GROWTH OF TOWNS.
Trade Review (Dallas).

Trade Review (Dallas).
Every town in the Southwest is
being weighed in the balance. Push
and energy will carry some to the
zenith of power and influence, while
others irresolute, will linger and de-
cay. Those that win are in the fight
and when the days march is ended
their banners will be covered with
glory. The Southwest is a field am
ply large for the population of all
C~hristeldom, and every year thous-
ands of immigrants are casting their
lots in this favored section. The
cities that grow will watch for home
seekers and prepare to offer them in
ducements of some kind. The down
ward tendency of most towns is caus
ed by a citizenry that has little fore
sight and 40 appreciation of existing
opportunities.

The proposition of the Albuquerque
Journal to name the new state Lin
Icoln,' in case his Territory is ad-
mitted, is worth considering. Wash
i1gton is the only state that now
bears the name of an American
statesman. Under Washington Am
erican independence was established,
and under Lincoln the Union was
preserved from dissolution. No grand
err monument could be raised to the
memory of Lincoln than to give mis-
name to the state which represents
the latest development and progress
of American ideals. However, if
New Mexico doe not get into the I'M
ion until after the next Presidential
election, the Record believes it might
have a better show under the name
of the man who wrote the Declare
ton of Independence. Our next Pres
ident, Mr.. Bryan, is prejudiced in IA
vor of that name.
