DENISON!
Below wo publish an interesting commu-
nication to the farmers ot Texas from our
correspondent, II. H. Teel, in regard to
the remarkable growth and rapid develop-
ment of the
CITY OF DENISON.
A Few Facts Con-
cerning the
<iPJE <?I5V"
OFTHE
SOUTHWEST.
Her Advantages of
Soil and Climate
Unsurpassed.
Her increase in Pop-
ulation, Wealth and
Commercial Im-
portance
Truthfully Portrayed
Her Elevated Location, Natural
Drainage, Freedom From
and Abun-
dant Supply
OF PURE, SOFT WATER,
Make Denison a Pleasant and
Desirable Location for the
Home-Seeker.
:ÍM$'
Again, her proximity to the largest and
best deposits ot coking coal in the south•
west, the interminable forests of valuable
timber, mineral and geological deposits,
all within easy reach, point to Denison as
the future great manufacturing center of
the state. Its location wiih reference to
the most fruitful and productive portions
ot the state and the great markets ol the
world, cannot fail to make this one of the
best commercial points in North Texas.
A point wüich offers alike to the capitalist
and the man of limited means wonderful
Inducements to invent large or small sums
of money. 1 propose through the columns
of Thb Southern Mercury to give the
200,000 Alliance men ol Texas some faint
idea of the great inducements which this
city offers . to brains and capitul, and II
posslblo, to induce our brethren to share
In the marvelous profits to be derived from
Investments in real estate here. .Seventeen
years ago not an inhabitant, not even u
shanty stood where now the busy whee.s of
commerce and the noisy whistle of hun-
dreds of lo<comotive* are heard by ovor 10,-
C00 inhabitants.
A FEW FACTS THAT POINT UNMISTAKABLY
TO THB FUTURE GROWTH OP THIS CITY.
First, its desirableness as a place of resi-
denes, being in tho center of one of the
finest fruit and vegotuble producing sec-
tions on the continent. Secondly, It is the
gateway between the southwest, and the
Middle, Eastern and Northern States.
Again, it is the terminal and initial point
of m«re railroads than any other city in
Texa*. It is always sare to follow in the
wake of shrewd business capitalists iu the
matter of profitable investments. After a
carefnl Investigation of tLie great advan-
tages possessed by Denison. a company ol
eastern capitalists, some four months a-o,
invested 91,200,000 in real estate and for
manufacturing and improvement purposes.
Since that time the city baa been on a con-
ities hag more than doubled in value, and
notwithstanding building of all kinds and
general improvements have been fairly ac-
tive, not a single business houso or resi-
de nee can be rented here to-day. Indeed
I am Informed that many persons during
the past few months, who came here to
locate, were iorccd to go elsewhere be-
cause they c id not rent a residence at
any price, i U t here permit meto call
the attention of our Alliance brethren(wbo
have a few hundred dollars surplus) to tho
following tacts and figures. Judging tho
iuture by the past, it is sate to atllrm that
lor years to come no more profitable in-
vestment can be made in Denison real
estate. Her present outlook warrants tho
conclusion that in wraith, population
manufacturing and commercial im-
portance this city will take front,
rank among tho best and most active
manufacturing and commercial centers ol'
the land. While her real óslate will keep
pace with her growth and make lortunes
lor those who have the foresight and good
luck to invest. Farmers, look into this
matter. Buy a few blocks or lots of land
in Denison or vicinity, get a builders loan,
if needed, build a few neat cotiagos and
my word for it, the rent of the bouses will
soon pay for the improvements and the
realty will double on its present value
every five years lor the next twenty years
to come. This beats unimproved farm
land, although that is good.
REASONS FOR THK FAITH OF YOUR COR-
RESPONDENT AS TO DENISON.
She cannot fail to be healthy, being 800
teet above sea level. Her salubrious cli-
mate, unsurpassed iruits and vegetables,
make it a pleasure to be a Denisoniun
Next, her life, brick and potter ' clay, her
Hag and building stone, her completed rail-
roads, (with many others soon to follow),
reaching out their arms in every direction,
must draw to this common center the teem-
ing products of this great state.
Thcso advantages, supplemented by
an active, energetic and Intel-
ligent (cosmopolitan) population can
not fail to make this a gieatand prosper-
ous city. The following new improve-
ments arc now in the handB of parties who
will push them to completion. First, we
call attention to the
DENISON CANNING FACTORY,
which is now being erected by the citi
zone. The oapital stock of this company is
over $100,000. This is a valuable industrial
enterprise', and since it stands in tbe midst
oí the most highly cultivated and produc
tive fruit and vegetable section in the
south, it cannot fail to be a profitable in-
vestment and will add very largely to the
Industrial prosperity of the city and the
surrounding country.
THE DENISON INDUSTRIAL EXPOSITION
HALL,
which Is 00x140 feet and is estimated to
cost §20.000, will bo for all time to come a
standing invitation and perpetual at-
traction to every farmer in tho state
who desires, freo of charge, to placo
the rarest products of his (arm, orchard or
garden on exhibition, not for a week or a
month, but to remain on exhibition from
harvest to harvest. Hero also will bo col-
lected specimens of mineral, geological and
arborial products irom every part of the
state. This hall will be, so to speak, a
perpetual karporama. The building will
aleo be used as an entertainment hall. Iu
symmetry, finish, abchltectural beauty and
aesthetic taste it will lie a standing memo-
rial to ibe liberality of the donors, the
Denison Land and Investment Co.
