MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP VERSUS
SOCIALISM
"Concerning Municipal Ownership"
j will not agree that there la a wide
dtffcrenc, between inunleipal owner
1. hip of municipal utilities and aoelal
j lam. Replying to a recent article on
! that subject In The Herald it says:
The Augusta, On,. Herald ob
jeet* to our characterisation of
municipal ownership a« incipient
i orlallam. The Korlallata of Eng
land ar,. clearer-headed In a
bmik recently published by them
the author, V p. Henson, says:
The Hue of least resistance to
ward:- collective ownership Is by
mean- of municipalization and na
tionalisation, and we find tills
form of communal ownership Is
growing fast throughout th e na
tion."
The editor of T he Herald Is op
posed to socialism; yet he and
many other writers arc uncon
sciously rendering to socialism
lb" greatest of all services, that
of blinding th,. people to Its In
sldlous attacks upon our limtltu- j
lions. The Creeks finally over
threw Troy by getting the Tro
jans to lake Into the city a
wooden horse. In which rome of
the bravest Creekh were concent
cd Municipal ownership Is the
wooden horse by means of which
the socialists hope to compass the
overthrow of our democratic In
stitution*.
It Is the mission of "Concerning '
Municipal Ownership” to nrevent this I
Idea from growing In public favor, and
It Is the mission ol The Herald, edl- j
torlally, hy discussion to aid In the
appreciation of truth. Truth and
right are the same and as It Is un
questionably right that municipalities
should own the public utilities they
require. It m not possible that these
two advocates of opposites should
ever agree Nor is this necessary. It I
Is discussion of questions thSt will
eventually develop the truth, when It j
Is not clearly undcrstoodshence these |
disillusions, If carried on without hit- 1
terncsH, are good.
Municipal utilities are Instituted
and operated because they are neces
sary to modern municipal life. Tho
various municipalities must Institute
them If nobody else does, and this
they Invariably do We find that of
these utilities some are Instituted and
operated hy the municipalities and
some by private corporal lona. Why
Is this?
Simply because private corporations
will not do It unless there Is money
In II for them; and this Is all right
A private cor|ioratlon has no other
Interest In th,. business Foreign cap
ItmlintH form a corporation to operate,
say an electric railway system, In a
city, not because they feei the need
of It for themselves or primarily de
sin In promote the Interests of I bat
cltv but because they see In It an op
port unity for profitable Investment.
Hence It is that private corporations
do in>t lay sidewalks, or construct
health si wers or provide municipal
utilities of this class. And for the
- line reason also they do not Insti
tute electric lighting plants, etc.. In
smaller towns, which offer little or
no profit upon urh an Investments
They will Invest only In public utili
ties In the larger cities upon which
there Is prospective profit.
This Is all right, so far as concerns
these corporations It Is a legitimate
business upon which thus,, who In
vest In It have the right to expect to
make a profit And this they almost
Invariably do. To the extent of this
profit they are levying tribute 141011
that city. This the municipality
would save by owning and eperatlng
Its own plAnt. Then' are other rea
son* why municipalities should own
and operate all their public utilities
but this one Is enough 10 establish the
contention that municipal utilities
should bp owned by the respective
municipalities Ami It is but a ipies
lion of time when this will be the
Municipal ownership Is not social
Ism tier a step In that direction It
Is true that aoelallsm contemplates

clalism would not only do away with
the ownership ot a street rat.way by ,
a private corporation, but It would j
place Its operation, the regulation ol j

men who ran the cars. This shows
the difference between municipal own

THE DRINKING GOURD
Mr Bryan Is made the recipien- of i
all kinds of presents from admiring -
partisans. They run (he wide gamut!
from live trick mules to dead rah
bit's feet. They are presented as
tokens of esteem and well wishes In
'his race, and If the donors expect to
I be remembered In the distribution of
; pie this is rather to be implied than
expressed. Mr. Bryan is receiving
enough of this kind of present* to
stock a big museum.
Among thoae recently received is j
a drinking gourd, of peculiar shape !
To this novelty Mr. Bryan has taken
quite a fancy, and it Is to he put
through the regular process for tnak 1
Ing II a drinking vessel. As such It !
Is to be used In the Bryan home, as .
a great novelty, and visitors to Fair- ,
view will probably be treated to a
drink out of the gourd, which will
constitute It a sort of a campaign
loving cup. Who knows but what
quaffing the pure water from this
gourd will Inspire those who drink
from It with the spirit of victory! At
and rate, they will have had the most
pleasant drink that may be given to
thirsty man.
In deathlesa verse the excellencies
of the old oaken bucket has been
sung. It, was well, for the old oaken
bucket deserved it, and It Is fast pass
ing away. Nobody has yet been In
spired by tho muse to sing of the old
gourd; yet no less than the old oaken
bucket In the old gourd worthy of it.
It too. Is passing away. Our section of
the country Is the favored home of
the gourd. Nowhere else do they
grow to greater perfection than here.
In the olden times they were general
ly grown, and there were gourds In
every house. Now, alas, a gourd Is
i rarely found
The glass goblet Is now the proper
drinking utensil, besble the water
cooler. The coconut or shining tin
dipper hss taken Its place on top of
the brass bound cedar bucket. And
beside the spring, wherh something
| more valuable or ornate cannot be
kept, an old tomato can is made to
do servlet' Th« good old gourd Is
discarded, lost In the shuffle of tho
march of progress which esteems
nothing that hasn't been bought in n
store. and only in the homes of a
few old fogies here and there may
the old fashlonod drinking gourd be
found
And yet In the whole world there j
never was a drinking vessel thrl j
was fully Its equal. From the golden
chalice of the royal palace to the
shell used by barbarian Islanders
there was nothing to Impart a flavor
lo pure water 11s the gourd. Hitter in
Its growing stage, throwing off a
rank ordor that was far from agree
able. when fully ripened and flavored
hy the frost, subjected to a treat
ment of boiling and polishing It mad"
a drinking vessel which imparted
Just enough of Its peculiar virtue to
the water to make it moat satisfying
With the drinking gourd the other
uses to which gourds were put have
disappeared. Only as a relic of the
i past could now be found tho powder
or shot gourd, which formed a part
of every old hunter's outfit. Only
by (Hiking with some good old grand
mother can one now lesrn of the soap
gourd. In which ihe stock of family
, soft soap was kept In a corner of
; the smoke house. The great gourds
that were used as family wash tubs
ihe gourds that were used as weavll
■ proof receptacle* for seed, Ihe long
handled gourd that reached down In
to the spring, and the tiny gourd that
served as a baby * rattler, all have
disappeared A gourd vine has be
come a curiosity The many uses to
w hich Its products were put must now
all he filled by store bought goc's,
the best of which are Inferior to
those supplied by nature from the
gourd vine
Clone are those good old times, and
the loss most to be regretted is tie
old fashioned drinking guard, whirl*
doubled the cxcelfc-nco of water
drank out of It. For truly, to know
and experience Ihe most satlsfyln
as well as the most pleasant sod
healthful drink In ihe world. It tnvst
be a drink of water fresh from Un
well or spring, drank out of a
gourd
THE TAX ON NEAR BEER.

