REDUCED RAILROAD RATES. READ CAREFULLY. 



A reduction to one-third railroad fare for the return trip has been secured on con- 

 dition that one hundred certificates, showing that full fare has been paid coming to this 

 meeting, are presented to the railroad agent at Lake City. It is certain that 

 this reduction can be secured if each person attending obtains such a certificate 

 from the railroad agent at the time of purchasing the ticket. £)•• not fail also to get a 

 similar certificate at each transfer point where you liave to purchase a ticket on the 

 way to the meeting. For instance, a member from Rochester must buy a ticket from 

 Rochester to Red Wing, and again from Red Wing to Lake City ; get a certificate at 

 both Rochester and Red Wing. The certificate secured with the last ticket bought 

 before reaching Lake City is the most important and the only one that will count in 

 the required "one hundred." 



N. B.— On reaching Lake City turn tliese certificates over to Sec'y Latham at once- 

 All the railroads in the state south of Minneapolis, also the Great Northern and 

 the Northern Pacific railways, offer this reduced fare.
