The London Daily News Speaks FavOrably
of the Worlds Fair.
LONDON, Aug. 1.-The Daily News
in an article on the Colum bian exhibit
ion, says: Chicago, under the critical
eye of her rival, New York, must sue
ceed, for she can't afford to fail Mr.
Gladstone's remarkable letter points
out the Importance of the scheme.
There is no reason why he should not
live to see America freed from the
heaviest industrial fetters. That
change is now imminent, or political
signs have lost their ordinary signifi-
canoe. The fair will have the further
result of putting America in the rank
of first class powers Every intelligent
man must see that it is ludicrous that
she has often to wait her turn after
third rate powers in Europe. A mighty
fair will prove an attraction which few
will be able to resist. They will find
incompatible interests in Americas
energy and freshness, and in the
intense seriousness of youth and hope.
