city and State, We copy the follow
ing,which we clip from tho St, Louis
Democrat of a recent date, in which
our citizens can see too plainly for
doubt, that they have advantages
in their hands that ought to be i'm,
proved speedily:
oun TEXAS TRADE.
Comparatively few Of our citizens fully
appreciate the extcnt to which the future
commercial expansion of st, Louis viii be
due to tho enlargement OF our trade rels-
tions with Texas. Texas Is n mort fair
and promising field, and, il thoroughly
manipulated by our merchants, will return
us irnde which will, by the magnitude
u will achieve within ten wears, ast0nish
the world. Texas is capable of producing
M much cotton per NnDum as tho entire
balance Of tho cotton States combined, and
IL large share OF the cotton which she
produces docs not make st. Lous rerma-
ncntly its market. il will be because our
merchants are lacking in NIL of the essen
tial qualities which are combined in the
successful business man. We have direct
railway connection with all portions Of
Texas, and the predictions Of the Texas
people nre favorable 10 this CT ty, both com
mercialy md socially. ERigrntion is
rushing into oil parts Of Texas most i'm.
poiuously, and thousand OF new farms are
annually opening in the state. Every
inch of Texas soil viii grow Gotten, and
good cotton, too. Cotton being light,
impei shNble and trnnsportable staple and
a cash article, is the best crop to raiss.
Therefore, most Of the farmers Of Texas
will grow cotton solely aud buy their broad
and moot. These supplies they must pur-
chase of st. Louis, for the excellent reason
that we can furnish them better meat and
Hour, and more promptly through our d..
rect rail connections than any connecting
city can therefore 4 is morally impossi.
bio that st. Louis should not soil this class
of goods to Texas to the comparative ex-
clusion of similar goods from other cities.
MIR. Braxton, the business manager of
tho Dallas (TeSas) Herald, is in the city.
lie states that Dallas is some seventy-hvc
miles south of Denison, on the Texas Cea-
haI Railway, and is just AZ eager to trade
with st. Louis sauy of her more north ern
naighbors. Dallas ID u city of 5000 in
habitants, is the commercial center of n
large aud feriiler region, Cotton planting
is the chief business and some 10000
bales are annually handled by tho NOR
chants of Dallas. From Dallas north
westward is projected tho local railway
known MS tho Dallas and Wichita Noun
tain road, II will be $50 miles in length
and will traverse for many miles the rich.
est lead and coal deposits of Texas. Dallas
people are quite enthusiastic over this pro-
Jected road, and declare that its opening
viii more than quadruplc the prosperity
OF their energetic little city. Its quite
probable that in few years more pig lead
Will form one of the largest items of ship
ment from Texas to st. Louis Tobacco
VIII certainly be another large item.
Fruits of msny kiud5 and carly vegetables
wiI4 soon follow, but cotton and cattle will
probably be her chief exports for many
years to come.
