THE FUTURE OF GALVESTON

AZ this distance, and with 80 little
really definite information on which
to base say conclusions, it 10 nearly
useless TO attempt to discuss the
question OF TIE rebuilding of the city
Of Galveston II 10 likely that when
the surface debris 10 removed aud the
city is cleaned up again, 1t will be
found that the destruction to property
has not been so great as has been
reported. The ndstions will be found
intact, and many Of the buildings that
now look ss II they could never be
used again will be found to be only
slightly injured.
There are plenty of public spirited
men in Galveston who will do every
thing in their power to build up the
city again after its terrible experience.
There are men with money there, who
will spend all they have In the effort to
recover what they have lost. M one
doubts that the spirit and pluck of the
American and she Texan will come to
the aid of Galveston, and that II such q
thing be posi- BILE the city will within
the next five or ten years resume lie
old place.
But is such . thing possible. or de-
sirsble? Granted that the necessary
men and money will bs orthcoming,
granted that Galveston can command
the necessary credit 10 the money cen
tiers and a. tbs banks to enable her to
carry the enormous bonded indebted
ness already outstanding, and to float
she new loans that must be made in or
der to meet the expenses Of rehabilits-
ton. Will the city even then be able
70 recover from the blow?
IL 10 not likely. Money Will do
much, but 10 will never in itself re-
store public confidence. That Is what
will be lacking; It cannot be purchas-
ed. And the discouraging thing about
Ii is that no power can change the
direction and force of the wird, no
power can push sack the flood, no
power can keep the waters OF she gulf
In leash.
What possible protection can be
erected agsinst the recurrence OF such
tragedy They talx OF levees. Can
hey build levees eiR hteen feet high all
