Passenger Traffic Manager of the Southern Railway, says of the Appalachian Exposition, which is to be the notable event of the present year in Knoxville, Tenn., from Sept. 12 to Oct. 12: "Tho Appalachian Exposition Is of the triumphant class. Situated so favorably, Knoxville easily attracts the people or tins whole country. This beautiful section of surpassing fertility of farm and yield of mind and reward of industry, so many people h?*re engaged in gainful pursuits with no drones, no idlers. The very location assures success. Heyond all this the Southern Railway and its associated lines and connections, which means practically all the railroads in this country, are going to put on excursion 'tickets for this Exposition at such low rates, and operate such attractive service, as to make everybody ashamed to stay away. "Within a radius of fifty miles of Knoxville there are nearly 400,000 neonle: within a radius of inn nearly 000,000 and within n radius of two hundred miles about <1,000,000 people, Knoxville thus possesses an ideal location as a center of attraction for a large population immediately adjacent to her own borders. Naturally the greatest number of people in attendance upon any exposition are drawn from the near territory. And although we shall bring many people from far-distant points all over the United States, yet it has been our experience that the average distance for exposition_ travel is 17f> miles. Still Knoxville is so favorably situated that even if this were the maximum instead of the average distance there j're enough people within this radius to make the Exposition a great suc< ess."
