and thii process of preparing the dainty
white decoration was viewed with great In
terest.
IJy the tlmo the circuit of thin part of the
grounds was undo tlio visitors were
thoroughly Impressed with the magnitude of
'the plan and the great extent of territory
covered .by . this tract alone. They were loud
in their pralser o.f the lirauty of the nrranojo-
.ment anil the magnlflecnt scale on which Uio
whole was being carried out. The beauty
of design of the buildings and the Impressive
cnscmblo were freely commented on and tlio
innst pessimistic were convinced iby the mag
nitude of the undertaking nml the advanced
stage which had been reached.
TOUCHES TIIKIIl PRIDE.
From the .main . court the party .passed to
the bluff tract , where the state buildings ,
the Horticulture building , the Power build
ing and other smaller buildings were seen
In courao o ( construction. The Imposing ap-
licaruiico of the Illinois and Nebraska
buildings seemed to niako quite an Impres
sion on the lowans and when the situ so-
lerto'l by the lowu commluslon for the Iowa
ibulldlng was pointed out. In close Juxtapo
sition U > the Illinois and Nebraska buildings ,
the argument of. the Iowa commissioners
against a niggardly appropriation and a
smnll stnto .building . Boomed to strike homo.
While tliu party was In this portion of the
grounds a largo delegation from Council
llluffs made Its appearance 'and ' the members
quickly distributed themselves among the
ligUlatura from their state and added their
logical reasoning to the strong ocular evi
dence bi fore the eyes of the solons.
After the ground ? had hern thoroughly In-
Bported the party returned to the Mlllard
Jiat.'l.
The Hp.iclous main dining room of the Mll
lard was prepared for the largo party In a
manner appropriate to the Importance of the
occasion and the slzo of the gathering. Four
Jong tables extended the full length of the
room and at the west end a shorter table
extended at right angles to these. The la-
Ides were prettily decorated with s mllax ana
carnations and dainty festoons of smllax
were suspended from the numerous chan-
dollers. Plates wore laid for 225 gucstu and

of the party.
DISCUSSING THE PIIOJCCT.
]
After the cigars were lighted President
Wattles extended to 'the visitors , on behalf
! _ of the exposition management , a hearty wel-
j como to the city and to the exposition. "Tho
; exposition grounds are yours as well as
I ours , " said the president ; "this great onter-
I j prise was conceived iby delegates from all
the transmlsslsslppi states and territories as.
Bombled In the Trnnsmleslsslppl Commercial
congress. One of the principal objects of ths
j exposition Is ( o advertise the resources ot
i these western states and show to the. world
| the llmltlos-s wealth within our borders. We
I are glad to have you here to rovlew the work
i that has 'been ' done and see fc.r . yourselves
I Just what wo are doing and what kind of an
exposition wo aro'preparing In order to carry
out the responsibility which wan placed upon
us by the progenitors of thi ? great enter
prise. " The president then told 'briefly ' of
what Omaha and Nebraska has done to put
this project on Its feet , the citizens of
Omaha contributing $500,000 , the clty.through
I Its Park Hoard , expending $30,000 on tlio
exposition grotni'd ' , the otninty of Douglas
I voting $100.000 In aid of the exposition and
i the state of Nebraska appropriating $100,000
I for the same 'purpcao.
j Governor Holcomb was called upon nnd
1 made n brief speech of welcome to the vis
itors from Iowa. The governor was greeted
with applause as he rose and ho delivered
a pleasing talk In a strain which met with
warm approval from the visitors. In clcs-
Ing ho expressed the hope that this occasion
would be but the first of many slmll-- In
terchanges of courtwy between the people
of Iowa and Nebraska , and he predicted
that the exposition will bo a complete and
glorious success In which hu hoped the people
ple of Iowa will participate.
Governor Shaw of Iowa responded on be-
half of the visitors , expressing the appre
ciation of the lowans for their courteous
treatment and declaring that he Is a small
man who cannot overlook state lines and
Join In a grand movement for the benefit of
the common Interest.
JOHN N. HAUUWIN'S SENTIMENT.
J. N , Daldwln of Council Bluffs responded
to the sentiment , "Tho State of lowu. " Ho
poke of the conditions obtaining In the state
regarding Illiteracy and the magnitude of
the products of the utatn in agriculture and
kindred pursuits. Referring to the exposi
tion , ho declared that the Htate should cither
make a creditable showing or none at all.
He said Iowa baa more at stake In this
matter than any other state and ho asserted
with great emphasis that the exposition Is
not an Omaha show , as It Is too big for
Omaha or Nebraska , but belongs to half
of this great union. Hn Insisted that Iowa
should be In the lead and should do nothing
of which Its citizens might afterwards bo
ashamed.
After the malu chorus had sung "The
Song of Iowa" Senator F. 0. Blllson of Ana-
inosa told about "Tho Impressions of a
Visitor. " He upoko first ot his surprise at
tlm development of Omaha with Its many
works of Internal Improvement and handsome -
some residences and said when ho entered
tlm exposition ground * he felt proud of
Omaha and admired the grit and thrift
which could get up such a magnificent
allowing In the face of the depression which
had prevailed In the lest ffliv years. He pre
dicted that hundrrdo of thousands of people
will visit the exposition from all parts of
the world. auJ. ho axorviied hit

