THE NEW SOUTH.
The Fall Season Opens with Brighter Prospects
Than Ever Before-New Deals
on Foot.

The Manufacturers Record of Septem-
Der says: The fall season opens with
greater realizations and better prospects
for the South than ever before known in
Its history. The South's splendid show
ing, as set forth in last weeks Manufac-
turers' Record, created widespread COM
ment and confidence. This reliable fore
cast of the South's prosperity was spread
broadcast over the country, finding its
way into the Geographic columns of
nearly every prominent newspaper. The
prospective increase of $500 900 ZOO in the
value of Southern agricultural products
this year, as compared with 1880, COM
bined with activity in other lines, will
bring the South up to high-water mark
in its prosperity. Industrial and general
development are keeping pace with this
wonderful advancement in agriculture.

turers' Record show increasing invest
ment of outside capital in the South.

A CALL
For Convention of Texans Interested in
Developing the Manufacturing and her-
camille interests of the state.

Fort WORTH CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
SECRETARY s OFFICE.
Fort WORTH, Tex, Aug. Il, 1890.
A convention of delegates from trade
ana manufacturing organizations, munio-
qualities and people interested in devel-
oping the manufacturing and mercantile
interests of Texas has been called to
meet in Fort Worth on September "a,
1890, for the purpose of devising ways
and means to induce capital to seek our
state and accomplish this object.
The advantage to accrue to the people
of Texas by having our raw material,
found in endless quantity in this state,
manufactured into merchantable COM
modities must be patent to every mind
that has given the subject careful con-
sideration Manufacturers are disposed
to come to our state, capitalists are IA
vorably disposed, but there has been no
united action to place before them the
facts about our resources and the vast
field open to them and wholesale mer-
chants. This convention Is called to
meet the demand made upon the state.
1t is proposed to have Eastern and
Northern manufacturers and capitalists
present at our deliberations. Governor
ROSS mas OK pTtsSeu HllIluSuSsS " SO-
operate in the matter.
To this end you are cordially invited
and requested to send one or more dele
gates from your organization, munich
pality or county TO this convention.
Efforts will be made to arrange with the
railway companies for reduced rates to
delegates and others who attend. As
the time is short we respectfully urge
immediate action aud request that you
send to the secretary of the Fort Worth
chamber OF commerce the names of
those selected 10 represent you IN the
convention.
K NJ. VANZANDT, President.
E. S. BIDEN, Secretary.

notice of capitalists, but the recognition
of her magnificent fields of minerals,
timber and other raw material for
manufacturing purposes will be fastened
by such action as that contemplated in
the Fort Worth board of trades call.
without some such action such re-
cognition may be delayed even beyond
the lifetime of the present generation,
for capital is accustomed to crawl on all
fours in looking for investments.
Much has already been done to
draw the attention of manufacturers to
Texas. and great good to the state has
been the result, but the greater part still
remains to be done. Past efforts in TINS
direction have only scattered seed in fer
tile ground, and there will be no harvest
without liberal cultivation. Those who
look forward to a rapid development of
Texas must bear in mind that little is to
be gained by swapping real estate and
laying off additions unless there are de-
mands for business locations and resi-
dence lots, and such demands come le-
ultimately only as a consequence upon
larger population brought hither to en-
gage in manufacturing enterprises. The
factory is the basis of permanent pros
perity, and the factory is what Texas is
after. Fortunately the enterprsing
spirits which have led Texas thus far in
her recent plunge toward industrial
greatness fully appreciate these condi-
tons. There is, therefore. reason for
the most sanguine expectations concern
ing the future manufacturing interests
of Texas

WHETHER or not government owner
ship be the sequel and logical outcome of
government control of railroads, we
don't know. 1t may, or it may not.
But if it is, as the Waco Day appears to
believe, then is the argument for an
effective and continuous control by the
government, of the railroads so much
the stronger. Where the right to own
exists, the right to control in the surest
and best manner possible, can hardly be
questioned. Is that not SO, dear Day2

THE Republican state convention of
Kansas organized by making a farmer
permanent chairman, and then nominal
ing for state offices the present incum-
bents of those Offices, in other words the
same old gang. In the deal the farmers
get the Craftsmanship of the convention,
while the old crowd takes the offices.
That is the sort OF deal the farmers have
been receiving from the g. o. p. for
generation or more, and yet they kick
because they have not got money enough

FORT WORTH AND THE ALBU-
OUERQUE ROAD.

The Fort Worth GAZETTE asks the questions:
''Why cannot Haskell, Throckmorton, Young
and other counties unite with Fort Worth and
build the Albuquerque road?''
The counties enumerated by THE GAZETTE all
want railroad: but the people have often
held meetings and taken counsel together that
they have almost grown weary in well doing. as
they have nothing to show for their time and
trouble. But if the people of Fort Worth be-
come aroused aud go to work in earnest, 1t is
not yet too late to build road, and when it is a
known fact TO the people of these counties that
there is earnest intention to build the road
they will do all they able, for they appre-
ciate their great need of a road and the benefit
they would derive by having one. When Fort
Worth gets ready to go to work let her pass the
word along the line to the Northwest.-LJacks-
boro Gazette.
The people of the Northwest are bound
TO Fort Worth in bonds of sympathy and
seek stronger ties; but they cannot af-
ford to wait always. They want rail-
road connection with Fort Worth, but
if Fort Worth cannot give them the
needed facilities they want a railroad.
Fort Worth has no time to lose if it
would bind the Northwest to itself for
ever

THE WEEKLY GAZETTE.

The constantly growing circulation of
the Weekly GAZETTE is evidence that the
effort to furnish flrst-olass paper de-
voted TO the interests OF the people is be-
ing appreciated.
The Weekly GAZETTE is a twelye-page
paper, containing summary of the news
of the world for each week, and is filled
with choice literature and miscellaneous
reading matter, which must prove in
structive and entertaining to the young
as well as to the old.
The Agricultural Department, edited
by Professor STEELE, recently introduced,
commends the Weekly GAZETTE to all
Texas farmers and contains matter each
issue more than worth the price of the
paper.
AS an advertising medium the Weekly
GAZETTE is incomparably superior to any
published in the Southwest, and offers
unequalled facilities to all who wish to
reach the people of Texas.
