Post. The Post has the field
of morning journalism to itself
in Houston, and backed as it is
by abundant means there is no
cogen reason why it should
not prove success. If it gives
the news, and plenty of it, in a
fresh and palatable shape the
people will buy the paper and
read it. People nowadays do
not buy papers simply because
they belong to this or that par
ty. The Galveston News makes
no claim to being party paper
yet everybody reads it.
