The most important question now be-
fore the people of Colorado and the
great west is, shall our National Min
ing and Industrial Exposition, this
most intelligent factor in the interests
of our many and varied resources, be
made a permanent institution, or shall
of u few short-sighted and envious per-
sons, be numbered among the lost OPP
portunities of the past? Colorado is
not without her experiences. She has
more than once been made TO feel the
evil effects of narrow-minded policy,
and having learned her lesson, it is
now high time that she should step
from under the dark impoverishing
clouds of croaEerism. assert her right,
proving her superior judgment by at
once making the National Mining and
Industrial Exposition a permanent and
prosperous institution. and the eShibi-
ton for 1884 grand success. This in
stitution. if taken hold of now with
that energy and intelligent interest it
deserves from every honest mai. in
terested in the present and future pros
perity of Colorado, and the great west,
despite all opinions to the contrary
and we know what we are talking
about-will, before twelve months roll
around. be acknowledged by all to be
the most brilliant, praiseworthy and
successful enterprise ever undertaken
in the west.
That the Exposition. even under the
many and great disadvantages it has
had 10 labor during the past two years,
has, notwithstanding all this, proven
its usefulness, and the benefits conferred
upon this and adjoining states and ter
ritorics. there is not the slightest ques-
ton Of doubt in the mind of anyone.
saving those whose lives are made up
OF that sort of atmospheric influence
that blisters and blights anything and
everything tina, is unfortunate enough
TO come under its control. Wyoming
has nobly taken her stand in defence Of
this institution. and although not
claiming as large and wealthy a popu-
lation rs we do. she has already mani
tested an enterprising spirit in
all things, and an interest in this spec
ial institution. the National Mining and
Industrial Exposition. that is second
not even to Colorado. and her honestly
expressed convictions as given in the
message to her Legislature last week.

not only great, but prosperous and hap

genera good of this great West Of

us respect at home and abroad.
