To the Gazette.
The above clipping from the Globe.
Democrat will no doubt interest ma7r
of your readers just at this time. as
see from THE GAZETTE that there is g
great deal of interest being taken in tina
proposed organization of Northwest
Texas for emigration work. The sams
rates, dates, etc, that are given q,
Southwest Missouri has been given 70
Texas from the territories named.
If Northwest Texas will organize and
go to work as Southwest Nissop7
has we will soon convince
the railroad officials of Texa,
that we mean business, and
they will assist us as they have the Ms.
souri, organization. Secretary J.
Gwynn has accomplished a great deal for
his section during the past year. The
association which he represents has had
distributed throughout the old states.
East and North, over two hundred thou
sand descriptive pamphlets giving IN
formation of Southwest Missouri. Hav-
ing done this, they convinced the rail-
road officials that the association was
organized for business and they naturally
joined the people in the work What
has been done by those people can bs
done by us, if we will only go to work.
Having more to offer the home seeker
the way of cheaper lands, and having the
advantage of raising everything they can /;
produce in Missouri, besides a great
many crops that they cannot rs well as
much better climate, we certainly Ough.
to be encouraged to make the effort.
If the fact of having the best AL
rOund'' country on earth-all things
considered, which we have, was properly
made known we would soon settle our
unOccupied lands, that to-day are bring
ing in no revenue either to the owners or
the state. We have among us many a
competent men as Mr.. Gwynn, aud five
back few of them with money and seai
them out in the cid states with the rigai
kind of printed matter we will get The
benefit of the excursion rates that have
been made.
Call your convention, MI. GAZETTE;
