But let the SkcptiC run his eye over the

IN" volume of population will increase.
heCaUS" this country is yet but SparScy
settled. and is Capabl" of being made to pro-
ducc beyond the Imagination of even an

We have living streams that can be turn

Of land that can prOduC" enough to feed
the present population of the United

But what else have YOU?
We have the great wool market
Of the northwest: the great horse
stock yards. and We will have the great
cattle market of Texas. Our good Uncle
Sam adds neat little sum To our cX-
chccQucr. Now who can compute the
dollars left with Us annually by the Opu-
lent stranger. Our city, by its attractive
ness. its health, its climate, produces
without effort a large income from the
transient visitors during the wear. This
source of revenue will be largely increased
as our city becomes improved. it will be-
comes the destination of thousands of
tourists. And if you ask again what it is
that makes san Antonio so prosperous

causes that make other beautiful, pleas
ant cities prosperous.
To-day. a 800 room modern hotel would
produc" more to our city than cotton

We can add factories. and thereby en-
