tation at the Worlds fair. Commissioner
De Young, proprietor Of the San Francisco
caroaicle, having secured the appointment
as head of the exposition's horticultural
department for one Maxwell, Of Los An
geles, his paper takes the ground that in
view of that fact II would be unwise for
California to further contend for a sepa-
rate exhibit at Chicago.

tend that only q separate exhibit would be
OF any value to the state; that q distribu-

have appropriated $4,000 or anything
