There hqs been in progress in Texus
for some time a widespread discussion,
fostered chiefly by The Texas Weekly,
of the advisability of doing more things
for ourselves nnd for eaeh other here
at home and less for people on the
other side of the ocean. The collupse
of the foreign market for cotton has
brought forcibly to our attention how
hcompletely our prosperity depends upon

But the mer-
chant also has another relation to this
whole matter, and it Is of this other
relation that I wish chiefly to speak
here. Many of the manufactured pro-
ducts for which it Is proposed to ex-
pund the Texas and Southwestern
market are goods which must lie dis-
tributed through the merchants. Again
let me say that I do nof mean the dry
goods merchants only, hut merchants
of all kinds. If thefe Is tobe a greater
sale of Texas-made goods In Texns It
is the Texas merchants who must sell
them. For this reuson If seems proper
that the President of the Texas Retail
Dry Goods Association should partici-
pate In this discussion to the extent of
calling its importance to the attention
of the merchants of Texas generally.
First of all, let me sn.v that It is
fortunate that the discussion In Texas
has not taken the form of a narrow-
demand that Texas iieople shall buy
Texas-made goods merely because they
are made In Texns. Very few iteople
buy goods for such a reason nlone, and
certainly nobody could expect the mer-
chants of Texas to attempt to sell
goods on that basis alone. But It is
a fact that there Is much good mer-
chandising being produced in Texas
which has not as yet found a very
wide market within the State. I doubt
very much that u majority of the
merchants of the State realize how
much such good mrechnndise of almost
every kind is being manufactured in
the State, and being offered at prices