thu people of Omaha and Nebraska. Ho

AS AN ADVERTISING MEDIUM.
Manager Rosewater of the Department of
Publicity and Promotion was called upon
by President Wattles to tell about the ex
position as an advertising medium of the
transmlfsisslppl states .ind territories. Ho
averted that the exposition Is a much
greater affair them any Iowa man believes
It to be. There will be .fully . forty states
represented when the gates are opened a.id :
twenty-two statw now have commissions
ippolnted nnd working , while othcra are
preparing to follow tholr example.
"The task of promoting this exposition , "
said Mr , Rosewater , "has been much
greater than the e > ime work la connection
with the World's fair. That exposition had
over $20.000,000 back of It and every state
in the union was straining every nerve to
bo represented at that show. Wo have to
send agent. ? to these other states and tell
them what we are doing ccul urge them lo
come. Chicago dlfio't have to invite the
governor and members of the legislature of
Iowa to come nnd co what they had. Every
body In the states outside of Nebraska under
rates this exposition. They think all they
will ace here will he hogs and cattle and
great crowds of people. Instead of thla we
will have elaborate and extensive exhibits
from the cotton states of the smith , the
Pacific coast states- the states of New Eng
land , New York , New Jersey , Peninsylvanla.
Georgia , Alabama and several other state.1
outside of the transmUdlsslppI region , In ad
dition to iignrly every state and territory
wcst of the great Father of Waters.
IOWA'S DIRECT OPPORTUNITY.
"Nine-tenths of the people who will vlult
the exposition will crcsj Iowa. Thosn from
the west will go further cast after they
reach Omaha anJ your state will derive great
benefit from this great traffic across your
fertile districts. There are mllllrna of
people In the cast nho have never been west
of Chicago who will como to this exposi
tion and the people of Iowa will have an
opportunity for dlsp'aying to thorn the fer
tile llclds and the mlHIonn of cattle- and
hogs grazing on their ranges , aa well as
the thriving cities and the great manu
facturing Industries which have sprung up
all over the state. The exposition will turn
the great tide of Immigration to the \vi\n
and the labor of making It a nuccc. = v ) will beef
of vast Import for ftiluro generations. If I
thought this was only n local show I would
My 'don't ' vote a dollar , ' but If you believe
you will bo nromotlmr the nroeross of th'.s
country and ot your own state , I believe
you should vote what you think best. "
J. L. Webster closed the program with a
short talk In hlo usual fluUhcd and eloquent
rcanner which pleased the visitors and sent
them out of the banquet hall In the best of
humor.
The special train of the delegation was
held until 5:4S : p. m. , end the great majority
of the party hastened to catch this. A few

at length , selecting the. . Transmlsslrslrol Kx-
positlon for n subject. He had several con

cisco , who are also the lessees of the scal
ing privileges of the t'nltcd States al the
Prlbyloff Islands , Alaska.
Mr. Phillips I * wi his way to Montreal to
purchase from $300,000 to $ .100.000 of general
merchandise for supply stations on the
Canadian side. These goods go to San
Francisco In bond and are shipped on their
vessels direct to Dawson City , thus avoiding
duty payments. The company will have
four statlctis In Canadian territory and three
on the American side. All supplies for the
latter will bo bought In the United States.
Some l rgo contractu for meats and lard
have been let. The Llpton company of Chicago

on lard and hams. Mr. Phtll'ps will return
to Chicago and Omaha to close further or
ders for provisions , ono Item being 10,000
eopcs of ratimed meats.
Mr. Phillips says that Omaha has superior
advantages for supplying the greater portion
of the Immense quantities of food that will
bo required for the Alaska trade
and expressed himself most favornbly upon
the activity of Omaha business men. "Tho
excitement and movement toward Al.isKa
are general all over the world. We are In
receipt of cablegrams dally from Louden
and Australia making passenger reserva
tions and the number of people going will
bo fixed only by the facilities for transport
ing them. Our averts In Alaska send us
reports which substantlato all that has bci-n
said relative to the richness of the diggings
and Indlc.itlng that the discoveries thus far
are but tlio commencement of what the
next year will develop.
"Our company is going Into the business
of transportation of passengers and freight ,
banking , merchandising , etc. , on a largo
and substantial scale. The outlay for ves
sels , supplies , etc. . will be In the neighbor
hood of $2,000.000 before any returns come
back. Wo have Investigated the conditions
and capabilities of what can be done ami
feel sure the developments and business
will be permanent and growing larger from
year to year. "
