terested in the coming exposition II
the LEGISLATURE passes a resolve ap-
propriating money for an exhibit to
have the emergency clause attached
to the measure so that the resolve
will become a law when the governor
affIxes his signature to it. Otherwise.
under the referendum law, the money
for this purpose would not be avail
able until 80 days after the adjourn
ment of the Legislature.
Other EYpositions.
Three good-sized expositions have
been held in recent years. the Louis
lana Purchase Exposition at st, Louis,
the Oregon Exposition and the one at
New Orleans, although Maine had no
representation at the two latter af
fairs. The Louisiana Purchase Expo
sition was held in 1904 and those ac-
quainted with state affairs will doubt
less remember how the appropriation
of $40, 900 was made. The regular ses-
sion of 1903 adjourned without maxi
ing an appropriation for State Of
Maine representation at the exposi-
ton, but the adjournment session,
which was held in the following Sep
tember for the purpose Of passing on
the revision of the statutes, as was
the custom every 20 years, voted an
appropriation, at the urgent request
Of Hon. John r. Hill of Augusta, who
was governor at the time. mostly be-
cause of the fact. it was said, because
Mrs. Hill was a former resident of
st. Louis.
The commissioners from this State
for the Louisiana Purchase Exposi-
ton were Louis B. Goodail of San
ford, Lemuel Lane of Westbrook, Hen
ry w. Sargent OF Sedgwick. Charles
G. Burrill of Ellsworth and Frank H.
Briggs of Auburn. Major Edward E.
Philbrook of Portland, who now has
charge Of the, work of the extermina-
ton Of the brown tail and gypsy
moths under the direction Of the COM
missioner Of agriculture, was the Sec
retary of the commission and had
charge of the log house in which were
different exhibits from the State Of
Maine, the largest of which was that
of fish and game, which was made by
the S. L. Crosby Co. of Bangor.
The Goodalls Of Sanford exhibited
the products Of their mill, including
plush goods, horse blankets and diff
ferent weaves of dress goods; Mr..
Lampson Of Portland, a photographer,
exhibited views taken in various Sec
tions Of the state, pictures of hotels
and their environments In the summer
resort regions were shown; and the
State agricultural department had a
large exhibit of potatoes and apples
In the State Of Maine building as well
as in the agricultural building, where
the products of every State were to be
found. This building was a story and
