The Chicago Tribune thus endtayors
to stem the tide of emigration which is
swelling and settling from the West to
the South:
"If the South wants Northern men or
Northern capital she must grant politl-
cal and civil equality, give every man
his rights of citizenship, allow freedom
of speech and an honest suffrage, and
meet the North a full and fair half way.
Otherwise IFS Southern paradise will re

The Chicago Daily Times says /:
There are indications that Louisiana is
waking mp to her true interests. An
immigration convention met at New
Orleans on March 5, at which there
were present yer 300 delegates from
all parts of the State. A number OF in
teresting speeches wese delivered,
Astounding in statements as to the re-
sources, unoccupied and untitled lands
of the State, prices at which land may
be obtained, and advantages to immI-
grants that are surprising. If the as
s61ions made ut this convention by
prominent gentlemen are true, Louisia-
ma offers a rare field for the immigrant.
If they are substantiated and brought
to the attention Of persons desiring to
emigrate from Etaope or the Northern
| States there will undoubtedly o set
in a tide of emigration to Louisiana.
| What is needed is to see that the en-
thusiasm of this convention does not
expend itself in speeches at home. 1t
needs to seek the immigrant personally
and to put the facts before him with
great minuteness Of detail. This bust
ness of encouraging immigration has
been reduced to a system in the North
west. One man of energy, sense and
abundant means can do more for emf
grafton in Lanisiana than many owen
tions. He needs enthusiasm, energy, {
wide knowledge of the facts, and money
enolgh to make chem available.

A special FROM Dallas, Tex, to the
Times-D Democrat, says:
The farmers of Texas have got up a
combine worthy Of. note AL over the
Union. They have organized a stock
company with unlimited capital-that
is, more money is offered than can be
at present used-to erect exchanges,
warehouses and manufactures for the
sale of cotton and its manufacture, and
the manufacture of all kinds Of agricul-
tural implements. The several hun
dred acres north of the city known as
the Cole Fair Grounds, have been pur-
chased and are being put in order for
the reception of machinery for making
plows, hoes, rakes, buckets, harness and
many other articles, as we'll as a cotton
factory with 10000 spindles.
A cotton exchange and warehouse is
being erected in the heart of the city
where, perhaps, half of the. crop of the
| State will be sold by sample. 1t is ex'
pected that this organization will lead
to a dictation of prices to some extent
at least, and if the alliances of othe1
cotton States can be brought to coop
crate with Texas, it is thought perfect
~ practicable to raise the price to ff
teen or twenty-five cents per pound.
The hackers of the movement say i
is high time cotton planters were goin!
into q trust, and it only needs an mi
tiation and an opportunity for such
movement to be everywhere accepted
