I ekes, |r "Secretary of the Interior" Friends of the West: It is altogether fitting and proper that President Roosevelt should hove signally honored this meeting with the congratulatory message which I have had the pleasure to deliver to you, for this is indeed an historic occasion. This convention is a mile-stone on the road of American conservation, no longer a narrow path beaten through the wilderness by the dogged determination of the Deportment of the Interior, but a broad ' well-planned highway, built through understanding and cooperation, and leading literally to greener pastures. ⢠It is an' occasion because this meeting is the first of its kind in the history of the industry. It is a pioneer gathering of the representatives of western stockmen bent on establishing r. new frontier, - and I use; the term "frontier" in its fullest meaning, - "an"advanced region of settlement and civilization". We have advanced under the Taylor Grazing Act to the settlement of important economic problems as well as administrative questions. We are, therefore, establishing a new frontier for the stock industry of the West. V/e hope to perpetuate all the spirit and romance of the Old West and weave it into a. sustained and regulated industry of the future. The romance, of the West' has not vanished like the waters of a dry river. 'It has merely changed to less spectacular but certainly to no less thrilling courses. You have but to substitute "the saving of the West" for the empire builders"battle cry "
