDowell,
and other counties of the western
Ert of the State. . This sketch would
too long to go into particulars of
these operations m eich county in
the State; but enough - has ' been
pointed out to show that there is a
wider and more general activity va
mining affairs in North Carolina
than there has been for some time in
the past. Strange to say it is not in
the same counties that five years ago
were on a boom, so to speak, but is
now conducted in places that were
quiet then. Just what the signifi
cance oi una conaiuon is, is ksi w
the reader to unraveL But the main
fact of greater activity is proven and
it is with pleasure-that it is noted;
it means that there is a steady and
persistent growth in the industry
and that we are now on the road to
build up a constant and we hope , re
munerative mining businesss in ' the
State. In this, however, there must
be a care that it is done on a. legiti
mate basis and on business pnnci
pies. As much aa poss ble separa
ted from the reckless and unprinci
pled wild schemes which only tend
to destroy confidence in the long run.

Carlton and John ; A. ;. McCAermand,
the minority of the Utah Commis
sioners, have submitted their report
to the Secretary of the Interior. This
action is taken, as they state, be
cause of their disagreement with the
majority report, particularly, as re
gards its general animus and tone,
the propriety of introducing the olog-
ical discussions into a secular docu
ment. In support .of .the view the
report quotes Madison as faying that
"religion is the 4 duty 1 we "owe tbe
Creator is not within the province
of civil government " ChurcEs and
creeds, says the report, are subject
to the laws of religion, and Mormon
ism must yield to the inexorable logic
of civilization. Polygamous mar
riages are becoming less frequent.
No polygamous . voter holds
office or aits on; a jury.
Continuing the report says that con
sidering these facts and the impor
tance of continuing the power of
Congress over the subject of polyga
my and of religion, the. power from
any question they recommend the
adoption of an . amendment to the
constitution prohibiting the lnstitu
tion or the practice of polygamy in
any form m the states or Territories,
or other place over which the United

rangements are going forward for
the proper reception of the President
here on his visit on the 31st inst.
The committee on arrangemente,
appointed at the recent meeting of
the iioard ot Trade and citizens, win
meet to-morrow evening to perfect
the details of the reception. It is
settled, however, the Presidential
party will drive through tbe prmci-
pil streets, and see some of the most
convenient and accessible r views in
the city limits. Excursion ! rates
will be made by the railroad authori
ties, as the Citizen is informed, and
large crowds are expected from all
directions. The fare will be only one
cent a mile each way from Salisbury,
trom faint Hock, Irom ubanotte,
K CL, and" from Spartanburg, 8. C
From the interested little vifiiage of
Spartanburg it ts hoped many . will
come to see the. Chief -Executive of
the United States, and that the
people may see the city and her citi
zens, and form more favorable im
pressions than is sometimes gotten
trom the columns of their local press!
it is said that Hon. jonn nichois
wdl resign his place aa Secretary of
the State Fair Association: If such
is the case the direction of that in
stitution could not find a more
worthy .successor' for this position
than John A Williams, Esqr of this
city. Mr.. .Williams has been' for
some time editor of the Live Stock
Journal-ol this place, and. is one of
tbe most conspicuous live stock own-1
ers in the State. This gentleman
formerly a resident of Fayetteville,
is well, and , favorably . known
throughout . the commonwealth. A
business man ox parts, a gentleman
of culture and education, a popular
and progressive citizen. Mr. - Wil
liams would be eminently suitable
for the vacancy.;
i Mr. iLarnest bhober who has
latelytbeen appointed to the position
of passenger agent for the Richmond
and Danville road. with headauar-
ters at Charlottertis well . known here
where no ,has anany friends. . His
geniality , and., talents have awaken
ed here, sincere wishes for his ruture,
and it is certain that for capability
and business traits tne railroad au
thoriues make no mistake in his pro
motion.
