GRAND ARMY OF REPUBLIo

Opening September II, During Second
Week Of the Great Show, and Centinu-
ing Several Dsys-Ths Light Of . Life
Time.
1t has now been definitely decided
that the annual encampment Of the g.
A. r. will be held the second week Of
the Ohio centennial. at Columbus. in
the fall Of 1883. The encampment will
open Wednesday, September IL, and
continue several days. This will fol-
low tho encampment Of tho state mill
tia, whose camp will bs left for the use
of such - may prefer camp life. The
weather at this time Of the year ID al
ways pleasant and camp life will be de-
hghtful. As Ohio 10 in, tho center Of the
Union, and her capital city 90 easy of
access from railroads from every part Of
our country, the gathering Of the G. A.
r. will be the greatest In the history of
the order Columbus is preparing for
the assemblage OF the "boys in blue, I"
and NO matter how great the number
may be all will be comfortably enter
tanned. Reunions, such as the country
has - yet not known, willbe held at this
time and Ohio, whose grand military
record stands out 20 boldly on the pages
Of our history, will add new stars to her
crown by showing how her people can
care for those who, with her, fought our
oountry's battles and, with them,
gained our victories.

CITY OF COLUMBUS
Its Beautiful Location in the Center
Of the Third State Of
the Union.
No Other Place Is So Well Provided
With Excellent Railway
Facilities.
Its Splendid Hotels and Many Board
ing Houses.

The capital Of Ohio is situated in $50
longitude west and in north latitude 400,
upon a plateau, known in the early days
Of the country as the "bluffs on the east
bank of the Scioto river" Geograph-
ically it is nearly in the center of the
state, which fact, with its excellent To-
cation, had much to do with its selec-
ton as the site Of the Buckeye capital.
1t now contains-based on the census of
the Directury issued in the spring OF
1SS6-75, 900 Inhabitants. In proportion
to its size it enjoys the best railroad ia
cilities of any city in the West, and in
the distribution of its wealth is the sec
ond city in the Union. So rapid has
been its growth northward and eastward
in the last five years that the city in
closes a triangle between these two por-
tions. In this is situated the grounds of
the state board of agriculture. These
are of sufficient elevation to command
an excellent view of the city, and are
within ten minutes ride OF the business
portion. Columbus has excellent hotel
and clearinghouse accommodations for
all visitors, and its people are given to
cordial hospitality. Ample accommoda-
tions will be prepared for all who may
come.
Within one days journey of Colum-
bus live two-thirds of the people of the
United States. Within radius of 600
miles is the most productive area of the
Union. Such circle circumscribed
about Columbus not only holds much
the largest population OF any similar
circle in our Union, but also embraces
all the various productive belts deline-
ated on the census maps of productive
areas. Every section OF this circle is in
direct railroad communication with CO.
lumbus, from whose center radiate four
teen lines of railways, with all their
various branches, reaching in direct
lines every part of our Union. No other
center in America has such surround
ings, and is SO well provided with, rail-
way facilities.
Figures from the census reports of
1880 show that within half days jour
ney of Columbus--a three hundred mile
radius-are one-fourth the people OF the
United States. ii to these figures be
added the population of that part OF the
Northwest territory outside this circle
the aggregate is over fifteen millions.

MAMMOTH STOCK SHOW.
The Best Facilities in the way Of Build
ings, Stalls, Pens, Show and Speed
Rings, Grand Stand, Etc.

No exposition designed to portray the
progress of county, state or nation
can be complete without proper exhi-
bition OF all classes OF live stock, for in
no other direction has these been greater
improvement than in the live stock of
the country.
The centennial opening at Columbus
September 4, 1883, and continuing until
October 10, in addition to all the neces-
sary facilities for exhibiting and prop
erly representing history, science, art,
agriculture, mechanics, manufactures,
etc., has also the very best facilities in
the way of buildings, stalls, pens, show
rings, amphitheater, speed rings and
grand stands for full and proper exhi-
bition OF the different classes OF horses,
cattle, sheep, swine, poultry and pet
stock.
Exhibitions held in music halls, skat-
ing rinks and public buildings along the
crowded streets of city can only re-
suit in bazars, where the one main OBJ
ject is to sell goods and make money.
Every inducement is held out to the
people to attend such exhibitions, be-
cause to be profitable to the managers
anu 10 til0 PERSONS WnO pay largely lOT
the privilege OF selling goods and no.
tions to those who come, there must
necessarily be a large attendance. Live
stock can not be shown at such exhibit
tions, first because no such expositions
or bazars have the facilities, and second
because the show of live stock in all the
classes would not be in keeping with in
stitutions of this: kind, whose object is
simply to make money without regard
to educational features or the encour-
agement of improvement.
The Ohio centennial at Columbus has
only for its object the making Of grand
educational exposition that shall be full
and complete in all the departments,
including live stock, and properly and
intelligently, as the law contemplates,
represent the progress and improve
ment of the past century. The great
aim Of the board of directors will be to
accomplish this end and if success
should crown their efforts, and there 10
no doubt but that it will, the people at
large will be benefited, and the board
will have discharged the duties for
which it was called into existence.

