Now tina, i is a settled fact that the railroad
from Monroe to Shreveport will be built with
in one or two years, our people should begin
10 turn their attention 10 the question OF immi>

ms but little good unless it brings with tia
class Of hardy and en,erprising farmers TO
build up our waste pleces, to cultivate our
fields and fell our vast forest. The railroad
will not accomplish this alone. Though II
will be an important factor in the matter, 1t
can not be the sole one. The advantages OF

we are DESTROYS of procuring this class Of i'm
migrants we must act ourselves, and not de
