At the foot of a busy street, high bulks of wholesale houses surrounding them, two men will head the reception for 500 veterans of the Great Northern railway meeting here in convention — the same two men who 40 years ago Saturday, hunting deer, met the surveying party working well ahead of the advancing steel rails of “Jim Hill.”
