The lsdiea ms usual, God bless them, are

| exhibition at New Orleans. The following
account OF a meeting o. Houston, taken
from the Post should inspire all true
women in the state 20 emulate tho example
OF the good ladies Of that city. The ladies

There is no occasion to Nalt for Mrs.

The Dallas HERALD suggests and we
second the suggestion, that the ladies' In the
seversl cities and towns OF Texas st once
organize themselves into New Orleans
Worlds Exposition aOCieties, to collect ex-
| hibits OF all kinds Of womsn's work, for
next winter. Let Texas female talent

will elapse before this great fair occurs,
/ there will not be more than ample time to
make an exhibition Of the resources OF our
. great state which W II reflect credit upon us

O! the state, which has done more than all
t!ge 20 make Texas what she is to-day, has
WORK before u, which We know will be
cheeriuly done. All sections of the state
are interested IN the matter for whatever
benefits one portion benehts the whole.
One OF our contemporaries sayt; All the
papers ia the state will boom the New Or
leans exposition. Texas, the largest state
iu the Union, has been assigned the LARGEST
space and will II 10 Gccepiably, too. When
the visitors from the north and east zee the
corn, cotton, oats harley, coa!, stone,
minefHls, etc which Texas produces, ana
meet the able representatives Of our state,
they will oDen their eyes and 20 back with
tales OF wonder OF whgt they have seen,
For the good Of our grand empire state let
Us work in harmony in holding up the hands
10 the front at the exposition as the grand
est and richest ttate in the great galaxy OF
states.-[ d illas Mercury.
The Apeliene Reporter suggests that in
every county aud town In Texas. there
should be organized Worlds Exposition
society, for the iurtherance OF the object OF
the legislative set, to aid the com missioners
In the collection and preparation OF speci-
mems Of every product OF our soil specimens
of our minerals, woods and handy work,
Texas invented machinery, art, etc. This
is a good suggestion from our district COM
missioner aud should be acted upon. We
suggest that some Of our leading citizens
take steps 10 have society organized In Col
orado; let both ladies and gentlemen take
an interest in the matter and there will be
no danger Of failure. Now, in order that
this organization be effected ne soon as
possible, we suggest the citizens OF Colorado
City aud Mitchell county meet in the
opera.house in Colorado on Saturday, May
3lst, for the purpose Of organic alton, and
we further suggest and urge that the ladies
Of the city meet with and cooperate with
us In making Colorado City and Mitchell
county's department at the Worlds fair
grand success. At this meeting we will
have able speakers who will address the
meeting on the Importance Of the move.
DO not forget the time, but come one and
all and LEI us get TO work right In the be-
aiming. colorado Clipper.
