M. c. B. Hart, E1q, Chairman, RhstliRg. ". Va.
My DEAR SIR:-Your invitation 10 be
present at q meeting of the citizens OF
West Virginia in the hall OF the Chamber
OF Commerce In Wheeling, on the 2osh
inst, for the purpose OF devising means
which will attract the attention OF people
seeking investments to the advantages
which our State possesses, has been re-
ceived.
1 regret, exceedingly, that matters Of
business with which I am connected by
reason Of my service on certain commit
tees OF the mate will be before that body
for action during the present week and
will, therefore, require my presence and
deprive me OF tho pleasure OF meeting the
citizens Of the State, who, feel confident,
will attend from every county to manifest
their interest in the object which the Citi-
zens Of your city have lnaugurated.
There can be but one explanation Of
the fsc!, which is patent TO every observer,
that stream ofimmigration flows through
our State to the far West without in any
degree irrigsting our soil. This cannot
be because we have not land Of sufficient
fertility, nor can It be attributable to the
objection urged by the best foreign immi.
grafton that, by reason Of large negro
population they are unwilling to locate in
q Southern State. Our climate ia promo
tive Of health. The variety OF our pro.
ductions and industries equRlling those OF
any State Of its population and area; our
people noted for their hospitality and
cordial welcome to strAngers; country
guarded and protected from the cyclones
and bli11ards that sweep over the western
prairies.
With these advantages, why Is 1t that
our fellow countrymen who are seeking
homes in the far West, and that class ol
immigration which has been flowing from
Europe are not attracted by the Rdvan.
tages which our State possesses? To me
the explanation is found in the fact that
these advantages, to great extent, are
unknown to those who are seeking auch
Investments and locating in the Western
States and Territories. The movement
inRugurRted in Wheeling will attract at
tention and stimulate inquiry by those
interested and, in my judgment, will do
much>to promote the material devel-
opment OF our State. This meeting
in Wheeling, however, will be Of little

follow It up by keeping continually before
the public mind these advantages, and in
my humble opinion the spreading OF this
information should not be confined TO the
limita Of our own country, but should be
disseminated throughout those countries
from which we might reasonably hope to
obtain immigration. This can be easily
done by agencies already established
which, with a triaing expenditure ol
money could be induced to further the
general scheme in the interest Of our
people.
Hoping that the convention Of the 10Th
will be truly representative one Of every
section and county Of our State, and that
its combined wisdom will devise some
plan by which the object Of their assem-.
bling will be successfully carried out and
the material interests Of our State pro-
moted, l Gm Very truly yours,
CHARLES J. FAULKNER.
