Jackson Miss. September 21.-The
management Of the Mississippi Expo
sition which will be held in jackson
as usual in November next are now
hard at work to provide for the mag
nifcent agricultural and industrial
displays which they have been quietly
working all through the summer. The
interest In the political campaign, of
course. overshadowed the exposition
for time, but since the campaign is
over and the people have settled down
once more to the regular routine of
daily life. interest in the exposition
is reviving with reactionary move
ment that almost overwhelmed the
management at first; but they have
risen equal to the occasion, and have
almost completed magnificent, spa
cious agricultural and Industrial build
ing on larger plans than they ever
dreamed would be necessary this year
When it was first inaugurated as an
experiment it was believed that. the
people of the state would take to II
and see the advantage of exhibiting
their resources, but it was not be
lieved that the exposition would grow
SO rapidly and while preparations
We're made last spring for greatly
enlarged exhibit, stiIl nothing like
the extensive plans now being made
were dreamed of
The old capitol building, with Its
long corridors and rotunda and with
the numerous large and spacious
rooms, on the first and second floors
win contain vast amount of exhibits
when properly arranged. The frs
year of the exposition the old capito
was found to be sufficient for all pur
poses. The second year the demand

for floor space Increased to such an
extent that the old capitol was not
half big enough, SO the management
built large two story building, about
1875 feet by 80 and this was filled from
top to bottom. The grounds around
the old capitol were also ample the
first year for all purposes, but the sec
ond years demands made it necessary
to spread outside of the yard and take
in the big baseball park. This sea-
son. the third year of the exposition,
a second monster exhibit building has
been erected, more than double the
size of the first one and yet there Is
still some doubt as to whether there
will be room enough and careful eye
will be kept on the situs tlon so that
another building can be built If need
be. The Exposition Company now
has control of the old capitol building
and all the grounds except the south
ern end of the grounds which is now
q Confederate park. Besides these
grounds the company Will have the
baseball park and will have twenty
| five or thirty acres more in the rear
of the ball park. The grounds of the
old building will be used for tented
exhibits and temporary structures fol
live, stock, poultry, sheep, dogs, An
CORA goats, etc. The cattle exhibit
which will be select specimens of the
finest pedigreed stock, will be the larg
est ever gotten together in the state
The poultry exhibit will number from
1900 to 1900 fowls, of all kinds.

COTTON PICKING
IS SOMEWHAT SLOW


Captain Watts, superintendent of
the county farm, was in town yester-
day, having come in TO take the me-
gro Jim Jenkins to the farm to serve
the time to which he was sentenced
in the forenoon.
Superintendent Watts said that the
rains that have been SO regular late
ly. have interferred very much with
the picking of cotton ON the farm, but
that eighteen bales have been picked
epd ginned so far with four that have
not as yet been sent to the ginnery.
As soon AS the rains let up so that
the cotton can be picked the work will
go on steadily and that he certainly
expects not less than seventy-five
bales as the result of this years work
The superintendent stated that none
of the cotton of this years crop ha,
as yet been offered for sale and he fur
Their said that as it is of good grade
II should bring satisfactory prices
whenever it is put on the market.

MANY OTHERS IMPLICATED
Tin. THE SAME TRANSACTION
Conviction Of Senator Horah Would
Result Favorable to Meyer and Pet
tibone, Who Were Indicted Joint
y with Haywood.

Boise, Idaho, September n. United
states Senator William E. Borah, lead
or in the prosecution Of William D.
Haywood and other undesirable citi-
<zens" of the Western Federation Of
Miners, will face an Idaho jury Mon
day to defend himself Of the charge
/ OF conspiring to defraud the national
government by securing illegal entry
OF timber lands. The trial will attract
national attention, as Senator Borah
is "a personal friend Of President
Roosevelt, and the latter is alleged to
have used his influence to prevent the
arrest Of the senator when the indict-
ments have used his influence to pre-
\ vent the arrest OF the senator when
the indictments were returned last
4 April in order that Borah might be
free to conduct the Haywood prose-
cution. Although several other prom
inent men were indicted with him.
4 Senator Borah has been granted the
privilege of a separate trial Wit
nesses have been subpoenaed for
Monday, the date set for the beginning
of the trial, and it is believed that
there will be no delay. as Borah has
been insistent in demanding an imme-
date trial.
1t is likely that the trial Of George
Pettibone, who was indicted with
Haywood and Meyer for the murder
of Ex-Governor Steunenberg, will have
to be postponed as a result Of the
Borah trial. In that case, attorneys
for the Western Federation of Miners
will probably demand his release on
bail. If Borah should be convicted it
is generally believed that the. cases
against Pettibone and Meyer would be
dropped. Borah has been the main
stay of the state in the prosecution
Of the federation leaders. and If he
should be convicted Of. a crime it
would serve to thoroughly discredit
the state in the Steunenberg case.
The case for the government will be
conducted by Attorneys B. M. G.
Burch, of Denver, and s. H. Rush, Of
Omaha. The latter is a special assist
ant attorney general, representing the
department of justice. He has re.
lieved District Attorney Ruick In these
cases, owing to the allegation OF
Borah that Ruicks personal enmity
toward him was responsible for the
finding of the Indictment Ruick will
act in an advisory capacity only al
the trial.
The Indictment against Senator
Borah and others was returned by the
federal grand jury last April, and
charges. conspiracy to defraud the ma
etfesal government in connection witt
securing valuable timber lands by the
Barber Lumber Company, for which
Borah waa ttorney at the time Of the
transaction.
In addition to Borah, the indictmen
Of the grand jury includes Frank Mar
tin, attorney general Of Idaho undel

Case of Nichols.
During It's Investigation the board
MI, Nichols lad charged that Mr.. Ken
nedy had bought an old manuscript
from him under the statement that he
was buying It for the State Library,
when. in fact, he was buying i Tor
profit. The manuscript, was the same
mittce. While Mr.. Nichols was n resi-
dent Of Richmond. and had not testi-
fled before the legislative committee in
contradiction TO- Mr. kennedy,s state
probe the matter as fully as possible.
Before the board Mr.. Kennedy testified
that. when AR. Nichols offered him tho
manuscript. he submitted + to the exc
cutive committee of the library board,
and asked whether the library would
purchase 1t at the figures named by
NLr, NICHOLS, CIltLt lles conlllii lhet.; re-
FUSED That he then asked whether
the committee would object to his buy
ing 1t personally, and was told that
there was no objection. In this he was
corroborated by Mr.. Patteson. OF the
executive committee. He stated that
he bought the manuscript personally
| from Mr. Nichols. That afterwards Mr..
Nichols having heard thnt>,he had sold
1t for profit. claimed that he ought
| to have part of tho profit: that he re-
| fused to recognize any such Claim; that
( Mr.. Nichols has. on more than ono oc-

| demanded the entire profit. and said he
| would not take anything less: that he
( (IIennedy) had told him again That
