II has been the universal testimony that
private ownership OF water works has re-
suited either as absolute failure or oppres.
sion-frequently both. The conflict Of
public and private interests have caused
the failures, and that conflict has been the
result of either failure on the part OF com.
panles to keep their promises or In excess
sive water rates; and II cannot be main.
tained for an instant that any private com.
pany has ever furnished water as cheaply
city can supply II to itself.
While we cannot, and do not, question
the good faith of the s, o. Water Works
Co., yet "there's many slip" &C., and
there is no reason to believe these gentle.
men will be able 10 steer clear OF the many
rocks upon which have been wrecked other
like companies composed of men equally
as Observation-Disclosures themselves; or that
Ottawa will escape the penalties that fol-
lowed such gift In Joliet, Galesburg and
numberless other cities In this and other
States.
Ottawa can we'll afford TO walt II she
must even from five or ten years before she
builds her own water works, rather than
give away her natural rights and run the
risk of years of litigation in order recover
them should the company fail, as others
equally faithful have failed, TO keep their
promises.
AT the very least, II she is determined to
give away her liberty let her sell 1t to the
highest bidder. There is no reason why
Judge Cation and others should be refused
franchise which is to be given to another
body of persons. Neither should haze it,
But If Ottawa should be fool enough to
give this franchise away, let her officers
have at least the decency to to get sOmeth-
ing for IL.
Refuse both--or, as the lesser evil, sell
the franchise to the highest bidder.

st, Xavier's Academy.

The Goth commencement was held yester-
day morning at st. Francis Xavier's Acade-
my. An excellent programme was present
ed, consisting of vocal and instrumental
music and recitations, etc. Miss May
Moran and Annie Finn were the only grad
yates. The first on the programme was q
welcome chorus and was participated in by
all the pupils. The salutatory BY Miss
Moran was very fine. and was well deliv'
cred and received with much applause. A
vocal solo by Miss Mary Dralls was very
well rendered. Faith and Reason was the
subject selected by Lizzie Sinnott, which
she handled in creditable manner. The

WATER WORKS AGAIN.

At the next Cor at a near meeting of the
City Council there will be submitted to
that body, another water works ordinance,
giving a franchise for building water works
to private corporation.
As this paper said, when the Cation
people were asking for similar privilege,
the FREE TRADER has not word of OBJ
lection to urge or of disrespect to utter
touching the men who ask for this very
valuable franchise. They are honest, hon.
orable bushes men, residents of the city
and identified with Its property interests
In every way. No objection can be urged
on the score of the personnel of the South
Ottawa Water Works Company.
But the FREE TRADER now, as then, in
sists on principle, and In the interests Of
the people, now, and for the future, that
the passage of that ordinance would be
wrong and an unjusti6able injury to the
people. The proposition is plain
The acater supply Of a city is a natural
monopoly.
1t has come to be an axiom among all
good citizens that no man, or men, should
be given, as a private property, the abso,
lutte control of monopoly. A monopoly
for the sale of sugar or flour In this city
would be as legitimate and harmless gift
to a private corporation as the gift of the
monopoly of the sale of ws,er-a necessary
of life to an even greater degree than
either of the others.
Private ownership of water works, fur
Their, would result In an ENHANCEMENT of
public and private interests that would, In
Ottawa,-as 1t has everywhere else In the
world-result In endless clashing of inter-
ests, discord and completely In administra-
tlon.
Ottawa men are no better than the men
of other cities who have secured similar
franchises. No other city has yet been
ablelescape the evils of private ownership
Of this franchise; nor will Ottawa. This
fact is beyond question: The terrible cor.
ruption In city administration dates from
the rise of private corporations In control
of natural monopolies; AMI when they are
abolished, the chief cause Of that corrup
ton will be removed and not before. They
never can be removed from city politics;

II was repeatedly shown during the late
canvass that on all those goods In which
labor is the chief cost rather than raw ma
terials, Americans can meet the lowest
price In the world, because of the greater
efficiency Of the American labor; but that,
In the contrary, where the raw material
is the chief factor OF cost, Americans can
not compete with the foreigners. Ergo.
To give the American laborer the control
of the worlds markets, gice him free ra~
materials. Give him these, and In spite of
all tariffs, home and foreign, he will die
tate to the world.

lsernhard,'s Late Husband,

lie was known in European theatrical
circles as Daria, and, it is said, claimed
to DC count. AS he was born in Greece,
where there are no titles except official
ones, and in the royal family, he had no
birthrigAt to one. He has often been re-
fcrred to as a diplomat. His diplomatic
experience was not very extensive. He
was once connected with the Greek con-
sulate for few days through an acci-
dent. His real vocation was that of a
commercial traveller. The elder Damala
was trader in raw silk, having house
III Syria. and the son is said to have been
unusually successful in disposing of the
fathers wares. 1t is even said that he
had no right to his high sounding name
that he assumed "Aristides" for his
own satisfaction, and that he was chris
tened as only Jacques"
Damala was fond of gambling, and
swarm Of creditors is believed to have
hurried his marriage and to have fol-
lowed him unrelentingly until he left for
barcelona. He was once mixed up in a
gambling case with Lambri Pasha, but
his friends say that he was never black
leg. vt the timo of his marriage with
Berlhardt nobody seemed to know
whether his first wife was dead or not.
Burlns the time he played with Bern
hardt he did all he could, it is said, to
excite her jealousy. When she was on
the stage and he was in the wings he
used to tiirt abominably with Mile. Lima
Maute. This was in Italy, where Bern
hardt had frequent fainting fits on the
| stage.-Exchauge.

Alec who felt awf,llly funny that day.
Some years later another smart Alec

promenading around on the muddy bot

making the neiGhhorhood highly un-
