Professor Barnett was the first and only
choice OF Director General Davis for the

right well has he 50 far justified the trust

ain have each asked fer and been allowed
80 90 square feet for national displays
while France will require probably about
half Rs much. Already the applications
for space aggregate nearly i00,00o feet
more than the actual flooring dimensions
OF the structure, and still the list is being
added 10. The hardest part of Professor

road from Phoenix to Prescott began to
be considered.
Last summer when Mr.. Henry
Il, Kemp was in tie east he was
told by Mr.. Huntington that the build
ing OF such road by his company was
only a question of time, but he could
not say when the time would come.
Knowing ones believe it is here now,
and predict that the Southern Pacific
will open communication between
Phoenix and the Atlantic aud Pacific
line before the Santa Fe, Prescott and
and Phoenix.
Its proposed route, via the Black
Canyon, is much more direct and offers
no greater obstacles to railroad building
than the more circuitous right of way
chosen by the S. z. * p. From Pres
colt north the line is already built.
The Bullock road is already in the
enterprise in self defense. Its useful
ness will be practically destroyed by the
santa Fe project and can be restored
only by conjunction in the counter
move of the Southern Pacific.
Whether or not both the prospective
roads would pay from the start is
question; it is indeed a question if only
