rofs Davis Writes in Interest of
 This County at Worlds Far.
 San Francisco, Cal, Dec. 25.
 kD. TRIBUNE "A short com- manication from me, and closing with an unselfish suggestion to Carroll county people ill general will not, l think, at this time, be entirely out of order.
 will refer in brief to that un- paralleled event of international Importance, the Worlds Fair at St. Louis, and mention at least two ways in which that expo sition may be of almost priceless benefit to our intellectual and financial well being. In the first place no other event of a similar nature in the worlds his- tory can approach it in splendor in attendance, in effect. Every state and territory of the United States will be represented by in dividual displays. New York and Pennsylvania will expend over SSO0,000 for their buildings and exhibits. Foreign nations are entering into the spirit of the show with extraordinary zeal, as is shown by the appropriations for their displays. Germany, France and England have appropriated S3,000, GOO for the above purpose. At least a dozen other nations have donated sums ranging from S300,000 10 S70O,0O0 and every nation on earth will be represent ed to some extent.
 The date for the opening is but little more than four months distant. The intervening time will soon slip past, and persons who fail to make provisions for seeing the exposition will have d life-long source ofregret. Those who had the opportunity of visit ing the Chicago worlds fair were partially disappointed at the be- ginning because all exhibits did not arrive until almost the close of the exposition. We are re- liably informed that such neglect will not be repeated in the present instance, for everything will be ill complete readiness on the opening day.
 But to the main question, how may this fair of 1904 be of especial benefit to us, the people Of Northwest Arkansas? 1.-The ''us" includes the writer by birth and by choice, for he was born among the hills of old Carroll and honors the name and the place. --I shall answer. We nave the exceptional opportunity of DISPLAYING and ADVERTISING our resources to the races and nations of all the earth, and the issue is of vital importance to every section of our state and nation. As 1 have mentioned the exposition will be the chief industrial and commercial feature of the present generation. It will draw to St. Louis thousands yes millions-of enterprising men rom the remotest corners of the civilized world; partly out of curiosity and pleasure, and past-
