I touud Mr. Goodnight a very liiiulli
eilt, allabli! gentleman, moiled and 1111:1
humui?, i'.. press m;,' his opinions trecly
whtu asked for thein, "out not otherwise.
It wa difficult to belieyy 1 ws in the
proi'nci! of "the kinjj ol the eutllo nu n,"
who talked as pK'u.-nntly and en.tUy as
though we b;ui been acquainted for years.
Without taking space for a dciaib.il con
versatiou t which I took n.ites, I tound
Mr. tloodnifrtil'ij views sr.l Mantiaily a
follows: A few years moc it was a i arc
tiling for cattle or "e )" men to own thcii
patr.rc, tin; isos: of theni believing that
the western pmti'V nfihis state especially
to be unlit fur cultivation and that H
v'ltiM never tie h ttled or li-n'c.
'rhccoi:slriicti on if railroads made it cany
ot acce-:!ioiisan.i-i of trivelera from the
idder slates poured lands were ridicu
lously lov, mid individual und the rail
roads st.irted I arms at 1'tirJ, Lorraine,
Marienfeld, on the T. & 1 K. P.., and in
Crosby t'o., r.tid other points away from
railroad. To the surprise of nearly tv-
eryono ihtsi; were in the main suect.-'.-ful
experiicentH, and new towna like Abilene,
(toloru do, Uiff Springs and Many others.
cprung up almost musically, cuu-ing .still
greater immigration and a mil! larger area
uf fenced and cultivated lands.
The wiser cow men, like Mr. Goodnight
and otheis, saw ihe m.-vltblle result and
began to purchase ate! lent - t!,t -Ir pastures.
hciuij laughed at by otbi i- aIh thought
' theic win noi poiiiir ie much ui a
(dower after nil."
IJutthe fencing by ImUi t'miuns and stock
men continued, including many i.ti'.uite
pa.sturt'j, springu anvl water coursrH, until
the'Tiei! range men" liccame alarmed, and
either themtelvi. r thr ui'h agents cc.m
meucei dciitroyin.z fence. Once. be,jun,
the evi! grew ;i.n l tended, cutting and
destroyinif the t'eiicf-tif th': smaller farms
where the poor prtVxt at Ilrst i.sigued
wad wholly wanting. i"l preseul laws

most stnnfjret t ai.d friii ient e'laracter are
now twing comid' red wi'.h tit;; prospect
ol bwx.mintr. !a Im-Ioih thr- vh of vhis
uiintb.
"UtJt," I Impuirt'd. "iil public K-nt!-lLerit
sustain such laus, Mr. GovKtnijjht ?"
"It will, must asnrcdiy; and after we
Lave lieul a few of thcae rascala to the
pcniU-ulniry for from thr :e to ton year,
the fence cutting will i:ne and jlaw und
orcer will prevail in this as in ther re
Pliect.'' "What then V

paturef. the free range mm will largely
disappear, c.apifal will tocccMra'e snd the
business w ill b- conduolcJ more pleasant
ly, ysl(;nis.ticil!y nn.l will e;Ual profit."
. . In talking with other tiiteliicnt stock
meu and others f found substantiully the
same rpinifjiis prevailed, and they believe
that within a short time this evil will div.
appear ami i!k; supremacy !' thi; law
maintained.
The growth ufTtXto La- !nei: simply
won Jeitnl, and without n parellcl in the
hihtory ofj any o'.her of the ftates. In
16W the population was 00,000; 1M0, 212,
' 000; 1810, 010,000; 1870, 81S..170; lO,
1,502,574, and cow over 2,000,000, wi'.h an
immense tide of immigration pouring tn
from all part fd thn Union, (.'fthiornia
and Minnesota included.
State lands have advanced lioin 50 c-.-m
to $2 and within a year or two, and
railroad lands have advanced Irom $2 to
30 within the last ninety day. Private
landu have "jumped way up," and ftluiost
fabulous talcs are to!d of increase in value
of city and town property. One jjentlc
man in Abilene bhowed mo a lo! that was
at first sold for $250. later he bought it for
$3,200, told it for $4,200, and six weeks
after offered $5,C00, bat could not get it
for less than $5,500, and yet Abilene is less
than three years old. At the hotels, on the
care, everywhere, the talk is nearly all
about lands and lots, farms that arc being
opened up, towns improving, and strang
ers are bewildered by the talk of land
agents, and every man in Texas i a land
agent, I believe, and scarcely knows what
to do.
He may think prices are inflated, as is
no doubt the cam in some instances, and
hesitate. Meantime some "venturesome
party" lakes the land and pots!bly sells it
again at an advance before te has decided
to buy or what to d . As in one cast: that
came to my knowledge. A man was
offered a tract of land at $5.00, thooght it
high, waited anotVr bought it, and nuai
be? cit thrr. ccald tot grf It tt $7.50, al
within ten days. 100 acres near Abilene
was offered me at $5 in September laHt 1
can't buy it for $10 now. Of courno
everyone does not "strike it rich" hire.
Some pay too much, get poor titles or
poor lands, aud the stranger should re
member that ail men are not honebt in
Texas more than elsewhere, that there are
no keeuer, uhrewdcr men to be found any
where than hero; he must not be too cred
ulous uor too distrustful, but uc his own
good juJgme'it, observe cooly. carefully,
rapidly; if ho tecs a good bargain, take it,
if His not good, let it alone, no mutter
how glibly Messrs. A. Ji. A C. may talk.
Fiut I leiir J am becoming tedious, and
with a hasty glance at somo of the towns
will close.
Abilene, now the county seat of Taylor
county, is still progre.-siiig, and a rapid
growili is predicted for thu current year,
which will no doubt be realized, ihe
people will not fjlcrato vice or Imunrali -ty,
public, sent:ment toiug decidedly the
other way and are aiming at a solid, per
manent growth, with perhaps a lilllo too
much conservatism ; but her citizens are
by no mean asleep, and the Report' r is
doing splendid work in keeping her merits
before this people stranger in particular.
The tamo snap, push and brag which
your correspondent observed in Colorado
on a former visit is still plainly visible,
and now buildings o! n permanent charac
ter are being erected, streets graded, water
works to cost $125,000, aud a hotel to cost
10,000 contracted for, with numerous
itker improvement "in sight" or on pa
per.
The Clipptr continues 4o Uourith and is
not tt all slow about miming the merit of
this thriving city and i well patronize J.
The colony at .Marienfeld l apparently
in a l-.iunshing condition, and tee colo
nists have perhaps 1,030 acres in winter
wheat which, or so much as I could see of
it, looks nicely. Father Feters, who has
charge of tho colony, was elated and firm
ly believes that his people have acted
viscly in establishing themselves at that
point.
Denton, much like Ottawa as to the
character and spirit oi her people, is pro
gressing moderately, the most noticeable
improvement being a $00,000 school
house nearly completed, and which will
resound with the hum of many children
within the next six weeks.
Col. D.:na7an and family are well und
delighted with the country and with the
people, and the fi&tne may lie said of his
son Noah and bis tamily.
The Monitor and the Chronicle are both
flourishing, the competition between them
havipg a heal: by effect m both.
It would be unfair to close this letter
without saying that the railroad compa
nies make it a point to extend every pos
sible courtesy to all excursionists, and that
the officials whom we met. especially Dr.
J. E. Ennis. II. A. Fisher and J. C. Bar
ber, Div. !?upt., together with (Jol. Abrams
and V. E. Rocsler, of the land department,
were each and all solicitous tor the weltare
and comfort of the party and at all time
ready to give us any information in their
power. II.
