JAMESTOWN RBAG IN, OF COURSE.
Senator oepew Says 1t Would Have
Been a Success If 1t HAD Been Held

ExpositIons.
tBy Associated press ,

WASHINGTON. ID. c., Feb. 6.-The
Senate today passed after some de-
bate the bill providing for the parti-
cipatlon of the United States in the
Alaska Yukon Exposition to be held
IN Seattle, Wash. in 1909.
Now" Senator Burkett, of Nebras-
ka, said, this proposition to hold an
exposition did not originate in Alaska.
1t has been put forward by lot OF
boomers of Seattle who propose to
boom their real estate and their pri
vate interests.
The men who promote these ex-
positions" said Mr.. Burkett, ..are not
the men who have TO bear the respon-
sibility for the bills incurred.
They start an exposition" he said,
and unload their ideas on the, com
munity and then demand our money
and the money of every nation on
earth TO pay for IT.
AIr. Burkett read n list of exposi-
lions in the United States showing
that s20.960.727 had been expended
by Congress In aid of them
Mr. Tillman supported the idea OF
holding eXpositions, saying the Char
lesion Exposition had brought a great
many people from the North to the
South to be Civilized" there. He
believed in expositions in order to
encourage travel among the people
from one section to another.
Senator Carter believed the idea OF
equity should influence Congress in
approprlating for an exposition in the
far West. as so little had been done
In aid of that section.
Senator Depew advocated the pas
sage of the bill In speech in which
he asserted that the failure of the
jamestown Exposition was due to its
location. IT." he said. at had been
