present price for while and have to quit
the business The trust was informed
that the Waco manufacturers were run
ming their own business and would con-
tinue to do So Then came the announce
ment that the Ohio collar pad manufac'
tory had been in the business eighteen
years and had succeeded in bringing every
other factory to terms or to grief, and that
the same results would follow their deal
ings with their Texas competitor. Since
that time prices have been cut down be-
low the cost of manufacture and distribu-
ton In the Texas territory, and every
month slanderous circulars are distributed
about the Waco factory.
The enormous profits desired by the trust
will be recognized when it is stated that
at the present dgures maintained by the
Waco factory only about 25 cents per
dozen profit is made, and the demand os
the trust was that about 81 should be
added to that.
The letters, kilograms and other evil
depce of the conspiracy of the trust TO
throttle Texas competition have been laid
before the railroad commission, hence the
notice that a hearing would be had June q
on this important subject.

BUDGET FROM BEAUMONT
The Day Of Cheap Lumber Is Said 10 Have
Passed Forever.
AfEw MEN OWN MOST OF THE TIMBER LAND
Twentieth Century Club Elected Of
ncers--story of "a Passenger ON the
Train that Was Held Up.

Beaumont, Texas. June 1.-THE follow
Ing from a Georgia newspaper of high
standing is connrmatory OF reports print
ed In these columns year ago:
"A few years ago, Georglas supply OF
yellow Pine was considered inexhaustible.
Now 1t is stated by good authority that it
Is nearly gone, not saw mill in the State
having visible supply of timber for
more than nine years, and many OF them
for not more than three or four years
To thinking men this Is news of striking
Importance. Just now the two Industries
that bring the most clear money into the
State OF Georgia are lumber and naval
stores The naval stores men must go ahead
of the saw mills, and 1t will only be nine
years ere both are gone. The immense
amount of capital and labor now invested
in the manufacture OF naval stores and
lumber must be turned into other lines OF
manufacturing, or both tne wealth and
population they now represent Will be lost
TO the State
Georgias timber supply is not dlsap-
pearing at more rapid rate than the
forest wealth OF Texas, nor Will the num-
Der of mills in this State assured OF a
longer lie than nine years exceed the
fingers OF one hand Thus one of the
great sources of wealth in these two South
ern States Is fast disappearing The val
liable bodies OF pine lands in this State
are In the hands OF comparatively few
men, all OF whom are able to hold them
for fancy prices. Outside of Lutcher &
Moore and the Beaumont mills there are no
millmen who may be classed us extensive
timber owners, and the holdings of the
firm mentioned above lie chiefly in Louis
lana. Huntington. the Kountze Bros, Klr-
by and Herndon are the chiefs among
timber owners, and their possessions will
not pass from them unless the purchasers
pay price that would have appeared ex-
.ravagantly exorbltant ive years ago.
This fact is OF greater interest to the
people OF the State and the entire South
west than at once appears 1t amounts to
a service Of notice that the day OF cheap
lumber has passed, never to return, The
small mlllman cutting away on mere
patch OF timber may for a year or more
sell his product at low figure, but the
number OF this class has dwindled and
they will no longer cut any figure in the
making OF prices.
Texas will, however continue for many
years as a lumber manufacturing State.
The great quantity and variety of Texas
hardwoods will succeed TO the prominent
place heretofore held by pine and the
number of factories to work these woods
into finished articles viii be greatly in-
/ creased.
