In 1 01. Houston followed In 190B
and Des Jlplnes cam along In 1907,
when the scheme really began to
make progress. Galveston's reform
was Induced as a result of the tidal
wave which nearly destroyed the city
September 1, 1900. It was virtually
wiped out and seeded political, aa
well aa physical, rehabilitation. ; Its
eitlsens thought It wise to change the
