Col. Borders on the Kansas Exhibit.

BY special request of several thous-
and friends of the Tribune editor, we
reproduce the following description of
and comment on the Kansas exhibit at
the Worlds Fair, written by Col. Joe
Borders, and published in the Blade of
last week.
1.-The Kansas building is not so i'm
posip G nor does it present such mag
nificent appearance as the Illinois or
the California state buildings. 1t could
not be expected that 200 would
compete with states having a million
dollar appropriation; and yet 1 was
very much surprised and pleased to
find the Kansas state building
and the Kansas exhibits with the ex-
ceptions above named1 to be the best
on the ground. The Kansas commits
sioners and especially Cobun, Kern
and Mrs. Clark, are dong all in their
power to promote the interest of their
(our) state, and l feel confident that
the display will materially aid Kan
sas Our exhibits are a surprise to
everyone, and the Kansas building at
tracts more attention and is visited by
more people than any other state build
ing on the grounds-Illinois and Cali
fornia not excepted. The Kansan has
more surprises in store when he
reaches the Agricultural, the Horti-
cultural. the Manufacturers, the Mines
and Mining, the Woman's and Trans
portation buildings he will find that
his own state stands in the front rank.
Kansas is everywhere-fo in
everything. And / must not forget
the forestry building. where 1 saw the
largest walnut log in my experience
and it was from Kansas. 1t measured
"A feet in length and IS inches in di-
ameter, and was grown in Leaven-
| worth county, Kans. The average
daily attendance at the Kansas Duild-
ing for the week [ was there numbered
260. This number appears on the
register and has reference to Kansas
people only. Barton county is not
