It Is an enterprise, a big show, pure and iluiplc, fn and for Des Moines, to bring people to the city and give them something to sec; and above all to Impress the world with the unlimited source of wealth which lies beneath the city. For such a purpose the plan would be a grand one.

It was proceeding to con namented with corn, wheat and other grains, the products of the rich agricultural country, of which Des Moines is the center. It would advertise our coal and agricultural resources better than anything else coulil, for the reason that it would set every paper and every individual in the country to talking of them. Reduced railroad rates could be had from all distant points outside of the 8tate; and the railroads Would assist in distributing our adver-, tislng matter everywhere. In that way, incidentally, we would get a good many thousand dollars' worth of advertising. There is no reason to doubt that it would be a success financially.

8Uux City's receipts ftom her corn palace came within a few hundred dollars of reimbursing her for the entire outlay. Can any! one suggest a plan by which Sioux City, for five hundred dollars, could have secured as much advertising as her corn palace gave her? But if we consider the thousands of dollars that her visitors left with her business houses and hoteU, wc see at once that it was a financial success of the biggest kind.
