The Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1890-1906, 1893-08-29


None Of the territories have done much
in the way of arranging for a set day, ex-
oept possibly Utah, and her day, Sept 8. is
necessarily the same as that of California.
as it was on Sept. Q, 1850 that President
Fillmore signed all those compromise bills
which made California state and fixed
the status and boundaries Of the territor
les. Utah had applied for admission "a a
state and has since applied many time
and oft, but though her population eD
ceeds that Of three adjacent states com
bined she i still knocking in vain Her
mineral exhibit, however, is splendid as
are those of all the mining regions and
when / want 10 be entertained without ef-
fort go to one of their paviiiCns IN the
Mines building aud sit down. The miner
al cabin from Sierra county, y. 81, is well
worth seeing as indeed are all the state
and territorial psvilions. New Mexico's
day Is Sept. 16, but there is 40 special pro-
gramme yet. The same may he said of
Montana's day, Sept 20: Nevada's, Sept.
IS. and North Dakota's. Oct. 10. The Off
cial programme says tha: Utah's day is
the anniversary Of that on which the Nor
mon pioneers entered Salt Lake valley,
which only shows that officials may be ig-
norant as we'll as other people. Brigham
Young and AZ ether pioneers first entered
the valley on July "a, ls47. as have heard
him say many a time.
Spes king Of the mining regions and the
many curiosIties in this building, there is
one set which have not yet made mp my
mind to acoept-that is, the story told
about them IL q claimed that they arc
the tools used by the Greeks 400 years
Y
years before Athens amounted u much.
Alongside o. them are some of the tools
used today aa1 II both are genuine inns:
say that the Greeks ara very unpsogres-
siye, for the difference as 20 convenience il
nos much. TIE exhibitor ssys the chief
difference IS thai the miners q today Use
bsss els instead q leather bags to carry
the ores IN the surface. But tie ancieu:
shafts and tunnels are stiI used and Ia
them they have found relics which. 70 they
ssy. are * tie aZe q Psriciss- ChErts.
