Every person who has been elected a delegate to the coming convention of the Epworth Leage in this city and every other person who has made known to the committee in San Francisco that he or she will receive from the State Board of Trade a map of California, a picture of the city of San Francisco, the annual report of the State Board of Trade and an invitation to visit the exhibit which the products in the ferry building at the foot of Market street. At least 20,000 persons will directly receive the matter and California will get therefrom a great advertisement, which will be addressed to those who are thinking and talking with their friends about their expected journey across the continent and their sojourn in this city.
Acting Secretary Dennison of the State Board of Trade has secured from Rev. Thomas Filben a book containing thousands of postoffice addresses, which will make it possible to reach the delegates personally. Mr. Dennison is now engaged in addressing communications to each individual, with the assistance of the entire office staff of the board. To make certain that the cards of invitation to see the county exhibits in the ferry building will be retained by the delegates Mr. Denison has had the directory of the principal points of interest in San Francisco printed on the reverse side of the cards, thus furnishing much timely information to the expected visitors. In compliment to the Epworth League the annual report of the State Board of Trade has been printed in the league's colors- red, yellow and white. Literature relating to the counties of California will be distributed to all visitors during the Epworth League Convention, when there will probably be 100,000 strangers in the city from the East.Language
