The Texas Immigration Movement.

AUSTIN Texas, March Goth, 1888.
Editor FREE PREss:-,rhe recent Immigra-
ton Convention Mt Dallas, composed of
able and representative men from every
portion of the State, were impelled with
one unanimous sentiment, which was that
the welcoming arms of Texas were thrown
wide open to the industrious immigrant
from whatever cline, or whatever creed, or
whatever political persuasion, to come with
in her domain and assist in developing her
wonderful resources, and thereby share the
prosperity of her new march of progress.
The Press of Texas seems TO be alivo to
the importance of presenting facts concern
ing our State TO the rest of the world.
Therefore it needs no argument upon our
part to impress upon you the value of such
work
If every copy of every issue of the papers
in this State with immigration inducing
facts, could be sent to porsons outside the
State, with the name of the person in the
State upon the paper it would have in our
opinion an effect upon immigration that
would be beyond conception. All that it
would cost each individunl would be the
trouble of wrapping the paper and putting
a one cent postage stamp on il for mailing
In order to do as much as possible towards
encouraging such action, the Executive
Committee Of this Bureau hereby request
that Won will publish 10 svery issue of your
paper a request therefor. One method Of
presenting this invitation, would, We sug-
gsss, be by inserting in large heavy face
type, somsihing Ike that below, Ia every
issue Of your paper. in one OF more promi-
nsut places. the following:
The state Immigration Committee re-
qae,is that every Subscriber in the state
