The failure of the municipal gas plant
Of Philadelphia Il severe set back to the
champions OF municipal ownership. May
or Warwick in commenting upon the
failure, questions whe.ner it is wise for
any municipality to operate any manu-
featuring industry. The changes made
IN management and control make i'm
possible the continuance OF any definite
policy. He adds: ''No private business
could prosper under such system"
In the abstract, there are many public
necessities which should be under num-
cipal ownership. But they cannot be
economically managed. Private interest
must hold the purse from which comes
the means which run manufacturing es-
Adjustments. The watchfulness OF per-
sonal interest Is the only kind which will
stop leaks, prevent dishonesty and secure
good service. This is lacking in municl-
pal ownership.
The same thing is true o; institutions
controlled by multiplicity OF stockhold-
ers. Responsibility IS not close enough.
Duty to employers does not give the
same incentive to activity and care that
self interest does. In business matters
there Is not wisdom in a multitude of
counsel Such institutions always drift
into the hands of few either by assump-
ton OF power or ownership. The one man
power IS inevitable 10 everything and
there is nothing successful in which it ls
absent. Railroad corporations would
prove failures if their actions we're not
guided by one brain. Even associations
for self improvement or for the further
snce of good cause, each unconsciously
acknowledge master or else fails OF its
purpose.
No matter how indisposed person
may be to exercise absolute power, no
matter how lacking in executive ability,
il he be put IN position requiring action
and he resolves to do his duty, he domin-
ates everything. If he does not he fails.
When things move on smoothly there is
apparent division OF authority. When
any great need arises one MIND directs.
The directness of control and strong
personal guidance can never be had per-
manentlv in municipal matters. until
human nature undergoes change.

The democratic candidates for county

Carbon county, Wyoming began proceed
ing to secure possession of certificates of
election on the ground that 115 Firms,
who were unable to read the constitution

In this connection it might not be out of

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

There is only one way to cure dear-

this tube Is infamed you have a rum

when 1t is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, aud unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restor

will be destroyed forever: nine cases

The disposition to let it alone Is siren 9Th

the troubles of 1893 are still in existence,
while free silver also remains a menace to

The subjects for the debates are such
as are suggested by the work of the "a"
Class in school. When q subject arises
which causes differences of opinion it is
taken up in the debates OF the Literary

and critical thought is induced in the
pupils which cannot fail to be of benefit
TO them in future years.

Our state taxes are increasing at rate
which should cause some concern. There
Is no doubt that a portion of the 1ncreas
ed revenue which the state derives from
the people was spent legitimately and for
worthy purposes. But it is evident there
has been extravaganza and waste.
When the legislature met this year
there we're profuse promises OF retrench-
ment made. But it was all thunder in
the index as the large increase in our state
tax clearly demonstrates. The usual
practice of taking credit in advance was
INDUCED in. But there was no attempt
TO go beyond profession. And yet glance
over many OF the republican papers Of the
state while these good intentions we're
being made public, would indicate that
the work was just as we'll as done, and the
party might just as we'll begin to hug 1t
self because OF it's display of virtue.
Gov. Scotield has done many creditabte
little things during his administration.
Everyone was in the line of duty and to
omit doing them would De to incur de-
served censnre. But sycophancy seized
upon these little acts and magnified them
to suchan extent as to make it appear that
Gov. Scofeld is wonderful man. All
this time money was being expended at a
speDdthrift rats. 1t is not the purpose
Ia Ill I'll
spcnsible for this extravagaIce. While
he shonld have tried to prevent it and
probably could have done something to
check 1t, this is not the aspect of the
case deserving attention.
The fault lies in the people, who accept
promise for performance. The snowy,
catchy little things of merit public Off
cial does are received with such bursts OF
popular approval that real interests are
snbordinated to these. Every veto by
Gov. Scofeld of "a bill which it 1T passed
would be bad law, was hailed as Won
derful performance and enthusiasm went
almost to the absurd limit of hosting
flags and decorating Windows IN his hon
or. And still he would be derelict in his
duty had he failed to interpose these We
toes.
The quiet, determined work in the in
terests Of reform is not bruited to the
public. When It's issue is shown in re-
suits, the results are accepted without
thanks to him by whom they are effected.
O'Connor's grim purpose which set sym
pathy aside 10 response to sense OF duty,
spared the people of the state the levy of
any state tax for one year. II it was not
for the novel sight Of young man fight
ing and routing the best legal talent of
the state, his splendid performance would
be as comparatively unknown as it's re-
suits nave been received without thanks,
Peoplewaut show not solidity Public Off
Gals are not slow in sensing the situation
and ordering their conduct in accordance

THERE would be satisfaction IN Cor
mans defeat If 1t could be ascribed to his
betrayal of the democratic party on the
occasion of the passage OF the Wilson
bill through the senate. But there Is
reason to believe it was the suspicion
that he was souno on the money question
rather than the knowledge of his treach
cry toward tariff reform, which brought
about defeat. The party under its pres

marshes and is doing many peculiar
things.
