THE CENTEN biased Leading Southern Men on the Great Fair. : | Governor Ames, of Mississippi, Enthusi- astic, but Powerless. iieecnentatieaad A PECULIAR REPORT. Georgia Statesmen Unable to Frocure Ma- terial Aid. Bolow wiil be found the fourth instalment of the interesting series of interviews and correspon- deuce on the suoject of the Ventenutal. Governor ‘Ames, of Mu sippl, hold’ out @ hope that the Legislature of that State may eventually appro- priate something !n behalf of the work, though | at present he believes no money could be 80 vb- | tatued. He evidently trusts to a change of popu- lar sentiment, The Centennial Commissioners appointed 1n Georgia Make un elavorate appeal in | the form of a report to Governor Smith, recount- ing the advantages to the State af proper repre- sentalion and tueimmense resources trom which they could draw ior a magaificent dispiay; but the members of the Legisiature simply passed @ reso- lution which practically meaus they will help, but not with money. MISSISSIPPL GOVERNOR AMES BELIEVES IN IT—THE LEGISLA~ TURE OPPOSED TO AN APPROPRIATION—POY- ERTY WITH GOOD INTENTIONS. JACKSON, March 80, 1875, I found Governor Ames enjoying a game of croquet when! called at the Executive Mansion, {n obedience to instructions, concerning the Cén- tennial. lt 18 said the Governor is the most sprightly of his househola in this sport, and it cer- | tainly seemed a pity that he should be disturbed, Butit was a question between croquet and auty and sof handed the colored waitress my vastebvoard aunouncing my arrival. He soon appeared, rosy cheeked trom the exercise of the game, and look- ing less careworn and more youthiul than when I last saw tim, He advanced with acordial man- | ner and said that he was glad again to see the HERALD representative. He sala that the HERALD, as Dad been aptiy said by some one else, only needed @ navy to make it a power by itself, HE BELIEVES IN IT. “Does the Centennial celebration and anuiver- sary meet with your approval and support?” I asked. Goveroor AMES—Most unequivocally, I believe in the Fourth of July with the same kind of faith that [ have im my polttical convictions, Itis a kind of @ basis ior my political creed, REPORTER—WUL your State, Governor, extend any matertai aid to the Centenntal Exhibition? Governor AMES—That question could more properly be answered by Captain French, of the Legislature, who is Chairman of tue Centennial Commissiou, At the session of the Legisiature of 1874 @u act Was passed creatinga Board of Com- missioners to tho Centennial Celevratton. These Commissioners were appoiuted, witn Captain Frenca as their Chairman, but whetber they have ever done anythiog or not I do not know, REPORTER—The Legislature, then, has made no appropriation to carry out the provisions of the act of which you speak? NO APPROPRIATIONS MADE. Governor AmEs—I am sorry to say 1t has not, I recommended an appropriation in my last acnual message, and I will most cheerfully approve any act that has for its purpose the proper represen- tation of Mississippi at the Centennial. I think it Will be of great benefit to the State to have its products exhibited there, and I think, too, itis a matter of national pride and patriotism shat ail the States should help to make the extuibition wortuy of the Republic. This wili be uo sectional or party affair, but @ national exhidition, in which ali parts of the country and every State shoula particlpate. ReroxTeR—Do you think the Legisiature will make the appropriation you recommend f Governor Ames—l fear no!. The Legisiature is mainly with me ou the subject, but we are en- deavoring to Cut down our expenses to such a sum ment, and 1 thin it more than probable toat a Centennial appropriation at this ume would be de- feated. | STATE RESOURCES, Rerorren--What would be your chief exnibits, Governor, at the Ceatenntal ? f Governor Ames—Weil, you Know our chief prod- | uct 18 cotton, and | suppose we could exnibit the fluest in the world, We could sena, too, some fine specimens of tmber. which embraces hunureds of thousands of acres in the southern part of the State, could furnish pine ana cypress o anexcelled quality, Then, 1 suppose, we might send a buach of oranges, por- | sibiy 4 sialx or two of bananas anda bundie of sugar cane; but I am afraid Florida and Louisiana would eclipse us in this, though we could send some (ne specimens. The Governor added that if no State aid was | given the Centennial there were some private parties in the State Who would take enough inter- | est in the matter to have Some of the provucts of its soil on exhibition, and that possibly the Com- missioner of Immigration would devote a part of the appropriation to lis department to setting | forces Mississ.ppi's c'alms at the Centennial Alter leaving the Governor I sougnt Captain French, bat that gentieman had gone to nis plantation, a hundred miles or more away, on tae Missivsippt River, I then sought Mr. Street, one of the commission, wnom I found in the House of Representatives, making a vigorous opposition aud, I tought, a very able | speech against @ bill creating the city of Vicks- burg aud the county of Warren a metropolican police district. At its conclusion, to my interrog- atories, Mr, Street repited that tae Cencenntal Commissioners bad been appointed a year ago, but had never had a meeting. He did not think, ‘an the Impoverisued condition of the State and overburdened wiit jocal debts and taxation” ({ use his Words), that any aid would be given by the | Legislature to the Ceutenntal Exhibition. I cou- suted several others, senators and Kepresenta- ‘or an ap- propriation, nearly all giving as @ reason poverty and heavy taxation.
