Henry Fews, the negro who Satur day night shot and wounded Will Solo mon, Jr., and Charles Adams, Jr., In Macon, and wjio came near being mobbed, was brought to Atlanta Sun day afternoon for safe keeping and Monday Is lying In a cell In "mur derer's row” on the fifth floor of the Toner In a dying condition. The prisoner has four knife wounds rlous business proposition,' and facts bearing on the subject as applied to lo cal conditions and elsewhere have been demanded. ‘I submit some facts herewith, and the advocates of municipal ownership, so far as my observation and reading have gone, have always been willing to face facts—Indeed, have wielded them as their most effective weapon. "But this question Is not solely a cold business proposition. This coun try Is pledged before the world to dem ocracy In our own peculiar local self- government form, and future steps of such magnitude as that under discus sion should be squared with Its princi ples and Ideals before the question of 'business’ should be considered. It Is on this conjectural ground that the op ponents of municipal ownership plant themselves, crying that municipal own ership will breed political corruption and contract the Held of private enter prise, and lead to Socialism, etc. it will have Just the opposite effects on his body, Inflicted during the trouble in Macon, and each of them serious, for two reasons': First, on "the negative) It Is believed b® will live but a short side. It will remove from the arena of city politics the Influence of private In time. The negro sank Into a stupor Sunday night nnd during Monday morning his mlml wns wandering. In his delirium he expressed the thought that he was still In Macon. Notwithstanding the fact that the wounded negro appears to be gradually sinking to death, hs has not received medical attention. His gaping wounds i have not been dressed, even with so much as a piece of ordinary court plas ter. When Jailer Chastain was asked Monday morning If he had sent for the county physician 6r as to whether the physician would come to the Tower to look after the negro, he replied: i don't know." People In the Jail, who had seen the negro, agreed his condition was desper ate, but no one seomed to know wheth er nn effort would be made to save his life. The negro has one ugly slab wound In the top of the head, two In the back, and one several Inches In length on the left leg. One of the "back wounds and the one In the head are believed to be the worst nnd responsible for the ne gro's present condition. The prisoner Is In solitary confine ment.

Citizen and His Duty. "In the second and more Important place. It will call the citizen to his duty In politics, and develop the suffrage, The great inass of the people are not dishonest. The thousands of readers of your paper know this—they will not sell their vote. Bift the people are apathetic, and Indifferently allow them selves to be fooled by those who are Interested. The only way to make a boy a man Is to throw responsibility upon him and make him think and act for himself. The only way to develop democracy Is to educate the suffrage through responsibility. But to facts. 8oms Cold Figurss. A table of 48 cities of Great Britain shows that >5 of them made a net profit out of municipal street car lines rang ing from 8283 to 11,290,000 annually; the total net profit of the 35 cities be ing 83,823,885. out of which 11,090,200 was contributed to taxation. The re maining eleven cities of the table suf fered a net annual loss of 3142,000. In Glasgow, where the net profit amount ed to 31,290,000, the car system trans ported 57,000,000 passengers on a cent fare. Sixty per cent of Its passengers paid a two-cent fare, 30 per cent a one-cent fare, 8 per cent paid a three- cent fare, and 4 per cent paid a flve- cent fare. "The average cost of water In In diana under private ownership was re duced by public ownership from 39.75 to 34.88. In Illinois, from 38 to 35.33; In Massachusetts, from 37.25 to 85.75; In Texas, from 316.20 to 39.25, and In Washington, from 317 to 810. "In 1003 Manchester, England, made a profit for the city of 3350,000 while furnishing gas at 68 cents per thou sand: Birmingham, a net profit of 3280,- 000, and Belfast, 3103,000 on gas at 60 cents per thousand, and Nottingham made 385.668 profit while charging only 52 cents per thousand. Elsotric Light Cost. "In ten cities of this country operat ing their own system of electric light ing, there was a reduction In tgie^pst of lights per arc yearly ranging from 840 to 3295. Aurora, Illinois, ons of the cities In this list, reduced the cost per arc from 3325 per year under private ownership to 361 per year under com plete public ownership. Already In Great Britain 155 cities own and oper ate their own electric plants, and there are about 200 other cities entering upon the construction of municipal plants. "The foregoing figures are taken from a book on Municipal Ownership, writ ten by Justice 8eabury, of New York. "There ore several general consider ations which Indicate that municipal ownership would reduce the cost of operating public utilities. For Instance, under public ownership there would be undisputed monopoly and a consequent cessation ef the costly war forever raging between public Interests and irtvate monopoly, and between con flicting and partial monopolies. Again. saving Is possible under municipal -..nershlp and operation, where all the public utilities are owned by co-ordi nating them; frequently waterworks, gas and electric lighting plants can be operated together with economy. Where they are In private hands there Is cer tainly 'economy' In allying the differ ent Interests of the gas and electric lighting systems, that they may evade the 'annoyances* of competition. "This was done In Atlanta when the owners of the gas and electric com panies Identified their Interests by an exchange of stock. "It seems that Atlanta now has an opportunity to treat Advantageously with the gas company; and there Is a new lighting and heating company owning a contract for thousands of electric horse power, clamoring for franchises, without which their power Is of little value. Are we going to sit supinely by and see millions slip thrpugh our fingers as we did a few years ago when we allowed the street railway company to grasp from with out our reach 37,000,000 In which we all had an Interest, snd thereby deprive us of the greater heritage (unless we buy It back) of an opportunity to develop our citizenship In a broader partner ship of society? “J.

