Report of
GOVERNOR'S REPRESENTATIVES
for California at
Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition
SACRAMENTO, CAL., DECEMBER 27, 1910.
_To Hon. James N. Gillett,
Governor of California, and Ex-Officio Commissioner
Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition._
_Dear Sir_:--
As your Representatives, charged with the details of California's
representation at the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition, held at Seattle,
Washington, from June 1st to October 15th, 1909, inclusive, we take
pleasure in submitting to you the following report of our work.
It was right that California should aid and participate in a Western
Exposition, and it was wise to make the appropriation for the purpose
sufficient to insure a creditable representation of the State's
resources. Accordingly, on your recommendation, the Legislature
of 1907, set apart from the General Fund the sum of $100,000,
and authorized you, as Commissioner for California, through such
Representatives as it might be your pleasure to appoint, to supervise
the general expenditure of the appropriation in the erection of a
suitable building on the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition grounds, and
the collection and installation therein of such an exhibit as would do
credit to the State, and exemplify in as striking and effective manner
as possible the great variety and superior quality of California's
products.
REPRESENTATIVES.
