More About the WaterwOrks
and Electric Light Question.

Editor HE2ALD: It is claimed
By the opponents Of municipal
ownership that this city is not able
to build light and water plants.
With an assessed tax valuation
of million AID half dollars this
city can be bonded for $50. 900.
To provide for interest and sinking
fund the city would have to pay
about s., 900 year. There can be
no serious doubt of its ability to do
this.
1t is the experience of almost
every city the country over that
these plants are paying invest
ments; it is the belief of all that
hardly an investment is to be found
where the return on the money is
so great. If proof Of this was need
ed. we have it right here in the
determination shown By the gentle
men seeking a franchise for these
utilities-for if they don't know
good thing at first sight it would
be hard to find those who do.
While these same gentlemen vehe-
mently assert that the city cannot
pay 5000 a year by way of inter
est, they are equally certain it can
pay 81 $50 by way of toll to the
corporation asking, ay, demanding,
that the franchise be granted them.
Let US see who are the chief
movers in this franchise question.
They can be numbered on the fin
gers of one hand Apart from some
stock in the rice mill, am reliably
informed that at least two of these
gentlemen have no property inter |
ests in this State, in this County, |
or in this City. If this be fact,
and it appears to be, I fail to see
how they can pose as leading citi-
zens'' of this place. This, however, i
is matter of opinion, and every
man is entitled TO his. These gen
tIemen claim that 5095 of the tax
payers are represented III -t tIeaii Pc (
tition Aetiug this to be fact,
dmfcnng that even so per cent of
he tax payers are SO represented,
What of the other halt? Have they
10 voice when it comes to giving
way the city's last and most valu-
bic source of revenue? Are they
lot entitled to a hearing when they
'rotest against what they look at
S little better than robbery?
If this franchise is granted, thus
hrowing away the city best hope
or raising funds for the city use.

BROWNSVILLE IS LND/G-
MINT.

There seems to be an impression
at Austin, which the press bureau
there has spread over the state,
that the fragrant outrage upon
Brownsville last Monday night
was of small Importance, being
looked upon rather in the light OF
a drunken riot or spree on the part
of the negro soldiers, in which
they undertook to shoot up the
town" that all is quiet now under
the control of the officers at Fort
Brown and no further danger
threatens, and SO no necessity
exists here for outside aid or pro-
lection. This impression comes
from the Office of Adjutant Gen
eral Hulen, who bases his opinion,
without doubt, upon reports sent
from Fort Brown rather than upon
those sent by the people of this
city. Yet the facts are that the
press reports sent from here to the
state dailieS have been very con-
sentative. All OF Brownsville
agrees that this is true. 1t is
doubtless entirely natural that the
officers at Fort Brown should see
the matter in a light that would be
favorable TO the soldiers and mimi
mize the importance of the matter.
No imputation is intended against
the veracity of the officers, but
that they may be naturally biased
anyone must admit The mere
fact that the commanding officer,
who was asleep when the assault
occurred, admits that there were
about twelve of his men implicated
N the crime, while reputable par
ties who stood upstairs in house
Ttlst across the street from the
house first attacked saw plainly by
she light of the street lamp that
there were at least eighteen or
twenty soldiers doing the firing,

this city must have, and have al
an early day? Where, indeed, but
by piling taxes up, and up, til
they reach that point when every
tax payer will curse the day the
city council so generously gave a
foreign corporation property from
which the city could have had the
money required to build sewers,
/ grade the streets, and at the same
time keep taxes at a moderate rate.
That these are truths We have
only to look at other cities to be
convinced; those owning their
plants, and those owned by private
corporations; and it will be seen
that in the first named the tax rate
is low, the service and revenue al
together satisfactory; while in the
last named the taxes are exorbitant.
the service abominable.
If the large property holders in
this city are content to see taxes
reach an enormous rate in order
that private cor poration may have
its great and constantly growing
profits turned into its treasury,
then l, who have but a small in
terest, must per force submit but

The idea that this was a drunken
riot should be dismissed once TO
all. There is plenty Of evidenc,
that it was a premeditated pic. tt
massacre the families of certain
citizens, including women and q
number of innocent little children
and to take revenge upon the sa-
looms which had declined to serve
the negroes with white customers.
In fact, if one may believe in
formation contained in a special
dispatch from Niobrara, Nebraska,
published in the Houston Post and
Galveston News, this assault was
really premeditated before the
Twenty-ffth Infantry left Fort
Niobrara for Texas. According
to the Posts special, which is
signed by one T. R. Porter, the
men of this regiment were incens-
ed against the white people of
Texas because of the alleged in
tention of the Texas State troops
to use ball cartridges on the negro
soldiers, if they came to the en-
encampment at Austin, and swore
that they would get even with
Texas.
While this report may or may
not be true, it may be stated as
fact that the officers commanding
this regiment evidently anticipated
trouble, if the negro troops were
stationed in Texas, from the mere
fact that a letter strongly protest
ing against their being sent here
was sent by the said oficero to the
war department. This letter was
published in the Army and Navy
Journal and hence is matter of
public record.
And hence arises ground for
placing the blame for this mex
outrage against the state
of Texas, where it probably be-
longs-with the national govern
ment officials at Washington.
Z powins fully that trouble was
likely to arise andlii,Xes Of hmeri-
an citizens probably be sacrificed
hereby, yet the war department
persisted in carrying out its fool
hardy plan.
But perhaps not all of the blame
les at Washington. Confessing
IS they do that they.feared trouble,
f these troops were brought here,
we're not the officers at Fort Brown
:ulpable in allowing the men the
liberty they enjoyed previous to
he outbreak, with free access to
heir weapons at will? Complaints
lad already been made by the
mayor and other citizens to the
commanding officer of disorderly |
conduct of some and attempted
outrage by one of his men. Yet,
,nowing that there was hard feel
ng OH the part of the soldiers
Igainst the town people the officers
ook no extra precaution to pre-
-ent trouble.
THE HERALD has remained quiet
regarding the culpabili-
y of the officers at Fort Brown,
nut since it is so apparent that
General Hulen and probably the
authorities are being
,uided altogether by Major Pen
oses reports, while ignoring the
demands of Brownsville for pro-
ection and aid, made through a
of twelve of our most
'rominent and conservative citi-
ems, it feels called upon to speak
f it.
The state of Texas ignores the
ituatiou at Brownsville, apparent
Y regarding our people as a lot of
lily, hysterical, timid creatures.
