ARKANSAS AT THE FAIR
Great Preparations Are Being Made
For Arkansas Day At The
Big World’s Fair.
The St. Louis Republic says:
“Citizens of Arkansas and the
exposition officials are united in
their efforts to make Arkansas
week, the six days beginning1 Sep
tember IP, the banner week of the
exposition.
' The fact that the territrry out
of which the state of Arkansas was
formed was a portion of the Louis
iana purchase, has increased the
friendly sentiment of the people
towards St. Louis and the exposi
tion, and the universal expression
which comes to St. Louis through
the Arkansas commissioners is
that the population of their state
will turn out in force to make Ark
a,ls s week at the World’s Fair a
record-breaker. The week will
he eventful in many respects.
’Several of the great states in
1 the l nion will celebrate days, and
the governor of Arkansas has been
invited to take part. An interest
ing program has been prepared
j for Arkansas day, Thursday, Sep

pants in the Arkansas day parade
will be (ren. Haines and his staff,
the Kssex Fusiliers, the Fifth Io
wa National (luards, the Rich
mond Blues, and several other
military organizations, with sever
. al of the finest bands in the state.
, Many of the prominent men of
; Arkansas will he present, and the
speakers on the program are
am mg the best-known men in the
i United States.
' "Inasmuch tvs the exposition is
indebted to Arkansas for the build
ing of the World’s Fair more than
to any other state, Arkansas pro

were constructed, the Exposition
Company is especially interested

The Arkansas Gazette says that

its normal proportions. I he an

and the annual outflow has begun.
Within the next month it is esti
