some of the directors from the city.
The feeling seems to prevail in most
quarters that Dubuque will not give
the $1,000. which IL to be added to the
fund for the Iowa building at the Frisco
exposition for the reason that this city
is not represented on the exposition
committee appointed by Governor
Clarke which has an even dozen MEM
bers. 1t appears to be the belief that
Dubuque would be foolish to raise and
turn over this sum without being rep
resented on the exposition committee
or getting any publicity at all from the
venture. There were but seven cities
that raised $4,000 or more.
The plans for raising the $1,000 were
to be left to the corporation direc-
tors to draw UP but 1t Is now apparent
although nothing official has been
given out, that money will not be
raised
