Omaha daily bee., 1899-07-14

ing On this line ! expect TO see as GOOD
an attendance in September and October IS
there was 8 year ago.
Robert Roseu weir-EveTyone seems 10
feel better now and the exposition can be
made o success What 81 wants Is plenty
OF advertising ] have just returned from
. trip through the east and the people uon
know anything about IL.
j. T. Utt-There is no reason why the
rev MANAGEMENT should not make rousiug
success OF the show The people OF ttis
section we're never so prosperous and they
never had 50 much money as they have nov.
The farmers have big crop in sight and as
coon as they get it harvested they will want
to 20 somewhere. The exposition will be
their natural destination, and ] expect TO
see the attendance aggregate 1000 600 peo-
pie during September and October, We
ought 10 be able to figure that the show is
at least ten times as good as the state fair,
and the attendance from points within lOO
miles Of Omaha ought TO he enormous
A. r Tukey-I think that the exposition
will now be success was against II AT
first. but now we have il. and everyone
should make an effort to see 1t through.
A C. Harte-Everyone is glad TO see that
the exposition is now on the road to sue
cess. and ] think that the city and county
officlale should get together and make a
demonstration that will help TO add to the
enthusiasm ] am in favor Of closing both
buildings early some afternoon and taking
everyone out to give the show a big send
of With the right sort Of an effort the oc-
casiun could he made a notable one from a
local standpoint, and it would give the ex-
position a decided impetus.

part in the exposition this year and know
nothing about it except what ! have read.
But ] certainly think that, with the right
sort OF management, it can be made a sue
cess
r. R RinEwalt-The men who have just
been elected to places on the executive
committee are citizens in whom everyone
has confidnce and they will make rous-
ing success of the exposition. There was al
together too much politics in 1t before and
that will kill any popular enterprise. The
character Of the men who are now at the
helm is Il sufficient guarantee that the un-
dertaking will be conducted on business
principles and ] believe ii will be success
full.
W. s. Balduff-The exposition is now in
good hands and it win be a success /
have no suggestions TO offer ms the men
who are in charge are competent to run
it, but ! think that a liberal policy all around
will be advisable.
o. ~ Woodward should think the re-
organization would be Of great benefit to
the exposition if all dscord is banished and
the new committee is given strong support
by directors and citizens.
Rev. Luther M Kuhns-Anything that
will promote the good of the city and ad-
vance the interests Of our business men
who have the welfare of the city at heart
meets with my approval
Nat Brown-Everything is all right so
far as ] know. Had / nor read II in the
newspapers ! would not have known there
was an exposition running OUT there; so
the change certainly can do no harm.
c. z. Sparks believe that everything
has been satisfactorily settled. The Central
Labor union will lend its hearty support
to the exposition and do all ii can 10 make
1t a success.
Jay e. White-It certainly needs some one
TO take care of the exposition and keep it
from degenerating into a Midway show.
The infusion of new blood into the com
miuee ought to be beneficial, especially as
the railroads are represented.
Beecher Higby-They have some excellent
new men on the executive committeeman
succeed If any one does. ] believe that
later in the season the business of the ex
position will improve and that in the end
it will be a financial success. 1t deserves
to be; the grounds alone are worth the
price of admission.
c. o. Lobeck-That new blood they have
infused into the executive committe is
fine thing for the exposition. The three
men added are strong men and will do the
affair a great deal Of good
Health Commissioner Spalding-I have not
followed the details of the controversy
closely enough TO give a judgment on it.
The exposition should be continued, how
ever, and doubtless win be.
c. H. Forby-1 am opposed to the recent
proceeding and believe that il was wrong.
am republican and the former executive
board was democratic in tendency; still
do not think the proper course has been
pursued.
