WINNIPEG CONVENTION. 



Arrangements are now rapidly- 

 progressing for the Winnipeg Con- 

 vention within the days July 7 fo 

 10. The exact apportionment of these 

 days has not yet been decided, but 

 it is possible that the Convention 

 will open with addresses of wel- 

 come and replies on the evening 

 of July 7, and that the business ses- 

 sions will take place on July 8 and 

 9. In any event the meetings will 

 lie within these four days. 



Place of Meeting. 



The sessions will be held in one of 

 the halls of the Winnipeg Industrial 

 Bureau in the heart of the city at the 

 corner of Main apd Water streets. 

 This building, which covers the site 

 of the famous Manitoba Hotel and 

 Northern Pacific Railway Station, 

 has two large assembly halls and a 

 number of smaller rooms which may 

 be used for committee rooms, etc. 



Railway Arrangements. 



Owing to the fact that this meet- 

 ing will be held during the first days 

 of the Winnipeg Exhibition, those at- 

 tending from within the Winnipeg 

 Fair territory will purchase the 

 special rate tickets then in force, 

 and will thus not be required 

 to secure certificates. The Winni- 

 peg Fair territory embraces all 

 the country, in Canada between Fort 

 William and the Calgary Edmontoji 

 district. From all stations in Can- 

 ada east of Port Arthur members at- 

 tending as delegates can secure a 

 round trip for a single fare (plus 

 25c) on the certificate plan, the par- 

 ticulars of which will be furnished 

 on application to the Secretary. The
