The object of this convention,
like its predecessors, will be to as
sist in the development of the lat
ent resources of the common
wealth by bringing together the
best we can produce in agricul-
ture, cattle, iron, copper, gold,
tin, asbestos, or other minerals
likewise a full line of our build
ing material. consisting of mar
bic, granite, onyx, sandstone,
limestone, cement, plaster, brick
and 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 ser
vice to the state as it will make
known to the world our wonder
fui resources. The association
will tie able TO get free rates on
the products Of the farm, and
mine to. and from the convention
and a very low rate on all live
stock intended for the exposition.
Low excursion rates will be Sc
cured from all Missouri River, il
termediate, and Wyoming points
The convention will consist of
addresses by practical speakers,
specialists in their line. who will
talk on subjects of vital interest
to all who are engaged in the up
building of Wyoming, and who
realize the importance of stimu-
lating state pride. Each of these
addresses will initiate five min
ute discussions on the floor of the
convention, 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 Commissioners will be
requested to appoint ten dele
gates; the newspaper editors liv-
ing 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-
responsible for the next election
of officers of the ASSOCIATION.
They will also choose the next
place of meeting, attend to all
matters relative to the future
work of the convention.
The growing interest manifest
ed in the three Industrial Con-
ventlons, which have proceeded
this one, convinces this associa-
ton that the Casper meeting will
not only equal, but will in all
probability surpass, previous eff
forts. 1t is to be hoped that the
people of Wyoming will take up
the matter at once by preparing
TO ship to Casper the finest speci-
mems of their products and that
they, and their families, will,
when the time comes, attend the
convention. This display and ex-
position will be an object lesson
in the growth and prosperity of
our state and in a practical way
will be a liberal education in all
matters pertaining to the devel-
opment of Wyoming's resources.
Let there be unity of action,
oneness OF purpose ana
assn in the work of getting ready
for this next state meeting; e
membering that what We do for
the fourth Annual Convention we
do for the state and what we do
for the state we do for ourselves.
The executive committee ex-
poets to have $1,000 to distribute
in prizes for all the various kinds
of exhibits. A list of these will
be published later.
