Something. It is to be good from curtain rise till curtain fall.

Reduced Railroad Fare

Manager Gilbreath is to be congratulated upon being able to secure reduced railroad fare rates to the exposition. All railroads in the state have granted him a reduction in fare which amounts to a 2-cent rate. This is quite a concession on the part of the railroads and will place the item of fare at a minimum in the expense account.

Extent of the Exposition.

So extensive is this exposition to be that the reader would tire of the accounts of the many details which will be of vast interest.

In a nut-shell it may be said, and truthfully, that this exposition is to excel all others as well as anything of its kind held in this part of the United States. It will consist of a collection of agricultural, dairy, industrial and mercantile exhibits which will be little short of bewildering.

There will be so much, and it will be so varied that one will find enough to attract and entertain for the whole time which the exposition will be in progress. The business men of Bismarck and the citizens of the state are back of Manager Gilbreath in the determination that this is to be by far the best, biggest and most successful exposition ever held, and one which will set a pace for others to follow for some time to come.
