around tie limbs of the trees with
their little, beady eyes, at the

WHY TRUSTS ARE VICIOUS.


The Whole trouble with the
trusts, says the June Ainslee, Is in
the kind OF men who control them.
Trusts are the highest type of cora
nercial organization, and if they
were conducted with some con-
sideration for the pablo welfare
they would be admirable. 1t Is in
their power to give commercial
stability to transact business in
such way that there will be no
waste, and By the gigantic extent
Of their operations produce al tie
lowest possible cost. But the men

hasiness for their health, aad
though few OF them have the
conrsge to say openly, The public
be damned, +" they say it in almost
every action. The very necessities
of the positions they occupy
demanded that they be men of
8 strong and predatory type. In
applying the principles thai alone
will bring sneeess they must be
inxorable. The machine they |
control controls them, and they
must override opposition or he
crashed themselves.
There is q mistaken idea in many
quarters that they are controlled

QUE People BUSTA0T.


QUE PEOPLE MUST AOT.
There seems little doubt that the
Morgan steamship service to BRACES
will be discontinued, after one
more ship, if not at once. The
earlier our citizens realize this fact
and set plans on foot TO meet this
condition, the better it W Il be for
all concerned. If the steamer be
discontinued, the trade of this Sec
ton must for the present at least
depend upon sehooners, which,
while if does well enough in fair
weather, must be very nnsatIsfact-
DRY on account of its uncertainty
and irregnlarity, and discomfort to
orr people. II is therefore incum-
bent upon the people of Browns
vile and Matamoros 20 adopt ener-
getie measures towards obtaining
some more reliable ind secure
trade outlet. This must be either
through a deep water harbor on
this coast or by rail connection.
Deep water at Brazoe Santiago is
feasible aud should he obtained by
government appropriation. A rail-
road Will cost considerably more
and, depending upon private cap
ital, is not secure until finally com |
pleted. While all interested are
most anxious that this place should /
have rail connection, and Will at
the proper time do ali they can TO /
secure 1t, yet it is equally desir-
able that we should obtain deep +
water at Brazos Santiago, aud as
1t Is easy enough to secure govern
ment aid for such projects prnyid-
ed the right influence Is obtained,
our citizens should unite in bending
their efforts 10 that end. AS indi-
Gated IN the resolutions introduced
at tie waterways convention in
Galveston, the merits of this port

and doubtless, should t
our congressional representative be
petitioned to act in the matter, an
