All of these enterprises, which must be
carried thronghi IL we ver hopeto see our
city take the place nature has assigned
her as the Commercial Center of the
Southwest, are, we regret to say, meeting
with opposition from a few who should
use every exertion 10 foster and encourage
them. 1t is not necessary that an indi-
viduaI should be a stakeholder in orderto
see the benefit of project which is calcu-
lated to bring trade TO u city, and add
to its wealth and standing among the
cities of the world. Every citizen should
feel an interest in the matter, and every
encouragement should be extended to
those who embark their capital for the
public good. Let us hear less cavilling,
gentlemen. If you do not invest, at least
do not discourage those who have faith
in our ultimate prosperity.
