 shown a greater love and a greater patriotic spirit for her country than the 

 marvelous Commonweal tli of Louisiana, and she bids a most cordial welcome 

 to all who are similarly imbued; to those who seek and are willing to embrace 

 Opportunity; to those who believe in Unity of purpose; to those who seek 

 Independence in its broadest sense; to those who believe in Stability and pro- 

 gress; to those who seek a location to engage in any line of Industry; to those 

 who wish to come among us as builders of a Greater Louisiana, she offers her 

 matchless Advantages; to those seeking a location where Natural Resources 

 are unexcelled, and where the richest Agricultural lands on this continent may 

 be found, and last, but not least, to all who love the United States of America, 

 revere its institutions, honor its flag, respect its name, rejoice in its proud 

 history, in its unsullied Liberty, in its glorious past and the promise of its future, 

 this marvelous Empire of the South and the Gateway of Trade for the Mis- 

 sissippi Valley extends a most cordial and generous invitation.
