John R. Shannon, Cabaniss, Ga. 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.

Carter, T. C. Butts Cos. 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 He Knew the Kind. A rr--.1l boy i. Boston was rebuked bv his father for swearing. “Who told you that Is. /oreasked the bad little },oy. ‘‘Oh, a little bird told me,” bald the father. The boy stood and looked out of the window at some sparrows which were chattering, ‘ i know who told you,” lie said. ‘lt wiu> one of those damn sparrows,” rate to cTutTgerT Tn *T7nvt*?, a city of 8,000 inhabitants, as lu Zurich, with 150,000 inhabitants.

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 ITess.
