Galveston. Texas, July Ex-senator Arch
Gripnan Of BrowRwood. who has been here
attending the convention. says that there
are fine opportunities for Investment In
Texas lands. In the section where he re.
sides land has increased In value greatly
during the past few months on account OF
the excitement growing out OF the oil dis
coVeries there. In some instances land
neer Brownwood sold for as much as 5000
per acre. In the State at large there are
many places, however, where good land
can be bought at a very low figure. Tie
railroads are extending their lines in every
direction, and 1t Is only question OF time
until the entire State will be covered by
their systems. rapid increase ia the price
OF lands always follows the building OF
railroads through the country and Senator
Grinnan believes that the STATE Is full Of
opportunities where land can be purchased
ana sold again at handsome pront.
