THE SILVER LINING

Last week at the annual fat-stock show in
Grccnbrier County, West Virginia, the short-horn
yearling bull calf Grover c. was awarded the
first premium. special to Western exchange
tells OF a farmer named Sterrct, living near Lone
Mound, Minnesota, who has a siX-weells-old bull
calf which stocilmcn pronounce the largest and
heaviest Of any calf of its age record. The
dispatch concludes with the statement that the
prodigy is named Grover Cleveland. We see by
an agricultural paper that on one of the large
Ohio blooded-stocl1 farms there are promising bull
calves named Grover !, Grover II and Grover Ill
1t is an indisputable fact that the present Admin
istration has been more successful at furnishing
names for big bull calves than any since the found
ing Of the Republic.
1t must be very pleasant for Mr.. Cleveland to
know that he is thus being honored all over the
country Amid the worry and care of official life
this must come 10 him like green spot in the des-
ert. Oihce-seekers may lmpOrtune him,
false friends may crowd around him,
official duties multiply, perpleXing diplomatic
questions arise, severe social duties press upon
him, campaign calumnies spring up on every hand:
but still there comes to him like the cool drop TO
the parched tongue the fact that New lamp
shire farmer has named bouncing bull calf after
him.
Work and worry may bear him down, the bit
terness of disappointment may be his, even sick
ness may press upon him, and his whole sky may
become dark and forbiddng, but through it there
ever shines this special telegram, like star:
" A bull calf in Saunders Co., Nebraska, weg Ching
45O pounds, has been named Grover Cleveland
After days hard work writing messages,
meeting begging ofice-seelIcrs, listening 10 ambi-
tous politicians, carefully weighing scores OF
public questions, lodging correspondents and veto

his couch, tired dspirted, discouraged, there still
comes 70 him, as his weary head touches the pill

An EXPOSITION At VASHINGTO

The project for an exposition in commemora-
ton Of the four hundrcdth anniversary Of the
discovery Of America has been favorably acted
upon by the House Committee on Foreign
Affairs. The recommendations of the Board
of Promotion, recruited from all the States and
Territories, and many boards of trade and COM
merca organizations have been followed, and
Washington has been selected as the most APP
proprate site for the exposition. A bill now
before Congress provides permanent scheme
Of organization. A Government board of nine
directors, appointed by the President, will be
authorized TO prepare general plan for the
proposed exposition. An advisory board Of
sixty-two members representing fony-six
States and Territories and sixteen independent
American nations, will cooperate with the
directors. The Government reservation in the
reclaimed ground Of the Potomac Flats at
Washington is to be assigned for the projected
exposition buildings. One of these will be used
for a permanent exhibit Of the history, re-
sources, arts and industries Of the United
States Another will be devoted to the an
tiquities and industries Of Brazil Canada, the
fifteen Spanish Republics and small
er States and Colonies. a site will also be
reserved for a statue of Columbus. These are
the chief recommendations Of the House Com
mittee The promoters of the scheme, how
ever, favor several other buildings, including
one for working models of American inven-
tons, another for temporary exhibits, and also
a museum. A geological garden is also con
templated.
Spain, Italy and various South American
countries have already considered the exped-
ency Of commemorating this momentous event
in the worlds history. Spain has decided to
celebrate at home the discoveries of Columbus,
but has also expressed through its Government
hearty desire to take part in more formal
ceremonies on American soil. Washington
seems 20 be the most appropriate site for an
exposition devoted to the resources and indus
tries Of North, South and Central America
AS the Worlds Fair will occur next year in
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1888-07-03

Paris, there will be IN interval OF three years
before the American festival, and there viii
be no rival worlds fair at that time. There Is
no reason to doubt that under proper manage
ment the proposed exposition at Washington
would attract as much attention and interest
as the Centennial Exhibition, although the
Potomac Flats cannot be compared for pictur
esque beauty with Paramount Park as site,
and the Washington climate is less favorable
than that of Philadelphia. The exhibition OF
1876 gave Americans a great reputation for
talent in organizing and managing worlds
fair. II an exposition of similar magnitude
be attempted in 1892 the general plan cannot
be matured too speedily. All the States and
Territories will have to act upon it, and IN
vitations will have to be sent to the Govern
ments of the American Continent. The trus-
tees ought to be appointed this year, if any
measures are to be taken Ly which the United
States will take the initiative in celebrating
the arrival of Columbus in the New World.
The proposed exposition would have bene-
fetal influence in bringing the United States
into closer relations with the South American
States, whose commerce and trade are eagerly
sought after by every maritime nation i'll Eu
rope. 1t might be the means of facilitating
the establishment of steam transit between
New-York and the Southern Republics, the
restoration of the American flag to the seas,
and the development of continental traffic. 1t
would certainly add important industrial and
collections to those already ac-
cumulated at Washington, and would hasten
the complete conversion of the Potomac Flats
into pleasure ground worthy of the National
Capital.
