1t certainly must DO source of great
satisfaction to all who are interested
in the " elfare of Dallas to note the
fact that she il becoming more settled
and substantial every day. Not only
ns regards her business houses and i'm.
proVements is this the case, but her
trade IL on more solid foundation
than heretofore. 1t Is II trade that will
not be here to-day and gone to-mor-
row; it IL substantial az well as last
ing. She will always he the wholesale
point in north Texas. Grant that all
the surrounding counties withdraw all
their retail dealings from her, the county
OF Dallas alone is large, fertile and will
soon be sufficiently populated to well
maintain twice the present number OF
her exclusively retail establishments.
The hurrah which characterized her
trade a few years ago is over, and in
its stead there Is being conducted a
more solid and systematic business,
yielding thousands instead of humid.
