Baltimore shonld be able to build hand
some and commodious exposition building
without much drumming. The presentation
of the matter to her citizens by the press,
should be all that is required to induce a
prompt voluntary subscription sufficient to
erect the edifice without delay, if the public
spirit is commensurate with the wealth of the
city No argument is needed to convince an
intelligent people of the necessity of such a
building in q great city, such as Baltimore, if,
indeed, city can be called great which lacks
a convenience of this character.
