"Michigan, My Michigan."
It is so seldom the average busy-
newspaper man finds time to dismount
from the editorial tripod, throw down
his faber and hie himself away from
his den, that when they do get an outing they know how to appreciate it,
and enjoy it for all there is in it. Such
proved to bo the case on the occasion
refered to in the heading of this article, and thinking the Observer readers might be interested in knowing
how the two hundred or more editors
conducted themselves upon being
turned loose upon a suffering public,
we will attempt to briefly give an account of ourself during our eight days
trip with them.
The object of the Michigan Press
association to further the interests of
its members by meeting once a year,
discuss matters pertaining to the profession, exchange ideas and have a
good time—especially the lattpr.
The program this year was an unusually elaborate one embracing a
series of excursions in addition to the
regular annual meeting, with its banquets and usual festivities. The trip
selected by the architest of these columns was to the "Soo" and return.
Saginaw  was   the    centre   toward
which all the editors were headed.   We
reached'there on Wednesday morning,
July 16th, and proceeded to headquarters where we were furnished with the
press badge which afterwards proved a
pass-port    for    numerous    privileges.
Among the throng we found a number of
familiar faces, among them, Matt Blos-
ser, of the Manchester Enterprise:  C.
P. Field, ofthe Teeumseh .News: Willard Stearns, of the Adrian Press;  E.
A. Beal, of the Ann Arbor Courier;
Smith, of the Milan Leader; and others.
A glance at the printed program at
once showed that the people of Saginaw
had a picnic in store for their  guests
and intended to keep ns on the move
while there.   After dinner the citizens
opened their program by giving the
party a ride over the belt line railroad, which encircles the consolidated
Saginaws, the  distance  being   about
.eleven miles.    This line furnishes excellent shipping facilities for the numerous mills and factories, and also furnishes a desirable means of rapid transit to various parts of the city.   A stop
was made  at the   city  water works,
where we found two ponderous engines
with a pumping capacity of 80,000,000
gallons a day.   Following the belt line
trip was a ride on the electric railway
lines, in comfortable open cars, from
which a good view of the streets and
buildings   was obtained.     Saginaw is
leaving Detroit way in the background
so far as rapid transit is concerned and
she must soon discard the sleepy old
horse cars, or be put down as far behind
the times.   An exhibition of the city's
efficient   fire    department    was   next
given.   In the evening a reception and
banquet was given in honor of the 400
visiting  editors,   editor's   wives   and
daughters, at the elegant home of W.
R, Burt, the democratic nominee for
governor two years ago.    The affair
was a brilliant  success, no pains  or
money evidently being spared to make
it so.     For the   banquet  long tables
were spread under tents on the spacious
lawn.    The  Saginaw band enlivened
the occasion with music, and all ate,
drank and were  n_err3*   until  a- late
hour, when ears, in waiting conveyed
the throng to their respective hotels.
The   street   cars,   by the way,   .ve»:e
virtually owned by the gang during
their stay, as the sight of the yellow
badge was all that was necessary to
cause  the conductors on all lines to
quietly give you the "go-by."
The morning of the 17th dawned
bright and clear and the crowd seemed
in good spirits and ready for another
day's pullat Saginaw'shospitality. An
excursion to Bay City where we were
to be entertained by Congressman
Fisher was that day's program. At
the appointed hour a special train left
the depot of the Cincinnati, Saginaw
& Mackinaw By. where, by the way, we
met one of our. old Saline boys, Frod
Salsbury, who holds the lucrative position of general passenger and freight
agent of thatroad. "Tall oaks" etc. was
the adage which j.assed through onr
mind as we, sized up Fred's nearly 200
pounds of avoirdupois. He is one of
' the"get-there style of boys, aud hasn't
• yet reached his top" round.   But our
• train is waiting and we must hurry on.
. The conductor called all aboard, and
• we sped on toward Saginaw's rival city,
•Bay'City, stopping enrbute to inspect'
the workings of a mammoth saw mill
and salt block, where all were presented
with a miniature bunch of shingles as
a souvenir of the visit. Shortly before noon Bay City was reached and
the party at once marched to the new
palatial home of Congressman S. O.
