way official yesterday.
what IL there beside the desire OF
the human family for soft placer
asked the Gazette man.
"Oh, many things. The funniest thing
TO nv mind, however, is the artlessness
of the coast country In believing that
that section OF the state can throw
sand in the eyes OF the Interior while
they put forth and elect q commission
next year that will be for the coast
country against tho world. the flesh
and the devil. Those people down In
that section OF the state are sly, devil
ish sly, but unfortunately have only
got their heads under cover and the
rest of the state Is watching their every
movement in amusement. / think the
anlmus behind this thing was born In
Galveston, and the idea is to enlist
another section Of the state with that
section. elect two members of the next
railway commission and promulgate
rates that will operate as a restorative
to much of that coast country's de-
parted greatness so far as Its jobbing
interests are concerned.
You can remember when the coast
cities OF Texas were virtually queens
of the situation-the Galveston iobbers
hplu tntlT BDpuS anu WHITES All over
the state, because their town had the
benefit OF water rate. But, alas!
When the present rates were put on
which placed North Texas and all in
terior tobbing points on an equal foot
Ing, then the coast cities kinder got
1t where the fowl got the ak.
Ever since that day and time the
constant dream of that section has
been anything. Lord, that will restore
former conditions. But new era has
dawned, and they are not in 1t any
more.
you will understand. young man.
am not making this talk for publica
tion, but as n guarantee OF good
faith as you newspaper people term
Il.
There are several other points I
might talk to you on, but will have to
defer that pleasure until my next
visit. as there comes my car"
And the gentleman swung on to
union depot car and left the scribe In
the middle OF the narrative.
