Have Been Secured.

Spokane, June l0.-There will doubt
less be two exhibits of ore from Washing
ton at the Omaha exposition. One will be
in the mining building where it is ex-
pected to compare favorably with the ex-
hibits from states that have seen many
more years of development in mines. The
other will be in the Washington state
builing. For Washington is to have a
building after all.
Some time ago the commission aban-
doned the idea owing to lack of time but
Seattle and Tacoma were not satisfied.
The builing itself was intended to be a
handsome display of Mashington's lum-
Der interests and there was disappoint-
ment when it was decided not to erect it.
Yesterday Captain C. H. Thompson re-
ceived a message from Chairman Thomp-
son of the commission sating that Seattle
and Tacoma have raised the necessary
funds and the building will be erected.
1t was also stated that the grounds has
been secured and the work of preparing
the lumber and all the construction that
can be done in the state will be done at
once and the material shipped at an early
day at Omaha.
