The fourth annual convention of the
Wyoming Industrial association will
take place at Casper September 20, 81
and %. 1904. The object Of this con-
y%ention, like its predecessors, will be
to assist in the development of the
latent resources Of tie commonwealth
by bringing together the best we Tan
produce in agriculture, cattle. iron.
copper. gold. tin, asbestos, or other
minerals likewise a full line OF our
building material. consisting Of mar
Bile. granite. onyx, sandstone. lime
stone. cement. plaster. brick ano clay.
If We can have a full and complete
display of the above products of our
farms. ranches and mines, it will be
of great service to the state as 1t will
make known to the world our wonder
full resources. The association will be
able to get free rates on the products
Of h farm, n mine to and from
the convention and a very low rate on
all live stock intended for the exposi-
ton. Low excursion rates will be Sc
cured from all Missouri river, inter
mediate. and Wyoming points.
The convention will consist of au-
dresses by practical speakers, special
jects of vital interest to all who are
engaged in the upbuilding of Wyo-
ming, and who realize the Importance
of stimulating state pride. Each of
these addresses will initiate five min
ute discussions on the fioor o. the o n
vention. where the subject will be
thrown open to all who may care to
participate in the proceedings.
Delegates TO the convention will be
chosen from the different counties as
follows: Each board OF county COM
missioners will be requested to ap-
point ten delegates; the newspaper
editors living at the county seat of
any county will appoint ten; the may
or of each city in the state will appoint
ten. Each board of trade. chamber OF
commerce, and commercial club will
appoint ten delegates. These delegates
will conduct the convention and be re-
sponsible for the next election of Off
GERS of the association. They will al
so choose the lex place of meeting
and attend to all matters relative to
the future work of the convention.
The growing interest manifested in
the three industrial conventions which
have preceded this one, convinces
this association that the Casper meet
ing will not only equal. but will in all
probability surpass. previous efforts.
1t is to be hoped that the people OF
Wyoming will take up this matter at
once by preparing to ship to Casper
the finest specimens of their products
and that they, and their families, will.
when the time comes. attend the con-
vention. This display and exposition
will be an object lesson in the growth
and prosperity of state and in a
practical way will be a liberal educa-
ton in all matters pertaining to the
development of Wyoming's
Let there be unity of action, one
ness of purpose and enthusiasm in the
work Of getting ready for the next
meeting ; remembering that what
We do for the fourth annual conven-
tion We do for the state and what we
for the state We do for ourselves.
The executive committee expects to
have $4,000 to distribute in prizes for
the various kinds Of exhibits. A
list of these will be published later.