the state government. Yet. with this
knowledge before them, the legisla
'ure recklessly added to the state's
expense, doubliiq the already heavy
pension burden at one clip, and mak
ing other like 1 r.kless expense ac
counts In large number. Hence the
necessity ex pet- tor raising moo
money by i.ixation without increasrr.g
the tax rate. And by putting a spec
ial tax on something seems about the
only way jhis could be done.
But why should near l-eer have been
tingled out for this tax? Why, if it
had become necessary y raise by
new t'T-.-itlon the amount that this
lax on near brer was expected to
yield, v.as not the burden divided
among all the soli drinks? There aro
many such sold. All of them are palat
abb -to some palates. All of User,:
arc refreshing—or believed to be so.
Marry of them arc entirely harmless
—except to the boys who have to
stand treats for thirsty git Ib. But
some of them are believed to be more
or less Injurious Certainly some of
them are more injurious than near
beer.
Near-beer Is Che *?ang nan"- given
to a beverage made In Imitation of
beer. It resembles the real stuff In
looks, In taste and other qualities, it
differs from real beer only in Its non
Intoxicating quality, containing a per
centage of alcohol so binall as to be
held non-intoxicating by the authori
ties. it |s a beverage which may be
lawfully sold, as any Other none-ln
toxlcating drink, under the severest
constnw-jyon of our drastic prohibi
tion law Why, then, should this ono
beverage be singled out, from among
the whole long list of popular bever
ages, to bear a lax almost equal in
weight to that put by Ihe state upon
the straight product ot the still in
ante-prohibiiion days?
And the near-beer tax law goes
even further than that. It does not
allow pro-rating. The license tax
must 0" paid for «n entire year even
It only used lor a part of the year.
The law imposing the tax was on'y
recently passed, and it was made op
erative at once, although January 1
la the day set for its regular fiscal be
ginning. This means that In order to
legally sell near-beer for the remaind
er of this year, four mo.rths, the dis
penser must pay a full year's tax, or
at the rate of J6OO per annum, near
ly as much as the entire state and
municipal taxes on regular old red j
eye before this prohibition wave j
broke loose. And under all this
j cstoundlngly heavy tax on near-beer I
j other beverages, some of them more
[ harmful, escape lax free.
Why Is It? Can It be for any other
reason than the name? Qur people
are prohibition mad. The bare name
of liquor or bc-ar exerts an influence
upon them llko the waving of a red
lag In ihe fact- of ft mad buh. With
out reasoning they are ready to rush
to any extreme, not stopping at the
palpably absurd, to vent their raga
against the object of their hatred.
But there Is nolhing to he done but
to grin and bear it. Popular feeling
is given to this sort of emotion. The
old Puritans carried It to the point
of burning witches, under which
worthy old ladles were consigned to
most cruel death -in the accusation of
Ignorance or personal spite. But
these crazes run their course and rea
son Is restored. They do not now
burn witches In Massachusetts. The i
descendants of tho old Puritans are
i ashamed of this record made by their j
lathers. And so will it be in Georgia.

“Four Hundred”
UN AUGUSTA ?
If you could mak* a list, in this city, of the four hundred peo
ple who make the most effective uses of the want ads., you would
have a list of the most alert, thrifty, practical, up-to date, prosperous
people in town. No other test would so surely include the people
who have most to do with the practical things of the city's daily life
—who promote its activities—who boost and boom it—who create all
about them that optimism whioh makes for healthful activity in all
lines of buiness.
If YOU belong, already, to the city's “want ad. four hundred,”
you are prosperous, enthusiastic about life and the business of the
day, and are "making money.” You are in touch with all of the little
opportunities to “earn a dollar” (or a hundred dollars) which come
to the careful reader and answerer of the classified ads., and you
• turn naturally and quickly to the use of the small ads. whenever
you want anything, or have anything to sell.
As in New York society, the ”400” consists of at least a thous
and people, so, in this city, the “want ad. four hundred” may be
stretched into an indefinite number. Perhaps, if you “wake up”
promptly you may become the four hundred and first member of the
"want ad. 400.'
