California Exhibitors Who Won
Prizes at the Atlanta
Fair.
Gratifying Results of the State Beard
of Trades Efforts in the
South.

j. A. Filcher, manager of the California
State Board of Trade and manager of the
States exhibit at the Atlanta Exposition,
is highly delighted over the magnificent
success of that venture. When he at first
proposed to have the State make an ex-
hibit at Atlanta he met with more dis
couragement than encouragement from
people in all parts of the country, and for
time it looked as though no exhibit
would be made. However, he worked
night and day and after overcoming obsta-
cles that seemed almost insurmountable
he reached Atlanta with the finest exhibit
OF California products that ever crossed
the Rocky Mountains. AT Atlanta he
found himself surrounded with jealous
rivals and competitors from all parts of
the United States, but these were van
quished and as a result California received
more gold, silver and bronze medals and
diplomas than any other State in the
Union.
Mr.. Filcher yesterday received the first
complete list of the prizes won by this
State and he is justitiablv proud of his eff
forts. The list of the prize winners is as
