One of the representative men of
the Rio Grande country, Mr. Will

Tex., is at the' Hotel Barton: JVIr.
Kelly is a gentleman of -wealth and j
muph influence on the border, .wjiere
he settled after the closeof the Civil
war. He is heavily, interested in
silver mines in Mexico, and on the
Texas side has Jarge,- plantations j
and cattle ranches. - - 1 j
"My towrn of Brownsville," said
he, "is 'for its imp'ortance perhapsj
themost- isolated, place, , in hej
United Statesj-as we are 160 jOiile
fj$hi'the ne'arest ailn?ad,.statio1i.
The country abo.ut it, on .bothides
ofctEe Rio Grande, is in the semi
ari(l district, and often--, the lack of

plef " But" lie future O.f tke region
lo&fcs' bright, and "everybody is in.
good spirits. The outlook is-; that
our entire valley, including many;
hundred-thousand' a&es of , larid,

great rjcQ-.prpJucing. bqlts. of the
Union. Tins' year; .as my agent

twenty-two to twenty-four bags'of

Louisiana and Eastern Texas. There ;
is:nothihsr to do but to take 'the'?
water from the river and put it on
the land; irrigation is the magic
AVproV that is going 'to make this
part of our State blossom like the
