Tbs Relation of Coal and iron 20 the
Growth Of Cities.
IFTTrP NO. 4

LETTER No. l.
To the Editor of the AleEandris Gazette.
All know the fortunes made 10 the
increase of city real estate values, there
fore, il ia not necessary to enlarge to
any extent on that subject. @he posi-
biilies of Greater Washington and
Greater Alexandria are self evident.
Therefore, every land owner and real
estate dealer Is deeply interested in the
wsys and means of adding TO land values
in Washington aud Alexandria. A
hundred different industries dependent
on cheap iron and coal can be brought
to Alexandria.
A reference to the increase OF land
values in and aronnd Pittsburg, Pa,
aud Birmingham, Alabama, demonstrates
what relation coal, iron and sieel bear 10
The development OF great industrial
cities. Pittsburg aud twenty-five grow
ing nearby cilies are the outgroWth Of
the coal aud iron industry in that terri
tory. Within the past eight years
city as large as Alexandria near Pitts
burg has grown into existence. OhAtts-
nooga, Tennessee, and other cities carry
the same proof in their wonderful growth.
The building Of the great new city OF
Gary, Indiana, by the United States
Steel Corporation emphasizes this fact.
The price paid for the site for that com
ing city, alone, amounted to 81, 1885,
600. Four years ago this property
Ras assts.ed at only $24S, $50.
It is said that seventy-fye million
dtllas will be expended at Gary in in
dusirial plants. II IA farther from iron
ores ana coal than is Alexandria.
Frick states that he gave Rockefeller
forty million dollars In preferred stock
and forty million dollars in U. s. Steel
common stock for bis iron ore lands, and
paid him eight and half million dollars
cash for his ore carrying. feet TO merge
The same 10 the L. S. Steel Corporation.
This gives some idea of still existing pos
sibilities.
IL! us get to work and start cOmpre-
hensive plan that will make Alexandra
in the very near future city Of one hun
dred thousand population, while the
twin great cities will grow to be TO our
great nation what London, Paris, Berlin
Vienna and other capital cities of Europe
are to their respective nations.
Nv next letter will give the cost OF
making pig iron at the nearest points to
Alexandria and at Alexandria; and will
tell abont some of the industries depen-
dent on iron. Respectfully yours,
