who might wish TO subscribe, which was
agreed 10.
Col. Philip was glad such a motion had
been made. He looked upon this meeting az
the formal beginning Of the enterprise, whicL
Will without doubt DO successfully carried
out. 40 4 - -
Judging from the men, funds, earnestness
and enthusiasm, there could be no sucb
word as fall. He believed tho project would
have the encouragement OF the seaboard
cities, which could not be said for any inland
city. There was an old proSerb: 'Provi.
dence helps those who help themselves" We
must do our duty as though the enterprise
was depending upon our own resources, and
the confidence We manifested would be pro-
portionately reciprocated by all the leading
cities OF the nation. Let Washington sub,
scribe literally and the exhibition would
certainly be success. As an evidence of
his good will he asked that his name be
added to the list for $1,000.
Mr.. A. T. Pardon said there were mapy
present who did not feel able to give a thou
sand nor five hundred dollars, but he hoped
at least $4,000 could DO raised by subscrip-
lions OF $3.50 each. He was ready to head
tho Hht lOf iuat amount.
Mr.. W. II. Heustis said he would certainly
subscribe according TO his means. All classes
were interested In holding the exhibition,
and all would contribute to the list, II they
properly appreciated the benefit II would be
to Washington.
Mr.. Simon Wolf, recorder Of deeds, said
be had reason for stating that the agitation
OF the question Of removing the capital had
affected transactions In real estate for m nths
past, and he looked upon the project, Of hold
Ing the fair as the best means OF wiping out
the record which had accumulated against
the city In the opinion Of outsiders. Tho
success OF the exhibition would silence the
topic OF removing the capital forever.
A committee, consisting Of Messrs. Shep.
herd, Wolf, Mohun, Davis, and Kilbourn,
was then appointed to canvass the hall for
subscriptions, and while they were doing
this, General o. o. Howard made patriotic
and eloquent speech, encouraging the CHI.
zens TO take hold OF the matter In earnest,
to deal with tbs subject 10 II deserved, and
the question Of the future Of Washington
would DO settled forever. As long as there
