BY KENNETH GERALD ALFERS A THESIS Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the Creighton University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History. Omaha, 19^8 S- 2 0 - 0 2 f / h es 15 /* 2 2 V / % > 0 fklZb C . 2 Thesis Approved Preface International expositions have received relatively little attention from scholars in the past. Nevertheless, expositions are illustrative of man’s progress and development. There is hardly a more striking example of this fact than the Trans-Mississippi and International Exposition held at Omaha, Nebraska, in 1898. * Since the frontier had been pronounced as closed only a few years before, it was fitting that the trans-Mississippi region display its wealth as well as its capabilities. Omaha was fortunate to be the host city for an exposition that symbolized the progress of the West. The city benefited greatly, being infused with an economic and spiritual uplift at a most opportune time. The primary objective of this thesis is to present a comprehensive description of the Trans- Mississippi Exposition, In doing so, however, I will also analyze its success and attempt to place it in its historical perspective. Many people aided me in the realization of this endeavor. Two of them deserve more thanks than my I MEMORIAL UBRART Cmfhtwi University Omaha, Nebraska vl mere expression of the word, can convey. My thesis advisor. Reverend Robert J. Shanahan, S.J., was most enlightening and patient in his direction. My indebtedness to him goes beyond this thesis, for he has been an inspiration during my entire graduate program at Creighton.

CREIGHTON UNIVERSITY, OMAHA, NEBRASKA. 1901. &1s 1 \<V Jht aZVHBV J^l2iew V 3 I* PREFACE. The members of the Creighton family have written their names conspicuously in the annals of benevolence in Nebraska. Many who have seen the work of their bene­ ficence have asked for some information about them, the atmosphere inwhich they grew up, the influences which fostered their charitable spirit. This sketch is a partial answer to these inquiries, an effort to do some tardy jus­ tice to men and women whose example is worthy of imi­ tation. In gathering and putting together the material for this sketch the Professor of History inCreighton Univer­ sity has found his greatest obstacle in the unaffected modesty and reserve of some of the surviving actors in the scenes which he wished to describe. They were anxious to avoid publicity. They regard themselves as plain, every-day people, withno special claims to distinc­ tion; for fortune happily did not rob them of their charm­ ing simplicity of manners. As of old, they readily grasp in friendship the hand of the lowly, and still remain ex­ emplars of the old-fashioned Western democracy, which gauges men by their character and worth rather than by the extent of their possessions.

NE'BRASKA ART TODAY & @~~lY~~~~&[b ~~W~lY&lY~@~&[b ~lX{[}{]Urn3~lY~@~ .T .··•··T:. ~ : In anticipation of the celebration of the hundredth year of our state, the Nebraska Centennial Commission asked the Nebraska Arts Council to form a cultural committee to undertake the task of planning a program worthy of the amazing progress of our people in all the arts. Bearing in mind that in the context of art history, Nebraska's contribution is relatively brief, this assignment was accepted with enthusiasm. On the other hand the assignment was undertaken not without trepidation: so much had been done by so many in such disparate fields. Therefore it came as a relief to the Committee when Nebraska's two major museums, the Joslyn Art Museum and the Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery, offered their years of experience and the expertise of their professional staffs in assembling a representative collection of painting, sculpture and graphics by living Nbraskans.

Cope Ziska, M.A. University of Nebraska, 2012 Adviser: LuAnn Wandsnider At the close of the nineteenth-century, Omaha, Nebraska hosted the Trans- Mississippi and International Exposition of 1898. Despite financial depression, drought, and war, the city chose to allocate its limited financial, time, and energy resources to the Exposition effort with no guarantee of success and little potential for profit.
