Industrial Niagara 



is best situated, which is on the grandest scale, which is most 1903 

 unfailing? Without question that at Niagara Falls. With a 

 reservoir capacity in the Great Lakes of 90,000 square miles, 

 (twice the area of the Empire State), unaffected by the droughts 

 of summer or the freshets of winter, Niagara will stand through 

 the centuries as the emblem of mighty, unfailing, never ceasing 

 power. With this mighty giant delivering the fruits of his labors 

 at her very doors, with unsurpassed railroad facilities, with the 

 iron of Messaba, the copper of Michigan, the grain of Dakota 

 transported by water to her wharves, what city in the world can 

 offer to manufacturing interests such inducements to locate within 

 her boundaries? Buffalo's future greatness rests on no vain 

 product of the imagination but on solid, scientific facts which 

 cannot be belittled or gainsaid, and only the fleeting passage of 

 time brief as the days of a man is needed to make Buffalo the 

 great manufacturing center of the land. . . . The fable of 

 the rainbow has come true and the shimmering bow that ever 

 spans Niagara's gorge holds at either end the hoarded wealth of 

 the ages which will be poured into the lap of the Queen City of 

 the nation.
