10. Lath and general Wood Sawing establishments.
11. Broom Manufactory.
12. Brush Manufactory.
13. Willow Basket Ware.
14. Cabinet Ware, in all its varieties, for the home and Wes- tern markets.
MISCELLANEOUS MANUFACTURES.
It is believed that all of the following would become remunera- tive as soon as established. The demand for most of them is very great, and in many cases our citizens would insure their success.
1. Cotton Factories. The raw material can be had here on easier terms than in many places where Cotton Mills are in suc- cessful operation. The demand is sufficient to sustain at least two large establishments.
2. Woolen Factories. Wool can be purchased here cheaper than in any place East of this. The value of the wool produced in the State last year was $422,000. A great portion of this is sent East to a market, and returned to us in fabrics. It would be bet- ter to manufacture more of it at home.
3. Starch Factories. A man with a moderate capital could make a profitable investment in this business. The grain of which our Starch is made, is much cheaper here than it is in the markets where the starch we use is manufactured.
4. A Rope and Cordage Manufactory.
5. Paper Mills. A larger number of these could be success- fully established. The paper used in this city alone would keep two more good mills in successful operation.
6. Flouring and Saw Mills. An increase of these is absolutely necessary.
7. A Spice and general Grinding Mill.
8. A Linseed Oil Mill could be handsomely supported, in addi- tion to the one now in operation.
9. A Sugar Refinery.
57
WANTS, AND FACILITIES.
10. Milk, Butter and Cheese Dairies, in the vicinity.
11. Soap Factories, both for toilet and common use. An en- terprising man could make an easy fortune in Soap.
12. Potash, Pearlash and Saleratus.
13. Plumbing could be largely extended.
14. Silver Ware and Silver Plating. A large business in both could be done.
15. Upholsterers could command a fine business.
16. A City Bathing Establishment is very desirable.
17. A City Laundry.
18. Book Publishing.
19. Lithographing.
20. Engravers in Wood and Copper are needed.
21. Pottery and Stone Ware of all kinds.
22. Brick, Lumber, Stone and Wood Yards. Additional capi- tal invested in building material for sale, would induce much more building.
23. Gun and Pistol Factories.
24. Harness and Saddle Factories. The demand is greatly in excess of the supply.
25. Type and Stereotype Foundries, and Printing Mate- rials.
26. Lead and White Lead manufactories.
27. Morocco and Lining Skin Factories.
28. Lard Oil Mills. There is no better point for establishments of this kind.
29. Star and Stearine Candles. The demand for these is great and constantly increasing, and the raw material is cheap and abundant.
30. Boot and Shoe Factories.
31. Japanned Tin Ware.
32. Blacking and Ink Factories.
33. Oil Cloth Factory.
These additional branches of industry seem to be demanded by the present actual wants of our citizens and the adjacent country. A number of those mentioned in this list are, it is true, in progress here, but in such cases the necessities of the market demand a much larger supply.

INDIANAPOLIS: ITS MANUFACTURING INTERESTS,
The concentration, which we are rapidly acquiring, in Indianapo- lis, of the production and manufacture of the great leading articles in general use, will draw to our City the bulk of the interior trade of the West. This will give encouragement to other industrial pur- suits ; and mechanics, from the lanes and alleys of densely populated cities, will come here to breathe a purer air in our park-like streets, and acquire competence and wealth in the Western Metropolis of Manufacture and Trade.
T. B. ELLIOTT, W. Y. WILEY, COMMITTEE. R. J. GATLING,
GENTLEMEN, interested in any of the Manufactures mentioned in the above report, are earnestly invited to visit Indianapolis, and examine for themselves the advantages offered, in this City, for profitable investments. Our business men will gladly extend to strangers every facility for acquiring a correct knowledge of the condition and prospects of the City.

CIRCULAR
OF
THE BOARD OF TRADE
OF THE
CITY OF INDIANAPOLIS.
1
The members of the Board of Trade of the city of Indianapolis, take this method of calling public attention to Indianapolis as a manufacturing and business point. Indianapolis, the Capital of Indiana, is situated in the midst of one of the most beautiful and fertile regions of the West, and is within five miles of the geo- grapical centre of the State, and more than one hundred miles from any large city. Formerly its position was completely inland ; but the completion of the Madison and Indianapolis Railroad, in the fall of 1847, marked a new era in its history. The population at that time was about 4,000, and the town possessed scarcely any manufactures or trade. Now her inhabitants number full 24,000, and the hum of machinery in her rapidly increasing manufactures can be everywhere heard ; eight Railroads terminating at Indiana- napolis, comprising 1600 miles of track, have been completed; and a number of others are under contract, which will be completed at an early day. Of roads already finished, the Bellefontaine, Cen- tral, Cincinnati, and Terre Haute, are parts of the Great Central Through Routes, (uniting at this point), from the Eastern Cities to St. Louis, now completed, and destined to extend to the Pacific. Of the Railroads to our City that are unfinished, those of the great-
60
INDIANAPOLIS: ITS MANUFACTURING INTERESTS,
est magnitude are the Indiana and Illinois Central, and the Evans- ville and Indianapolis Roads. The former, when completed, will open up to Indianapolis an immense additional trade and travel from the West and North-West-as far as to St. Joseph, Mo., and to Dubuque, Iowa. The latter, when finished, will bring to the City a very large additional trade and travel from the South and South-West.