Pope’s Mother Pays Her Son’s Shortage and He Is Released from Jail.

The finance committee of the city council spent three hours and a half of fruitless labor Monday morning trying to reach an agreement with Mayor Woodward about the settlement of the outstanding indebtedness of $40,000 for the Washington street viaduct, the South Pryor street school and the south Boulevard underpass. The mayor finally agreed to let the payment for the latter two Improve ments go over until next year If the committee could clip enough money from other departments to pay the bal ance on the viaduct, $19,760. Of this amount the committee found where It could rake together $14,000, but \Vlll have to think until Saturduy afternoon before the other money can be found.

Woodward Holdz Power, The committee Is • unanimous In thinking that the mayor's position Is Inconsistent, but they are Just as uni form Int heir acknowledgement that he has them In a position where they can not help themselves. "He Just hales to give In after he has once said he would retire from of fice with a clean balance sheet," aald one of the committeemen.' Although the deliberations were fruitless they were not lacking In life. From the first, heated arguments were the order of the meeting. Alderman Qullllan was saying that even If the town should go dry Its financial condition would not be af fected so much as the mayor seemed to think when the mayor took part in the dlspusslon for the first time. '• You) can close ’em all up If you tfant to,'" sa)d his honor. “One of the pa pers has said that this temperance agi tation has piqued me, but It hasn't at all.’’ It seemed to be the opinion of all the committeemen and the mayor, too, that one of two things has got to happen pretty soon—Increase the city tax rate or increase the assessment. It was also the sense of the commit tee that the state rate should be de creased, as Atlanta was already] paying at least one-ninth of the taxes of t\ie state. Mr. Woodward said that he had called up Chief Joyner, but that the next mayor was in Dallas, Texas, at tending a convention, and that he had not had an expression from him about carrying over some of the debts of the present administration. It looked to him, he said, like, they just tried to see how. much they could pile up on him wh8n he took the mayor s chair. When the committee took up the apportionment sheet as agreed on It found where It could clip down the va rious departmsnts like this: H6w to Cut Expsnsss.

London, Oct. 8.—A dispatch to The Times frdm Tangier says: “At Harakesh the representative of an important German firm was dragged off his mule by followers of Maelan and forced to parade the streets bare foot, while his native servant was se riously wounded for being in the em* ployment of a Christian. “The German consular agent was at tacked at the door of the official resi dence of the governor of Marakesh and beaten about the head In the presence of the governor’s soldiers.
