the EXPOSITION OF AN empire
What Is to be shown 1T the Greater
America Expedition From the Rich
Country Acquired by Our Government
In the War With spain-A Display
that Will Com mmand the Admiration of
Hundreds of Thousands.

In days gone by the road from en-
pire to republic has been long and
marked by desperate struggles. In our
own time we have seen a republic be-
come an empire almost In a day; a
free republic annexed, kingdom
wrested from an old world tyrant and
added to the possessions Of younger
nation. The thunder Of Dewey's guns
announced the opening of new and
strange chapter in American history,
chapter of grand achievements and
mighty potent. The destinies Of peo-
pie may be at stake. the fate OF ma
ton may hang in the balance as the
result of the stirring events crowded
into the brief space Of single year.
1t has been said that the dreams
which nations dream come true and
those who would give form and force
to such dreams must needs under
stand not only the possibilities of sue
cess, but the dangers of failure.
When the war with Spain began a
great exposition was well under way.
an exposition international in its
scope. Its promoters realized that war
was likely to be detrimental to such
