Eight months from now, on the
first day of June, 1909, the gates of
the Alaska-Yakon-Pacific exposition
j at Seattle will be thrown open to
the public.
For four months
and a half the first great Paoific
world’s fair will receive visitors
from all parts of the globe.
If the
visitor comes on the last day, or in
August or on the opening day, be
or she will find things the same.
It is the intention of the officials of
this exposition to break all exposi
tion records, to establish a prece
dent and have all complete and in
readiness on the opening day. The
slogan of the enterprise is just that
“ Ready-on-the-opening-day."
The
people of Seattle and the Pacific
Northwest are accustomed to doing
things and they will do this with
characteristic promptness and en
ergy.

it need not be if any one would
consider and study it.
The study
of building pubile highways will

county in the state should work to

meeting which was held in Port

was framed to present to the
coming Legislature. It is only a
suggestion when I say that an ap
propriation of $ 10,000 for each
county must be asked of the state,
the counties to appropriate a like
amount, this fund to be used for
rosdbuildiDg. If a county cannot
contribute that amount and can
give only $ 1000 , then give that
amount, the balance, $9000, to go
into a general fund to be reappor
