HOUSTON FRIDAY MARCH 13
THE SOUTH MUST KEMAIN SOLID
When a democratic paper attempts to
found the alarm ngolnst the probability of
Federal Interference again In Sottthorn
elections In the event of republican suc-
cess there are not wanting thono who not
having tho good of tho democratic party
nt heart characterize such fears os
groundless
Two conspicuous Illustrations of tho con-
tinued existence of thig spirit and purpose
of interference have Just been furnished
one by tlio limine the other by the senate
thus showing that the party ni a whole Is
bent upon such a course and would not
delay In following II were the country
< jj completely under republican control The
Iiouso ban assumed lo declare the election
In 1KH In Mr Boattiers district In Louis
lana void The reason for not depriving
this Southern Stato of all representation
woa probably because tho other districts
wero not contested oh was Uoatners
But a more flagrant cane of usurpation
and Interference Is the populistrepublican
movement In the senate sciei an Invcs
tlgatlrg committee to Aiiuaina to overhaul
the entire State ele < i u en the pr > leto
of lnouliiiig Into the credentials of Senator
Morgan This Li Pie most Insol ft and ag-
gressive step yet < < nemplnted In ji jglrg

It is not difficult to Inuiglno what wouM
have occurred had not an unseated demo-
crat and an tmseated republican sltpp < t
Into tho Jclnt assembly and maintained tfc
equilibrium
It Is Impossible to escape the conviction
that tho half dosen allesed democrAts woo
for personal reasons and through personal
hltternos have refused to abide by a
party caucus are responsible larsety atd
chiefly fcr this disgraceful condition of
affairs Mr Blackburn accordlnR to all
party uajre was entitled to the suppcrt
of every democrat In the legislature He
could have be < n elected ere this and wtta
out danger of disturbance of any Mod
Had Mr Carlisle received the caucus sota
Inatlon the undivided party support woutu
have been due him Tho proceeding awl
Incidents of the past month at Frankfort
constitute an emphatic warnlnc to poai
men everywhere against fo teri2y partls a
or factional spirit If partisanship con-
tinues to grow In America It will rot only
dCBtrey parties but It will shake rer >
for and confidence in democratic r ltu
tlons Party loyilty within e t bUJh l

and proper course

Th < i newly Installed republican In tho

A PROPOSITION
The Qmstlon of Shipping Facilities and
Houstons Prosperity
To the Udltor ot The Post
Having read your article In Tuesdays
January 7j Post on tlio future growth of
Houston in which you predict that tho
prpuluiou will be 210000 and ln addition
to tho leoEons there given In my opinion
all that is wanted to verify that predic-
tion Is tho Improvement of tho water
channel from Oalvestem bar to tho head
of Long llodub near Houson
1 think 1 liae hcen Informed by the
present officer In charge of the govern-
ment Improvements at Calveston or ills
predecessor that 11 would not cost over
15W0W certainly not over 1000000 lo
complete it channel from IS to K feet of
water extending from Galvostou bar to
head of Long Bench
Just below the cor
pottto limits oi Houston whero wo have
an average depth of 2n feet of wtter now
lf the shipping could he brought to a
point to connect with tho railroads now
centering In Houston uid unite as one
point Houstons ranld lnoiense in popu-
lation and bu ness would be more cer
tainly nFMired specially so lf we could
have the railroads and water transporta
tion meet without any additional costs for
tltii > aic or wluirfnue
bill lu Wucti 1 e unversed with several
business men of the Stat and they bay
that If Houston should get tho railroads
iid water trnispniiMlnn logothor with-
out additional ch rge to the public her
future would lie assured beyond itiestlon
and her popularity In the Interior would
bo greatly increased a policy of this kind
would be very popular and would hecuiQ
inewet of the intetlir business as well ns
tmm the gient West
To carry out this object I make the fol
lowing proposition
The owners will well all tlio bayou or
river front from below HurrUhurg lo the
heael of Long Ueaclicnvering all Ihe iront
opposllo Magnolia pmk and the Hud loin
the bayou to the Southern Piclllc sloingc
switches wheielt Is said they will boui
move their nun him shops including this
bayou fmnt coat lining about ns much
as thero Is in Mugnnha park io the state
or city or any corporation prnUdcl thero
shall be no wharfage charges to tho pub
tic for 5101 per acre nrd take b mils of the
SlHte healing 3 per cent lueicst ot city
bonds belling I per cent interest nt par
or will Klve them onehalf of river trout lo
transact public business free right of
way to connect with the ships and sell
the rallroiels ail th lands they want nnd
wliete they want it for depots or their
own purines at JtOt p r are
If tho city will give a charter to build
n belt line connecting all the railroads
now terminating In Houston with tlio
gtneinl connecting depot an important
hujlnces the city can Mum the clmges to
II per cat foi transportation of goods to
nnel from couiprerst 9 weirehouncH or other
places ot business to lids connecting depot
of tie water and nillrojds which Is less
than drnyage now from the wharf to the
stores nnd Isa versa on cotton going out
Of oourso this Is baseil upon the suppo-
sition that ivarehouius and compresses
will be located on or near tho strocts
where this belt line will pass
If the city will grant this charter the
road cmi bo built In n reasonable time to
suit shipping conncthns
This lund has neon kept intact for this
purpose to f icllltulo the business Interest
of Hcuston and the tlmo tins come when
the Int rest of Houston requires a union
depot where inilroads nnd water trans
portatlon can meet Certain It is that
we must remove the through oar frm
blockading the streets as they do ut the
present time There
must be a common
place for through business to meet un1
connect for their destination without in
terfering with our local business Of
course Itoutcn in addition to the busi
ness now controlled Is Just about cnter
trg Into an era of prnspeiitv owing to
her udnntago as i sblrplnu point
