A GREAT EXPOSITION
Soon to Be Held at the Gateway of
 the South.

Soon to Be Held at the Gateway or
 the South.
 Norfolk, Va, Jan 21.-In a few months, April goth, the great James town exposition will open on Hamp- ton Roads near Norfolk, Va, afford ing an opportunity for all to witness a sight that none should miss. On historic anchorage, representations ' from every naval fleet of the world. displaying mans genius in modern construction will assemble. Our own proud navy will do honor to it's record, and inspire an ambition for still greater attainments. For the first time in history the powers will parade their regiments in company with our own troops. These facts make it an opportune time for all Americans to learn something of ''The Gateway of the South" and the marvellous development in progress there.
 This exposition will be seen on 2 spot filled with pleasing associations, where naval warfare was revolution ized, where beauty on shore and on water surpasses all previous exposj- tion sites, that cannot fail to charm and interest the hosts that will at tend. Americas wealth of resource, material and mental, there present. ed, will convince even 8 skeptlc that the future has in store for this coun- try an aggregation of means besides which past holdings will be as noth- ing.
 The scenes there open to study will not only convince the world that no other power could safely attack the United States, (and thus ensure peace), but that the products of he' fields, mines, forests and factories there exhibited sum up assets too vast for present calculation.
 The wisdom and appropriateness of holding the exposition on Hamp- ton Roads will be apparent to the millions who will see the most unique exhibition the world has ever beheld, and 1t will fasten interest in all that pertains to Norfolk harbor--nature's Eastern gateway for exportation.
 From this port radiate g per cent of all the railroad trackage of this vast expanse of territory, bringing to and shipping from its wharves tonnage that returns a wealth of dollars that is making the port the envy of all the outside world and the pride of every right minded American.
 A few items will illustrate the prosperity of the port of Norfolk while the whole history of 1900 Is in line of that given:
 Building-In city, 63S permits: in surroundings Ia additional; total cost over $5,000,000.
 Expenditure-In sight for the next three years for general state and local governments, industrials, etc, $39 900. 900.
 Postal receipts--1900, $116.161; 1905, $200,465; 1906, $241,632.73.
 nufacturing-Hands employed within Norfolk county. 1880. 752; 1890, 2791; 1900, 4750; 1905, 21.- 900.
 Banks-1s04, Capital, $1,943,000; surplus. $1.4S5,294; deposits, $10.- S3S.327: loans. S9.666,011; 1905. capital, $2,201.O00; surplus, $1,622,- 191; deposits, S13,62S.142; loans, s11.S66.919. 1906. capital, $2,903,- 900; surplus. s1.955.Sss; deposits, $17.207.52S: loans. $15,275,52S: Clearings of 1906 increased over 1905 25 per cent.

FOR THE ELKs' CONVENTION.
Series of Patriotic Concerts Arranged
 for Independence Square.

Philadelphia, Jan 21.-One of the many features arranged for the en- tertainment of the visitors to the Elks' convention and reunion, which is to be held in this city during the week beginning July Is, is nightly concert in Independence square. The concerts will be given by the largest and best of the many bands which are expected to take part in the weeks festivities, and every program which will be arranged will be made up principally of patriotic airs.
 This is a feature which has here tofore never been attempted at any of the Elk conventions. and it is only possible in a city like Philadelphia be- cause of the many beautiful squares, or parks. which can be found throughout the business and residen- tial sections of the town.
 Independence square Is so called because it is bounded on one side by TOW of state buildings. which are to-day the most historic structures in the country. The principal buildine of this group Is Independence hall. wherein was signed the Declaration of Iniependence. and wherein the visitor to-day can see the original draft of that famous document and the old bell. which first proclaimed Ifbe-tv throughout the land.
 The concerts. which will be given within the shadow of these buila'rg gs, promise to prove among the most fn- teres-ing diversions which will be provided for the visitors.

Two More NormaIs for State.

Colorado is to have two more normal
schools. The lower house OF the Legis-
lature has given Its final approval to
two bills, appropriating $4,000 for
each of two new schools. One will be
located in Durango and the other in
Grand Junction. For years there has
been a bitter struggle to create new
normal schools in the state, but the op-
position Of Greeley, where the only
normal school was situated, always
prevailed, and there have been some
memorable lobbies in the past which
have worked diligently to defeat these
bills.
There was lively battle between
Glenwood springs and Grand Junction
for one OF the gchools The former Of
fered to give $4,000 In cash and five
acres OF ground worth $4,000. II the
Legislature would locate the school
there. That would have saved the
state $4,000. The Glenwood Springs
people also promised to see that the
maintenance of the school cost the tax.
payers less than any other similar
school In the state.

New Bill Breeds Candidates.

Hardly had the caucus railroad com
mission bill been passed by the Senate
and put up to the governor for his ap-
proval, when the hum OF candidates
began to be heard.
Elmer L. Rittenhouse, deputy state
insurance commissioner. was put for
ward as one OF the probable commits
sioners. He was connected with the
construction of the Colorado Midland:
plso was with Contractor Collbran,
who built a railroad In Korea.
The name Of James Culton, local
commercial agent of the Illinois Cen
tral. has also been put forward.
The friends of Thomas c. Scott. sec
retary OF the Colorado Manufacturers
Association. are backing him for one
of the commission.
Another person talked Of Is s. II.

mas; also George l.. Hodges OF Den
yer.
A. B. Gray. A. b. McCabbey and
Charles w. Cochran OF Denver are
mentioned for secretary of the COM
mission.
Other candidates will spring up as
mushrooms during the next few days.
The salary of the commissioners Is
SO, 900 year each. This amount Is
hardly sufficient to be an incentive TO
secure good men for the places. Tho
sc secretaryship will pay $l,SOO year.

Suits Vets and Orys.

The Senate passed the local option
bill. already passed by the House. IL
only needs the signature OF Governor
Buchtel. said by officials OF the anti
saloon league to be readily forthcom-
ing, to make it law.
at Is not all we asked for, but we
are satisfied" said Superintendent Nc
Laughin as the bill was passed.
Repre- scntativcs OF the brewerics
and the whisky interests make the
same comment.
The iii, provides for means OF clos
ing up saloons in cities. wards, pre-
cincts o. townships. 1t does not per-
nit the closing of them In an entire
county.
II requires petition signed by forty
per cent of the voters to get any ac-
ton to bring the question to vote.
The bill. as passed, strikes out tho
