THE WEALTH CF THE SOUTH-WEST.
According to the figures of the
commercial secretaries the farm-
ers and stock raisers of Texas
are producing in round numbers
half a billion dollars' worth of
products annually. Manufactur-
ers add $10.1,000,000 more, and
7,500,000.
Then there are fisheries and vari-
ous other sources of income
which help to bring up the total
so that at the present rate of in-
crease the products of the state
should reach very soon three-
quarters of a billion.
With the opening up of new
lands, the building of new facto-
ries and the development of min-
ing and forestry interests Texas
in a very few years should pro-
duce enough to pay the appro-
priations of a billion dollar con-
gress without the aid of Oklaho-

OUR PAY ROLLS.
Weekly P*iy Roll of Texas Amounts
to
At the mast-head of a weekly
newspaper in Texas the follow-
ing significant motto appears:
•'The prosperity of a nation
depends on the volume of money
in actual circulation."
This wise expression merit s the
constant thoughtof every citizen
in Texas interested in the pros-
perity of the masses. We pro-
duce annually $490,250,000 in
agricultural products and $17,-
500,000 in inenerals, but the
value of this,mqney to commerce
depends-upon.its circulation.
The prod.ucer is a slow circu-
lator of money. The character
of his business requires few
transactions. The fanner plants
cotton, cultivates and markets
the crop; lie.is pne year in com-
pleting the transaction, and .the
proceeds are all his. The
.manufacturer buys raw materi.il
from the producer .and finishes
the product immediately; he has
completed his transaction in
possibly a day, and divides the
proceeds with a thousand em-
ployes. The factory is the heart
of commerce, and its power to
force money through the arte-
ries of trade measures opr pros-
perity. The factory is the labor
ittg man's source of rfvenue,
and the increase in the number
of factories multiplies the de-
mands for his labor. We have
in our cities a population of 1,-
500,000 depending wholly upon
pay rolls for subsistence. Our
weekly pay rolls amount to
about $5,000,000. The laborer
is vitally interested in pay rolls,
and methods of increasing our
pay rolls will be discussed at the
convention of Commercial Sec-
retaries at Fort Worth, Septem-
ber 9 10 11.

Two prominent Wall stTeet.
1 brokers, at luncheon owe day-
last. week, indulged in a series r f
recriminations about thetenden-
(cies of each to refrain from
hpending money. One said: "I
don't blame you for being close.
It is in the family. Why, 1 re-
mem ber your father ran u groce-
ry store. He was so close that if
a fly settled in the sugar barrel,
he used to catch the fly and dmro
his feet off with a broom and let
it go."
I "So?" said the other. "I re-
member when your father was u
farmer and raised l>ees. He
made those bees work hard all
day, and, not satisfied with that,
he crossed them wich lightning
bugs and made them work
nights."
"That's right," said the first,
