THE NORTHWEST AND THE SOUTH.

THE NORTHWEST AND THE SOUTH.
The Corn Palace this fall offers
4 grand opportunity for the north
west and tho south to get togeth-
er. In this respect the Sioux
City exposition is mos. timely
and fit.
There will be fit occasion in Ut
for common spirit of enterprise.
The ambition of the northwest, i,
the new, developing and prosper
Gus northwest, is to show to the
world its products, its opportun-
ties and ITS agricultural posslbili-
ties. The Corn Palace Is the
happy method of such exposition,
and it Is undoubtedly the most
unique and appropriate method
for displaying agricultural prod
ucts ever devised 1t las SO M
pressed the world, and it has be-
come an exposition of far more
than local interest. 80 happy
was the very first attempt TO show
forth the agricultural northwest
IN the artistic beauties of the Corn
Palace that it commanded alten-
tlon far and wide, and certainly
in the linlshed form and enlarged
magnitude which it will take this
year it Will be on of the events OF
popular interest all ovcrthe union.
This fact, the fact that unnum-
bered thousands from every state
between the oceans Will VISIT the
Corn Palace, thus suggests the op-
portuuity Of the south to get the
benefits of such an attraction.
The south, too, ls an agricultural
region, ambitious like the north
west to demonstrate It's resources
to the world and to secure the
benefits which such Il showing sc
cures. And with new life
which is stirring IN the Scuth we'll
may its people be proud to show
the agricultural wealth which IN
dustly IS producing IN It's fields.
There are dozen states in the
south that arc capable of making
at Sioux City this fail, alongside
the display of northwestern prod
ucts, such an exposition OF south
ern resources as the south has
never made before. Such an ex-
hlbItion would be one Of the chief
attractions of the Com Palace, an
attraction that would enhance the
deep interest that is already ex-
cited in the mind of the public
generally 1t would give com
pleteness to the effect o the
whole. 1t would suggest to all
visitors the mutuallty of interests
which exists as to the northwest
and the south. The south is al
ready one of the best markets for
the food products of the north
west, the products of which corn
is the basis, while on the other
hand the new northwest must re-
main one of the best patrons Of
the fruit grower Of the south. Be-
tween no two classes in this union
should there be better acquaint-
ance than between the corn grow
er of the northwest and the cotton
grower of the south. And there
is a similar ground for mutual ad-
vantage in the wordel full mineral
resources to which the south is now
addressing its energies.
Sioux City has prepared the
opportunity of better acquaint-
ance In the great Corn Palace ex.
position. The northwest watts
to meet the south at Sioux CITY
this fall, in the pleasantest season
of the year. Sioux City wants
the people of the south not only
to send the products of their soil
and the abounding fruits of their
toll, but also to come themselves.
The southern people are famous
for their hospitality and Sioux
City, for the northwest, will be
glad to have its spirit put to the
test by those who know a kindly
welcome and sincere entertain
ment.
we want the south with us this
fall, 10 friendly emulation, 10 So
ciaI interchange and in mutual in
