New Orleans for their center and which
showed the millions of population with

TO TELL THE TRUTH
On the front Of the San Francisco

jamestown Va, as the center, showing
the millions Of population surrounding
that city. And yet the Jamestown ex-
position is conceded to have been a
failure. The folder viii depart from

that city. Nearly all of these truths are
highly complimentary to the people of
the south. The local directors have de-
termined that they viii indulge in no
mud singing.

one Of these placed in every letter that
leaves San Francisco.
Numerous other pamphlets and ad-
vertising literature are being made up.

will be overlooked to convey to the
world the fact that San Francisc
