The citizens of Jefferson City, Missouri,

The citizens of Jefferson City, Missouri,
are disturbed over proposition to re-
move the seat of the State government
from that place to Sedalia, which is
said to have been DESTROYS of securing it
for the last twenty years. Bills have
been introduced in both branches of the
legislature authorizing the removal, and
it is SAID that a Chicago syndicate has
secured an option on ten thousand
acres of land at Sedalia, and will fight
hard to have the new Capitol erected in
that city. This is significant report
if it is true, and speaker Russell of the
House of Representatives is given as the
authority for it. When Chicago syndi-
cate takes hold of scheme Of. this kind
it is pretty likely to go, and the only
hope for the unfortunate citizens of
Jefferson City is to interest St. Louis in
the matter. Perhaps the old time rivalry
between the Missouri metropolis and its
more successful neighbor on Lake Michi-
gan could be employed very proftably
at this juncture.

percentage of it's taxable property for its
support, if they SO choose.

others interested at it's appraised value.

Division of Cape Elizabeth.
To the Editor of the Press:

The proposed division of the town OF
Cape Elizabeth seems to meet with great
oppos ton by the people in the villages,
so much so as to cause them to appoint
committee to choose another commit
tee to present their case to the legisla-
ture in protest against division.
Now the question arises, what are
their reasons for so doing? In answer to
the question I can see but one, and that
is the selfish desire to continue to burden
the farming community with an equal
share in the expenses necessary to meet
the requirements of their peculiar loca-
tions the same as has been the usual
custom.
Any disinterested person can judge
whether the petition Tor division is just,
and cannot be surprised that the farmers
should make an effort to rid themselves
of the unjust burden, when they take
into consideration The fact that between
seventeen and eighteen Thousand dollars
are paid in taxes by these farmers yearly.
The same percentage of the sum is APP
propriated to paying for improvem ents
and conveniences in the villages. as is
paid by The people who are benefited by
them. while not one cent of benefit di-
rectIy or indirectly helps the farmers or
ever can.
The introduction of Sebago water we
all know was absolutely necessary and
every farmer in the town is pledged to
the fuifilment of the contrast to the end
of the term and obliged to pay as high a
tax per Thousand on his property for its
support, as those who enjoy its conven-
fences, yet there is not one solitary indi-
vidual within the limit Of the territory
to the south of the proposed line who
can ever derive a cents benefit from it.
The people of the village pay but one
half the rate Of insurance that the farm
ers pay I merely mention the introduce
tion of water as one means of showing
the inequalities of the burden of taxa
ton, not with the hope OF redress, as
that matter has past into history except
ing the fulfillment of the contract which
no one wishes to evade.
A careful inspection of the town re-
ports for the past twelve or fifteen
years is sufficient evidence to prove the
unequal burden of taxation, by the fire.
quent large appropriation for purposes
from which the farmers Lave not, ard
never can receive any benefit. This fact
should be sufficient to enlighten any
one. possessed of reasoning faculties ;,
why the farmers show SO little enthusi-
asm when any new scheme or project is
brought up to boom the villages.
There is no one to the south of the line
of division who is not willing for the
villages to have all the privileges they
think necessary but they are exceedingly
unwilling to contribute large sums of
money for such purposes when they
know at the start they will receive no
equivalent at present or in the future.
l very much doubt if one tax payer can

Ex-Gov. Waite of Colorado, seems to
have learned something since he has
been travelling about the country. A
while ago he appeared to be of the opin-
ion that the country was on the eve of
a revolution which nothing but free
silver coinage could avert. But stay
of some weeks in Illinois and the Cen
trail West has convinced him that the
people generally don't care snap about
silver and have got thoroughly tired of
the Populist party. There are quite a
number of congressman who are still
thinking the way Waite used to think
who might be greatly improved by trip
over the country, and no doubt it would
pay the country to furnish them free
transportation if they would only CO.

PUBLIC CORPORATIONS AND THEIR
DUTIES.

The strike on the Brooklyn street car
lines has assumed new and interesting
phase by reason of a radical opinion de-
livered by Judge Gaynor. On account of
the strike the cars have not been run
ming on schedule time, and a Fulton
street store keeper made application to
Judge Gaynor for a mandamus to compel
the Brooklyn Heights Company to show
cause why the company should not run
charter. In giving his decision Judge
Gaynor expressed these radical opinions
as to the responsibilities and duties of
public corporations like street railroad
companies:
1t is my duty to declare the law of this
case. This railroad corporation is not in
the position of 81 mere private individual
or company carrying on business for
private gain, which may suspend bust
ness temporarily or permanently sat
pleasure. On the contrary it has dual
relation-a public relation to the people
of the State, and private one to stock
holders. 1t must not be forgotten here,
though it may seem to be growing dim
if not wholly forgotten elsewhere, that
in its chief aspec t it is a public cor
poration, having duties to perform to
the public which transcend any to it's
stock holders. 1t has received franchises
of great value from the State, and had
conferred upon it the States transcend
emit power of eminent domain. In return
it took upon itself the performance of
public duties and functions, in the per-
formanee of which it is in law and in
fact not an independent individual or
entirety, but the accountable agent of
the State. Though these principles are
old, and inherent in the idea of the
sovereignty of the people, it would seem
that in the recent rapid growth of cor
porate power, and of the tendency to use
public franchises for the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
of individuals first and for the service
and benefit of the public second, they
have come to be somewhat overlooked,
and need to he restated. They have often
been declared by the highest courts of
this State and Supreme Court of the
United States. The duty of the COM
pany now before the court is to carry
passengers through certain streets of
Brooklyn, and furnish i, man and run
cars enough to fully accommodate the
public. 1t may not lawfully cease to per
form that duty for even one hour. The
directors of private business company
may, actuated by private greed or mo-
tives of private gain, stop business and
refuse to employ labor at all unless
. labor comes down to their conditions,
however distressing; for such are the ex-
listing legal, industrial and social condi-
