A PLAN PROPOSED
To Represent Our State at the Worlds
Fair.
Special {'o~. STATE CHRoEICI,E.

Special fo~ STATE CHRONICLE.
The matter of a proper presenta-
ton of our State and her various in
dustries at the Worlds Fair is
question of more than passing mo-
ment to all our citizens. How to
raise money to make this presenta-
tion is question which has not yet
ceased to agitate the public mind,
despite the fact that an exhibit of
some kind has been promised by
the department of agriculture.
North Carolina is a State great
in 'esources and deserves more than
merely small exhibit at this
greatest of fairs. Her patriotic
sons and daughters desire to see
among the speci.l State buildings
to be erected in Chicago one over
which shall fly the flag Of the
"Old North State" and one to
which they can pilot their friends
with feelings of qualification and
pride.
But the money-'there's the
rub"-for although l have seen va
rious plans for obtaining it spoken
of in your columns, no one plan
seems as yet to have been adopted.
In conversation about this matter
with Hon. j. A. Long, Person
county's able and progressive ex.
Senator, NJ. Long outlined a plan
which is simple, and yet will, il
properly pushed, carry US on to
success. His plan is to have Gov
Holt invite three representative
men from each county in Nortf
Carolina to act in concert in an eff
. fort to raise THREE HUNDRED DOL
LARS FROM EACH COUNTY to be ap
piled to our exhibit IL
Chicago, and then each count,
> committee thus appointed to nam'
one of its members as a delegate t,
convention to be held in Raleicl
to arrange for the proper applica
tion of nearly thirty thousand dol
lars which could thns very easil
be raised. In case it was found in
expedient to have this conventio
then Gov. Holt could be empowere
to appoint any committee necessar
, to the carrying out of the design
