The figures should be considered by Kansas City in connection with the idea of penetrating this rich country and seeking a jiart of its fcrade. According to Grovernor Ireland the total taxable value of real and personal property is six hundred and three millions of dollars. The land is counted afc two hundred and forty-seven millions; cattle, eighty-one millions; horses, thirty- two millions; she'ep, nine milhons; hogs, two millions. Twenty million acres are rich in minerals, and forty-six millions in timber. In 1885 over a million-and-a-quarter bales of cotton, four million bushels of wheat, eighfc mUlion bushels of com and thirty milUon pounds of wool were pro¬ duced. Since 1870 the increase of general wealth has multiplied itself four times. Labor is not hindered by cold from being employed the year round. The soil is rich and diversified, " producing wheat as California, cotton as Egypt and comas lUinuis." Yet Texas is not settled thickly. Within her boundaries are destined to dwell ofcher millions before fche centmy closes. Only one-fifth of her avaUable territory is yet utilized. The parfc of this great Soafce which invites Kansas City enterprise doej not yet furnish its proper quota to Governor Ireland's array of figures. The reason does not lie in lack of capacity, but in lack of transportation facili¬ ties. Northwestern Texas ha?, up to this time, no connection by raU with the rest of the world. Its easiest northern outlefc is by Kansas city. The herds of catfcle, flocks of sheep and fields of cotton, which now constitute its resources, would contribute a bulk of business within fche first year of direct connecfcion with Kansas Cifcy which would" mark a new era in our comtner- cial progress; After & few more years the Ihdiati territory wiU be opened
