SISTER REPUBLICS
ALIVE WITH ENTERPRISE.

The Republic of Chile has recently
demonstrated its enthusiastic interest
in the Pan-American Exposition BY
making an appropriation Of 100000 pc
SOS, equal to $1S5. 900 in gold coin, for the
purpose Of an exhibit at this EXPOSE
ton. and during December and a part
of January viii hold at Santiago ma
tionat exposition. from which will be
collected the exhibit to be sent to Buff
falo.
Ground was broken recently in the
Court of State and Foreign Buildings
for the Honduras building, in which
that republic of Central America Will
make an exhibit creditable to its prog
ress as member Of Pan-Arnerica. The
building for the republic of Honduras
is designed with an octagonai rotunda-
surrounded with wide porches on three
sides and with pavilions on four sides.
the remaining side being occupied by
the Kitchen and toilet rooms. The cen
trail rotunda and two OF the pavilions
are intended for exhibits of the coun-
try's products There win be a cafe
and offices for the commissioners in the
other two pavilions. Stairs lead from
the rotunda floor to a gallery which
surrounds the rotunda and Is lighted by
skylights and dormer windows. There
are four large circular doorwa~s con-
Meeting the pavilions with the rotundas
which will give a novel and pleasing ef-

the capital, distance of 240 miles. It
is a difficult piece of engineering, as the
capital lies at an elevation of 5000 feet
above the sea level, and the roadbed
must be constructed SO that the tracks
will not be washed away. The opening
of this railway will enable the products
of mineral character to be marketed
at less expense. Quito is a beautiful
city upon a mountain plateau where
eternal spring reigns. Ecuador had
small but artistic pavilion at the Paris
exposition. and its exhibitors were very
successful in winning prizes for their
exhibits, most of which viii be sent

spirit Of the promoters and manage
ment of the Exposition in providing for
the setting of the Exposition a magnifi-
cent. fairy-like spectacle in landscape
and building effects, and in arranging
for the sumptuous. Intellectual enter
tainment Of visitors within the grounds,
has been broader It is safe. I believe,
to now risk the assertion that as re-
suit of all this the verdict of those who
visit Buffalo next year viii be that in
certain phases and in not a few, the
Pan-American Exposition will be justly
entitled TO rank in history as the most
beautiful and successful of American
expositions.
NO one who has approached the sub
5ect of Industrial Pan-America serious
" believes that the artificial trade con
ditiOns now existing between Canada
the different Central and South Amer
lean republics and the United States
as they affect and restrict commerce
and communication between the differ
emit cOuntries-can long continue. Nof
can il be controverted that great
changes for the better in these regards
have taken place during the past few
years Indeed, greater advance has
been made during the past ten years IN
the countries OF the Western Henri
sphere in all that counts for the better
than during the 50 years preceding.
This statement, made broadly, can be
verified i'm detail. 1t applies to every
thing that has tended toward stability
of government, toward the betterment
and Improvement of the people of the
different countries, toward the building
up therein of permanent national
wealth and in the direction of utilizing
10 a greater degree than heretofore the
products and resources OF these coun-
tries.
~ is true that exceptions to this state
ment can be easily pointed out; but,
broadly speaking. 1T win bear investiga-

these republics TO say in this connec-

them for the fact that in reaching this
result they have consistently recog-
nized the theory of arbitration to be
the proper and true method by which
such international disputes may be
solved. Today no boundary difficulty of
any kind affects the peace Of the east

enough to convince Congress that the
work would be we'll done, and hence the
location was decided upon.
This step having been taken and the
die thus cast. Buffalo has risen equal
to the occasion and has subscribed mil
lions of money, and as a city there has
been sunk in one common purpose to
succeed all personal and sectional JeaI-
ousies and ambitions.
A splendid location was selected for
the Exposition, in which there is in
cIuded a large part of the city's great
and famously beautiful park, and from
the time that was done up. to the pres
ent moment the interest and energy
manifested and the strong intent to
succeed in every way shown by the
people of the city in their great under
taking have been focused upon and cen
tered in the work now nearing compile

ton. The extent to which this interest
has been shown can be gagged from the
fact that on several recent Sundays
10000 people have passed through the
wagon gates to the grounds in order
that they might see how the work of
constructing the Exposition buildings
was progressing.
IN its architectural qualities and out
lines the Exposition pays the republics
of South and Central America the hfgE
est compliment possible since in the
character and design of it's buildings
there will be placed before the visitor
the most perfect, the most beautiful
and the most enchanting picture of
Spanish architectural memories that
has ever been presented in any country
or place, while IN its natural attractions
and in the loneliness of its lake and for
est and flower setting the Exposition as
a picture will be a source of gladness
and delight, and a pride as well, to ev-
ery one who visits it. Those who have
its direction and management are do
ing everything within their power TO
bring together about these central, sa-
1ient points those finishing, connecting
links Of fountains, of brilliant lighting
effects, OF music, of gardens, of enter
tafnments and of novelty, which go SO
far toward making up the real life Of a
great Exposition
AS this is being written-six months
previous to the opening OF the EXPOSE
tion-it is distinctly gratifying to the
people of Buffalo and of the State of
New York to be abe to realize, as they
do, that their efforts in the work of
building up and arranging the ground
work of the Exposition have been
warmly seconded on every hand, and
that the DISCOURAGE they have
met with and the difficulties they have
had to overcome, have but more close
~ accumulated and made apparent the
merit of their undertaking and brought
to them the unsought praise and hearty
applause of their fellow citizens of the