THE GREAT HORSE SHOW.
Arrangements for the Largest and
Grandest Show in All Glasses Ever
Witnessed in This Country.

The horse department will be one of
the chief attractions of the centennial, for
in it will be properly classified every
variety and breed possible to be exhib-
tied, including thoroughbreds and the
speed classes.
On the grounds are already erected
twenty-four large horse barns, Of mod
ern design and architecture, and we'll
lighted and ventilated. These barns or
exhibition horse buildings have each an
eighteen stall capacity, thus affording
accommodation for nearly 500 head of
horses at one time. The exhibition of
horses will be in nclassifications by weeks,
running through about six weeks Of the
centennial, one week for each classifica-
ton. With this arrangement there can
be shown during six weeks 5000 head
of the very finest and best animals
bred.
The first week of the show will be as
signed to thoroughbred horses in their
class, from aged animals down to suck
ings or weanlings, and grand sweep
stakes for stations and get and mares
with toal by side. During the same
week will also occur the pioneer or nov-
city races, which will include special
races, slow races, running to harness
and hurdles.
The second week of the show is as
signed for the running races. A grand
field of attractions in this direction will
be provided, including dashes, heats,
handicaps, selling purses, hurdles and
various stakes. As the one great object
l.. Al 1f
the breeders stakes will be made prom
inent features.
The third week will be divided to the
draft classes, of which there will be one
of the most magnificent shows ever
seen. A distinct classification will be
made for each OF the breeds. French
draft, Percheron, Belgian, Clydesdale,
English Shire and the grades, and will
include aged animals down to sucklings
or weanlings. A grand sweepstake
will be given each class for stations and
get and mares with foal by side.
No grander sight can be imagined
then 400 to 500 full-blood draft horses
shown upon one occasion and paraded
in one ring.
During this week will also be ex-
hibited the ponies, the object being to
show the contrast between the very
smallest and very largest horses bred.
There will be special pony exhibitions
and driving contests.
The fourth week has been assigned To
| the trotting and pacing classes, the ex.
hibitions to take place on the park track
which is located in most pleasant and
desirable part Of the grounds in full
view of all the expedition buildings

ern conveniences, including a grand
stand, substantial and ornamental, with
seating capacity for thousands Of peo
pie.
Following these classes and during
the subsequent weeks will be exhibited
saddle horses, roadsters in class, stand
ard breds, matched teams, light harness
horses, and such special attractions "a
may be arranged for.
The interest in the horse department
will begin the opening week and con
tinue unabated until the closing day.

THE GREAT NORTHWEST.
Brief Outline Of Its History-How it
Was Reclaimed from the Red Man
Books to Read on the Subject.

As regards Ohio's history It can be
truly said that no state in our Union
presents 30 attractive, 30 instructive,
and 30 comprehensive . field. Omit
ting all reference to its prehistoric
period, more prolific Of material than
any other State, and Of its Indian
history, fully as interesting, Ohio's
history may be briefly outlined as fol-
lows:
The discovery and occupancy Of this
part of the West dates remotely to the
voyages of Jacques Cartier to Newfound-
land and the st. Lawrence river in 1884.
He then took possession of all the con-
tinent watered by this river and its
tributeries. The intrepid explorer,
Lasalle; was the first white man known
to have Visited any part of what is now
Ohio. His visit made in 1870 empha-
sized the French claim to this part
of America, and until the peace of l763,
between France and England, at the
close of the French and Indian war, all
Of North America north of the st. Law
renee river and the lakes, as we'll as the
Mississippi valley from the Allegheny to
the Rocky mountains, was claimed by
France.
England held the country but twenty
years. The treaty of peace in 1888, at
the close of the revolution, gave the
country to the United States.
During this long period, 24S years,
not permanent settlement of white
people was made in what is now Ohio.
None but travellers and adventurers Wis
tied or inhabited this vast country. 1t
remained for the sturdy Americans to
found settlement and nation here.
From that time the active history of
Ohio begins, and that is the history we
shall celebrate at Columbus, September
4 to October 10, 1888.
The history of Ohio and the North
west naturally divides itself into three
periods, viz, the French, the English
and the American. The English period
being so short-only twenty years-and
SO blended with that of the American,
it can be viewed in connection with the
latter, and but two divisions, the French
and the American, considered.
Works on the French period, 1884,
1868, 229 years: Parkman's works,
etc. Life OF Jean Nicolett, Bancroft's s
History, Taylor's History of Ohio.
