If any one man deserves greater honor than th other 'that man I H. W. Corbet t. Not that he was first to sug gest that such an undertaking J) .tried. not that he was In favor of It after the agitation was begun, but because. after he had been persuaded by more than a hundred persons who called on him and urged him to Indorse It and while he was still In doubt as to Its probable success, he did the one act that made it aZlsuccess. Without H. W. Corbett'e subscription of $30,009 ' the Lewis and Clark Centennial, American Paclflo Exposition and. Oriental Fair never would, have :been held. Ha -that4 subscription been only $15,000 the cause would have been lost. Thirty thousand dollars electrified the city to the center. Everybody was aroused.- It mad It poaalble to raise the subscription to up ward of $400.000., It made It poaalble to get tli government appropriation.- It made the exposition a success and noth ing less could have made It a success. H. W. Corbett was the only man con nected with the exposition from first to last whoae abaencs would have been fatal to the enterprise. . Therefor I place In nomination the name Of 1L W. Corbet t for first honor In ths history of the Lewis and Clark Centennial, Ameri can Paclflo Exposition and Oriental Fair, and suggest that the Historical societj bow compile "the history of the greatest event that ever occurred In Oregon. - It was the spirit of the cltlsens of Port land that mads the exposition a auo cess, ' but ' that spirit needed the . pa triotism of H- W. Corbett to arouse it to th necessity of the occasion. FRANCIS I. M'KKNNA. t J 1 . CURES WORST CASES OF CATARRH Woodard, Clarke ft Oe.
