Book excerpt: Excerpt from Missouri as It Is in 1867: An Illustrated Historical Gazetteer of Missouri; Embracing the Geography, History, Resources and Prospects; The Mineralogical and Agricultural Wealth and Advantages; The Population, Business Statistics, Public Institutions Etc; Of Each County in the State The present times are the beginning of a fresh chapter in the history of Missouri. The tide of intelligent, in dustrious, and earnest men, the rapid inauguration of public improvements and private enterprises upon a scale heretofore unknown, the employment of skill and capi tal in mining and manufacturing, the transformation of thousands of acres of the virgin soil to cultivated farms, and the rapidly growing Villages and creation of new business centers, give us every reason to date the opening of the new epoch in the development of the resources of Missouri from the close of the war. After long years of struggle, the State stands to-day redeemed from slavery and oppression, and, as will be seen by reference to the New Constitution herein, she has taken her position in the front ranks of the Free States, and now guarantees the property, protects the rights, and yields the largest liberty to all her citizens.
