Will You Help? The Leader believes a majority of the taxpayers of Lincoln county feel the importance of having a display of our products and resources at the Lewis and Clark Fair. Other counties will be there with the best side out, and there is not one good reason why Lincoln county should not fall in line. True, preparations for the exhibit should have been started earlier, during the fruit and vegetable growing season, but there is still time and material suffl. cient for a creditable display. Every taxpayer in fact, every voter in the county can well afford to con tribute to this effort to advertise Lin coin county and attract homeseekers and investors. Everything possible has been said in favor of the undertaking and nothing of weight can be preeented against it. Wheu tho citizens who have been delegated for this duty call upon you, meet them with a smile and a dollar or as much more 83 your big heart and conscience may command. Let us not take a back seat Let us show the vis iting thousands that Lincoln county is on the map and worthy of their re sp9ctful consideration. County, Oregon, Friday, DRAMATIC RECITAL.

The leading nations of the warld and many of the lesser ones have durinc the last few days appointed their na tional commissions to the Lewis and Clark Centennial, and these have al ready commenced working in co-opera tion with the Exposition management. The commissions of several nations which exhibited at St. Louis have al- ready commenced assembliug their ex hibits lor immediate shipment to Port land, and there is no doubt whatever that the powers will be represented at the World's Fair by extensive and com prehensive displays. Many of the ex hibits brought from St. Louis will lie supplemented by fresh displays from auroau, tnus assuring the patrons ot the coast show the height of ,excelience in foreign exhibits a eiirtrtnutioii nf tne cream or wnat was exhibited at St. Louis and additional displays imported tor ine occasion. There will be exhibits fr -ji nearly every nation that arises to th dignity of a place on the map. Englund will maintain her dignity against Germany and Germany against France, while Japan and Russia will struggle for su premacy in, a battle of peace. China will have a great display, and Siam and Ceylon Spain, Mexico, Italy, Turkey, Austria and Egypt will he represented. Even Morocco and Persia will exhibit, Denmark and Sweden have likpH'i.m fallen into line, as have Holland and Belgium,, and numerous nowera of lss importance. Great interest will center about th exhibits from Japan and Russia, both nations having been attracted bv the Oriental aspect of the Exposition. The Japanese are planning for a big na tional pavilion in which will he sh own their products, manufacturers and in dustries, educational conditions, and displays of fine and liberal arts. Rus sian participation will be on much the same lines, particular attention being given to silk weaving and other manu facturing industries. The Russian fln arts exhibit will probably be the finest at the r air. It will be made ud of works executed by the modern Russian painters and may be housed in a renlica of a handsome eld Moscow palace oc cupied by the Romanoffs of the early dnvs. .. France and Italy, too, will have fine art displays, and as these have long held precedence as art cen ters, their offerings will no doubt be notable.
