4 LECTURE on LOCAL sELF-GoyEnNMENT.
Il meeting Of tho Philosophical Society was
held In the cub-room Of the Palmer House last
night, the attendance beng very fair aud tue
discussions being both entertaining aud in
structive. The question discussed was. - Does
Locul Seif-Governneut Result IN the Lest Gov
crnmen1?" In tho first place, Mr. L. l..
Bond rtnd Il paper on the question. which
WIS only claimed u be suggestive. Rather than
US finished essay Or logical argument
Mr.. Hond believed that lucal scit-goyernnent
resulted III the utst government because It was
the most natural, because 1t fostercd Ind Gu
couraEed individual frcedom and character, be-
cuuse it developed Self-relluuct. oec tu5e 1t WaS
an educator Of tue people, and BECAUSE 1t raised
the average Crude Of intelligence and
WIS va the safest when t,,t -, nan ro helped
he had more confidence In it uIld was not n1ratd
OF It: The same rule applied to 'he question of
they bccame Indifferent to the government or
an eneMy to ii, 81 that lteal sclf-guvernm:.nt
was safest for itself and for the people. Where
peop!e mud no voice III thcGoveriislen1 theysome-
times showed their entlIty toward II by throw
Ing bomus, but where tney did have voca iu it
they vented their dissatisfaction III passnE reso-
of any community better understood their own
needs thnn an outsider. II ireland had been
allowed Ia govern herself more she would not
NOW be involved III her present difficulties. AS
to the matter ut the Government absurbtnE the
railroads aud telegraph. Mr.. Boni Thought that
such move would result IL the deYradltiont'f t'f
from independent citizens and Businessmen to
tawnlus plnccseekers, and would have Il tend
ency to det!loralsze the peuple. This would suE-
gest the question rs to why politics becutne cor
rupted. This wus not tho fault ot the systenof
government but because 50 many citizens re-
uained i!ld,EerenI in the matter OF choosing Of
ficers. Tic man who did not vote only acknow!-
edged that he was sutisncl with things rs they
WERE.
Various criticisms followed the paper. It was
argued thi1t ucsI sc!s-sovernnent resulted In
too great extravaganza. aud that there was al
to general demoralization as WIS the cuse with
ancient l,nly aud rcece. On the whole. how
ever, 1t WAS agreed ttnt local self-governlnent,
AS exempl1ded iu this country. Resulted in .the
