The police of Chicago were np---er.seJ
in the last elections to pay the ex
penses of the municipal ownership
campaign. This is another point hi
favor of a comprehensive system of
public ownership. After awhile, with
the motonneu, conductors, watermen,
gasman, ditch diggers, linemen, elec
tricians, and so on. to assess for sim
ilar purposes, the? public will doubt
less enjoy free elections. Cue might
almost hope that such a fund as this
would wax so great that after elections
are over there would !>e a balance left
to declare a municipal dividend with.
The byproducts of the municipal own
ership idea grow dally more and more
Interesting, not to say alluring.
* *
It is nonseuse to sar that municipal
ownership breeds socialism. On the
contrary. It Is driving people back to
Individualism. In some European
cities people who used to patronize the
trolleys now walk because they wish
to get where they nre going along
lines of least official resistance. And
In Valley City, N. D.. the quality of the
service of the public gas plant has
driven a number of business men to
Install gasoline lighting systems of
tbeir own on their premises.
Muncle, Ind.. has abandoned her
lighting plant, b'uf consoles herself
with tbe thought that her bonds re
mate. As the poet saiU. or would have
said If be had thought of -its:
OM ties aro lurrd to aevea
Other ties endure forever.
The city fathers of Brunswick. Ma,
have Just done a good stroke of busi
ness la selling Its lighting plant for 35
cents on the dollar, taking pay in
light and water. It Is fortunate it
wuen’t a municipul bakery. It would
be bard to i>ay for that by sending
large drafts of rhubarb pie and cream
cakes to the city treasury, to say noth
ing of the risk Brunswick would Incur
of a sudden attack of civic indlgesttaa
running into chronic appendiettl: from
overindulgence in doughnuts. Opera
tions upon the body politic are danger
ous thing., since the patient is apt to
experience ill effects from taking go .

High Praise.
A story told by John Ross Dix In his
"Pulpit Portraits” shows how strong
a current of life ran in the velus of
Dr. Lyman Beecher when he had
passed the allotted threescore years
and ten.
When about seventy-five years of
ago, he spent a fortnight in the eastern
part of Maine. A party of gentlemen
nt Calais went with him some thirty
miles up a series of lukes to Indian
territories.
When about to embark upon a chain
of lakes In the birch canoes, the In
dian guide, Etieuue, rather objected to
so old n man attempting the adven
ture, fearing that he would give out.
The doctor paddled with the best
of the youngsters; cuught more trout
than all the party together and re
turned each day from the various
tramps in the lead; ate his fish on a
rof*k, with a sea biscuit for a trencher
and lingers for knives and forks; slept
on the ground upon hemlock brunches
under the tent, and at length the In
dian guide went from the extreme of
depreciation to the highest •expression
of udmiration in his power, saying:
“Ah, old man, all Indian!”
Subdued the Virago.
While Spurgeon was still u boy
preacher he was warned about a cer
tain virago and told that she intended
to give him a tongue lashing. “All
right,” he replied, "but that’s a game
at which two can play.” Not long
after us he passed her gate one morn
ing she assailed him with a flood of
billingsgate.
He smiled and said, "Yes, thank you,
I am unite well. I hope you are the
same.”
Then came another hurst of vitupera
tion pitched In a still higher key, to
which lie replied, still smiling: “Yes,
it does look rather as If it is going to
rain. I think I had better he getting
on!”
“Bless the man!” she exclaimed.
“He’s us deaf us a post. What’s the
use of storming at him?” and so her
ravings ceased and were never again
attempted.
Conserve tho Rights of All.
Thus far municipal government In
lids country has not been a success,
anil one of the duties, one of the bur
dens, of the generation now coming on
to assume the responsibilities of citi
zenship 1h the cleansing of the Augean
stables of municipal corruption and
the uplifting of the tone of state legis
lators, so tiiut while the Interests of
tne public Bhall be sacredly p-.e erved
the rights and the reasonable profits
of the corporations enjoying public
franchises shall be carefully and im
partially protected and maintained, —
Hon. William 11. Taft.
Two Diverso Estimates.
The question of Installing a munici
pal lighting plant ut Hancock, Mich.,
has been laid at rest for live years at
least, a oontract for that period having
been made by an utmost uaunimou*
vote <>f the aldermen. Tliii mnrtor has
boon under discussion t w some time,
and an estimate of the cost of a plant
was obtained from an engineer. T ihe
amount of this e*Kl:aa-te. sls MX), seem
ed so low that one of the aUlennen got
another estimate from an oiitlrcly dis
interested engineer, who*figured that
the cost would be $33,000.
Intsrsst Goes Right Along.
In ISOS Greenwood. S. C.. issued 5
per cent Ixiads to the amount of $37,-
358 for a wutor and light plant. The
last report available shows that none
of the bonds has been paid, but the
generating plant has been shut down,
as It was found to bo cheaper to buy
current. A contract has been made
for ten years, at the end of which
period the plant will In all probability
l>e too antiquated for effective service,
so that It might as well be written off
the lxx>ks— but the interest on the
bonds keeps right on

Clerk Supr. Court nutta County
in the Flint, Circuit,
known heretofore to the civilized
world. Along these paths have been
stumbling blocks. Our opponents are
k dcrviy*lug to persuade us the cole
resjionslbillty for these stumbling
blocks rests upon our public service
system, to be remedied only by a
change oft system. This we deny. We
are patiently studying the ways of
justice. Municipalizes advocate ex
perimenting at enormous cost with
public funds, with the principles of lib
erty and with the institutions of our
country. In tills we stoutly refuse to
take part.
We are conservatives In believing
that it Is better to adhere f<> old and
tried methods based on our accepted
national principles, hut radicals In tho
determination to discover and to stern
ly rebuke and rectify any Injustice
which may have been developed by
the present system. As It has always
been the function and duty of govern
ment to Insure that Individuals Hhull
deal Justly with their fellows. It Is now
the function and duty of government
to protect the governed against injus
tice on the part 01 these associations of
individuals working under tho name
of public service corporations.
Any government that is too feeble or
corrupt to control with justice the con
duct of u public sendee corporation
bas little prospect of being able itself
to supply such public service with effi
ciency and Justice. Our duty is to
elect to office men who have the intel
ligence and Integrity to govern effi
ciently, honestly and Justly—men who
can and will curb the unjust aggres
siveness of the individual or of the vol
untary association of Individuals and
who can uml will compel each to bear
Its share of the burdens of government
and give In price, service or otherwise
a proper consideration for special
privileges enjoyed.
Our nation Is what It Is Industrially
and commercially and In world politics
because of the American character, de
veloped by the most absolute individu
alism, and because of tho American
corporation, developed under a govern
ment that governed, hut did not trade.
Our duty Is to conserve the human
agencies that have made our country
what It Is—the adventurous individual
and voluntary association—but not to
lot them be our musters. This is the
confession of faith of the autlmunici
pallzer, the nntl-Soeiullst. t
Value of Advertising.
A Kansas man is convinced that
vertlslng pays. lie advertised for a'
lost five dollar bill, and a stranger/
who had picked up a five dollar bill
on the streets, read the advertisement
and restored the hill to the advertiser.
A few‘days later while looking over
a vest he had laid off the original lost
bill was found in a pocket. Ho says
advertising pays 100 per cent-—Utica
