Hn Slndled th Question.
Edward Everett Hale once said that
he could eoe no reason why the people
ht city or a elate or a nation should
not do for themselves throtifc-b their
KevernmeDt anything which seemed to
tbelr advantage. The Amrrlcan people
pave an old tradition, which might be
tailed a anp'irNtition, that the lent gov
crnuicnt la that which govern the
hast Tbi la trne ao far ha it refer to
repression or pollclna; or force, but
there la mother function of govern
ment, the aervlce fnnctlon, the leader
iblp and nanaKuint of Industrial
business, ffl which the best government
I that which dot the wont. When we
want good road, we do not depend np
m each indivldnal making or keeping
up hie) own indivldnal frontage. When
we want at red a tr fire protection or
public school or parka, we provide
tbetu by taiatlnn and we manage tbem
through the official that we elect i
political tody. It la Important to re
member the difference between the po
lice power and the indaitrlal or service
inaction. Jn the aopply of poatal facil
It lee, fire protection, bank and insur
ance fnpervixlon, water anpply, ednca
kon and hospital there la no dicpoel
lion to go back to the old way of de
fending on private capital and manage
incnt, If our experience In those tbluga
that wa have already tried la reason
bbly satisfactory, then we ahonld be
trudy. to take np any other service that
eectiii inviting, All the no called jieblio
utilities have tbe lame good reason In
favor of pnblio ownership and manage
iutht that apply to thoae already ao
Wnd acted.
j The grave political danger that we
are facing, especially in municipal gov
ernment, arise, mainly from tbe private
ownership of pnblio ntllitii Tbe fran
irhia valnee of etreet railroad and
kiirfjting amount to an enormon anm.
Tbey are dependent npon mnniclpal
Ib-glslstion, not only In granting them,
font in protecting them from adverse
pcgUlation, , With eo large a corrnption
fund it goea without saying that some
legislator Vtll be tempted. The aort of
itnen that ate willing to be bribed will
keek tbe ofllren. Koneit men in office,
finding tbeiuRilve overrnled, will tay
pnt of office, Tbe inevitable result I
Shown in the average 'character of oar
tanniclpal administration. Publicly
conducted aervlce are more economical
than tboee in private hand. They are
done on a larger acule. There it no
effort to make a speculative value for
tbe property. '
l Home yeara ago tbe aprlnkling of fit.
Ion la atreeta wa done by private con
tract, Borne frontage wonld subscribe,
tfcert not. Vacant lota and crot
street were left nneprlnkled. The air
wa laden with dnit. An ordinance
wa paaaed providing for aprlnkling by
general contract and a teeming tbe coat
On abutting property. Tbe result ha
been that we got rid of all dott and tbe
coat to those wbo formerly anbacribed
baa been leaa than balf. Ht. Lonl ha
always owned it waterworks Tbe
rat have been aa low aa tboae charged
by private cotnpanlea in other place.
Out of theie rate we have built new
and enlarged work aeveral time, nntll
bow the value I at leant $30,000,000.
All of tbla value ha been made out of
tbe profit of tbe bnxineH which other
wine would have gone to private own
jtra. It i commonly believed that it
costs tbe gavernuiKUt mure to t'ormtrnrt
work and operate them than private
proprietor. Eiprience prove other
wise, The contract for building new
watrworka at Bt. Louie have each
time been taken ao low that the con
traitor were bankrupted. Tbe govern
Snent are al way favored cnatcuier and
ninally get lower pricea than the Urgent
private bnyere.
In Ht. Louis there baa never been any
acandal or corruption in connection with
tbe poHUly owned work stub a the
Jwater anpply, park, hospital, fire tie
pertinent, atreeta and eewer. llut ita
privately owned work, ancb a gaa,
electric lighting and tbe trt railways,
bave tetn r ending source uf cor
ruption end scauilal. Tbey bave been
the force that bave controlled local
)Hilitiea, Tbey have debauched the mu
nicipal administration. In the manage
ment of tbe pnblio ichiMik that part
wblth ia actually uin4 by the pnb
lie servant baa tern well done and free
from scandal. That part which baa been
let out la private toutrarbira bat been
badly dune, rii nW and corrupt,

yond ell her rival. Her profit from
street railway now amount to over
140,000a year after paying interest on
tbe investment,, giving aborter- hour
and la-tter wage to the employee and
carrying 40 per cent of the paHnenger
for a 1 cent furo,
' Iiirmlngbam ha followed closely In
tbe wake of (llflagow. The new munici
pal policy wa inaugurated 27 year
ago by Mr. Chamberlain, tbe present
leading Engliith statesman. Under Mr.
