Governor Aldrich has sent out the follow
ing invitation on behalf Of the state Of Ne
braska:
LINCOLN. Neb., Jan. 5, 1911-Dear Sir:
At the request OF the Nebraska State
Board of Agriculture l have the honor to
invite you to be represented at a meeting
to be held in Omaha. on Tuesday, January
Path, at the Rome hotel, at 10 a m. for
the purpose of forming an organization to
be known as the Western Development as
ISOLATION
The original suggestion for this meeting
was made by Mr. c. c. Rosewater general
manager Of the Omaha Bee and The
Twentieth Century Farmer, which publica-
lions are presenting the Omaha Land
show, an exposition devoted exclusively to
western interests
The idea in forming this association is to
unite the interests of the newer west for
the purpose Of interesting its population,
and more particularly for the purpose Of
turning the tide OF emigration from the
middle west, which has been going largely
to Canada and into the south, into its
proper channel. viz. to the west
1t is not the purpose, in calling this meet
ing. in any way to limit the organizations
activity. or to interfere in any way with
any existing organization. BY bringing
together a representation of the officials
Of the states of Nebraska, Colorado, Wyom-
ing, Utah, Montana, Idaho, Washington,
Oregan, Nevada and California, as well as
representatives Of state development or
ganizations; commercial clubs and high
railroad officials of the interested lines, and
any other interested organizations, I'M
questionably great work can be accom-
plished.
win you kindly send your response to
Mr.. w. r. Mellor, secretary of the State
Board of Agriculture, Lincoln, Neb.. and /
trust that you will be able to be repre-
scented. Respectfully yours

for that purpose The Montana legislature
