Fort Worth cotton mill to rise as Texas wears dry spell

The article notes plans to start work Monday on a Fort Worth cotton mill sized 300 by 54 feet and discusses broader Texas economic sentiment. It mentions railroad contracts in progress on the San Antonio and Aransas Pass line, optimism for a bumper cotton crop, and local civic push for unity and enterprise. It also references political chatter about Blaine, Harrison actions in Chicago, and Kentucky prohibitionists entering the race, with Texas Democrats lukewarm about their ticket and preparations for a Fourth of July celebration.