Fisher, where the doors were, thrown
open and -the editorial party bid to
make themselves at home, and they
did. A reception was followed by an
elegant lunch, then came speeches by,
Mr. Fisher, president Powers, of the
association, and others. It was unanimously conceded that though some
might not agree with Mr. Fisher in a
political way, as a big-hearted man and
genial host he was 'way above par.
With three cheers and a tiger, the
party bid "Elm place" (the name Mr.
Mr. Fisher's home is known by) good
bye, and at his invitation filled thirteen
electric railway cars, which were to
convey us over his new electric road
to Wenona Beach, Bay City's new summer resort, six miles out, on the shore
of the bay. The trip was made in
about thirty minutes and then a short
business session of the association was
held in the pavilion, after which
those who wished were given a boat
ride on the bay, while others enjoyed
themselves about the grounds. Winona Beach is yet in a crude state having
only been opened as a summer resort
this spring, but it promises to become
one of the most pleasant resorts in the
valley. On our return a stop was made
at F.W.Wheeler & Co.'s ship yards,
which is one of the most complete
plants of the kind in the country. All
the latest machinery is used and anything from a little tug to the largest
steel ocean steamer is built. This firm
was the lowest bidder for the steel government cruiser, about which considerable newspaper comment has been
made as it is thought that it would be
in violation of a treaty to allow a government vessel to be built on inland
shores. It is hoped the moguls at
Washington may decide otherwise and
allow the ship to be built in Michigan.
Again boarding the cars we were soon
back to Saginaw, and after a hearty
supper all repaired to Germania hall,
where a business session was held. Interesting papers were read by Mr.
Stearns, of the Adrian Press; James
Schemerhorn, of the Hudson Gazette;
Geo. M. Dewey, of the Owosso Times;
and several others. These exercises
were followed by an open air concert in
the park, which was brilliantly illuminated and decorated for the occasion.
On Friday morning, the lSth, a carriage drive about the city was given
the entire party. Not far from one
hundred carriages were in the procession, and it gave all an opportunity to
see the growth and thrift of Saginaw.
Stops were made at the club house,
which is said to be the finest in the
state, and the party were liberally
served with refreshing drinks. The
Hoyt Library was also visited and received its full share of attention apd admiration. After the drive a business
session was held and officers of the association elected. In the afternoon
those interested in fast horses, accepted an invitation to attend the races.
In the evening occured the final event,
the annual banquet which was given at
Teutonia opera house. Covers] were
laid'for four hundred and fifty, five
long tables being used. In the center
was a mammoth pyramid of flowers,
while the house was decorated with
bunting, plants and flowers. It was a
sight long to be remembered. Toasts
and speeches helped make up the program aud 'twas not 'till the wee sina'
hours that the festivities ended. On
Saturday we bid Saginaw good bye.
everybody unanimous that the Michigan Press Association had been royally treated by the consolidated Saginaws, and the three days stay among
its hospitable people would ever bo
wrought with pleasant memories.
A special train over the Michigan
Central now took us toward Cheboygan.
Rapidly we sped on, passing through
j country that was good and some that
was not.   At West Branch "the little
German band" was at the   depot  to
greet us but the train barely storjped.
t A telegram had been  received that
! the good people of Grayling-wished the
party to stop   and   take  dinner with
j them.    The  invitation  was accepted
! and upon reaching that hospitable lit-
t tie city a band and a large number of
■ people met the hungry editors at the
. depot and all were escorted to the var-
i ious hotels and given a big dinner.
(Here   again   vie were agreeably sur-
■ prised to meet one of Our former citi-
! zens. Mr. Chas. Jackson, now treasurer
ot Crawford county. After dinner Mr.
; Jackson  kindly showed us about the
hustling litlle city, which though but
recently "out. of the woods"' has water
; works and electric lights,   The court
hous-- aud ischool building are large
j substantial structers, aud an air ef
I thrift jgvorywhoro prevailed, while for
the hospitality of its citizens every
member of the M. P. A. will vouch.
After a brief speech by the president
of the association, and three cheers for
Grayling, we resumed our journey toward Cheboygan, from whence w"e will
coutinue our trip with our readers next
week.
