HYDE PARK STREET RAILWAY.
The company proposing 10 build this
road will have to commence operations
very soon TO retain the franchise granted
by the city council, and ore of the COM
pany says they will! soon be at work.
Considerable interest is taken in
this Fort Worth enterprise by
the people and property owners
living on Rusk street and southeast of
the union depot. The road will pass by
all the hotels in Fort Worth, will take in
the union depot. and give the people liv-
ing near Tyler's lake, and as far as
Hyde Park, rapid transit to the center
of the city. A fund is being
raised by enterprising property owners in
Lake park addition to give to the COM
pany to induce 1t to extend its track
around few blocks and take them in on
the line.
WHAT IT MEANS.
Suppose by active efforts and hard
work 20 900 people were added in
two years to the population of Fort
Worth what would it mean to thu
people now here and the city. 1t would
mean the addition of fifty per cent to
the business of every retail dealer in
Fort Worth. 1t would mean the erection
of twenty blocks of store houses, two,
three and four stories high, it would
mean the building OF 1900 resi-
dences. 1t would cause the sale
of 5000 residence lots. It would add 90
per cent. to the assessable values of
Fort Worth. 1t would increase
the earnings of every street car
500 per cent. 1t would sell the many
laid out and give the shrewd, long
headed real estate man q
chance to 20 further out and
double his money. 1t would make the
city hum, it would make many people
rich. And the beauty of the thing is the
20 600 people can be found, they will
come gladly, If the 20, 900 now
here do their duty. For starter
let the city council hesitate no longer,
but follow the recommendation of Mayor
Smith and build that city hall. Let Six
or seven of the workers, the men de-
voted to Fort Worth, take the field
to-day and make up that Sl20, 900
for the grand hotel and make Fort Worth
the hotel center of the state for all time
to come. Build the Albuquerque and
secure the trade of a country larger aud
more fertile than Massachusetts.
Run the shoe factory, put steam
on the rolling mills. buy from Fort
Worth merchants and manufacturers.
Make jmore streets better sidewalks. Sell !
your vacant lots or build. Put up an
ermory. Build brick or stone school |
houses. If it is money you want, go TO |
work to make it.
