The bulleiing of the Municipal|
Jeague of Georgta devote much spacel
(o telling the people of Georgia :nL‘lmL;
how cheaply water powers ‘have been|
developed in Ontario and about the
jow rates charged for electric service
in Ontario, and how the farmers use'
clectric current to plow, wash clothes,

horme to find the conditions suitablo
{or a back-ground for his proposede
raid on the treasary of Georgia. On
tario is & great distance from Geor
gia and few Georyiang visit Ontario.
Thorefore, wmisstatements and half}
truths could be uttered with more!

Ividently there is nothing in the;
vesults of venttires by cities in the:
United States in Municipal Owner
ghip of Publiv Utilities that appeals:
to him. e did for a while refer to
Seattle’s plunge into the street rail
way husinegs, but when Seattle was!
forced to raise fares on its municipally!

street car company to return the
bonds paid the Street Cor Company!
and tale back the system, he was com-/
pelled to return to Ontario and its!
municipalitics, now burdened with ap-!
pailing debt because of their endorse-,
ment ¢f a ventere in the Socialistic
docirine of public ownership of pri
vate business.
The Truth About Ontario
Ontario is a long, long way from
Georgia, and the people in Georgia
could not know of the complaints of
commercial bodies about the poor ser
vice rendered, nor of the political ma
chine, throttling the energics of the
province, nor of the £70,000,000.00 of
expenditures for which the publie of
the province musi cventually be taxed
in additicn to paying éver increasing
deficiencies in operating the plants
and selling their products et less than
cost, nor of the manipulations of recs
ords necegsary to keep these deficiens
cies hidden from the people.
Therefore, lot us talk about One
tario.. One of the. greatest water
powers in the civilized world, Niaga
ra. Falls, is ot Ontario’s door. At
Niagara Palls more power can be de
voloped at less outlay tham at any
other spot in Nerth America. ,The
fow of water over Niagara lalls
compared with the flow of the streams
of Georgia, makes the stream flow in,
Georgia appear ridiculous. Tho
money necegsary to build a dam which,
1 Georoia impounds the flow of one
sall stream, would at Niagara Falls
producd, fouy ititnes as much horse
power, @nd storace dams, absolutely
necdeoary in Georgin (o hold water
for drv scasons, are upnecessary at
Nisgara lalls. In Georgia all the
wal eoipmercial waler powers are in
the hill ‘tountisy, near the head waters
of tha rivers, w v the volume of
water i 3 comnaratively small. The
girears of Georgin during dry peris
tods become small aud the develop

BATHTUBS VeRSUS AUTOS
Uncflicial reports figure that Cordele now has about
cne-ihird as many bathtubs as autes, which is quite a
gain {rom threc years ago considering the increased num
ber of autos used. We think the advance is due to a more
refined civilization we are evoiving, due of course (of
course!!) to our recentlv organized School of Plumbing
and Heating!!! Cne of the peésimists that infests the pub

em buy bathtubs but you have to get the dust off your
