Excerpt from A Few Suggestions Respectfully Submitted to the People of Texas, Her State and Railroad Officials: As Well as to Those Who Have Interests Here and May Contemplate Making This State Their Future Home, and to All in General Who May Be in Search of Homes and Profitable Investments
Suggestion No. 1.
Speaking of railroads, it has often been asked, "What would State or people be without railroads" Very true. It is also said, and believed by many: "What would railroads be without people and State" Perhaps "honors are easy" on this score.
No. 2.
Individuals, and especially capitalists, seldom act solely for sentiment or public spirit. As a rule it is business, yes, for cold business purposes. Did not the State of Texas offer to the capitalists a good field for investment, we would to-day be without railroads and many other good things which we now have.
No. 3.
The old saying that "a cat can look at a king" leads us to remark that a poor man, "a man of the people" and one uneducated, might, perhaps, suggest a thought that the wealthy and educated, as well as those holding high positions both for State and railroads might do well to at least consider.
No. 4.
Railroad officials, and especially those holding office, should not be too sensitive, and a little occasional friendly criticism, instead of being considered offensive, might (as it has in many cases) prove profitable both to those criticised and the interest they represent. The people and the press should be invited to speak to both State and railroad officials in plain language. Those holding the positions referred to are neither children nor old ladies, and should not be treated as such.
