Texas Colonists Lecture on Immigrant Prospects in Northern Texas
A Philadelphia audience heard Garrett of the northern Texas diocese advocate northern Texas as the best region for immigrants. He described a 200 mile wide agricultural belt with rich soil and lime content, noting land near Texarkana as ideal for pioneering farmers who can invest $1000 and work hard. He warned the sober and capitalized, avoiding the poor and drinkers, and urged prudent buyers to verify land titles before moving, cautioning not to rush without counting the cost.

A comic office scene ends with a stranger deriding curiosity and insisting he knows all about Gatling guns. The devil and a Gatling gun are shown as props, while a heavy editorial piece on rifle teams collapses into the waste-basket. The stranger departs with a claim of no curiosity, and the spoof ends with the Reveille noting the piece’s ruin.
