“The Minneapolis Song” was published in 1903, word and music by “Monssini.”  Inside it says acc. by L.O. Shibley.  The chorus goes:

“Minneap’lis, of fair city of bright waters
Yet brighter, fairer be thy sons and daughters
Sailing gaily on thy lakes and laughing waters
Minneap’lis beautious city of the west”

Another 1903 song was the “Minnesota Street Rag,” composed by Fred Swanson. It was published by the American Music Publishing Co. in St. Paul.
