To the Senate and House of Represent
atives :
1 have tbe honor herewith to submit
the report of the Ceotenial Comminaion
ers, and to add a word in the way of
recommendation.
There have now been international ex
positions held by three of the great pow
ers of Europe. It seems fitting that the
one hundredth anniveraity of our inde
pendence should be marked by an event
that will display to the world the growth
and progress of a nation devoted to free
dom and tbe pursuit of fame, fortune,
and honors by the lowest citizen as well
as the highest. A failure in thh enter
prise would be dep!orble. Soccer can
be assured by arousing public opinion to
the importance of the occasion. To se
cure this end, in my judgment, Congres
sional legMation is neces-ary to inaVe
the exposition both national and inter
national. The benefits to be derived from
a successful intcrntinna) exposition arc
manifold. It will necc-sarly- be accom
panied by expenses beyond the receipt
of the expoMtion itoIf, but they will be
compensated for many fold by the cout
miugling of people from all tactions of
our own country, by bringing together
the people of different nationalities, by
bringing into juxtaposition for ready ex
amination our own and foreign skill and
progress in manufactures, agriculture,
art, stsmoe,'aod civilization. The selec
tion of the site for tbe exposition seems
to me appropriate, from the fact that
one hundred years befor the date fixed
for the exposition the Declaration of la
depenuenoe, which launched s ia the
gaiaxy or nations a.an ladepeuJeat peo
ple emanated from tbe same spot. We
have much is our varied climate, soil,
mineral products, aud skill of whieh
vaBtage can be takes by other MtiottUi
ties to their profit. Ia return, these wiM
bnag to our shores works of their skill,
aad familiarise oar people with them, to
the mutual advantage ot all parties Let

tennial Expestion. or suppress it in its