Chamberlain's leadership the water
work and gasworks were bought,
Thy have been greatly improved, rate
lowered tud yet bave proved highly
profitable. About 60 acre of tbe worst
centrul part of Birmingham waa con
demned and paid for and tho old rook
eries torn down. Fine modern atreeta
were laid out and the land leased for
70 yeara to private partlea wbo con
tracted to erect first clase building.
Tho ground rent la paying interest on
the Investment and creating a ainklng
fnnd which at tbe end of tbe 70 yeara'
lease will retire tbe original bond insoe.
Les than 00 year from now Birming
ham will be tbe owner of abont W)
acre of the most valuable part of the
city, covered with fint cl building,
tbe net income from which will be ao
great at to relieve tbe city from any
other taxation if it ao chooaes,
i Throughout England the policy of
Glasgow and Birmingham i being
rapidly adopted. Not only water and
light are passing Into monlcl pal owner
ship, but street car and other public
service aa well. Municipal administra
tion In England la conspicuous for it
ability, It honesty and tbe honor at
tached to the service. Mo better reason
can be assigned for tbla remarkable fact
than the absence of private franchise
and the Importance of the service to
be performed. London ha for ten yeara
been nnder tbe control of tbe Progress
ive or Fabian party. It baa also made
great stride in tbe direction of public
ownership. In that part of London ly
ing sooth of the Tbamce river tbe street
cara are operated a well aa owned by
the city. Tboae on the north side are
owned, bnt leased for short period to
private operators. London has found
great economy in doing all it public
work by direct employment instead of
contracting it out. Recently the engl
aoer' estimate of work to be done in
the immediate future amounted to near
ly $11,000,000. It will be done nnder
tbe supervision of tbe work depart
ment, y ' 1
In this country there I increased
agitation for public ownership.
The ownership of the telegraph bee
been urged by postmaster general for
over 20 years, especially by Mr. Wana
maker, In tbe lust congress an appro
priation wa being made for tbe con
struction of additional armored ships,
Tbe price of armor plate named by tbe
American mill wa regarded a ex
orbitant. Provision wa introduced in
tbe bill by which $3,000,000 wa appro
priated for the bnllding of an armor
plate mill in tbe event that the private
mill did not make a satisfactory price.
Tbi amendment wa passed in one
bouse by a large majority, though after
ward sidetracked by another amend
ment. Uad this passed into a law it
wonld bave started the government into
tbe industrial field in aelf protection
against monopoly, It wonld have in
augurated the remedy and tbe only
remedy for trust. An impartial exami
nation of the facta will show that tbe
government can get capable men at mod
erate salaries to conduct business of any
kind, quite as well a tbey can be con
ducted by other men for private profit.
It will show also that our political in
stitutions, no less than tbe comfort and
safety of the mas of the people, are
endangered by the private ownership of
public utilities or of tbe consolidated
industrlea. A permanent, well ordered
civil aervlce and public ownership ithe
only wy out. N. O. Nelson in State'

slavery will be its doom. How can it
be destroyed? Men won't do it volun
tarily. Bee what reformers have accom
plished. Tbe Greenback party, tbe Un
ion labor party, the Populist party, all
tried a hurd a they could to bring re
form, and monopoly is tenfold stronger
today than it ever was,
Here is another job for ProviJence.
If monopoly Is not destroyed, freedom,
liberty, republican form of govern
ment and Christianity itself are fail
ures, But Mammon worship will be
destroyed ; monopoly will perish a aure
a the "Lord rlgn."
Judging from the past, tbe Republic
an party, which now control the gov
eminent, I finishing it work. It ca
reer is about run. "Prido goetb before
destruction and haughty apirit before a
fall" A the Democratic party, which
wa all powerful in 1800, came to grief
in it effort at the expansion of Mam
mon worship, so this imperial expan
sion policy of tbe Republican party
will be it overthrow, I think,
Now i the time for the wealth pro
ducer to unite a never before. "Come
np to help of the Lord. Bpeak to tbe
children of Israel that they go for
ward." The election in 1900 will de
cide the fate of tbU'repobllc. If reform
era divide and wrangle and fail to take
the old ship of atate, a tbey can if
tbey unite, then we may expect a mon
archy to be established over u. Oar
only bop is, "The Lord relgneth."