We now como to a still grander triumph
of the Gate City's pluck aud energy,
TIIK DENISON RAPID TRANSIT RAILWAY.
This stupondous undertaking Is now
nearly completed, und will in a low weeks
be in full operation, when thousands of
visitors can ride in the splendid motor
coaches, which are now on hand, to the
principal places of Interest in the city. The
road will cost $00,000, will be standard
gauge and built with -10-pound rails, by the
Denison Land and Investment company.
A 25.00J SPINDLE COTTON FACTORY, COST-
ING £.">00,000,
Will be erected inside of 12 months. $150,-
000 of the stock is taken by cili/.ens ot Den-
ison, the balance to-wit 833!),000 (of the
stock) is held by New England capitalists.
The buiidtug will be 000 feet long and 4
stories high. Tnis enterprise is settled: it
will be built. This factory, together with
tbe superior transportation facilities, will
unquestionably make Derison one of the
best cotton markets in the south. Texas
cotton stands next to tbo .Sea Island in
quality. Tbe citizens of this slate will be
supplied by these mills with homo manu-
factures—from homo grown cotton.
A NEW STEAM PRESS BKICK FACTORY
With a dally capacity of 40.000 has just
been put la operation, (and although run
to its full capacity) Is scarcely able to
supply the home demand.
THE FOLLOWING EXTENSIVE MANUFAC-
TURING ESTABLISHMENTS,
With many others, *e are assured, will be
located here within the next 12 months. A
large boiler factory and an immense steel
rail mill, costing some $2,000.000. Tho lat-
ter, we are told, will be built and operated
by a New York syndicate, which owns
and is now building, tbe Denison and
Washita Valley Railroad. Tbe (va*t) im-
portance of thia road to Denison can only
be measured by the magnitude, extent tod
lite and unbroken foresta of valuable tlm-
\ ber through which tho road passes. Thus
I will be brought to tüe very gates of this
city the best und cheapest coal and timber
! west of the Mississippi River. Agaiu it is
estimated that the Bessemer ores of Llano
county (which aro inexhaustible in quan-
tity, yielding 71 per cent, iron) can be laid
down iu Denison for 82.00 per ton. This
being truo, Bessemer steel can be made in
Denison at a saving of $0.00 per tou over
the cost o I similar steel made in Peunsyl-
vauia. (Now add to this saving the cost of
transportation, and it will be not dlfiicult
to establish tho fact that with chcap luel,
the finest ores in the southwest, unsur-
passed transportation facilities, aud an in-
exhaustible supply of water, Deuison must
be mistress of the situation, and will sup-
ply the railroads of Texas and other states
and territories with steel and iron rails.)
hollino mills and foundries
Are sure to follow.
Tbe atteution of capitalists and man-
ufacturers in every part of tnis groat na-
tion is now beiug attracted to this city as
ono of the finest strategic points on tbe
continent as a manufacturing and commer-
cial center. (Within a few months past
Eusteru capitalists have invested over one
million dollars in Douison, thus Inaugurat-
ing a new era of commercial and industrial
prosperity.)
And still, still they come. Two large
delegations of excursionists, one composed
of capitalists and manufacturers from
Eastern States, who have just leit, after
spending $270,000 to $300000 in Deuison
real estate, the other from Iowa and Illi-
nois, will about November 1st visit Deni-
son, and investigate the Inducements she
offers to brains, musclo and capital.
Jn concluding this part of my communi-
cation, I desire to say to my brethren oi
tho Farmers' Alliance that this new era ol
Denison's prosperity is not ephemeral or
spasmodic, but permanent. Too hup h
money has already been invested to permit
tbe march of improvement* to stop or even
to lag. Hence I repeat, let every iarmerin
Texas, who has tho means, come and see
for himself. Tho best informed aud most
caroful citizens give It as their opinion
that city property, as well as fruit and veg-
etable lands in this vicinity, will appreciate
in value from 100 to 500 per cent during tbe
noxt 0 years. Brethren, don't neglect this
chance, for
fruit and vegetable culture
is more profitable than the most skillful di-
versified farming, where tho markets arc
favorable.
The soil for many miles around this city
is a rich sandy loam, peculiarly adapted to
the culture of fruits and vegetables. The
fruit and vegetable lauds in this vicinity
are equal to the eel ebrated fruit and vege-
table producing sections of California. I
might give statements from many fruit and
vegetable growers, who for a number ol
yoars have followed the buslnoss here, but
deem tbo sworn statement of Mr. F. V.
Munson, Vice-President of tho American
Horticultural Socioty, suilicient. The pro-
Ills, por acre, of his fruit aud vegetable
farm, adjoining this city, for 1887, iu won-
derful. Up to tbe present, horticulturist*
have depended solely upon tho northern
markets for tbo sale of their fruits aud veg.
etablos. Noxt year, however, tho largest
and best equipped canning factory outside
of Maryland or California will bo In full
operation, and prepared to use for cunning
purposes many hundrod thousand dollars
worth of fruits, vegetables, &o. Thus it
will be seen that Deuison will afford a
steady and profitable markot lor orchard,
gardcu and licld products.
