iron. This means that the time is COM
ing when Pittsburg will send to East
Texas for her iron. Then your railways
will be built cheaper aud easier and
Texas may huzzah for her grand achieve
meuts. East Texas shows iron ore from
two to twenty feet thick. But you say
we have no coal. There is
world of charcoal all around us,
and when we get deep water with ships
drawing thirty feet of water into Sabine
Pass and Galveston, instead of dozen
railways running through this section
you will have thirty penetrating the coal
districts, delivering US coal at $3.50 per
ton, and sending you iron for all your
machinery.
In the lumber product we have sut1i-
Client to turn out "a 900, 600 900 feet at
$40 per thousand. We send II TO Col
orado, and to the far west, and II is
almost the last reserve of long-leat pine
on the continent. That section which
you twittingly call the .'pine region is
the country of imperial wealth which is
marching to the trout with rapid step.
VI produce 1863. coo bales of cotton an
nually: our taxable values are Sl6S $780,
600, or oue-fifth Of the taxable values OF
the state.
FIVE million dollars are required TO re-
move tie annual cotton crop of Texas TO
New York. Open the ports of your gulf
coast and load it on the ships at Calves
ton, Sabine Pass and Corpus Christi and
send it TO Liverpool. Instead of ,50O,-
600 bales Of cotton Texas could just as
easily raise 8, 900 200 bales. Cotton Is
king in the world of commerce. Cut off
the American supply of long staple cot
ton from the markets of the world one
month and all England would tremble
on her throne.
Branching off on to the educational
question, the speaker called to mind the
fact that Texas sends out every year
about ST, 900, 200 for the education of her
children, when we have universities and
schools the peer Of any in other states.
Shs spends $50 200, 600 per year for
bacon and lard, when she could raise,
without one ear of corn, enough hogs
to send out $40 200, 600 worth OF that
product every year.
He wanted to see Texas people live ut
home, politically, socially and morally.
Let our BOYS and girls marry at home.
Love your home people and your own
land, for ours is the coming imperial
state of the Union.
