The citizens of New London, Mo.,
recently declared against municipal
ownership by a vote of 100 to 2. Thus
again do we find the people deprived
of their rights by a corporation ridden
majority.

We do not credit the report that New
York intends to place its most accom
plished bunko steerers in the pilot
houses of the municipal ferry. It is
more likely to get its helmsmen from
the League of American Wheelmen.

An Inquirer wants to know why n
professor of Latin s and Greek should
not become a capable superintendent
of a municipal cemetery. We see no
good reason why he shouldn't, except
that his familiarity with dead lan
guages would be apt to put him on
such chatty terms with his tenants
that he would neglect his business.

A friend of ours has discovered that
this talk about depreciation in street
car lines is all tommy rot in so far as
the crosstowu lines are concerned any
how. It is a well known fact, he says,
that these lines never run down. They
run across. We respectfully submit
this argument to their honors the city
fathers.

Without wishing to be at all invid
ious, we would call attention to the
interesting acrostic furnished by the
Municipal Ownership Bubble, which,
strangely enough, signifies the ulti
mate ownership of public utilities un
der the municipal ownership idea. Try

A Detroit alderman wants Detroit to
go into the making of bricks. In a
recent speech he declared that “we
are in the grasp of the brick trust,
when we could reduce prices 100 per
cent if we could manufacture our own
brick.” It Is a pity the learned gen
tleman could not have figured out a
reduction of 110 per cent, for then De
troit could have made bricks not only
for nothing, but coined a premium of
10 per cent as well. The free coinage
of bricks would be an interesting eco
nomic diversion. •

A request for the last annual report
of the municipal electric light plant in
a Michigan town of less than 2,000 in
habitants elicited from the manager
the laconic reply, “About three thou
sand in the hole last year.” The sltua
tion can be relieved, however, by the
prompt action of the common council
in passing an appropriation of §3,500
for the purpose of the hole on behalf
of the park department, thus showing
a profit of §SOO on the books of the
lighting commission.

Rev. Dr. Fourthly was reading the
evening lesson from the book of Job,
says the Chicago Tribune.
“ ‘Yea, tiie light of the wicked shall
be put out’
At this instant by one of those in
explicable accidents that sometimes
happen all the electric lights went out,
leaving the church in total darkness.
“Brethren,” said Dr. Fourthly, with
out a moment’s pause, "in view of the
sudden and startling fulfillment of this
prophecy, we will spend a few min
utes in silent prayer for the electric
light company.”
