The people OF Pittsburgh and Western
Pennsylvania generally take IN active
interest in everything affecting the we'll
fare of our next door neighbor, West Viz.
pinla, because we have many interests in
common with the Pan.HAndle State, We
are, therefore, in full sympathy with the
offsets Of the proposed State Convention
which Is TO be held OF Wheeling on the
ooh inst, in response to call from the
Chamber of Commerce oil the latter city,
and hope Il may be success in every
narticular, The preliminary idea is to get
Tenresentatiye citizens from every county
nj the State together, to consult "a to the
bsst methods for bringing the han'Handle
State and It's resouyCeaI before the
public, and induce capitalists in other
localities 10 come thither and make In.
veStments In manufacture, commerce and
lands. According to the Wheeling INTEL.
LIaRNcKR, the interest In the proposed
convention Is widespread, and the pros,
pect is that It will result in Q general
awakening which must give West Viz
ginia substantial boom. No common
wealth In the Union otfera better oppor-
tunihes for the investment Of money,
brains and muscle, and all that Is needed ia
10 let this fact be more generally made
known, The convention will be made up
OF men OF all parties, who will or ought to
work harmonlously together for the &C.
complement Of % common purpose. A
long pull, strong pull, and . pull all to.
gether will accomplish wonders in the way
az attracting investors.
