have pride in the promotion ST the
universal exposition in honor of the
Louisiana Purchase to which this
city owes its existence.
Many and great were the difficult
ties in the path of the enterprise
hours of uncertainty and discourage
ment. Now that the task is well done
and the hour of opening near at hand,
all hail to the civic pride of our peo-
plel All hail to the public spirit and
indomitable energy of President Dav-
i'd r. Francis and associates, under
whose guidance this Louisiana Pur-
chase Exposition has been consumat-
ed for the enlightenment and pleasure
of US ALL
We bid most cordial welcome to
all nations; we thank our national and
state governments; we thank the rul-
ers of foreign countries; we thank the

conferred upon our municipality
through their participation in this ex-
position. Above all, we reverently

ADDRESS OF D. R. FRANCIS.

A great thinker has said, ''The
sentiment from which it springs de-
termines the. dignity of any deed. )"
This universal exposition was con-
ceived in sense of obligation on the
part of the people of the Louisiana
Purchase, to give expressi IN to their
gratitude for the innumerable bless
ings which have flowed from a centu-
ry of membership in the American
Union, to manifest their appreciation
of the manifold benefits of living in
land whose climate and soil and re-
sources are unsurpassed, and of hav-
ing their lot cast in an age when lib
erty and enlightenment are establish
ed on foundations broad and deep,
and are the heritage of all who worth
lily strive.
Discouragements were frequent
enough, but were never disheartening,
and are now all forgotten. We re-
member only the words of cheer and
commentator, the patient considera-
ton given to what was often looked
upon as INSTRUCTED enthusiasm, but
which was persisted in, and almost in
variably converted indifference and
Eskepticism into helpful and active in
terest. The magnitude of the enter
prise was never lost sight of by its
promoters. but its mammoth proper
tons, constantly increasing as they
developed, never for a moment shook
the confidence, weakened the ener-
gies, or diverted from their we'll de-
fined purpose those who had been in
trusted with the responsibility and
the work. Today you see the consul
nation of their efforts.
By bringing together sections and
people hitherto remote and unac-
quainted, and thereby promoting mu-

ward establishing that universal peace
for which right minded people are
striving, and which the exposition
gifted sculptor has SO fttiugly tiyifed
in the graceful figure that crowns
the noble monument at whose base
we stand.
The Louisiana Purchase Exposi-
ton. held in commemoration of the
acquisition of an empire by a deed of
the pen, salutes the representatives,
executive and Legislative, of the fed
'eral government; and tenders most
profound thanks for the recognition
extended and assistance rendered. 1T
acknowledges obligation to states
and territories and foreign countries
for cooperation and contribution,
and makes its obeisance tocommis-
toner's and exhibitors.
Open We gates. Swing wide ye
portals. Enter herein ye sons of
men, and behold the achievements of
your race: Learn the lesson here to-
day and gather from it inspiration
for still greater accomplishments.
