The public parks are many and beautiful, natural con-ditions being largely preserved, and an elaborate and extensive parkway system is being evolved to encompass the City. FortLawton, a United States military post, is within the City, while the Puget Sound Navy Yard is located across the Sound an hourssail away. In the waters of Puget Sound adjacent to the Navy Yard the entire navy of the United States may ride in safety withample anchorage. The crowning effort of the people of Seattle is the great exposition now taking place within the city gates. The businessmen of the City rallied loyally to support the exposition management in every struggle and exigency, overcoming every obstacle,caused by changing business and political conditions, which seemed at times to menace its greatest success. The grand result isthis magnificent example of spirit and enterprise, the beautiful Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition.
