The story of this interesting but hitherto unpublished incident of the president's recent trip to St. Paul, where he addressed the ntennlal crowd on on ay, has j ust come to light. It happened shortly after the president special train had passed through Eau Claire, westward bound, when lack of water forced the train to stop at Knapp. Sam Tutrts, former postmaster of Knapp, present proprietor o f the leading eating house there, and always, as at present, a strict and faithful though rather lonely mem­ ber of the Democratic party, was at the station when the presiden1 tial train came to a stop. Sam , according to eye witnesses 1 of the incident, stepped up close, I but Coolidge was not to be seen . ' Sam told one of the party that he wanted to see the president and 1 was informed that Coolidge and his wife were eating their supper. That made no differene to Sam , who sent word to the president that he wanted to see him on the platform. So Coolidge left the ta­ ble and came c U, and sm1led gra­ ciously and acknowledged Sam's greeting as the latter addressed him as follows : 'I have lived here for over 6 5 years but have never seen a presi­ dent in my life. I am a Democrat and didn't v ote for you , but I like you just the same.

The crowd let out _a wild . cheer, however, when Mrs.­ Coolldge appeared at a window to wave a greeting.

The Preside'1.t closed the little black leather fold�:- that held his man uscript. _ There was i,,n instant hush and then , i I tell you, the rush and roar and crash of cheers that swept toward him and seemed to envelop him was like the roar o! the wind in an autumnal forest when the branches are bare and make a crashing sound as the wind sweeps past them. Their Calvin Coolidge had voiced their thought and hope and ideal for those 50,000-yes, it was n€arer 60,000 -sterling Americans of Norse extrac­ tion and they were vividly thanking hjm for it.

Everybody has marked that fact . . Even the troops of sophisticated cor­ respondents who are recording the day have been touched by it. Theodore Christianson, governor o.e ! Minnesota, seized· upon the fact and I made it the keynote of the ringing little speech in which he introduced the President to the throng at the state fair grounds, where the ceremonies and fetes of the current Norse-Ameri­ can centennial celebration are taking place. " I only utter the faith of your ' hearts and my heart," said the gov · ernor, " when I say that the people of Minnesota believe in Calvin Cool­ idge .

That was one of Calvin Coolidge's lovely phrases in his red letter day i;peech. That, he said, was of all stories the one that most interested llim, and he defined it as the story of " the so­ cLa.l backgrounds of our country."

The Ovation accorded the executive by approxi­ mately 250,000 people pleased him beyond measure . Only once before-in Boston in 1917, when Gen.

A Personal T riumph. The �oolidge invasion of the wheat belt was a persoµal triumph in two ways. J<� irst, he successfully dem,onstrated his popularity in that s:::ction of the country regarded as a • LaFollette strongh old and second he wiped out the odium of his only ether attempt to address the people of the twin cities. In 1922, Mr. Conlidge, then vice­ president visited Minnesota in be­ half of the re-election of Senator Frank B. Kellogg, competing with an exhausting heat and the prospect of a horse race, he was booed clown and never completed his speech. Y::: ::terday 60,000 people jammed the fair grounds and oblivious to a howl­ ing wind and intermittent rain, cheered the preside.nt to the echo throughol).t a 45, minute address. On hi!'! way to the -fair grounds, sixteen miles of streets ;were packed with flagwaving, enthusiastic citizens.

Bii.t Ms very presence is tak• en that he appreciates what was 1 done in the last campaign. On Sunday, the presi<lential train passed through Wisconsin, the only state carried by La Follette in the last campaign. There were no stops ;except for operation purposes. Even a proposed stop at Milwaukee was cancelled by the president himself, It is understood. Engines were changed some distance from Mil­ waukee. Senator Irvine L. Lenroot, of Wis ­ consin was among those who ac­ companied the president. It Is un­ derstood that he will be a candidate for re-election and that he wm have administration support. The President and Mrs.- Coolidge' spent the night and part of the forenoon in seclusion at the Kellogg home. There were no political con­ ferences to disturb him. It was only .his presence in La Follette territory that was of any significance. • THE PRESIDE"T'S SPEECH l By GEORGE E. DURNO. STATE FAIR G R O U N D S, :MINNEAPOLIS-ST.

Massed before the president as he· spoke were packed thousands ot citizens but one generation remov­ ed from those daring Norsemen who just one hundred years ago sailed into New York harbor and blazed a trail into the vast region west of the Mississippi and north of the Mistiouri. It wa-; to them, and to other more recently adopted sons from other sections of the old world-to their homely virtues and their staunch allegiance-that the President at­ tributed the rise of the United States to the greatest of powers. In their hands he placed the future of the nation, and he pleaded that oth­ er peoples of the world. follow them to a realization that only through fraternity and cooperation can come , universal unity, peace and pros­ perity.

It was ,poured out to him so generously and so honestly that he could not mis­ take its genuineness, and that his presence there pleased all who saw and heard him is certain. It is something to talk about to have a president -of the United States attend one's picnic, and it was something for the president to be in attend­ ance, so it was mutually a good ,thing. · And it is our guess that when the next campaign rolls around and the states are lining up for their favorite candidates, '' Cal" Coolidge's picture will be found on the banners of the Norsemen and of Minnesotans in general. It will be no surprise to have Magnus J-ohnson and his wife at the head of the column cheering for "Cal," because they know how their neighbors will be feeling about it, and the Johnsons were always keen politicians. � 's !<s!¥ t,M��r11 " ) � � ,• ;r. l ... - . ..·,;•·z'(Y l�. .,( ,J�",1!1�•)�t:i���I:' rd"' . iir1:,l/x�:tl\/r.dibii :-, l'Ol i - �L' ""' ., · , tfiat ne will be a can u1uU1,v the that and - President in 1928 ne p­ 240 0 mile journ ey to Min � Lhe for ,vas rn retu A olis and ,­ _,,: pose of puttil1g t1:,e pres idei1 pur ( t1 .:-_:--::= --tial fenc es in order m that par nt : side Pre The . ntry cou � _..,.. 1 of the ed by 10 \ -�-- was imm ense�y plea� h he . 1 ewlnc 1 pt101 rece ty hear - =,.'i;r"'· cially 1 espe ta, neso Min in d __ /4,'°'i"iJ: ceive 1 _ . ,.("' � in view of the fact that the last ,-, he time he was there befo re --··· ( mpt atte an in n dow d o\vle h was 'da to make a campaign spee ch.