The completion of the above roads, will not only increase the business and the proserity of Indianapolis, but will be the means of placing our City still more permanently on the great highways of the world. Seventeen different Railways, including connections, comprising 2,800 miles of track, and having 12,000 miles of con- nections, directly centre here, making this point the greatest railroad centre in the world. They bring all parts of this and neighboring States within a few hours' ride of this City, and connect with all the important routes of trade and travel in the West. To give the reader an idea of our immense railroad advantages, we need but refer him to the Map accompanying this report and say, that the citizens of 80 of the 91 Counties in the State, can leave their homes in the morning, visit Indianapolis and attend to their business, and return the same day. The citizens also, of many of the Counties of the adjoining States, can visit Indianapolis and attend to business and return the same day. It is estimated that from three to five thousand persons visit our city every twenty-four hours, and that nearly one hundred different trains pass in and out of the city daily.
Railroads being of recent origin, are revolutionizing inland com- merce, and are turning trade and travel from their former channels. That which is best calculated to make a city a place of business, is quick, cheap, uninterrupted and abundant communication, and it is an undeniable fact, that Railroads-take them the year round-fur- nish the most constant, prompt and reliable modes of internal com- munication. It is well known, that during the past winter, when the Western Lakes and Rivers were frozen up, and the commerce of the towns and cities situated upon them was, for the time, com- paratively stagnant, business at Indianapolis was brisk, railroad communication to and from the same not being for a single day interrupted. Again, in summer, when the Rivers are nearly dry
61
WANTS, AND FACILITIES.
and impassable by steamboats, and in winter, when Northern com- munication is obstructed from snows and the severity of the climate, hundreds of locomotives, night and day, are constantly moving on the iron tracks leading to and from our City, making business at this point at all times lively and active. Such being the case, who can say what this age of steam and of Railroads is not to do for our favored city ? More than two millions of consumers can be supplied from this point with goods or manufactured products quicker and as cheaply as from any other point in the country ; such being the manifest fact, it is evident, that Indianapolis is destined to become one of the greatest manufacturing and business centres of the North-West.
The different Railroads that centre here, traverse regions unsur- passed in agricultural and mineral resources; and while they afford ready facilities for transporting goods and the products of the work- shops and factories of this City to those who need them, they also supply the means of bringing hither the raw material requisite for their production. The admitted principle in political economy, that the producer and consumer should be brought as near together as possible, must act with increasing force for years to come, in build- ing up manufactures here in the very centre of the great producing interest of the North-West. No State in the Union with equal extent of territory excels Indiana in natural resources. Her rich virgin soils, magnificent forests of timber, pure streams of never- failing water, together with her inexhaustible beds of coal, iron, marble, stone, &c., place her in reliable sources of wealth among the very first States of the Union. The City is improving with great rapidity. Capital expended in building, invested in real es- tate, and in all classes of manufactures, yields large and certain returns. As a point at which to pack pork and beef, it possesses peculiar advantages. Great inducements for farmers exist in the central parts of the State-fine lands being still obtained at very reasonable prices. Mechanics of all kinds are much needed, and great numbers can obtain immediate employment. White River, Fall Creek, and the Central Canal furnish good water power within and immediately on the borders of the City, which can be easily and successfully employed. Our climate is mild, and our City and coun- try healthy. For the reasons above enumerated, we think this place
62
INDIANAPOLIS : ITS MANUFACTURING INTERESTS,
will not only become a great manufacturing point, but must also, in consequence of its unrivalled facilities for communication, become one of the principal commercial and wholesaling cities of the West. As a place of residence, it is very desirable, being located on a dry and beautiful plain. The whole City is underlaid with the choicest gravel, which is used to great advantage in graveling and improv- ing the streets. Owing to the porous and gravelly nature of the soil, cellars can be dug from twelve to fifteen feet in depth, and re- main perfectly dry during all seasons. In this particular Indiana- polis far excels Chicago and most other Western Cities.
The streets of the City are broad, laid out at right angles, and are well shaded. The public squares are large, and the City is adorned by a number of very fine public buildings. The benevo- lent institutions of the State for the insane, deaf and dumb and the blind, are located at this place, and are an ornament to the City, and to the State which so liberally supports them.
This place is noted for its magnificent depots, especially for its main passenger station, where all the Railroads leading to the City connect. It is distinguished for its sobriety, for the prevalence of the best social feeling, and the number of its Churches and Sabbath Schools, and other moral and religious institutions. It has a larger portion of children in Sabbath school in proportion to number than any other City in the Union. It has a system of free graded schools, wherein all the youth of the City may obtain a good education ; besides these, a number of well conducted High Schools and Col- leges exists.
Other reasons might be mentioned, but we think the importance of the matter sufficiently obvious ; and we close by earnestly invit- ing the reader's aid in developing at this point the resources of the giant West.
