The question is, how can the nec-

minds of the people,and kept there. AS
much of such a currency as would be re-
Iquirsd 70 pay dues 70 . the government
would be maintai ned at its face value,
but it IS serious question whether
distrust-so common to mankind in
financial matters-would not at once
seize the commercial world and de-
preciate and debase such a money.

And this brings us to another prop

dustries of the country that the whole

to designate as Che circulating medium
would undoubtedly be maintained at
a fixed value. 5 T -s<!' s>..

A bill introduced in the Michigan leg

A bill introduced in the Michigan leg.
islature for the punishment of drunken.
ness, called a "jag bill," passed both
houses and has been signed by the Gov
ernor. The new law provides that a
person arrested for drunkenness shall
give bond in the sum of 500 to appear
before the magistrate or police judge in
sixty days from date of bond and show
cause why he has not taken the "Gold
Cure" for thirty days, and failing to
have taken the cure he shall forfeit the
bond. If he is unable to take the cure
on account of poverty then the county
must pay for his treatment, to the ex.
tent not to exceed S75. This may prove
to be righteous enactment when it is
once properly tried and made effective
by safe provisions. 1t treats habitual
drunkenness as disease and seeks to
cure that disease by the only effective
way known among the profession of
medical men. Let it have a fair trial
and may it prove boom to many fam
lily who are cursed with a member
whose only sin seems to be caused by
disease produced from long continued
use of the Intoxicating cup.

With wheat lower than at any time

haven't much to say of any benefit done

Cleveland and Democratic Congress.

had there been no change, for then
there would have been no uncertainty

consequent depression in business.

1t is a gratifying fact that the Amer.
lean people SO thoroughly condemn the
action of Gov. Atgeld in pardoning the
socialistic murderers. The pardon was
unjustifable on any ground. If the
Governor had gone through the peniten.
tiary, considering every Gaze one by one,
he could not have found as many others
in all the thousands as undeserving of
pardon as these socialists, whose red
hands were imbued in the basest treason
and most deliberate murder. They h ad
doubly earned capital punishment and
should, at least, have been compelled to
suffer the imprisonment to which their
sentences were commuted. AS they
have been allowed to walk forth scott
free with the smile of Gov. Atgeld's ap.
proval, in the name of all that's fair and
just, the doors of every. prison in Illi-
inois ought to be thrown wide open and
all the inmates hidden to come forth to
the full enjoyment of liberty. There
are none more unworthy of freedom
than the murderous bomb fends who
have been turned out upon the com.
munity. Such is the price Illinois pays
in outrage and humiliation for the priv
iiege of Democratic Governor. Only
for that misfortune, no one but Gabriel
would have called the anarchists from
the Joliet pen.

WHAT ABOUT LIGHT?
Who's Going to illuminate Our City
for The Glory of 1t?

The Gas and Electric, Works in
this city have not been paving Yet,
the people have been getting excellent
illumination The cost of fuel and man.
agement has been reasonable. There is
no evidence of dishonesty or incompe.
tency. The necessary expenses are
simply beyond the income at present
prices. 1t is hardly likely that any body
could run the establishment proftably
| without considerable increase in
charge to consumers. This might mean
a corresponding decrease in patronage.
1t is true, the power OF the electric light
and the quality of the gas might be re-
duced, thus etfecting considerable
saving. But these things are not what
the people of Hillsboro want. In view
of the fact that the public spirited pro.
jectors Of this enterprise have lost
money in administering to the public
needs, it is hardly supposeable that the
business will be long conducted on that
basis. The city's contract for light will
run out in November. It will then
have to pay more for its illumination,
60 without, or resort to some wretched
gasoline expedient, more costly in the
outcome. 1t now costs the city about
$4,500 per year for the system of street
lighting we enjoy. Next year We may
reasonably expect to be charged, say,
$1,000, if indeed, we can get the service
at all. In the present condition of the
company's affairs it can not be expected
to continue business at loss. Neither
can any other set of individuals be ex.
pected to take the yoke upon them.
There is way, however, it seems to
us, in which the difficulty may be hap.
PLY solved. The city is about to erect
a water works plant. Let it buy the
Gas and Electric Works, paying there.
for reasonable price. 1t would not be
fair to take any advantage of those who
have already suffered in their endeavors
to do the right thing by the people.
Neither would it be proper from a bus.
mess standpoint to pay an exorbitant
price for the plant. 1t should be fairly
valued and taken at about its actual
worth.
The city can easily provide an abund.
ance of power at small cost in connec.
ton with its pumping service. One set
OF engineers, managers, accounta nts,
&C., could attend the entire busin ess.
In this way the city OF Portsmouth, O.,
is enabled to light its streets at cost of
about $40 per lamp per annum. And
this, without any revenue from private |
sources, as that patronage is all left to a
private corporation known as the Gas
and Electric Company.
Presuming that we have to pay $4,000
or street lights, it would not take many
years at that rate to pay for the works,
which, with the reduced cost of operating.
night be made source of revenue to
he city.
OF course, much depends upon the
management of such municipal enter.
'rises. But, in small cities, as a rule,
corrupt methods do not prevail and
uch matters are judiciously managed.
-ncompetency or jobbery is quickly
at the hands of the people.
From the present outlook it seems the
pest way out of the coming Gas and
Electric light dilema would be to secure
he plant under municipal ownership.
