hoped that the old-time spirit would

Reviewing the history of the men of
the city who used to speculate in cor-
ner lots and never assist in securing
railroads and factories, Captain Pad-
dock said that the larger number of
them had been compelled to pay their
vendor lien notes through the bant,
iruptcy court while those who had en-
couraged industries had amassed weatth
and prospered In proportion as they
had helped build up the town. He ra-

from a humble beginning of a car-

and with only $125 in cash up to its
present proportions of one of tbs
largest of its kind in the Southwest.
Mr. Axtell urged that the attention
of the people be turned to the manu-
facture of such articles as could be
produced from Lue raw material at our
doors, thus saving freight two days,
and also to those things which are
most needed by the pop e of this ter-
ritory. Cotton mills, wagon factories
and other similar industries were
among the ones he thought could be
made to go in Fort Worth.
William James, harness manufac-
turer, said that the united pulling of
Fort Worth people brought him here
several years ago, and that his busi-
ness had paid well from the start. He
said that he could make better har-
uess than speeches, but he occupied the
platform long enough to tell the audi-
ence that every man who owned prop-
erty in Fort Worth could wel afford
to place into this corporation for get-
ting more factories at least 20 per
cent of the value of that property. He
believed a tannery was one of the
most feasible Industries for Fort
Worth, and said that one could bo very
easily secured if the people were will-
ing to go after it.
Captain B. R. Paddock, secretary of
the Board of Trade, says that the old
Fort Worth way of giving bonuses to
railroads and new industries was for
the big-hearted itizens to ask: “How
