President at the Exposition

Now that Seattle Day and its record
breaking attendance Of 117,013 is a
thing of the past, the exposition officials
are looking forward to Taft Day festivi-
ties, Sept. 80, when it is thought the
turnstiles will register the greatest num-
Der of daily visitors yet seen at the fair.
President Taft has no rival in popu-
larity in the Northwest. When he Wis
tied Washington state in September of
1907 he was greeted by record break
ing crowds all along his line of travel.
Business was suspended in Seattle and
everyone made it an object to be at
some vantage point to see the big,
good-natured "Bilp' Taft. His con-
sent to speak in the natural amphithea-
ter and to spend the day looking over
the fair grounds will prove a valuable
drawing card, as it will give every fair
visitor the opportunity to see and hear
the high executive Of the United
States.
