THE WHEELING CONVENTION

The wheeling meeting of the Ohio
Valley Improvement association is
close at hand, with evefy preparation
possible made by the local commit
tee of the city of Wheeling and OF the
commercial and industrial organiza-
tions of the city for the comfort, the
convenience and the pleasure of the
delegates with admirably arranged
details for the facilitation of the
business coming before the delegates
representing the commercial and in-
dustrial interests of the richest val
ley not alone of the United States
but of the globe.
The wealth, the annual output of
raw material and manufactured
product of the Ohio Valley states, to.
gether with their agricultural pro
ducts were comprehensively stated
by President Vance in his address to
the Memphis convention in which,
with justice unquestioned. he char
acterized the Ohio as "the strong
right arm of the Mississippi" And
such it is emphatically. In the de
velopment of the valley no factor
could possibly be so great, nor so far
reaching in its effects as the compile
ton of the nine foot stage from Pitts
burg to Cairo Nothing can more
effectively conduce to that most de-
sired consummation than large and
representative delegations from every
city and town and community in the
Ohio valley, with our own city lead
ing in the representative character
of its delegation.
Thursday and Friday, November
IA and IS, will be, in fact, red letter
days for the Ohio valley and for the
improvement of the Ohio river. Not
one delegate chosen should absent
himself. Never were the prospects
for completion of the nine foot stage
SO encouraging, but for that very
reason the Wheeling convention
should be made the most representa-
tive of the entire series.
