Summary

Invites "manufacturers and capitalists who are exploring the west for opportunities of profitable investment" to consider the advantages offered by Missouri's geography, climate, location, and mineral resources. In particular, the author calls attention to the "manufacturing greatness" of St. Louis, "the commercial capital of Missouri and the central metropolis of the Mississippi valley," with its various businesses and countless cultural attractions making it an ideal candidate to host the upcoming World's Fair of 1892.
