= TK1-sT THAT HAS GALL.

The wholesale grocers of Galveston
deserve the admiration of every bust
ness community in the state in the
plucky and determined stand they
have taken in resisting the impudent
and inordinate demands of the Ameri-
can tobacco company. They are entitled
to the moral support Of every citizen
who abhors the brazen front OF monop-
DIV. The attitude of the tobacco trust
which seeks to force its wares down the
throats of the merchants and consum-
ers of this great state is such, if the
wires are not misleading in the tales
they tell of the affair, as discloses an
exhibition of monumental cheek and a
display OF unadulterated gall unparal-
leled in the history Of any country. Ii
the facts in relation to the matter have
been correctly reported the members
of that trust should be indicted and
placed behind the bars OF prison.
1t seems that failing in their efforts
to compel the grocers of Galveston to
buy and sell only the tobacco and cigar
cites manufactured by its members,
the trust has threatened to place its
wares in the hands OF the customers Of
| the rebellious merchants-the retail
dealers throughout the state-at such
ruinously low rates as to destroy this
branch of the wholesalers trade and TO
throttle competition on the part of all
independent traders in tobacco who
are rivals of the American tobacco
trust.
So far has the effrontery of the
| imperious combination extended that
| the dispatches tell how the president
and several leading members of the
organization have gone in person to
| Galveston for the purpose Of bulldozing
| the merchants into a compliance with
| their tyrannous demands. These monop-
olists have in effect gone into the Offices
of Texas merchants and said brazenly:
"You must sell our goods and none
other. If you don't we'll crush yor."
This is a pretty spectacle to be
Haunted in the faces of freemen.

Economic Club.

What is the Economic Club? has been an
inquiry recently made. The answer is, it
is an association that studies questions his
tOrically and scientifically and without
prejudice. The classes that are charged
with abstaining from politics are studying
politics. disagreement is not made per
sonal matter but systems arc investigated.
if the experience of Marquette has made it
certain that city should own its plant for
electric lighting the same might be done in
Owosso with advantage. If Birmingham
and Glasgow are well governed muncipali-
lies their systems are worth studying. The
last meeting of this club was at the residence
of Josiah Thompson, where municipal gov
eminent was considered. Messrs Geo. M,
Dewey and Warren Woodward taking the
leading part in the discussions. The reso-
lutions appended show the opinions of the
club regarding the changes that are needed
i'm OwOsso. The next meeting will be held
at the residence of Supt. j. w. Simmons.
Mrs. Jas. Osburn, Mrs. e. p. Parkill and
Mrs. A. Todd will present papers on
organized charities
At a meeting of the OwossO Economic
Club held at the residence of Mr.. j. Thomp-
son, Jan. 10, 1891, the following resolutions
unanimously prevailed:
1. That we are in favor of purifying and
protecting the ballot by the Australian sys-
tenn.
9. That the aldermen he nominated and
elected by the city at large.
3. That only one assessor be appointed
by the mayor and confirmed by the common
council for the entire city assessment.
4. That we are opposed to party politics
in city elections and that tickets for said
elections shall have no political headings,
and we accord with the views of the Bush
ness Mems Association upon charter revis-
ion and respectfully request our common
council to take proper measures to embody
these ideas in the revised city charter.
Respectfully submitted by the Economic
Club
