THE DALLAS HRRALLp speaks OF the
building of railroad from Dallas to
the Wichita mountains, and of another
road from Dallas to Sabine Pass via
Palestine. This latter road would be
an important one for Dallas and the
northwestern prairie coulties. IL
would pass through some of the finest
pincries In the world, and be skirtcd
by immense cypress brakes. ltwould
open up vast mill interests, and supply
that whole country with lumber for
building purposes at a cheaper rate, hy
far. than It can he brought from the
Northwestern States.
Sabine Pass in our opinion, Is des-
tined at some future day to be n place
of great importance aud magnitude.
II has really the best harbor ON the
Texas const. The water over the bar
Is from twenty to twenty-five feet IN
depth, and the bar being of soft mud,
vessels drawing few feet more than
this can come in, forcing their way
through the mud. Galveston's bar at
fords no more water and then 1t Is. OF
hard firm sand. Jefferson ought tt
