ADDRESS TO FIIE Publ C.
The propositions of the Missouri Emigrant
TnftfR DO A
enterprZI ng-nOne others are desired and none
but such will be knowingly received. the de-
sign Is to interest all and benefit each, and no
/ plan can be presented which unies more pros
pect of success aud Gereh:, wI,hiess chance of
loss, than the one proposed. Ii IS ID, as all
successful movements must be, upon the enter
Prize industry ana prudential character Of those
who Join IN the undertaking. Each man must
be the architect of his own fortune, labOrinS for
himself and rcapins IN rewards OF MS own
industry. There IS community OF interest
after lhedlvs0n of he lots takes place. there is 10
handling OF the funds OF profits by a select few,
or others specially appointed after that Time, but
each man will pursue his own interests ana hIs
own happiness, as his best judgment shall die
tate.
The benefits proposed TO the emigrant are to
be found IN the rapidly increased value Of :he
! property pLrCha sed aud the improved comfOr :
of life by the instant combination Of 80 mary
/ families upon ore advantageous point OF location
/ The value OF Town lots increase in direct pro-
portion TO the Advantages of the lOcaIIun aud
| tbs number, industry and prudence OF the nhaO-
| llduts. \ TOT 10 any village OF fOlty or tfty
! families will cost from $50 To 500, and IN city
| Of one thousand families, lots will cost from
$500 to $500, and here Is proposed TO crea'e
city at once Of one thousand families, whore Eve
large lots aud four acre out lot may be obtained
for one hundred dollars The increase OF value
must be rapid and by lrCper care and manage
mcnt will lay the foundation for future ndtpen.
dence, and il may te wea lth TO each individual.
| The adjoining lands will be IN the possession OF
| tho company who expect al once 10 erect saw
mills, FlOuing Mills and other machinery for
ma ffnafrt all faaFvr
plOyment and interests Of the industrious Emf
grant.
The proposed lots will be owned in severaty;
each one will be m Ister Of his own time, bis own
labor, and his own mt rests, that there can
be no collision between the original pTOpuctUTs
and the respeC, i've owners Of the lots. Each one
Is left to r Sc as ne may be industrious and pru-
Thus u you join the Association you are
promised nothing, unless YOU JOIN a citizen TO
find a new home aud a better field for ylur in
dustrY in the opening aHd fertile WEST. If
| you remain behind You must stay IN an obscure
village with property at a low price and then not
/ worth buun2, or u you go into town Of one
thousand families you must expect al once to
pay from $500 20 $1,000 for small lots when you
can obtain FIVE lots and the out lot by aSsOciaiiug
| 20 create city at once.
Cities, the size Of which u Is proposed 20 COM
| mence az once, have been from fifty To one hum
| bred years Ih growth. Here az moment you
