HoUsToN's FUTURE.

demand WlUnm the next IL months
that has never before been recorded,
even in the face of the great develop
ment and growth of the city the past
five years, and with it will come an
increase of the acreage sections be-
You'd the present anticipations, is the
belief of number of the leading realty
men of the city On the inquiries that
are daily, almost, coming in, is based
the prediction, and a we'll founded
one it is, according to the variety of
the country they cover.
The letters asking about realty and
business propositions are stated to be
general, though the majority of them
are especially anxious about the bust
ness portions of the city, and many
of them give it out that they have en-.
terprises to bring with them if they
come to Houston. One of the features
mentioned in the business PROPOSE
tions is warehouses" the inference
being that plants of the East and the
North are seeking representation in
the South, in the way of branch sup
ply houses, and have chosen Houston
as the objective point.
One real estate man, who deals in
city and country property, making nei-
Their a speciality, stated that he had
received no less than a half dozen let
tiers the past week inquiring about
o;t o., he lNoh
of such places and the requirements
in the way of buildings. The nature of
the warehouses is seldom told, but the
impression is frequently left, and indi-
Gates that capacity is a prominent
matter, with location secondary.
These inquiries are always turned
to the Chamber of Commerce, the Of
ficials taking them in hand for inves-
tigation. Besides the letters received
by the hundreds of business and other
citizens, thousands of them are re-
ceived monthly by this organization.
THE fact that many letters of in
quiry daily come to men outside the
Chamber of Commerce shows that
people in all parts of the world are
interested and shows that the citizens
of Houston and the commercial Or
ganization go hand in hand in all of
their undertakings, thing that this
city is noted for.
Houston has reached the stage of
great growth and progress, too, and
despite the large force kept busy
handling literature and answering
letters about Houston, it is a hard
deal to keep right up, all of which
leads back to the realty proposition
and the demand for dirt, whether it
be in the heart of the business dis
tricts or half dozen miles into the
residence sections.
at is not unwise to say that, from
the present outlook the number and
amount of realty deals in Houston
and vicinity for the next twelve
months, will eclipse all former rec
ords, and will mean an increase in the
population astoundingly large. The
men who sell dirt, not the curb-stoners
but the men in the Offices, who are at
the throttle every day in the year, are
the barometers and they can tell you
pretty we'll what Is doing and what
the prospects are. It's not hazard
guess when we say that things are un-
usually promising, and that Houston's
future appears very very bright
