EAST AND WEST SIDES.
Fighting for the ExpOsitiOn--The
Former at Work.

Rumors yesterday that the people of the
west side were disposed to make one final
appeal to their pocket books before permit
ting the exposition to go over to the east
side, set the people of the latter division to
work in earnest to formulate their PROPOSE
ton. A meeting was held at the Cataract
engine house last night, and drew out a
large crowd of interested property holders.
Addresses were made by l.. s. Gillette and
others. and the points of the proposition,
already made public, were plainly laid
down. A great deal of enthusiasm was
manifested, when the statement was made
that it was now altogether probable that the
exposition must come to the east side. 1t
was decided to reduce the proposition to
writing, and committee for that purpose
was appointed.
The West side people are determined to
make one final effort to procure land on
that side of the river and if they are as gen
erous as the Eastsders they will do it. If
property holders and others interested can
raise 500, 600 they can buy all of block l
and the north half of block i'm Wilson.

3O0x400 feet. Block is offered by Camp
& Walker at $50, 600. Their original offer
was blocks and for $150,000, S25. 600 to
be taken in stocks this offer includes no
stock, but is largely on long time. The
north half of block s is owned principally
by the McNair estate and by Willis Baker
and can be had for $50, 900, also largely on
time, the people interested in the scheme
agreeing to take care of the few buildings
on the property. The cOnfguration of this
site is a hollow on the side toward the rail-
road and hill on the other side, it being
estimated that there is earth enough in the
bluff to fill the hole.
The site has already been presented the
exposition committee for its consideration.
