Fayette EnterDrise. ~
I'VE had the pleasure of meeting +.
ID. Ludwig, Esq, of Switzerland, who is
now visiting this part of West Virginia
| for the purpose of securing a suitable
location to be occupied by colony OF
his countrymen. We found him in an
affable and agreeble gentleman, whose
whole being seems wrapped up in the
one idea of lettering the condition oil
his cOuntrymen and at the same time
opening up a trade with the mother
country. We hope it will seem mete to
our large land owners, to give encourage
ment 10 this immigration scheme, by Of
fering their lands at fair price, and by
giving such information as to our timber
and minerals. as well as the productive
ness of our soil, as will induce him TO
locate colony in our county. Let HIM
know with what hospitality they Will be
received, that their lives and property
will be held as sacred, and be as amply
protected rs in their own native noun
tains of Switzerland. Let him know
lhat those who come amongst us Tor the
the purpose OF permanently abiding
with US, and who intend to assist us In
the development of our great national
resources, will be received with open
arms and will be hailed as benefactOrs,
and as such will be protected in all that
is dear to such liberty loving people as
the natives OF Switzerland are. While
other states are appropriating large
sums OF money annually for the pur-
pose of encouraging immigration to West
Virginia, with abundant wealth in soil,
timber and minerals, with climate I'M
surpassed for variety and salubrity, with
mineral springs gushing from the labra-
tory of nature whose every drop carries
within itself the ingredients for the
Eealngof the nations, with penurlOus-
ness that is niggardly, does nothing to
invite the bone and sinew OF the labOrer
from other lands, nor the surplus capt.
tai now seeking investment. All that
has been done to bring West Virginia
prominently before the world as the
home of the free, the Canaan of the
laborer, the paradise of the poor man
and the land that flows with milk and
honey, has been done by the press OF
the State, without hope of reward while
the owners of large tracts of unprOduc-
tive land, who in the end will reap the
rich reward OF immigration, grumble at
high taxes, and lend their influence to
keep our legislature from apprOpriating
money to secure a portion OF the foreign
born population this is rapidly pOpula-
ting our western states. This must be
looked after by our next legislature.

wealthy bankers sagacity. Besides
having much wider and more promis-
ing field to operate in, he is known
to have been in several stock COmbina-
