Extracts from Report Oh Texas
by the New York Chamber
of Commerce.

Texas Is the only state where teEa-
perature, humidity and soil are
equally suited to the distinctively
southern crops In conjunction with
all the grains, fruits and forage
plants of the more northern states,
and likewise to the prolific breeding
of all kinds of farm animals.
Texas is a state of such magnifi-
cent distances-an empire within IT.
self-that proper investigation of
it's mineral resources would require
not few days but few years. 1t
would require considerable hardi-
hood to definitely state that any
mineral Is lacking. In every sec
ton il seems to me that further ex-
ploration is warranted.
The natural resources of Texas as
lumber state are very hard 10
equal tn this country, and the natur-
al conditions seem TO be very attrac-
tive for the investment of capital
But the great capital necessary to
operate large concern can't easily
be brought together except in eorpor-
ate form, and legislation hostile to
foreign corporations must necessar-
lily tend to discourage them from
subjeetiug themselves to II.
When these stable conditions as
to the supply of labor shall have
been reached by the evolution Of a
su ficiently large and properly
skilled artisan class, Texas viii
have a very important advantage
over other sections in the relatively
low cost of living, which inevitably
results in correspondingly low prices
of labor. III is al unshakabie fact
that because of climatic and physi-
cal reason the actual necessities OF
life cost less and will always cost
less I'm the southern than in the
northern states. When southern
manufacturing industries have at
command and artisan class OF per
sisteni indu stry and highly devel-
oped skin. they viii have a decided
advantage In labor costs.

boarders. The number VIC u1d

there had been available accommo-

the latter account, several young
men had to be turned away.
It takes 100 loaves of bread per

AFTER TIMBER LANDS
Hired Special Train to Get There
Taking Timber at Yachats.

An ebullition of timber land
craze was manifest Saturday even
ing. Fourteen persons, some men,
some women, passed in a special train
during the night over the Corvallis
& Eastern. They were bound for
the Yachats, to take timber claims.
Their haste was such that they
could not wait for the regular train
and they hired a special to take
them to Yaquina. They arrived
at the latter place at $40 in the
morning. From there, they passed
on down South Beach to Yachats
where it is supposed they made
their selection of timber. They
are expected out on the return trip
today or tomorrow. They came to
Albany from Portland, but their
place of residence is unknown.
