Rice, Mayor of the City of Houston, and Annual Reports of City Officials: For the Year Ending February 28, 1910 In this connection I desire to state that the actual value of real and personal property in the corporate limits Of Houston is about and yet we only assess same for the simple reason that we do not need more revenue for current expenses. From what I can learn and see, there is not over twenty per cent of our population that has ever been down the Houston Ship channel, not from lack Of desire, but from lack Of transportation and Opportunity. It has been suggested, and I think the suggestion a good one, that the Launch Club Of Houston inaugurate a series of trips down the channel and convey those who have never had an opportunity to see our waterway. By this method we can educate the people and Show them their Own nat ural advantages. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
